Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – July 24th, 2024

July 24, 2024

Transcript is now available!

1:04	Paul Sporer: Hello everyone! How’s it goin?

1:04	Brad: Luis Garcia Jr or Angel Martinez for the next 3 years. Who ya got?

1:04	Paul Sporer: Garcia Jr. for me! But Angel Martinez has enough intrigue that it’s at least close

1:04	Adenolith: What’s up with Crochet? Are they just going to give him 4 innings at a time the rest of the year? This seems impossible to plan around.

1:05	Paul Sporer: 74 pitches through 4 which doesn’t mean he couldn’t go 5, but he wasn’t at his most efficient so they decided to pull the plug. Save some juice for a potential trading team, too, without just flat out sitting him. I actually don’t mind this handling from the CHW standpoint

1:05	anthony: Is Nolan Jones worth a stash if an IL slot is available? does he return to any semblance of last year?

I only wrote up the guys with 1-2 x’s. The 3 x’s are either locked studs or capable streamers with great matchups and most of the 0 x’s are easy skips. That said, I’ll gladly answer any questions if you want further discussion on anyone.

We’re back from the All-Star break! I can’t believe the deadline is just over a week away, but don’t let that make you lose sight of the fact that there is still enough time to make major shifts in your standings. I know Justin and I hammer this point on the podcast, too, but it isn’t impossible to see substantial moves from the All-Star break on. Obviously, every situation is unique and I’m not going to pretend that some teams aren’t completely dead, but many aren’t and it sucks to kinda give up on a squad that ends up rallying only for you to realize that a bit more rigor in this part of the schedule when things like the new College Football video game and of course football itself start garnering attention (assuming you’re a football fan, of course).

If you didn’t see my chat today, I just wanted y’all to know that there was no chart yesterday because we lost internet for about 9 hours with a statewide outage for Spectrum service. Thankfully we avoided any bad weather here in Austin so in the grand scheme an afternoon and evening without the internet isn’t the end of the world.

For Thursday, we have some tough spots where you have to decide if chasing the win potential is worth the risk.
