Sunday Night Fantasy Baseball Chat

The Sunday night chats are back in business and I’ll begin answering questions at 8 CST Sunday night with the queue hopefully opening up one hour earlier. During the season, I’ll normally focus on FAAB and waiver wire questions but anything goes for now. -Jeff

 

The “Beat Jeff Zimmerman League” date has now been set for February 22th at 8:00 PM ET. It’s an NFBC 12-team, FAAB league with a $115,000 grand prize. Click here for more details.

8:01

Jeff Zimmerman: I’ll go ahead and get started.

8:01

Jeff: Who is the better young catcher…Jansen or Mejia?  Who would you prefer to have in a keep forever league?

8:02

Jeff Zimmerman: This is close …. Mejia who I think as more upside. It’s catcher, so a replacement can be found if he flops.

8:03

Vic: Please rank for 2019-2023 total value:   Peraza, Odor, Andersen, Mazara, Laureano, Hampson, Profar.

8:03

Jeff Zimmerman: I need a ton more information like the league details to answer questions like this one.

8:04

Adam: Do you change anything about the way you calculate auction values in a H2H league as opposed to Roto? I figured using z-scores made more sense than SGP.

4:00
Brad Johnson: I got hung up playing OOTP 19. It’s $4.99 on Steam today.

4:01
Filet-o-Marlins: Luis Garcia (WAS) or Nate Lowe in 12 team keep forever dynasty league?

4:01
Brad Johnson: EZ Garcia

4:02
Brad Johnson: Despite solid on field results, Lowe isn’t very highly regarded. I’ve yet to read a credible report that said “yep, this is definitely a MLBer”

4:02
Brad Johnson: Garcia has potential to become a top 25 prospect. He might already be a top 25 dynasty prospect.

Purple Mays Haze: When will your dynasty ADP come out?

4:01

4:01

4:02
TRANE: Hello sir, 20 team dynasty 17th (last) spot goes too… F Peralta, M Boyd, W Calhoun, or L Voit?  Trade Bait + Value next year

4:03

Pitching seems so volatile that I feel like I can build via waivers/trades over the next few years…thanks!

4:00
Brad Johnson: That is absolutely one of the main methods to building a roster.

4:01
Brad Johnson: This is my roster in DTBNL – https://www.fantrax.com/fantasy/league/1ps1k57qjox1v897/team/roster
