| Date | Question | Answer |
|---|---|---|
| 2021-02-04 13:00:00 (link to chat) | For Dynasty purposes, why do you prefer Flaherty to Woodruff? (Buff from Colorado) | It is very close, but Jack Flaherty is nearly three years younger Brandon Woodruff, he plays in a more favorable pitching environment, and his primary secondary pitch (slider) is one of the best in the game. Woodruff has a more balanced arsenal and a better fastball, and a case certainly can be made that he has comparable upside with less risk than Flaherty. Both are excellent, but Flaherty's youth, home park & whiffs give him a slight edge. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2020-09-16 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Jack Flaherty and c paddack. Would you feel confident going in to next year with those two as the foundation of a nl only staff?theyve underwhelmed this year, cause for concern or small sample size? (Fred whitfield from Cleveland) | Flaherty yes, Paddack no. Paddack's issues aren't sample size related, imo. I don't want to overvalue his second half last year either, when he might have simply been out of gas, but he needs to fix his fastball a bit, and I'd like to see the curve be more consistent (he's made strides there) this year before paying the price people were throwing on him heading into this season. He's good for NL only, but not foundational just yet, imo. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2020-09-11 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Have to pick 3 of the following 5 keepers, standard 16 team roto: Yordan Alvarez (6th), Jack Flaherty (14th), Jeff McNeil (16th), Matt Olson (19th), Jesse Winker (22nd). Which three would you take? Leaning Flaherty, Olson & McNeil. Thanks! (Kimi from BK) | I agree with your order. I'd consider Winker but I think Olson's AVG jumps up in a full season. (Mike Gianella) |
| 2020-03-20 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Age old debate (well, maybe year old debate)....Walker Buehler or Jack Flaherty...who ya got? (Non-Essential Worker from At Work....) | Buehler easy. Better stuff and better command. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2020-03-18 13:00:00 (link to chat) | What's a good comp for George Kirby's high-end outcome? (Neil from seattle) | I checked in with Jeffrey because I am terrible at comps, and he suggested Jack Flaherty, potentially. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2020-02-28 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Who are some pitchers you're targeting in dynasty for contending teams that have a killer offense but meh staff. Im headlined by Bauer Greinke Marquez Woodruff with solid closers in a 14 tm 31 active 15 minors h2h roto. Have a ton of ammo in the minors to spend. (Chansen8895 from Salt Lake City) | Target the olds (Scherzer, Verlander, Morton, Darvish, Price, etc.). They come at an age-related discount in dynasty leagues and can provide excellent short-term production. If you want arms with more staying power (youth) absent the high cost of players like Jack Flaherty, then I like Mike Soroka, Frankie Montas, Max Fried, Zac Gallen, Julio Urias, and even Dylan Cease. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2020-02-07 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Is getting Kris Bryant and Drew Waters enough for Jack Flaherty in a dynasty league? Flaherty seems to be future stud ace.....but I love me some Waters. (Derek from MN) | In a standard 5x5 roto league, yes, it is more than enough. We actually rank Bryant ahead of Flaherty in our top 500. Pitchers are difficult investments in dynasty, even young studs like Flaherty. I know some of us (cough, Bret Sayre, cough) absolutely adore Drew Waters as well. I recently traded Flaherty, Brad Hand, and Brett Gardner for Yoan Moncada, Dakota Hudson, and Josh Lowe in RotoWire Dynasty Invitational 20-team expert league. You would be doing far better than I did!
In a points league, however, I would need more for Flaherty. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2020-02-05 12:00:00 (link to chat) | In a dynasty league, was offered Kris Bryant and Drew Waters for Jack Flaherty. What are your thoughts on that? (Jake from State Farm) | Give me Bryant and Waters. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2019-08-23 15:30:00 (link to chat) | In a points H2H dynasty league would you rather have Jack Flaherty or Chris Paddack? (Cole from Boston) | I think I'd go with Flaherty, but legitimately might answer differently next week. Tough call. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2019-06-05 21:00:00 (link to chat) | 3 Best Buy low hitters and SP right now? Re-draft. (Frank from Brooklyn ) | Among hitters, I'm buying Rougned Odor, Gregory Polanco and Kyle Seager (if you're in a deeper league). Among pitchers, I'd go after Jack Flaherty, Noah Syndergaard and (braces self) Yu Darvish. (Mr. President Bret Sayre) |
| 2019-04-19 18:00:00 (link to chat) | 14 team, H2H points, dynasty league... in a vacuum who wins: Jack Flaherty for Austin Meadows? (Bart from Minnesota ) | Other than the absolute elite starters, I'm always going to go with offense over pitching. I do like Flaherty's upside. Inside that vacuum and based on performance so far, I'd be looking to get a bit more in return along with Flaherty if I were dealing Meadows. (Scott Delp) |
| 2019-04-19 18:00:00 (link to chat) | Lot of stud SPs hurt or sucking... give me three to target a buy low on! (Harold from Boston ) | Jack Flaherty, Luke Weaver and Pablo Lopez (Scott Delp) |
| 2019-04-05 16:00:00 (link to chat) | Thoughts on Jack Flaherty? 20tm H2H points keep 8-12. Rebuilding a team I took over. Trade Kieboom and Brendan Rodgers for Flaherty? SP hard to come by. As of now prospects are borderline keepers. (Robbie Cano’s Bat from Queens) | Long term, Flaherty is a great target. I'm not sure he'll fully repeat 2018 this season, but as long as he improves his walk rate and avoids the home runs, there's a lot to like here. I'm not a huge fan of Kieboom, mostly because he doesn't do any one thing amazingly, but he's low risk. Rodgers has more flash to me, but I can't blame you for targeting young SP when they're hard to get. (Kevin Jebens) |
| 2018-12-19 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Who are some of your potential breakout pitchers for 2019 that you are targeting in trades/draft? (Gary Mack from in the back) | I've been going all out trying to get German Marquez, even though targeting a dude that makes half his starts in Colorado makes me a little queasy. I like Josh James a lot in Houston, and think 2019 could be the year Jack Flaherty and Mike Clevinger become stars. Also, it's become a running joke, but I think Kevin Gausman could finally put it together with a full season in a new spot. (Mark Barry) |
| 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) |
| 2018-04-05 20:00:00 (link to chat) | Am I the only one who thinks it is sad when a guy like Jack Flaherty has his career stalled because Adam Wainright doesn't know when to call it quits? I don't see the logic in continuing to toy with a broken down shell of a formerly good pitcher when you have a major league ready prospect who has nothing left to prove in the minors. (Mr. Fister from Arlington) | I don't think you're the only one. (Mike Gianella) |
| 2018-05-11 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Do you think Franchy Cordero is the the real deal, and if so what do you think is his ceiling-----he's certainly opening some eyes right now with his bat in the early going!
Also, what are your thoughts about Mike Soroka and Jack Flaherty as potential top of the rotation type guys? Thx. (bob m from pa) | I love Franchy, more than I probably should. He may settle in as a Puig type where the tools are louder than the results. Soroka and Flaherty are both good but I'm not so sure about top of the rotation. (Nicolas Stellini) |
| 2018-01-11 13:00:00 (link to chat) | I have 9 prospects on my dynasty roster and need to get it down to 5. My back end guys are Jack Flaherty, Chance Sisco, Jorge Mateo, Jose DeLeon, Yohander Mendez, and Zack Collins. Which two do I keep? Which ones might have the best trade value in a deep dynasty league? (edwar288 from Minneapolis) | Mateo is the obvious one from a fantasy standpoint. After that you have three arms without a clear out pitch, and two catchers that might not stick. I'd probably take Flaherty just based on floor, but I don't feel good about it. If you are short catching, hold on to Sisco. I don't feel good about that either. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2017-08-16 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Stephen Gonsalves and Jack Flaherty continue to tear it up in the minors. Do you see either receiving a September call up and making an impact at the major league level? (Tap Dancer from There) | Gonsalves just got to Rochester, so I wouldn't expect his call up to be imminent unless he continues to dominate. It looks like he's well below his innings output from last season, so if they keep hanging around the WC race, he could be an interesting option.
I'd be more surprised if Flaherty gets a call this year, with their rotation looking a little more crowded and Luke Weaver likely being the next in line at the Triple-A level. (Mark Barry) |
| 2017-06-13 12:00:00 (link to chat) | What are scouts saying on Jack Flaherty's performance this season? What is his base-case scenario within a big league rotation?
Thanks Craig! Love the articles (Matt from North Carolina) | They're impressed. It's not a top of the rotation profile, but he could a No. 3 starter (if you believe in such a designation). He's got a full arsenal to work with, and I've heard arguments for him to be a top-50 type. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2017-01-06 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Do you believe in Jack Flaherty as a long term prospect. Really up and down year last year. (RDBL2014 from Concord, CA) | He's on our Cardinals list, going up next week, but the stock is down a bit. He doesn't have the largest margins for error. I think the system has gotten better around him as well. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2017-01-06 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Saw debate on a site about Jack Flaherty vs Luke Weaver. Said Weaver better short-term, but Flaherty higher ceiling and more likely to be starter long-term. thoughts?? (Donald T from the Towers) | Yeah, I can co-sign that. They are close enough for all that to be well within the fudge factor though. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2016-09-08 19:00:00 (link to chat) | Thanks for the chat George. Can you rank the following young SPs based on talent (exlcuding proximity to majors)? Trevor Clifton, Jack Flaherty, Jaime Schultz, Touki Toussaint. Can I also get your thoughts on the good Basabe brother, and how he compares to other good young OFs (e.g. Acuna, Whitley, Sierra, Mieses, Robles)? GO SOX! (Anthonyb from Boston) | You got it Anthony! This is a group of starters that I think will all end up in the bullpen, especially Schultz and Toussaint. If I had to pick one, I guess it would be Clifton. I haven't seen Basabe in-person yet, I'm planning on it once he reaches Double-A Portland (in my neck of the woods). The numbers are impressive and he seems like an incredible athlete that is starting to translate those skills into tangible on-field production. I put Robles and Acuna in a higher class than almost any prospect left in the minors. Those two are both top-10-to-15 fantasy prospects for me right now. (George Bissell) |
| 2016-08-11 14:00:00 (link to chat) | I missed out on or traded numerous prospects in my NL-only keeper league. Who are some under the radar guys (it's a 10-team league, large reserve list)? They need to have an ETA of 2018 at the latest as the three year clock starts running on them as soon as they are drafted. (johnklein from east coast) | This is a tough question. Josh Hader is worth rostering in keeper leagues, despite the risky profile. I'm not sure what qualifies for "under-the-radar" in a 10-team league (as it depends on the size of the reserve list), but guys like Forrest Wall, Yusniel Diaz, Cody Ponce, and Jack Flaherty are guys I like. (J.P. Breen) |
| 2016-06-17 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Any thoughts on Jack Flaherty's uneven season so far? He is dominating now, wondering what the early issues may have been.
(RDBL2014 from Concord, Ca) | Flaherty got off to a poor start, but the issues were really concentrated in one disastrous outing, with a few so-so ones mixed in. Without having seen him or read a lot of eyewitness reports, the thing I've read about him on multiple occasions is that he lacks an offering that consistently grades out as plus. That can lead to trouble putting hitters away, particularly on days when the command isn't sharp, and stringing a few of those together gives you a slow start. It certainly looks like he's turned it around, though. (Daniel Rathman) |
| 2015-09-09 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Are you a believer in Reds' Cody Reed or Cardinals' Jack Flaherty? (Ricardo from DFW) | Flaherty more than Reed. Flaherty has three above-average pitches and the command could be plus, he could be something. Reed has improved quite a bit, slider is routinely plus like it was coming out of the draft, so there's some upside there, too. I just think Flaherty offers more upside and safety. (Christopher Crawford) |
| 2014-11-20 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Have you had the pleasure of seeing Jack Flaherty pitch? (Perry from Fort Mill, SC) | Absolutely. I'm based in Southern California and I saw him four times this spring after a few looks as an underclassman.
Interesting profile. Was a standout third base prospect as well, would flash power in BP but used an opposite field oriented contact approach in games. Not a big velocity guy, the highest I ever saw out of him was 92 and he generally sat 86-89. But he also threw well over 80% strikes, and more were quality strikes at that. He had the best command of any high school arm in the 2014 draft (and 2014 was one of the best years for HS arms in draft history). It wasn't just fastball command either, he had highly advanced feel for the slider as well, and he could drop his soft curveball in for called strikes (and to give hitters an additional pitch to worry about) and fool hitters with a solid changeup. The ultimate ceiling comes down to how much he develops and realizes his projection. He won't ever need to be a mid 90s guy to be a successful starter, but if he gets there then we could be talking about a valuable asset. More likely he's a mid rotation innings eater, but there is some ceiling here and he's in a good player dev system. (Todd Gold) |
| 2015-02-09 20:00:00 (link to chat) | Hey Nick who was your favorite guy from the 2014 MLB draft that did not make the list? (Mo from MN) | Touki Toussaint, Michael Chavis, Sean Reid-Foley, Jack Flaherty, Derek Fisher, Max Pentecost, Michael Kopech, Luis Ortiz, Forrest Wall. There's been a solid influx of low-minors talent. (Top 101 Chat) |
| 2014-11-24 13:00:00 (link to chat) | How many of your NL Central Top 25 do you expect to make it on the top 100 list when BP publishes it? Average would be around 16 or 17 assuming talent is evenly distributed, right? (Mike from Texas) | I did say I'd throw a top 25 NL Central Prospects list out there during this chat. With the understanding this is a work in progress (Mellen and I are starting to dig in on the framework for the Top 101), this is my own personal ranking of the prospects covered in our NL Central rankings:
1. SS Addison Russell 2. 3B Kris Bryant 3. RHP Robert Stephenson 4. OF Jorge Soler 5. OF Albert Almora 6. OF Stephen Piscotty 7. LHP Marco Gonzales 8. RHP Tyler Glasnow 9. RHP Jameson Taillon 10. OF Jesse Winker 11. OF/1B Josh Bell 12. RHP Alex Reyes 13. C Kyle Schwarber 14. RHP Michael Lorenzen 15. SS Orlando Arcia 16. OF Tyrone Taylor 17. OF Billy McKinney 18. RHP Pierce Johnson 19. SS Gleyber Torres 20. RHP Jack Flaherty 21. OF Yorman Rodriguez 22. C Reese McGuire 23. RHP Nick Howard 24. RHP Devin Williams 25. LHP Rob Kaminsky I think all of those guys will be in the discussion for the 101, and expect there to be some shuffling in order of course. Definitely more than the average of 16 or 17. (NL Central Top 10s With Nick Faleris) |
| 2014-11-04 18:00:00 (link to chat) | Can you give us a scouting report on Jack Flaherty? I recently saw some video and was impressed by his size, feel for his breaking ball, and his free and easy delivery. (Jim from KC) | I haven't seen Flaherty in person, but what I'm hearing from industry folks and our internal team suggests he could be a guy that blows up a bit in 2015. What he lacks in experience, he makes up for with early feel for a broad arsenal and good athleticism. I think there's a lot to like here. (Mark Anderson) |
