Cam Smith - 2nd half breakout?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
No, 30% K% since the break.
Lukas

How do you like Mead in Boston's lineup?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Fine. I feel the move is a downgrade for Mead, but he should end up qualified at 2B.
Lukas
7:52
Is S. Jones about to get a real runway of playing time with Bellinger out?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
He has about a week to see if he can hit major league pitching (41% K%, 59% Contact%), or the Yankees will trade for someone who can
BearInMind
7:54
Sigh... damn. Forget to send the question. Drop Jump for Wesneski or Quinn Matthews?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:54
No, I don't think so
Joel
7:55
Better reliever rest of season in a head to head points league (points for both Holds + Saves).

Big Michael Peterson
Tyron Guerrero
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
Peterson is the choice, but he's not even close to my top S+H targets.

Was looking at Teoscar as a possible 4th OF upgrade over L Butler, but his surface and advanced stats look rough.  At least with Butler he gets to hit in that ballpark vs RHP at minimum.  Do you prefer one over the other?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
Teoscar would be my preference

Hey Jeff. ROS Redraft M Gore , M Soroka or R Sasaki - thanks
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
They are closer, but right now I have it as Sasaki, Gore, Soroka

Drop Dominguez for Heriberto in OBP roto?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
yes
Salty

Imai has been consistently inconsistent.  Had a nice last start and has a tasty matchup tomorrow vs LAA.  If he does well, are you willing to buy in for the following week's two-step vsTEX/@SD, or still just too volatile for your tastes?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
I'll need three good starts before buying in
Daniel

15 team keeper (2 Catcher league)

In 2nd place and just lost Langeliers

Raleigh, Contreras, and Jeffers are all on expiring deals with non-contenders. Can you rank them as trade targets for me? Could also pick up Fortes off the wire but that feels like the 4th option
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
Contreras, Raheigh, Jeffers
Joel

Hey Jeff,

Need some help prioritizing bats for the stretch run in my 14 team H2H points league (redraft). Pitching is stable but offense has been beset by injuries - so trying to figure out how to "find gold" through the wire with hitters. For the sake of value comparison, we can forget positions here. I'm looking for who will deliver me the most points rest of the way or who has upside that's worth holding onto for an August explosion.

Current "waiver wire guys" on my roster: Heriberto Hernandez, Kody Clemens, Dylan Crews (looks good recently), Vaughn Grissom, Kyle Karros, Christian Encarnacion-Strand (not that optimistic as his AAA K-BB% is putrid).

On the wire are: Daylen Lile (dropped him because of playing time and slump), Chase Meidroth, Andrew Vaughn, Luis Lara, Tristan Peters, Braden Montgomery, Nolan Schanuel, Cam Smith (obviously talented but K's hurt in points leagues a lot).  

Any of these guys would you swap out for who I have? If so, which ones? Thx!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
This is way too long for me to answer ... sorry

Moolie Betts just hit the wire in one of my leagues. What percentage of faab would you spend? Is a teen teamer, but very large benches.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
Moolie huh ... If Mookie, I'd spend about all my FAAB except enough to make moves for injury replacements.

Saves+Holds with K/9 format - drop Kittredge for Zeferjahn?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
Kittredge
AU86
8:03
Expectations for Spencer Jones?  Redraft.  Would be dropping Dominguez
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
No, keep Dominguez or look beyond the Yankees for help
Rand

All season the banner at the top has said the chat will be starting at 9 PM! Might be time to change that!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Why start now ...

How much of my $18 of 100 FAAB would you bid on Mead in a 12 team AL only H2H 5x5 league using OPS. Would you drop Andres Gimmenz or Caprenter for him? The latter is dealing with a heel injury and I'm thinking he's IL bound. Neither has been hitting for 3+ weeks although Gimmenez showed life over the weekend. Need SBs.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
$8 to $12 and dropping Carp
AU86
8:05
Jordan Montgomery or Smith-Shawver ROS?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
Montgomery
ransohs

Looks like I'm going to take a zero at catcher this week by not replacing Basallo because I don't want to drop Scott, Pratt, Heriberto, Canzone, or Judge in my 14 teamer. How dumb am I?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
Dumb. I won $8000 because of 1 Run. Never take Zeros on purpose
AU86
8:07
Must drop one - Liberatore or Pfaadt?  K/9 is category
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
Pfaadt
AU86
8:07
Prielipp or Montero ROS?  QS league
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Montero right now
