Paul Sporer: Hey y’all! Just a week left in the regular season, can you believe it?!
1:01

Shifty manfred man: Hey Paul,
1:01

Paul Sporer: Hola!
1:02

MHII: How high are we taking Michael Harris next year? 2nd round?
1:04

Paul Sporer: He’s now a HR away from 20/20 and has only played 108 games! That said a .370 BABIP and 26% HR/FB rate are helping a lot and I worry that there won’t be any real regression assumed for him and he’ll go 2nd-3rd round pretty consistently. I love the talent and I’m a sucker power-speed, but I’ll probably fade the sky-high price for 2023
1:04

John: Pulled down a H2H Cats title this week.  Looking to next year, who is most likely to be real for 2023 – Brandon Drury, Jose Miranda (late May on) or Justin Steele?

Starting Pitcher Chart – September 28th, 2022

I started this in early-September last year and it seemed to be useful. The chart will include their performance over the last five starts, their opponent’s wOBA versus the pitcher’s handedness, and then my start/sit recommendation for 10-team, 12-team, and 15-team (or more) leagues.

These are general recommendations, and your league situation will carry more weight whether you are protecting ratios or chasing counting numbers. This is for standard 5×5 roto leagues. The thresholds for H2H starts are generally lower, especially in points leagues so I thought there would be more value focusing on roto.

Let’s go secure some titles!

Note: Pitchers recommended in 12/15 but not 10 doesn’t mean I wouldn’t start them in 10s, but rather that it’s a more open choice as opposed to a slam dunk.

1:12

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone! Let’s talk some baseball!!
1:14

Davey Ping Pong: How would you order these guys in a Dynasty 12 Team Head to Head league: Adley Rutschman, Corbin Carroll, Gunnar Henderson, Josh Jung?
1:18

Paul Sporer: I think I’d go just as you’ve laid them out here! Adley is definitely my #1 and while Jung is last, it’s not because I don’t like him… I’m a huge fan!
1:18

Still not ready for fantasy football: Keep Megill over Stroman in a dynasty league?
1:21

Paul Sporer: Hmmm, I think I would, yes. Stro has had a good season, but he’s living on a wire and could easily be a low-to-mid 4.00s ERA guy without much skill degradation. Megill might be that, too, but at least it’ll come w/Ks and he does have major upside
1:22

Bobby: Would you keep Jose Siri at $10 in a 16 team dynasty (40 man roster/$400 cap)?
