Date	Question	Answer
2018-04-05 20:00:00 (link to chat)	In a h2h 14 team/5 keeper points format I'm rostering both Jack Flaherty and Ryan McMahon. Trying to hold onto both for as long as i can but 5 man bench makes it tough Which of them is most expendable and which is more likely to become a possible trade chip for me this summer when coveted prospects become gold? Thanks (dylanrox from New Orleans)	In that format I'd drop McMahon. I think Flaherty is back sooner rather than later and will have more value as a trade chip. (Mike Gianella)
2018-02-05 12:00:00 (link to chat)	Thoughts on Ryan McMahon at this point? (Becca from Ballston, VA)	Man, I don't know? He was a late add to the 101, and I saw him a bunch this year (and last year). The improvements were clear. He's a high probability major leaguer. He's in the right park for his skill set, and I think he's a better third baseman than he gets credit for (and a worse first baseman weirdly). I just think the platoon and spin issues are going to be a limiting factor here. (Top 101 with Jeffrey Paternostro)
2018-01-23 23:00:00 (link to chat)	Always interested in thoughts on players who don't get drafted who wind up in the Top 100 by year's end....ie. Marwin, Pham, Merrifield types....cough up 3 or 4 names that might fit this mold for 2019, please. (Chris from Baltimore)	From outside the current top 300, these aren't necessarily top-100 candidates, but a few dudes I like off the top of my head to produce really nice late-game return on investment: Jose Martinez - as of right now he's in a bit of a logjam for playing time, but he's got some versatility and I like the bat a lot Scott Schebler - Dude's got a ton of pop, a teeny bit of sneaky speed, and while the profile's not overtly valuable these days in shallower leagues, you do still need 35-homer bats to keep pace Ketel Marte - Been a fan for a while, solid hitter, has gotten stronger and can drive the ball better now Austin Hayes and Ryan McMahon should both get opportunities as young hitters with talent. I haven't given up on Folty figuring out how to pitch with that stuff Kinda interested to see what Grichuk can do in Toronto (Wilson Karaman)
2017-11-03 13:00:00 (link to chat)	What can we expect from Ryan McMahon?? (sykklone from IA)	I liked what I saw from McMahon this year in Hartford (https://www.baseballprospectus.com/prospects/article/32512/the-call-up-ryan-mcmahon/), but I still wonder if the platoon and strikeout issues make him more of a second-division type or good bench piece. This would be less of an issue in an org that would let him play third base, as he's struggled at first (it's incredibly hard) and he's stretched at second. He's young enough that the Rockies could let him be more of a super utility type for a couple years before slotting him at the hot corner full time if Arenado leaves. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2017-09-29 12:00:00 (link to chat)	Who will have the better career, Ryan McMahon or Dom Smith? What grades would you give their hit & power tools? (Cole Whittier from Pasadena, CA)	I thought McMahon made large strides this year. Looked much more comfortable at the plate, was able to let his power play to all fields more. I guess there's an implicit question on if Dom's hit and power grades have changed based on his approach tweaks. He does appear to be sacrificing hit to get more of the raw power into games, which is not how we normally think of it. Anyway, guess I should answer the question. I think McMahon's defensive flexibility gives him a little edge here, or at least a higher floor. I had McMahon as 45/55 this year, and Smith as 55/50 coming into the season. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
