Sunday Night Waiver Wire & FAAB Chat

Jeff Zimmerman
7:31
Welcome.
7:32
Here are the winning bids in the three 15-team Tout Wars leagues. One note. The bids are higher than expected because several teams got extra FAAB on the first of the month do to some league rules.
7:33
Yankee E
7:33
After Arrighetti’s performance this week, go with him, Schwellenbach, or an SP/RP reliever (Puk) for fifth SP spot in H2H playoffs?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
I'd lean Schwellenbach
Yankee E
7:33
Trusting Chad Green at this point.  Likely have to shift to a holds reliever in an H2H league where both are separate categories.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
I do
Joe
7:34
Am I crazy to start Oller for a two step?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:34
You may have to beat a superior opponent by hoping for two great starts. At this point, do what it takes to win your league.
Yankee E
7:35
Added Jung after he was dropped recently.  Confident to start in H2H playoffs?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
Which one? Texas, yes. Detroit, no.
boaty
7:35
No impact on this year's standings, but Leiter worth a spec add as a keeper if the only cost is dropping Verlander? Is Verlander toast?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
I'd not worry about Verlander at this point and go young. There is a chance no one will roster Verlander and he can be drafted next year.
Yankee E
7:36
Norby is a must-start player at this point in a 12-team league?  Thank you for all of your information during the season.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
Probably but if he goes on a 5 for 50 run, don't be surprised with his 33% K%.
Billy
7:38
Hail Mary needed for a first baseman for the last three weeks. Isaac Paredes, Seth Brown, or Ty France???
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
France with that high school ballpark he plays in.
Guest

Thank you very much for doing these chats all season. Crews and Norby are available in my OC. What bids do you expect (a few contenders have around $300 left) and who would you prioritize?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
If I had $300, I'd go all in, but for $10, to get one. They can't use the money next season. I expect insane bids.
Mike
7:40
Do I stick with Robert for the playoffs? Other OF options include Lane Thomas, Crews, Carpenter, Ward, or Toglia. I’m tempted to jump off this ship. Help?!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
No one sticks out as a huge upgrade over Robert, but I can understand letting him go.
Dan
7:41
Jeff: Appreciate your season's worth of advice/insights. I've hung on to Rutschman all season. Useless for a month or so. Need power with playoffs coming up. Drop him for Raleigh?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
Sure
RGM
7:42
Do you like sears @hou Tuesday in a 12teamer?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
No, find another option
Cle streamer
7:42
Trust Cobb to make at least one start (CHW), maybe two, or roll with Jared Jones for one start?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
I'm aiming for Cobb in several spots and hoping for better news on Monday. Teams have to be taking a chance on those great matchups (CWS, TB)
Tim
7:43
Where would Joey Ortiz rank on your list this week? The number look good over the last week and I could use cover for Jung with Bohm and Kim out
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
Near the top, He's got a higher Roster% for a reason.
Christina
7:44
All of the relievers on your list this week are taken and I need saves with only Martinez. I picked up Winckowski after his save the other night. Anyone else on the deep radar?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
Others in the Yankees bullpen
7:45
Jesus Tinoco (MIA) could be an option
Stanley Streamer
7:45
With Faucher out, is there a decent relief guy out there? 12-team points. Holds and saves.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Strahm, good and will get Holds and/or Saves
Cal
7:46
Horwirtz worth a pickup? Need a replacement for Seager.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
If he's the best option, do it. Check to see if Story is available in your league.
Tim
7:46
Who do you prefer on dynasty going forward, Povich or Braxton Garrett? standard 5 plus QS
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Neither
7:47
Povich I guess.
Kingpin
7:47
Standard 5x5 NL-only, currently in 2nd overall, looking for wins do I dare chance my ratios by starting Darvish with 2 starts @Sea & vHou over Schwellenbach with 1 start vLAD?
