The Week 4 call
Points leagues, Week 4 (Oct 19-25): start Seth Jarvis, narrowly. Both count 1 games left in Week 4 (Oct 19-25), so it comes down to value per game: 2.4 fantasy points to 2.3.
Categories leagues: Seth Jarvis again, 2.0 category value for the week to 1.9.
Over CAR's last 5 games Seth Jarvis played 1 game, 15:15 a night with 0:41 on the power play, no regular power-play unit.
