Paul Sporer: Hello everyone, thanks for coming out!

Golf: Worth dropping Canha for Michael Busch?

Paul Sporer: Yeah if you prefer the power, I’m OK w/that

Saul Pporer: Who’s an acceptable hitter to target with Skenes in a redraft, keep two? 12 teams 6×6.

Paul Sporer: Top of the scale… just has to be a premium stud bat

T(win)s: Festa going to get a chance to stay up for more than a spot start?  Hopefully he can help the rotation the way SWR has

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone, thanks for coming out!

Jacob B: How about those Mariners?

Paul Sporer: Great pitching can paper over issues if the limited hitting is timely enough! I don’t say that to hate on ’em, especially because there is some upside in that lineup and we know Trader Jerry will be on the horn trying to figure out how to improve it

Bob: Would you drop Jake Meyers for Soler or Noelvi if you only had 14 transactions left for the season?

Paul Sporer: I’m not sure either is a big enough upgrade to make the move right now

I Used to be Mel Clark: Thanks for doing the chats, Paul! Cole Ragans is a Top ___ SP in Dynasty going forward.

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone!! Thanks for coming out!

Why not Zoidberg?: Shallow H2H – Caballero and Pablo Lopez hit waivers. Are you dropping J Ortiz, Langford, or Neris for any of them?

Paul Sporer: I’m all over Pablo Lopez for sure. Even in a shallow lg, I don’t love that cut. Caballero for Ortiz could be fine if you really need SBs

AL OBP league: Bliss vs. Manzardo?

Paul Sporer: Slight Manzo lean

MS: Pablo rest of 1H lines up Col, TBR, at Oak, at Sea, Hou, at CWS….is it now or never?

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!!

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?

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

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.

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.

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