Would you start Ryan Weathers tomorrow vs. the Pirates? They’ve been hot, though less vs. lefties, lately.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
Probably. It all depends on my other options.

In an NL if traded out of the league I lose them. Chances King or Alcantara get traded? Not specifically to AL , just traded.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:11
For now, I think the chances are low.
8:12
One note on trades, try to follow some of the most traded likely to be traded lists, especially if MLBTR has one. Generally, if a player is not on the list, they don't get traded.
Whaleman

E Valdez-cmon!! Walks, strikes out and hits bombs. Who’s taking notice?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
Anyone needing homers

Is Roupp capable of keeping his walks down (maybe below 3 bb/9)?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
I don't think so
Person

does Cole Young have what it takes to be a 25/10 bat at that park long-term, or is 18-20 HR more his upside still
Jeff Zimmerman
8:16
25 HR is a reasonable outcome.
8:17
He has 8 HR in June and July. The 1 HR in May is keeping down his total

Would you consider Tolle and Teoscar relatively even in value ROS? Average might be a lost cause at this point but could use  RBIs and have an offer on the table
Jeff Zimmerman
8:17
I might have Tolle higher, but it's so tough to know how your league is playing.
Scotty Mac
8:18
AL only, who are some under the radar SOLDS targets for the stretch run as I build a lead in K's and QS's?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:19
I don't have any under-the-radar guys. It's the same guys for me, good pitchers used in high-leverage spots.
8:20
NicklePickers
8:21
Do you trust the new k-bb stud Jordan Hicks or is he the same destroy-your-ratios Jordan Hicks of old?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:22
His 1.54 WHIP is doing as much ratio damage as a 5.75 ERA. Ignore
Greg Lane
8:22
Is Jackson Jobe someone to pick up or just monitor in a 16 team league? Could be a sneaky guy for the last two months to have.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:24
Maybe. I'm focusing on the guys coming back right now. Two I'd consider are Jordan Mongomery and Hayden Wesneski. Add, see if there is anything there, then dump if not and then add Jobe
Greg Pope
8:25
News on Palencia is mid-August at best, would you hold in a 15 teamer if desperate for saves?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:25
I'm moving on, I need the spot
BirdsFan
8:25
Tks for your time!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:25
np
Dan Kraft
8:26
Add Sewald or Grant Taylor?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:26
If they were available any of my leagues, I'd add both
LenFuego
8:27
You have any sleeper RPs that might become closers at the trade deadline, whether because they might get traded to a closer-hungry team or the closer on their team might get traded away, exposing them to 9th inning work?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:27
Morejon count?
8:28
That's it for this week. I hope everyone enjoyed the break.
