2020-03-13 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Hi Jesse! Thanks for hosting the chat and all of your work! Do you have a date for when your top 200 prospects and top 600(?) dynasty ranks will be posted?
Relatedly, would you prefer Alexfri Planez or Daz Cameron? (Dynastic from Dynasty Land) | I am posting my top-500 dynasty prospects on March 19th. Throughout the season, I will update the Top 250. Meanwhile, the Top-500 Dynasty League Players will be arriving shortly as well.
Whether I prefer Planez or Cameron depends on league depth. In standard (14-16 teams, and even up to 20) or shallow formats, I prefer Planez, who has immense power upside with a touch of speed. His hit tool is highly questionable, though. In deep formats (24-30 teams), however, I prefer Cameron who should provide borderline-average production (.250/15/15) as soon as 2021. He has fallen through the cracks for many due to his poor showing last year. (Jesse Roche) |
2019-09-13 12:00:00 (link to chat) | Of Isaac Paredes, Daz Cameron, and Willi Castro who do you think is the most likely to be an above average regular? (Champdo from Sarasota ) | I'm guessing Cameron ends up highest on the Tigers list, but I'm not super in on any of the three. Diaz and Paredes were both OFP 55s coming into the season, but I'm less bullish on Paredes, and Daz has gone through another of his "intermittently forgot how to hit" periods. I like Castro personally, but he's more of a good utility type. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
2019-09-04 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Are there any players at the upper levels of the Tigers' system that can be impactful on the ML roster in 2020/2021? The AAA roster still has Candelario and Stewart, but there's Joey Morgan, Frank Schwindel (27yo, I know), and Daz Cameron among the hitters. The injured Beau Burrows is the only pitcher I could foresee if I squint hard enough. AA doesn't seem much better. Any hope for Tiger fans? (ironcityguys from urban area) | Good question. Not much to be excited about a Tigers fan unfortunately. Wouldn't mind seeing Schwindel soon. Cameron's past season, was... un-encouraging to say the least.
You got Casey Mize who is legit, but... yeah, not much to look forward to at the moment IMO. Sorry! (Tyler Oringer) |
2019-05-24 15:00:00 (link to chat) | I missed the boat on this latest run of propsect call-ups, but I'm still in a good position for playoffs in my points league.
Who is your current late-season stash that I can add and hold? (Mike G from Seattle) | Weird, I know a "Mike G" in Seattle! Take a look at Monte Harrison, Daz Cameron, Yusniel Diaz, Jorge Mateo, and Christian Pache, for starters. Keep tabs on Bo Bichette's health. Possibly get back on on Carter Kieboom if someone dropped him. I wouldn't necessarily add any of these now, but they should be on your radar. (Jon Hegglund) |
2019-03-11 16:00:00 (link to chat) | How would you rank Yusniel Diaz, Oscar Mercado, Yordan Alvarez and Daz Cameron by projected plate appearances this year, and what is rhe range / error bars? (PA prognosticator from PA) | Mercado, Alvarez, Cameron, Diaz, although Mercado's the only one who seems to have an obvious route to any significant PT, as the Astros have the depth to keep Alvarez in the minors and the Orioles and Tigers have no incentive to bring anyone up early. (Darius Austin) |
2019-01-23 12:00:00 (link to chat) | Daz Cameron had a strong year across two levels this season. How close was he to the 101 and what was the biggest factor in keeping him off? (Lougle from West Milford) | I'd guess he'd be top 150. He's a good fit with Lux actually, better shot to stick at a premium defensive position (and be above-average there), larger lingering questions about the hit tool. Again, more of a surety over upside play. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
2018-09-18 19:00:00 (link to chat) | What is the time frame for Daz Cameron being the starting CF for the tigers (rk7878 from WATERLOO) | He'll be up at some point in 2019. (Mike Gianella) |
2017-01-18 20:00:00 (link to chat) | Hey Bret, thanks for doing this. Is it safe to drop Daz Cameron in a 12-team dynasty with roughly 200 minor leaguers? (Clint from Houston TX) | It's defensible - you want a little more upside out of your last players in a 12-teamer. (Bret Sayre) |
2016-03-09 19:00:00 (link to chat) | Which prospect do you think is most likely to shoot up prospect lists (doesn't currently have to be on a top 100 list) (sdsuphilip from San Diego ) | Daz Cameron. (Mike Gianella) |
2016-01-29 11:00:00 (link to chat) | Any names on the last quarter or so of the list (or off the list entirely) that you could see as top-20 guys next year at this time? (Gotribe31 from VA) | I think Garrett has the ability to take that kind of leap, given his overall rawness due to playing basketball. Daz Cameron is another option there, and the easy answer (just inside of the group you mention) is Anderson Espinoza. (Top 101 Chat with Craig Goldstein) |
2016-01-20 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Can you please rank the following outfield prospects on how much you like them in terms of future fantasy potential? Andrew Benintendi, Trent Clark, Kyle Tucker, Daz Cameron and Cornelius Randolph. Thanks for the chat! (big time timmy jim from somewhere) | I would go Benintendi, Tucker, Clark, Cameron, Randolph. (Christopher Crawford) |
