Paul Sporer: Hello everyone!! Sorry for being a day late, but we’re here!!

Paul Sporer: I’m also posting my SP rankings here very soon so you can view those & ask questions (live in about 5)

Guest: Concerned about Ohtani’s recent hitting performance? Lots of strikeouts

Paul Sporer: No

Guest: Is it time to give up on Jeff McNeil hopefully recapturing his 2019 output?

Paul Sporer: Oh for sure, he looks like a clear 2019 rabbit ball product. I think a healthy McNeil is still a .280+ hitter w/low double-digit pop, but I’d be surprised if we saw 23 ever again

Paul Sporer: Good afternoon, y’all! Let’s talk some baseball!

Garbel: Which year do you think the Mariners will break their playoff drought?

Paul Sporer: 2023

Greg: I’m having a tough time deciding on my 1B and corner IF spots next year. How would you fill those spots out of Andrew Vaughn, Rizzo, Austin Riley and Kiriloff in a league where I can keep them forever?

Paul Sporer: I’d probably start moving away from Rizzo and while I do love Kirilloff, he is behind Vaughn & Riley right now due to the health

Jose Alpizar: Should I hold ok Kelenic on a 12 team league? What’s his true upside for 2021?

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone, thanks for coming out!

Dave: Too soon predictions (especially considering today’s IL move) for where Rodon and Ray will open next year in your SP rankings?

Paul Sporer: Yeah, I really need to final 2 months for both to have a good feel of where I’m at. Rodon had to get some time off so this IL stint makes sense, epsec. when they have a ready made stud to fill in with Kopech.

Dave: I know you’re usually not into guys returning from TJ (at least immediately), but what are your ROS expectations for Sale? The reports from his rehab starts have been glowing…

Paul Sporer: I primarily eschew drafting them, but once back I start to give them more attention. Sale has no doubt looked sharp in his rehab outings. Usually my issue w/TJ returners for fantasy is that they will almost certainly hit a wall in a couple starts out of nowhere so the duds can outweigh the 2-3 gems and really hurt their numbers. Sale certainly looks ready to roll, though, and if you have him, you should be starting him once back

Martin: Keeper league question: Is one year of 26 yr old Bieber better than three of 30 yr old Gausman? 16 tm h2h 6×6 league with quality starts instead of wins. Other three keepers (you can keep four) are all hitters. No cost associated with either.

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

JC: LOL @ the mookie collection requirements.

Paul Sporer: An elite card being tough to get? Wow… what an idea lol

Paul Sporer: The complaints about it are MUCH funnier, tbh. With all due respect, y’all are being whack.

CT: Hey Paul, appreciate the chat. Hold or Fold in 12tm roto: Conforto & Gonsolin respectively

Paul Sporer: I’m definitely open to cutting both depending on who you’re picking up. Gonso is easiest to cut but I can definitely get behind moving on from Conforto in a 12-teamer
