Jeff Zimmerman: Welcome and a note about next week, there is a good chance there will be no chat since I’ll be traveling for Memorial Day. I might do a limited one earlier in the day.

Jeff Zimmerman: Here are the winning bids from the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues.

Jeff Zimmerman:

Need for speed: Myles straw was dropped. What do u think about him for speed. He is pretty empty otherwise

Jeff Zimmerman: He plays and steals bases. For some managers, there will be helpful.

BoB: What kind of bid are we looking at for Bobby Miller in ME leagues where he’s available now?

Paul Sporer: Hey y’all, thanks for coming out!

Mike: I have Tucker in a points league. He’s been underwhelming for a consensus top 15 guys. Should I be worried? Is there better days ahead or is this what he is?

Paul Sporer: Kinda surprised it’s been underwhelming w/a 20-20 pace & improved AVG. I have zero concerns about him

Jim Leyland Palmer: 10tm 5×5. I sold E-rod for Starling Marte. How does that sit with you?

Paul Sporer: Dig it! Totally fair

Mike: What’s your take on Alcantra ROS.

Jeff Zimmerman: Sorry for the change of format. I’m not on my normal computer.

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

Coffee: I know you like MLB The Show. Have you ever given Super Mega Baseball a try? Incredible game. SMB4 comes out in just a few weeks.

Paul Sporer: I looooove SMB!!! Really got into the last version, will definitely scoop this. Not sure I have a ton of time to balance all 3 games (add OOTP in there), but I’ll definitely have ’em all

Greg: Bryce Miller is a top ____ start over the rest of the season.

Paul Sporer: 60

Paul Sporer: Solid chance to be better, but that gives the rookie some wiggle room

Jeff Zimmerman: Welcome

Jeff Zimmerman: Here are the results from the two 15-team Tout Wars mixed leagues.

Jeff Zimmerman:

Jacks: 12 Team AL-Only, I’ve got $69 left (we allow $0 bids). Lost Urquidy and Luis Garcia this week leaving me with only Three Starters. Gausman, McClanahan and Bradish. How aggressive should I be on Bryce Miller? (Other SP on the wire are JP Sears, Louie Varland, JP France, Lorenzen, Battenfield, Pivetta, Kopech).

Jeff Zimmerman: The $0 bids help a ton to fill voids

Jeff Zimmerman: $30 to $40. Possibly more. I might set up my bids to go aggressive on Miller but get Varland and France/Sears as a backup

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone! Thanks for coming out!

Mike: Can I find Stuff+ Location+ and Pitching+ on the players page on Fangraphs, if so what tab? Thank you.

Paul Sporer: I don’t think it’s available on individual pages yet, but on the leaderboards you can — https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=pit&lg=all&qual=y…

Ryan: Came straight from twitch. You got to my questions there, just wanted to say thanks!

Paul Sporer: No problem!!

Justin Mason: How much FAAB on average would it take to get Brad Miller this weekend?

Hill: Jeff, Thanks for doing these as always…..Which of Logan Allen and Bibee is likely to have the run in the rotation and what would you put for FAAB percentage wise in OC?

Jeff Zimmerman: I’ll answer this and then drop the FAAB results

Jeff Zimmerman: I ranked Allen over Bibee based on his “stuff” numbers. They are really close otherwise. I’m guessing we are in the Bradley/Miller range of 10% to 50% to get one of them

Jeff Zimmerman:

Jeff Zimmerman: Here are the results of the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues.

Guest: Trying to figure out a FAAB % on Myles Straw. What would be your range?
