MLB.com fantasy expert Fred Zinkie fielded questions from fans during a live Twitter chat (at @fantasy411) on Monday. Read through the best of the Q&A below. Questions and answers have been edited for clarity.

@Dsmack83: Should I drop Jason Heyward for Hanley Ramirez or Stephen Piscotty?

Fred Zinkie: My recommendation is to stick with Heyward. But it would be great to bench him for now. Hitting second for the Cubs is a great spot.

@Jpray9: Should I drop Carlos Gomez for Ender Inciarte?

Zinkie: I’m fine with that switch. Gomez is really struggling.

@thegoldrushh: Please rank Derek Dietrich, Jackie Bradley Jr., Josh Reddick and Billy Burns for the rest of the season.

Zinkie: Burns, Reddick, Dietrich, Bradley.

Zinkie: To me, it’s a tossup between Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow.

@TCseven8: Who will have a better year — Eugenio Suarez or Josh Harrison?

Zinkie: I’ll take Suarez. He should hit 15-20 homers and steal 10-15 bases.

@JohnnyFo85: Should I add Julio Urias as soon as he gets called up to the Majors?

@Shadow2actual: Would you rather own Byung Ho Park …
