- Updated: August 15, 2016
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.

Zinkie: Schoop, Ramirez, Davis, Contreras. If you need power, grab Schoop. If you need speed, take Davis. If you want balance, opt for Ramirez.
@thealexmoretto: Will Taijuan Walker be back up in time to help my team down the stretch, or should I drop him?
Zinkie: He will likely be back, but he may not help you. You can drop him if there is someone on waivers you really want.

Zinkie: Depending on your league size, you can grab Blake Snell, Robbie Ray, Luke Weaver, …
