: Better keeper in AL only league: deGrom ($6) or G-Cole ($15)? |
| 1:02 |
: Cole for sure. I just can’t trust deGrom’s health, even at the great price |
| 1:02 |
: 12 homers and 3 steals for Carroll since the Break… just like we all expected! |
| 1:05 |
: I’ve 9 HRs/3 SBs, but point taken… he’s swinging much better and I stand firm that his shoulder was bothering him early on but not enough that he couldn’t play through it and then he also suffered some bad luck compounding the issues |
| 1:06 |
: Bowdin Francis, Matt Boyd or Bido? Or just follow the match-ups? |

: What do I do with these injured SPs in 15 team league, roto.
|
| 7:31 |
: I wish I knew
|
| 7:32 |
: Austin Riley may have broken his hand. Max Muncy and Josh Jung are out there. Who would you grab? One caveat is that I already have Mookie and Teoscar. Is 3 Dodgers too many?

: Hello everyone, thanks for coming out! |

: Zebby is one of the most fun names in baseball right now, yeah? |
| 1:04 |
: Absolutely!! I love Zebulon! It’s not just a fun name, either, he did well in the minors and has a profile that can absolutely find success, especially with Joe Ryan’s injury clearing the playing time path. I’m on the Zebby Matthews train to see where this goes |
| 1:04 |
: New SP rankings are live, btw, in case you missed ’em in the Chat post: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/2024-in-season-starting-pitcher-rankings… |
| 1:05 |
: Too early to forecast, but please do: Langford or Chourio ROS? Beyond? It seems like Langford will never be able to hit the fastball, while Jackson is making strides all around… |
| 1:06 |
: Love both but firm lean to Chourio between the 2. He just has the more robust fantasy profile right now and I think he will in the future, too, especially if we don’t see Langford’s power come together. |

: Would you drop Crochet for Springs? Springs looked great today and Crochet is likely to get shut down
|
| 7:32 |
: Yes
|
| 7:33 |
: Thank you for doing these chats! I’m in a 6×6 roto with Betts, Casas and Edman returning. Could you rank these guys in order of droppability? Toglia, Mayo, C. Doval, Lux, J. Dominguez & India. Or do I release Edman?

: What’s your take on the closer situations in KC and Arizona? Do you think anyone runs away with the job or will they be committees for the rest of the year? |
| 1:08 |
: In fluid situations like that, someone can always grab hold of the job by catching fire. Just tough to know who it’ll be, of course. My bets are on Erceg and Puk. |
| 1:08 |
: Is Will Smith a huge upgrade over Ben Rice in a 1C, 12-team H2H with OBP and Slugging instead of Avg? Maybe I am so used to waiting to draft catchers and then using non-catching Cs that I just don’t recognize the big boost? |
| 1:14 |
: I know Will Smith has been sputtering pretty much since May with a .198/.292/.387 line, but it has still come with 12 HRs and 35 RBIs which are 29 and 86 full season paces. I see a .215 BABIP over this time and have to think there is some bad luck in there. He is K’ing more than normal at 23% during this period (16% the last 2 yrs) and he is hitting more flyballs than normal which will also curb BABIP. Bottom line is that I’m staying the course w/Smith here. Rice is interesting, but not I can’t take him over Smith |
| 1:14 |
: Is something wrong with Luis Castillo? He used to be a must start all the time but he’s been so up and down this year. Reminds me of him in his early years. Thanks for the chat! |

: Looking towards next year in an NL Only keeper league.. better shot at being a future closer Kopech or Pearson (both or neither?)? Both seem to have +Stuff
|
| 7:32 |
: Neither IMO. Wait and some closer situations will clear up. Also, look for closers at the end of their contract where someone else will need to step in.
|
| 7:32 |
: In a 15 Tm Mixed would you drop Tyler Phillips for Faucher, Littell or Thompson?

: Hellooo everyone! Thanks for coming out! |
| 1:06 |
: Thinking about a deep league deal for Luis Ortiz or Tyler Phillips, How do you feel about them ROS? Both have been on quite a good stretch. Will they keep their jobs? Both are already close to their career high in IP. Concerns? Any preference? Thanks! |
| 1:06 |
: Higher on Ortiz with a major component being an easier path to IP. Philly isn’t gonna push Phillips unless they just absolutely need for some reason |
| 1:06 |
: Whats for lunch |
| 1:07 |
: A sandwich from a place called ThunderCloud Subs here in Austin! |
| 1:07 |
: Pretty happy with what Stearns did this deadline. What would you grade it? |
