Does it matter to FG if I don't bother to sign into my account when I visit the site? Do you guys collect any meaningful data on member engagement, etc, that I could help with by actually logging in regularly?
Travis Sawchik
1:02
Hmmm. A better question for mgmt. I will pass it up the chain

Why is Atlanta not buying any of these super cheap elite RP options? Herrera and Familia gone for peanuts.. Braves have a super deep farm.. and they continue to roll out one of the leagues worst bullpens while sitting in a great playoff position. I love me some Peter Moylan, but maybe as a coach not a RP on a team trying to win games!
Travis Sawchik
1:02
Yeah, ATL ideally would upgrade pen
Hayves

do the jays have enough sellable talent to receive top 100 prospects this deadline?
Travis Sawchik
1:04
Probably not. Happ is a FA to be and the Mariners are out of top 100 prospects

Aside from getting Cano back, what’s the biggest thing the Ms can do to hold off Oakland?
Travis Sawchik
1:05
Have Paxton healthy and on the mound

Can you think of a more unlikely power hitter than Jose Ramirez? Ever? This is a guy who had 13 CAREER minor league HR. 19 HR over his first 1,253 AB. Now he's the first in MLB to 30, in an era where HR are more prominent than ever? What a weird game...
Travis Sawchik
1:05
It's crazy. Certainly one of the more unlikely power breakouts ever

Have you noticed David Fletcher? His plate discipline skills are borderline elite, and he hit for a good amount of power in AAA this year
Travis Sawchik
1:05
Yes, because I read the FringeFive

The Eric Hosmer experience is going about as poorly as it possibly could. Thoughts/
Travis Sawchik
1:06
If only someone had seen this coming ...
1:07
If only he had been Dave Cameron's No. 1 free agent landmine ...

Everyone has been talking about Bichette & Guerro super sons duo, where is the love for Cavan Biggio? This is a super sons trio!!!!!

You forgot to mention Franco plays SS and is a switch hitter too. What a dream!
Travis Sawchik
1:08
He has chance to be the No. 1 prospect in baseball a year from now
Rockie Dangerfield

I guess the Rockies are in on Gausman and Bundy?  Why?  Mid-to-high-4 FIPs don't exactly scream, "Bring me to Coors Field!"
Travis Sawchik
1:08
The Orioles should move those guys ... and the Rockies are always going to need pitching so I can see why there would be talk
ohtani
1:09
how is my batting looking
Travis Sawchik
1:09
143 wRC+!
Pretty good
1:10
You can argue Ohtani has been a better hitter than pitcher (when healthy) to date

Some of your colleagues say Seager is very much an overrated asset dynasty leagues.  What say you?  Gotta be top-5 SS, right?
Travis Sawchik
1:11
This is a good time to buy Seager stock

What is taking so long for Realmuto to get moved?
Travis Sawchik
1:11
No idea
A number of contenders have needed catching help since the offseason
AJ
1:11
Is Zach Eflin legit?  Is he as good as Flaherty and Taillon?
Travis Sawchik
1:12
He's looking pretty legit. I need to see more before putting him in that class but he's at least a useful mid-rotation piece

Would you rather be the Rays or the Pirates going forward? This assumes that you could be a baseball team instead of a great human, of course.
Travis Sawchik
1:12
Can I move the Rays out of the AL East?
1:13
I like the Rays' U25 talent better, so I'd probably pick the Rays
John
1:14
Paddack isn't a reliever in the minors!
Travis Sawchik
1:14
Yes. I am aware. Mistyped. Fixed!
Peter

How bullish (or bearish) are you on Eloy Jimenez in a 5x5 keeper roto?
Travis Sawchik
1:14
As bullish as you can be
