Paul Sporer Baseball Chat – September 15th, 2021

Transcript is now available!

1:00

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

1:02

Goobles: How long do you think Dalbec is going to keep this up? Right now he’s my only 3B and I’m on a strict transaction limit in the playoffs, feeling iffy on him ROS

1:03

Paul Sporer: He’s definitely super streaky but hopefully he can get you to the finish line bc he can go cold quickly

1:03

Turgid: 12 team 6×6 dynasty, I’m about to win the league, but I have too many good players. Which 2 out of Brandon Lowe, Sale, Kershaw, Riley Greene, Ohtani (Pitcher only), and Ynoa would you NOT protect?

1:04

Paul Sporer: I think you have to let Greene go since he hasn’t debuted yet. I know you said dynasty, but don’t most dynasties keep everyone? In a case like this with a shortened keeper list, you have to keep the proven dudes so the 2nd cut is probably Ynoa

1:04

BringBackDeSpanielHair: My Yankees make me sad

7:33

Paul Sporer: Hello everyone! Welcome to the chat!!

1:17

Paul Sporer: Sorry CPU restarted outta nowhere

1:17

Salty: What do you think of Luis Garcia on the Cards?  Velocity seems good and he’s been on some kind of run.  Does he get the most saves in St. Louis ROS?

1:18

Paul Sporer: He’s been great, but it’s not something that has a lot of fantasy relevance given his age & role

1:18

Cedric Mullins: Am I drafted as a top 2 rounder next year?

1:19

Paul Sporer: Very close, probably depends on league size. Think he ranges somewhere in the 25-40 area

7:31
Jeff Zimmerman: Welcome.

7:32
Jeff Zimmerman: Here are tonight’s Tout Wars adds from the 15-team leagues.

7:32
Jeff Zimmerman:

7:32
Kate: Aaron ashby looked pretty good again today.  Brewers gonna keep him in the rotation or is he gonna get bounced back and forth?

7:33
Jeff Zimmerman: He has looked good I’m not 100% sure he sticks, but I don’t think so. He is the one arm they can option back to AAA

7:33
Frank: How would you rank Joe, Mateo, Ortega and Baddoo, rest of year. Can you use help in everything but runs.

Paul Sporer’s Baseball Chat – August 26th, 2021

A day late, but still great!

1:05

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

1:05

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

1:05

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

1:05

Paul Sporer: No

1:06

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

1:07

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

7:30
Jeff Zimmerman: Hello and here are the FAAB bids in the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues.

7:30
Jeff Zimmerman:

7:31
Raj: Is Corey Kluber worth adding in 12-team-pts league?

7:31
Jeff Zimmerman: I’ve been passing him up. Let me check something

7:32
Jeff Zimmerman:

Kluber walks a run home with the bases loaded, and his night is over.

45 pitches/20 strikes.

Current line w/bases loaded and one out: 1.1 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 1 K.

Fastball command just was not there tonight. He popped a few 90’s on the gun in the second w/FB.

12 Aug 2021
7:33
Jeff Zimmerman: It’s not good when he’s barely toughing 90 mph but was averaging ~91 mph before getting hurt

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

1:39

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

1:40

Paul Sporer: 2023

1:40

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?

1:40

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

1:40

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