7:33
Jeff Zimmerman: Not that good if he continues to sit against all lefties. Streamer depending on matchups

Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – April 12th, 2023

Thanks for coming out/reading the transcript!

1:00

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

1:00

Greg: What’s your evaluation of Bubic? You buying the breakout?

1:02

Paul Sporer: I’m in for the pickup to see if it’s real. In today’s fantasy game, we can’t really wait for things to stabilize statistically so if someone spikes their velo with major K & BB improvements, I’ll take a shot. GB spike and former prospect status only adds to the intrigue

1:02

Petey: Which post hype OF do you like more Kelenic or Marsh?

1:03

Paul Sporer: Justin, don’t you have work to do? wink

1:04

Paul Sporer: I’m not much higher on one than the other, tbh, as they’re both showing similar gains early on. Might lean Kelenic ever so slightly

Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – April 5th, 2023

Transcript is live, thanks for coming to the chat!

1:03

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

1:03

Luke: Is Jorge Mateo’s hot start just a fun product of a small sample size or does Mateo have potential to be a roto breakout star this year?

1:05

Paul Sporer: Nothing is real yet for anyone, but I’m keeping a close eye on Mateo’s improved K & BB rates. His swinging strike rate is down massively to 8% and if he makes real improvements there, we could see a true breakout season. We need a few weeks before those numbers start to stabilize, though.

1:05

Bill: Dude, you better be watching deGrom vs Gray Rod during this. I do expect slower than normal response times from you.

1:05

Paul Sporer: Of course, I am! HUUUUUGE set of day games, I love it!!!

1:05

RAGBRAI: When Grichuk returns I have to cut either him, Moustakas or B Johnson (SF). Do I have to cut Johnson based on playing time or will he outperform Moose by the end of the year?

Kelly: can you rank Daza Grossman Bae Wiemer 15 team NFBC?

7:33
Jeff Zimmerman: Since it’s early in the season, I’ll ignore the COL vs WAS games and go with Grossman, Wiemer, Bae, Daza.

7:33
Jeff Zimmerman: Daza has a nice projection for the week.

Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – March 29th, 2023

Transcript is now available!

1:00

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone, thanks for coming out!

1:01

Oil Can: I tailed your love of Andrew Vaughn and Hunter Brown, reasonable expectations this season for both?

1:04

Paul Sporer: If Vaughn stays healthy, I can definitely see another power and AVG jump… something like 23-25 HRs and a .280 AVG. Brown also needs his back to hold up, but if so, I think he can drop 130 IP with a 3.60 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 145 Ks

1:04

Quarantino Martinez: Opening Day!!!! I thought I was maximally procrastinating at work already but they ain’t seen nothing yet.

1:04

Paul Sporer: Bout to hit another level with day baseball games!

1:05

Guest: What do you think of Julio Urias for JT Realmuto (current catcher is William Contreras).

10:48
Jeff Zimmerman: Hi, sorry for the early time today, but I’ll be drafting during the normal chat time.

10:49
Jeff Zimmerman: As always, I will take WW and FAAB questions first.

10:49
Schiester: What % of faab are we looking at for Schuster?

10:51
Jeff Zimmerman: Depending league depth, I could see him going a decent penny.

10:52
Jeff Zimmerman: A desperate manager who has several injuries could jump in and go to 10%, but I could see 1% to 4% work in most leagues.

10:53
Brett5er: Where would you rank Eflin in your Waiver Wire Report vs the pitchers listed?
