BP Chats

Date	Question	Answer
2020-02-21 13:00:00 (link to chat)	How do you see the acquisition of Brock Holt impacting the PT in Milwaukee? Will he become the primary 3B or be used at 2B if Huiara continues to struggle defensively? Maybe the roaming fill-in for all positions to keep players fresh? (sportsguy21792 from Madison)	I see Holt simply as a utility piece, and even SS insurance in case Urias' injury lingers. As of now, 3B is a patchwork of Sogard, Gyorko, Holt, and maybe Healy. I do not think Holt represents a threat to playing time for Hiura whatsoever. (Jesse Roche)
2016-08-08 14:00:00 (link to chat)	One year H2H league.Waiver wire has Bregman,Soler,A.Russel thinking of dropping M.Saunders,Holt,Cozart.Could you rank the top row,First year in league (Chesty from New Bern,N.C)	Holt as in Brock Holt? Dude. Drop Holt and grab Bregman right now. Go. Do it. Why are you still here? Begone. Now. Skiddadle. (Nicolas Stellini)
2015-06-16 20:00:00 (link to chat)	"Brock Holt" has two anagrams: "lock broth" and "throb lock" - which do you prefer and why? (Holly from Ballpark)	This is a Good Chat Question. I prefer throb lock for impolite but obvious anatomical reasons. (Ben Carsley)
2015-06-16 20:00:00 (link to chat)	If the Red Sox were characters on Game of Thrones, who would they be? thanks (Bill from Los Angeles)	This is super played out ... ... and as such, right in my wheelhouse. Xander Bogaerts: Jon Snow Mookie Betts: Danaerys Targaryen Ben Cherington: Ned (tried to do the right thing, will probably lose head) Wade Miley: Catelyn (doesn't do much but yell) Rick Porcello: Robb Stark (handsome, ineffective) Clay Buchholz: Sansa (WHAT EVEN ARE YOU?) Eduardo Rodriguez: Arya (so much potential) Brock Holt: Bran (takes a lot of forms) Joe Kelly: Rickon (why do you exist?) Mike Napoli: Hodor (...yep) Christian Vazquez: Benjen Stark (plz come back) John Henry: Tywin (still calling the shots) Dustin Pedroia: Tyrion (most watchable/resourceful) Larry Lucchino: Cersei (...) David Ortiz: Jaime (lost a step but still badass) Blake Swihart: Tommen (keep trying, little guy) John Farrell: Stannis (stern but no one seems to listen) Melisandre: Pablo Sandoval (is your power real or what) Our Hopes/Dreams: Shireen Hanley Ramirez: The Hound (unlikeable but powerful) Koji Uehara: Brienne (still rooting for ya) Daniel Nava: Pod (you too!) Junichi Tawawa: Bronn (just gets stuff done) Allen Craig: Janos Slynt (just doesn't) Shane Victorino: Jorah (always hurt) Jackie Bradley: Theon (has he not suffered enough?) Justin Masterson: Beric Dondarrion (should not have been revived) Craig Breslow: Doran (smart, ineffective) Alejandro De Aza: sandsnake 1 Alexi Ogando: sandsnake 2 Tommy Layne: sandsnake 3 The Yankees: Roose Bolton The Rays: Ramsay Bolton The Blue Jays: The Night's King The Orioles: Mance Rayder And two for the book readers ... Yoan Moncada: Young Griff Rusney Castillo: Patchface (Ben Carsley)
2015-05-13 13:00:00 (link to chat)	In my Yahoo league I am building for next year and thereafter. My roster is Russell Martin, Kendrys Morales, Josh Harrison, Brock Holt, Brett Gardner, Dexter Fowler, Gregory Polanco, Coco Crisp, Carlos Ruiz, Travis Snider, Kyle (and Corey) Seager, Jason Heyward, Carlos Correa, Desmond Jennings, Javier Baez, Matt Harvey, Carlos Martinez, Jimmy Nelson, Edinson Volquez, Jonathan Paplebon, Chris Heston, Noah Syndergaard, Lucas Giolito, Julio Urias, Jose Berrios, Matt Cain and Sean Doolittle. 8 keepers allowed. Comments? Suggestions? (TimLandry from Montreal Quebec Canada)	Keep Matt Harvey eight times. (Christopher Crawford)
2014-09-15 19:30:00 (link to chat)	Brock Holt versus Jackie Bradley Jr. versus XB versus Mookie Betts. I see three spots at best for them (although I suppose that Napoli, Victorino, Ortiz, Cespedes and Vazquez could round out a lineup, squeezing out Craig, Middlebrooks, etc.) Who do you see missing the cut? (prophet from Undisclosed)	Bogaerts isn't sitting for anyone, and Bradley isn't starting over anyone. Betts is either going to start in RF next year, start in Pawtucket and wait for someone to get hurt or get shipped off for pitching this off-season. The guess here is Victorino or Craig gets moved, Betts starts in RF and Bogaerts at SS, with Holt on the bench and Bradley in Triple-A. (Ben Carsley)
2014-08-15 14:00:00 (link to chat)	Who makes up the Red Sox infield in 2015? (Jim from Boston)	Pedroia! So that's one. I have a hard time imaging they'll move Napoli, so he'll probably be at first. Bogaerts will be at short or third. I'm guessing third, but that's one of the things the Red Sox hope to learn over the next two months. At short then, Deven Marrero? Things are easier if Bogaerts stays at short both because third is an easier position to fill and because the team has Will Middlebrooks, Brock Holt, Garin Cecchini, and probably someone I'm forgetting. (Matthew Kory)
2014-06-26 14:00:00 (link to chat)	Rank these guys: Brock Holt, CJ Cron and Steve Pearce (PJ from Boston)	Cron, Holt, Pearce. I'd watch to see if Cron is traded for an arm this summer, though. That would potentially change things. (J.P. Breen)
2014-06-13 13:00:00 (link to chat)	In the very deapest of dynasty leagues, would you consider Kevin Kiermaier, Jesus Montero, Brock Holt, Brandon Barnes, Bobby Abreu, Eugenio Suarez, Rene Rivera, Steve Pearce, and Juan Lagares. In what order would you rank them of those you would consider? (Donald from Orlando)	I'd look at Kiermaier, and Holt most among that group. Kiermaier has some nice PT with Myers down and Holt seems to be ready to play anywhere to stay in the lineup. There isn't a lot of disparity in the group, but for this year only, I'd still give Abreu a look, too. Beyond that, Suarez and Montero would be my next two. (Paul Sporer)
2014-06-11 12:00:00 (link to chat)	I'm roughly as real as Daniel Nava was, right? (Brock from Boston)	Oh, Brock... /swoons. Brock Holt the jack of everything, master of nothing for the Red Sox is hitting .341/.381/.472. I'm buying Nava more than Holt though. Nava hits right handed pitching well. I still believe that even though he's gotten off to a rough start. Getting shipped back and forth to Triple-A hasn't helped while Holt, because he's an infielder (or, today, maybe an outfielder) who could fill in for Will Middlebrooks got regular playing time. Holt has some skills, versatility, some pitch recognition, and also versatility, but he's got no power at all. He's not a starter, but he's a heck of a fill-in. One of the only guys in Boston hitting right now. (Matthew Kory)
