Even the two guys with a single “x” on Friday have a modicum of appeal in deeper leagues. I’ve always been a Canning guy and Lorenzen v. SFG isn’tΒ completely off the table for consideration.

Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – June 5th, 2024

by
June 5, 2024

Transcript is now live!

1:11

Paul Sporer: Thanks for coming out, sorry I’m late! My gf is having computer issues and I lost track of time when we were putting it back together (for the third time… it’s not going well w/the fixes unfortunately) — post-chat update: it’s working again for now!!
1:14

MochiBetts: at what point do we start to become concerned about the ball from a hitting POV this year and how do we integrate it into how we value the middle tier pitchers having better years?
1:15

Paul Sporer: It’s already part of the equation for me and definitely hurts those mid-tier power guys who’s wall scrappers are now just F7s, F8s, and F9s in the scorebook. I wouldn’t overreact to it, but I’d lower my expectations of those guys in the 12-20ish HR range
1:15

Idiotic Failson: Are you starting Rodon against Minny tonight? They’re just sneaky good enough to make me nervous. I don’t NEED the innings.
1:16

Paul Sporer: I’m starting him mostly everywhere https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/starting-pitcher-chart-june-5th-2024/ but if you really don’t need the innings and fear a bomb, I don’t object to a sit.
1:16

Paul Sporer: The recos are always general and then your specific details can change the calculus

Mostly straightforward decisions on Tuesday. I’m a big Ober believer, but there’s no shame in skipping a start at NYY. Same for SΓ‘nchez against the Brewers.
