Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – December 20th, 2023

Thanks for coming out, have a great holiday season, everyone!

Programming note: There won’t be a December 27th chat, back on January 3rd after this one

Update: I originally said chats would return January 3rd, but I’m eyeball-deep in rankings right now so catch my next chat on January 9th. Pardon me for the late change. Stay tuned for my C, SS, and SP commentary rankings coming in the next few days!

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone, thanks for coming out!!

PJ: Is Glasnow 110 million dollars better than pepiot? Is Margot any different than Doluca beyond salary? The Dodgers are making really questionable decisions imo

1:14

Paul Sporer: I love Pepiot, but Glasnow is definitely better and by quite a bit (Pep can get to a pretty high level, IMO, but Glasnow is ace quality right now). The problem is of course his health. That’s an unknowable X-factor and if he continues to deal w/health issues, it’s very possible Pepiot outearns him. Agree on Margot/Deluca.

copecru81: Pfaadt or Abbott keeper league?

1:15

Paul Sporer: Pfaadt for me. They’re close in a neutral situation, but of course there are in very different parks so I lean toward the guy who isn’t stuck in Cincy’s tough park

1:20

Globbery Robbery: Really enjoyed you and Justin on the Fantasy Baseball Today podcast with Scott and Frank. Please invite Scott on to the S&TB podcast sometime this season! I think you guys could really have good debates.

Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – December 6th, 2023

Thank y’all so much for coming out, the transcript is now available!

1:04

Paul Sporer: Hello hello!! It’s chat time and if you want to follow the Rule 5 Draft, you can do that here: https://www.mlb.com/video/live-rule-5-draft-90176?t=mlb-pipeline

1:05

PJ: You (actually Justin) intimated that Jackson Holliday has a real chance to break camp. How high would you take him in a DC and also a ME type team?

1:08

Paul Sporer: Those will vary a good bit bc by the time Mains come around, we’ll have a better idea on Holiday and his price will probably be top 75. For DCs, he’s going just inside the top 200 which isn’t terrible and could pay off nicely.

1:08

Arson Judge: How will Jon Heyman botch Soto’s name in the race to break the inevitable trade news?

1:08

Paul Sporer: Juan Soros going to NYY!

1:08
