Brad Johnson: We’ll get things kicked off in a few minutes

Jon: What is Cody Bellinger’s value in a dynasty league? I’m looking to compete next year and push in some future depth for present value. Wander Franco + David Dahl + Domingo Santana too low for an initial offer?

Brad Johnson: I suppose it depends on league depth. I’d have Wander ahead of Bellinger in my 20+ teamers. So this does seem possible. If it’s a 12 teamer, then you probably have no chance at Bellinger

Trent: Lux or DeJong rest of season?

Brad Johnson: Are you managing for floor or ceiling

Brad Johnson: DeJong is definitely going to play plenty. Lux could blow him out of the water or barely show up.

Jeff Zimmerman: Sorry about no chat last week.

Paul Sporer: Good afternoon! Welcome to my weekly chat, let’s roll!

Jeff: H2H Pts League where Playoffs are 3 weeks, total score wins (can change lineup weekly) – any advice on strategy here or just keep doing what I’ve been doing all season?

Paul Sporer: Maybe dial up how much you play the schedules. If there are some 7-games v. 5-gamers, maybe player a less talented 7-gamer over a 5-gamer… within reason. Not like sitting Bregman for Leury Garcia or some shit.

Chas: Paul, do you find Taylor Swift’s “Lover” a nice return to form after her ostentatious hard-edge turn in “Reputation?”

Paul Sporer: She puts out some bops, but overall I’m pretty meh on her

seth r: traded cheap hiura for unkeepable blackmon, mallex, hendricks, and fowler–flags fly forever right?

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

Big L > Jay Z: Say it’s ok for me to trade May and Eloy as keepers for a chance to win my league. Bless me please.

Paul Sporer: If you’re getting the pieces to greatly aid your title chances, then yes, I’m down with it

Paul Sporer: Y’all remember when Matt Holliday went 28-for-30 in SBs?!?! https://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=1873&position=OF

Willa Ford: Will Smith or Mitch Garver ROS? It’s a weird format: Standard cats + OBP + Hits.

Paul Sporer: I’ll take Garver by a hair

Brad Johnson: We’ll get started in a few moments

Brad Johnson: A note: I’d like to *not* field many keeper questions if you don’t mind. I know there’s an interest in looking ahead at the offseason around this time of year, but there’s plenty of present action to discuss

Billy B: How do you like the Brewer version of J.Lyles?

Brad Johnson: Less than the Pirates version so far. Command and SwStr% have been worse.

Brad Johnson: I’ve been trying perhaps a little too hard to make Lyles work as a fantasy contributor over the last calendar year – mostly in 20-team formats.

Brad Johnson: As a Brewer, he’s leaned on a .143 BABIP through 3 starts
