: Welcome
|
| 7:31 |
: Here are the winning FAAB bids from the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues
|

:
|
| 7:32 |
: projections for JJ Bleday?
|
| 7:33 |
: I think he’s a full-season 20-30 HR, 5 SB, .225 AVG guy
|
| 7:33 |
: Are we still believers in Vinny P? All the peripherals say hold but it’s been rough. Prefer him to Pratto? darick hall?
|
All-Star break chat!
| 1:10 |
: Good afternoon, y’all! Worst day in baseball today with no games or MLB-based events! |
| 1:11 |
: But we’ll make it better with some chatting!! |
| 1:11 |
: What are your thoughts on Braxton Garrett? Are his improvements for real? |
| 1:12 |
: I’m certainly intrigued by him. He showed major BB gains in AAA and has brought them to the majors so far. If he can continue this newfound control, there is some real 2H upside |
| 1:12 |
: For next season onwards, is Strider a top tier starting pitcher keeper asset? Or is there some concerns / variability with his future? |
| 1:12 |
: I wouldn’t quite go top tier but he’s up there. It’s always hard to predict the future with SPs, but his stuff is excellent and he doesn’t seem daunted by the shift to starting |
| 7:32 |
: Welcome and I’ll probably just go 45 minutes.
|
| 7:32 |
: With Jake Meyers not running away with the CF job and McCormick hitting better do you think the latter has a chance of getting the job back……or will Houston trade for a CFer? McCormick is available via FAAB.
|
| 7:33 |
: I think it’s Meyers job for a bit longer. The Astros could trade for a center fielder.
|
| 7:33 |
: Nolan Jones or Jose Miranda ROS? Thanks!
|
| 7:34 |
: Comes done to need. Without any context Jones. I’m worried about Miranda’s playing time with so many corner bats.
|
| 7:34 |
: Akil Baddoo is available in my 12 team AL only 5×5 keeper league. How much FAAB (out of 18 left of 100) are you willing to spend? Detroit has such a pitiful offense am afraid to roster another (have Greene).
|
| 7:31 |
: Welcome, everyone. Here are the bids from the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues.
|
| 7:31 |
:
|
| 7:32 |
: Should I drop Seranthony Dominguez for Aroldis Chapman? Saves only.
|
| 7:33 |
: Yes. My take is that Chapman may get the role back (his velo is up) and hold it for the rest-of-season. If he doesn’t in the next two weeks, drop him for people moved at the trade deadline.
|
| 7:33 |
: Gavin Sheets turning into a everyday player vs rightys ?
|
| 7:33 |
: He always has been in the majors and is scheduled to face six righties this week.

: Hello everyone! Thanks for coming to my chat!! |
| 1:03 |
: weekly skubal check in?? |
| 1:04 |
: It’s not good. I was not concerned after the first 3 with only Texas really standing out as problematic, but the other 2 v. BOS & TOR. Felt like standard regression. Now we’re at 5 starts w/a 2.0 HR9, soaring walk rate, and big velo dip last time out v. KC. I’m not yet cutting him in most lgs (maybe a 10) but I’m benching him |
| 1:04 |
: Who is to blame for the white sox |
| 1:06 |
: Everyone wants it to all be TLR, but that’s not really the case. Mgrs. rarely have THAT much overall impact. I do think he is a net negative for sure and the hiring NEVER made sense (unless you know the personal friendships of TLR & Reinsdorf, but certainly no baseball sense). They’ve also been ravaged by injuries which isn’t an excuse as all teams get hit, but it can be a reason for a team’s shortcomings in a given season. Kopech looks off completely right now, too. I still can’t rule them out of the Central bc of their core of talent, but they are far from the favorites |
| 1:06 |
: Where do yo think Isaac Paredes’s talent stabilizes? I know Statcast hates him. Can he be a 25 HR .800 OPS guy? |
| 7:30 |
: Happy 3rd of July. By the prep in my hood, tonight is going to be the big one.
|
| 7:30 |
: Here are the Tout Wars 15-team bids.
|
| 7:31 |
:
|
| 7:31 |
: In a 14-team H2H Leauge where OPS replaces Runs category Who would you go for as a Salvy replacement next couple months ?
Garver , Jansen cal raleigh, Jose trevino |
| 7:31 |
: Garver
|
| 7:31 |
: Happy 4th weekend. H2H Alex Wood or Eric Lauer rest of season. Thanks

: Hello everyone! Let’s talk some baseball!! |
| 1:03 |
: Strider or Roansy long-term? |
| 1:04 |
: Strider for me! He looks every bit like a legit SP |
| 1:05 |
: think snell figures it out this year? under the hood doesn’t look that far off from career numbers but he’s been tough even in shallow leagues |
| 1:05 |
: The tough part is when command goes in and out, he can be great for 3-4 IP and then off for 1-2 and those 1-2 can be killer |
| 1:06 |
: Hi Paul! Would you rather start Gonsolin vs SD or Javier vs LAA? |
| 7:30 |
: Good evening.
|
| 7:31 |
: First, here are the winning bids in the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues.
|
| 7:31 |
:
|
| 7:32 |
: As always, I’m going to try to get to all the FAAB and waiver questions before I get to any trade and prospect questions.
|
| 7:32 |
: Any interest in Maximo Castillo? Deep leagues for sure but looked decent in relief, fanning 7 in 4 innings of relief and might get a start this week
|
| 7:33 |
: Not yet but it wouldn’t take much in the current starting pitcher landscape

: Hey everyone! |
| 1:04 |
: So why isn’t Nestor Cortez on your Main Event team |
| 1:04 |
: RUDE! |
| 1:04 |
: starting Morton & Blackburn tonight? |
| 1:04 |
: Yes for both |
| 1:04 |
: Who are a few 3b options likely available in 10 team points leagues that I should be targeting? |
