Date	Question	Answer
2019-06-21 15:00:00 (link to chat)	5x5 roto w OBP. I have Joey Gallo, Andrelton Simmons, and Jake Lamb getting ready to come of the DL so I'm going to have to drop some folks. Assuming no positional adjustments necessary, in what order would you drop these players: Profar, C. Hernandez, J. Donaldson, Jackie Bradley, DDS, JaCoby Jones, Cole Calhoun, Kyle Schwarber, Jake Lamb. (bmmcmahon from Newport Beach, CA)	Jones, Profar, Cesar, Lamb, JBJ, DeShields, Calhoun, Schwarber, Donaldson. (Jon Hegglund)
2017-01-18 20:00:00 (link to chat)	I'm trying to choose 3 of these guys to keep in my OBP Keeper League: Addison Russell, Jackie Bradley (his CF eligibility makes him more valuable in my league), Hanley Ramirez, Gerrit Cole, Alex Reyes, Danny Salazar. Any suggestions? (mattstupp from NYC)	Russell, Hanley and Reyes (by a nose over Cole). (Bret Sayre)
2016-05-17 14:00:00 (link to chat)	How good is Jackie Bradley? Is he now one of the top hitting outfielders in MLB? (cracker73 from Florida)	Bradley has certainly been hitting the ball with much more authority. He's been striking out less often as well. But let's see him do this for a longer period of time before we start anointing him. It's certainly been one hell of a show. (Nicolas Stellini)
2015-09-30 19:00:00 (link to chat)	Lately during the final weeks of this year, Mookie Betts has been playing RF with Bradley in CF. Do you see that as the norm next year? (Jake from Boston)	If you believe Jackie Bradley can hit enough to warrant serious playing time he should get the start over Mookie Betts in center and the Red Sox have one of the best defensive outfields in baseball. I need to see more from him before I get on the Jackie Bradley Jr. boat again. (Mauricio Rubio)
2015-08-25 13:00:00 (link to chat)	I know that over time these things take of themselves, but who is the Red Sox CF of the future in your eyes- Margot or Benintendi? (Steve from Newport (RI))	I would say Margot is the better prospect, but Benintendi probably has the higher floor, so...I'll say Jackie Bradley, Jr. (Christopher Crawford)
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)
2015-04-06 15:15:00 (link to chat)	How does the Red Sox outfield eventually shake out? (Chris from Florida)	Ramirez in left, Betts in center, and Castillo in right. I mean, how else could it shake out? They gave Ramirez a four year deal, they gave Castillo a six year deal, and Betts is Mookie!. There's no space for anyone else in the long run. For now, Victorino is here and healthy, but both those things will change soon enough. It's kind of sad how Jackie Bradley messed up his opportunity so badly, but he'll get another one with another team at some point in the next calendar year. (Matthew Kory)
2015-01-05 15:00:00 (link to chat)	Hey Jeff - What kind of hope should Twins fans have with Aaron Hicks? Did the Twins ruin him by rushing him to the bigs? (JJ from MPLS)	It's a possibility, though there's no way to know for sure. They could have taken their time with him and he still could never have hit in the big leagues. We don't know. Look at Jackie Bradley. You just never know. That said, rushing him the way they did certainly didn't help. I hate when teams do it, even if they have a need. It's even worse when it's on a bad team. (Jeff Moore)
2014-08-25 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Do you consider Jackie Bradley to be done in Boston? Also is Justin Masterson having a down year or should we expect bad numbers from him in the future? (Kevin from NJ)	I think they could give him another shot if they don't trade him, but given the crowded OF a trade wouldn't surprise me. Masterson looks like a mess right now. He is another pitcher (see my Miller answer earlier) who is having problems with his command in the zone. Is it fixable? Possibly, but I always felt like he had to be just right to be good anyway. (Mike Gianella)
2014-08-19 14:00:00 (link to chat)	He's not really a prospect anymore, but what do the struggles of Jackie Bradley say about the differences between Triple-A and the majors? Is it greater than we've previously thought? (mattymatty2000 from Portland (left one))	The MLB is hard. Bradley has the make-up and work ethic to make adjustments but hasn't shown them yet at the highest level. Bradley is still a top of the scale defender in CF and I think he will make his way back onto the big league roster. (CJ Wittmann)
2014-05-13 11:00:00 (link to chat)	I'm so good that I could be a better CF than Jackie Bradley. Sell JBJ and bring me to field the Triangle! (Mookie from Portland, Oregon)	No. You couldn't be a better CF than Bradley. Sorry, Mookie. You are tearing the cover off the ball in Double-A and it looks much better than expected. But the emphasis here should still be on the fact that its AA and not the majors, and there is a huge difference in talent. (Jason Parks)
2014-03-12 14:00:00 (link to chat)	Too much being made out of Grady Sizemore's training camp.I just don't buy the idea of Sizemore being a full-time player.Are the Red Sox really dumb enough to send back Jackie Bradley at AAA ? (Spirou from Montreal)	Well, I'm with you on being conservative about Sizemore, but it's not like Bradley disappears if he does go to Triple-A (and I don't know that he will). Pawtucket is only a 48-minute drive away. (Thanks, Google Maps!) (Ben Lindbergh)
2014-03-14 09:00:00 (link to chat)	Hey Mike, would you deal Aaron Sanchez and Jackie Bradley for Trumbo, Jim Johnson and Fernando Rodney??? Thanks (John from Boston)	Can you keep forever or do you have limits? In a keep forever that seems like a lot of ceiling (particularly with Sanchez) to give up for two uninspiring closers and Trumbo, but in a league with shorter term keeps that might be worth the gamble. My instincts tell me to pass, but if you can easily replace guys like Sanchez/Bradley in a farm draft, it might be worth it. (Mike Gianella)
2014-01-21 18:00:00 (link to chat)	Is George Springer going to get enough at bats to win AL Rookie of the Year? Who do you like for the award? (Frank from Houston)	Hi Frank: My guess is Springer gets a mid-season call-up and would have to put up incredible numbers to win the award if that's the case. I'm terrible at these sorts of questions; I picked Aaron Hicks last year for BP's preseason projections. I'll go with Jackie Bradley just because I can see the playing time for him and think he'll be solid. (Mike Gianella)
2014-01-21 18:00:00 (link to chat)	Is George Springer going to get enough at bats to win AL Rookie of the Year? Who do you like for the award? (Frank from Houston)	Hi Frank: My guess is Springer gets a mid-season call-up and would have to put up incredible numbers to win the award if that's the case. I'm terrible at these sorts of questions; I picked Aaron Hicks last year for BP's preseason projections. I'll go with Jackie Bradley just because I can see the playing time for him and think he'll be solid. (Mike Gianella)

2013-11-14 13:00:00 (link to chat)	If given a starting gig, what kind of offensive production should we expect from Jackie Bradley in 2014? (Shane from Boston)	It's not going to be blow you away. He'll show a good approach, a solid average in the .270-.275 range, a bunch of doubles, 10-12 home runs, 15 steals or so. I think he can contribute just fine, but I don't think he's going to be a huge offensive catalyst in 2014, or long term for that matter. (Mark Anderson)
2013-09-27 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Can you compare/contract Jackie Bradley, Jr. and Albert Almora? They sound similar both offensively and defensively. (Bill from Chicago)	I think Almora has the higher ceiling. His raw tools are a little louder than Bradley's. I like both players and think both will be very good everyday big leaguers, but I think Almora ends up a little better long term. (Mark Anderson)
2013-09-10 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Think Boston can go all the way without Ellsbury? I sure as crap can. (Polsox from Culver City, CA)	Any team that makes the playoffs can go all the way. The 2006 Cardinals learned us that. The Red Sox are going to make the playoffs (yes, I said it, er, wrote it) so they have a shot. I'm not sure it's a better shot than the Rangers or Tigers, or whomever comes out of the play-in game coughRAYScough. As for Ellsbury, he's a huge part of their offense. We have him at just over four wins on the season, and I've noticed an improvement in his defense and his baserunning just keeps getting better. That said, of all the positions, Boston has center field covered the most with Shane Victorino able to slide over and play there and Jackie Bradley, Jr. now up (and he can play defense as well or better than Ellsbury). So without Ellsbury, Boston still has a good shot, though just slightly less of one, if that makes any sense. (Matthew Kory)
2013-09-11 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Gerardo Parra is 11th in the majors in fWAR among OFs this season. That's pretty good... but do you think OF prospects with his ceiling (slightly below average offensively, well above average defensively) get their due as prospects? I think they're generally thought of as 4th OF types, and then they get buried on draft boards and prospect lists. Agree? (Ryan from insidethezona)	I agree with you. Even more than that, though, I would say OF prospects without loud tools but do everything pretty well. Think the Jackie Bradley, Jr. types. Parra falls into that category for me as well. I've had conversations with some scouts about that – saying that those types of OF prospects are not only underrated on prospect lists, but oftentimes around the industry as well. (Jason Cole)
2013-09-11 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Do you think Jackie Bradley will hit at a level above a guy like Denard Span, or is that a fair comparison? (Marcus from Greenville)	Similar average, probably a little more on-base skill, and more power. Not quite the same type of player, but I think Bradley will be a little better overall. (Jason Cole)
2013-08-14 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Jackie Bradley or Joc Pederson? (Armin from Salt Lake)	Oooh, good question. Give me JBJ by a hair. (Jason Cole)
2013-04-04 11:00:00 (link to chat)	assuming Jackie Bradley stays in the majors what would you expect from him this season? (Kyle from Utah)	He's going to make pitchers work. He might not hit for a high average in his first year, but he isn't going to give you outs. I think he could hit .260+ with good secondary skills while playing a very, very good CF. (Jason Parks)
2013-04-11 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Small sample small sample small sample small sample small sample small sample small sample small sample small sample. Tell us something we've learned this month that's not just a small sample. (Victor from Brownsville )	Well, it's all a small sample and I'm not a scout, so that's tough, but I'd say the A's look for real, Jackie Bradley looks over-matched, and the Astros and Marlins are going to compete for the title of the worst team we've seen in a while. (Matthew Kory)
2013-03-27 20:00:00 (link to chat)	Thanks for taking questions Bret. I have Yasiel Puig on my fantasy team. Given that we don't know when he'll get called up, is it worth it to keep him on my bench for later in the year, or should I drop him and pick up someone like Jackie Bradley? (Matt from Hartford,CT)	If it's a redraft, I'd forget about both guys and grab someone who will help you more this year. Puig needs more minor league time, and there's not much opportunity for him. Bradley is just not that special of an offensive player, and he needs more time too. Plus, he won't have a spot once Ortiz returns. Neither have played at Triple-A, and they both likely need to. If it's a keeper, I want Puig. (Bret Sayre)
2013-03-20 11:00:00 (link to chat)	Hi Cory, What type of year do you think Jonny Gomes will have ? (Brian from Boston)	He'll hit for power, strike out a lot, make a lot of friends and some enemies, and be exposed as an everyday player. The better Jackie Bradley does, the better it will be for Gomes. (Cory Schwartz)
2013-03-28 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Jackie Bradley and Aaron Hicks. Who has a bigger impact this year and long term? (Klochner from MN)	Different skill sets -- Hicks is more physical and profiles as a speed/power guy. Bradley is a bit more instinctual, with the game coming to him a little easier, profiling as an OBP over SLG offensive player. I'd say pick'em, but Bradley is probably a safer bet with a slightly lower ceiling. (Nick Faleris)
2013-02-25 11:00:00 (link to chat)	Is Jackie Bradley overhyped ? (Spirou from Montreal)	No. High quality up the middle talent. He might not be hyped enough. (Jason Parks on the Top 101 Prospects)
2013-02-25 11:00:00 (link to chat)	Thanks for the chat, Jason. Byron Buxton, Bubba Starling, Mason Williams and Jackie Bradley, Who has loudest tools? Who can be superstar? (Mason Williams from New York)	Buxton, Starling, Williams, and Bradley, but Bradley is safer bet to be impact player and Buxton has the highest ceiling. (Jason Parks on the Top 101 Prospects)
2013-03-01 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Hey Doug, enjoy your work. Who do you consider having the greater upside; Jackie Bradley, Addison Russell or Mike Zunino (dhorrell1956 from Winston-Salem, NC)	I think that Russell has the highest offensive ceiling of the group, and he has some of the greatest upside in the game if he can stick at SS. That said, the low offensive demands of catcher are such that Zunino could have the greatest impact on a future roster, especially given his defensive chops behind the dish. On the jukebox: The Yardbirds, "Smokestack Lightning" (Doug Thorburn)
2013-01-22 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Chances these outfielders will have starting jobs by the middle of May: Oswaldo Arcia ____ Jackie Bradley ____ Shane Peterson ____ Trayce Thompson ____ (Hoot Stromboli from Snowed In)	Hoot, I can't place percentages on each. I think Thompson is the most likely because the White Sox always seem aggressive with their prospects. I would put Peterson next-if only because I think an injury to Beltran could happen and it's too early for OSCAR-then Bradley and finally Arcia. (R.J. Anderson)
2013-01-16 13:30:00 (link to chat)	In what order would you rank the future fantasy prospects/production of: Aaron Hicks, Jackie Bradley, and Rymer Liriano? (Kai from SLO)	Liriano has the most raw offensive potential of the trio, but I'd put my money on Hicks ultimately providing the most fantasy value. (Mark Anderson)
2012-07-25 13:30:00 (link to chat)	Do you think the Red Sox would trade Ellsbury seeing as its unlikely he'll resign after the 2013 season because of his agent. And what do you think is wrong with the Sox? They seem to have a lot of great pieces. (Ben from Canada)	This time tomorrow, I'll be in Ben in Canada, as I'm about to make my semi-annual pilgrimage to BC. For now, though, I'm still Ben in Manhattan, so let me try to answer your question. I think the odds are against an Ellsbury trade. He might re-sign, and if he doesn't, he'll get them a comp pick in the 2014 draft. As my old pal Marc Normandin points out, the Sox are probably hoping that Jackie Bradley will be ready to replace him in center in the event that he leaves. As for the Sox' struggles: some answers can be found on the disabled list, but it doesn't help that Josh Beckett and Jon Lester (one of the most consistently good starters in baseball over the past four seasons) have been unexpectedly bad. Whether you want to assign any blame to this season's various clubhouse flare-ups is a decision between you and your god. You're right about the good pieces, though. Despite everything that's gone wrong, the Sox are still at .500 and technically in contention. (Ben Lindbergh)
