Date	Question	Answer
2020-09-02 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Hi Jesse! Love the rankings! I was wondering who the biggest risers and fallers where? Also is Luis Robert keeps this up for the rest of the season how high do you think he could rank? (Alex from Texas)	I will list the risers/fallers in my upcoming article, but here is a sneak peak: Risers: Kyle Lewis (+214), Anthony Santander (+170), Corbin Burnes (+135), Dominic Smith (+135) Fallers: Kirby Yates (-260), Oscar Mercada (-250), Mallex Smith (-150), Tommy Pham (-125) Plus, several players jumped from off to way up the rankings including Triston McKenzie (319) and Jake Cronenworth (354). As for Robert, he could climb into the top 15 by season end if he continues to rake. (Jesse Roche)
2019-05-15 13:00:00 (link to chat)	What is Calvin Mitchell and Lolo Sanchez's upside? They seem to be having good years. (Tom from Des Moines)	Mitchell I like as a second-division regular with a chance to be a touch more than that. With Sanchez it really comes down to whether you think he's a CF. If you do, I think you can get to like, the good Mallex Smith season, perhaps? (Craig Goldstein)
2019-05-01 12:00:00 (link to chat)	Thoughts on Braden Bishop's callup. Will he stick? Thanks. (Old Timer from Raleigh NC)	There's probably a Spidermen pointing at each other joke about optioning Mallex Smith for Bishop. That's probably a little unfair to Mallex, but outside of his gaudy 2018 which was a little bit BABIP driven I don't know if there's much difference here. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2019-03-11 16:00:00 (link to chat)	Keeper question. 12-team 5x5 roto with OBP and SV + ½ Holds, $260 budget, keep 6 plus one minor leaguer. Definitely keeping Gallo $11, Hoskins $11, Acuna $1, Buehler $1, and Vladito as my minor leaguer. Need to choose 2 more from the following 6: $14 Puig, $9 Taillon, $7 Corey Seager, $1 Nimmo, $1 Marquez, $1 Mallex Smith. Definitely going for it this year so current year value is key. Thanks! (Brian24 from Newport Beach, CA)	I'm not as high on Marquez as a lot of analysts seem to be because I think Coors can ruin even the best pitcher's outings a lot of the time, but $1 is too good to pass up. Taillon is probably the second, but $1 is also great value on Smith if you'd rather save the money for the auction. (Darius Austin)
2019-03-08 16:00:00 (link to chat)	Keeper question. 12-team 5x5 roto with OBP and SV + ½ Holds, $260 budget, keep 6 plus one minor leaguer. Definitely keeping Gallo $11, Hoskins $11, Acuna $1, Buehler $1, and Vladito as my minor leaguer. Need to choose 2 more from the following 6: $14 Puig, $9 Taillon, $7 Corey Seager, $1 Nimmo, $1 Marquez, $1 Mallex Smith. Definitely going for it this year so current year value is key. Thanks! (Brian24 from Newport Beach, CA)	BP staff is very much in on Marquez this year, and for a buck he's a lock. Mallex should be good for SB and BA, a good value at $1, so if you want to lock down SB and save salary, that makes sense. But if you believe in Taillon's second half, he's provide a ton of value. Puig also a nice pick in Cincinnati. Too many keeper options is a great problem to have! If this year is essential, I'd say Mallex and Marquez to give you a solid foothold on a scarce category and save your salary cap space to spend freely on "win now" pieces. (Kevin Jebens)
