Welcome to the fantasy baseball today podcast from CBS Sports. One, one pitch, basketball pulled, and fast. Alboros and toward the corner. Got a fantasy question? Email fantasy baseball at cbsi.com. Get ready to win your league. Well, fantasy. Now here's Adam, Scott Heath and Chris.

Craig Kimbril is a Chicago Cup. Welcome to fantasy baseball today. It is Thursday, May. I don't want to look down. May 6th. It's not May. Oh, June, that's right. It's June. I messed up that badly. It's June 6. Wow, I should have looked down to check the date. I never remember the date. Very strange. But it is Craig Kimball Day. How about that? We welcome me to fantasy baseball today. Cubs fans should be pretty excited right now. Pedro's strope owner should not be. But Craig Kimbril, he's about 90% owned. And we'll obviously talk about him. I got two other closers, two other relievers that could become closers soon, in my opinion, that I want to talk to you about. Also, some deep. Deep League guys, some trade talk, and much more.

You heard from Scott White. What up, Heath Cummings? Hey, how's it going? I think it's pretty good. Pretty good, yeah. I'm glad that was your ice cream last night. It was delicious. The mint chip banana combo is so good.

Like, what in the world is wrong with you? Listen, I promise. Just take a leap of faith. Next time you get ice cream, get a... No. A scoop of mint chocolate chip. First off, I don't eat ice cream. Okay, well, then why am I taking advice from a guy who doesn't eat ice cream?

Like, that's crazy, you communist. I'm not a communist. I don't know why I caught. Mid chocolate chip and banana combo is really, really good. I swear that they'd go together perfectly. Just give it a shot. Let me know what you think. No one's going to.

This was the situation where you're getting one scoop of each, right? So it's not like you were mixing that. One scoop of each, but I was having both of them in one. white, Scott. Oh, well, that's mixing that. So you were making. He's a monster. He's a monster. He's may be a communist, but you're a monster.

Hey, the Cubs bullpen could be a monster. You know, if Strope is right, if Morrow comes back at some point, if Csheck is right, and now Craig Kimbril throw him in the mix three years, $43 million. Just real quick before we get into Kimbril, Carlos Carrasco is out indefinitely with a blood condition. So very sad news yesterday. He's been feeling fatigued. Certainly an explanation for his struggles. And they haven't released the condition,

but they say they expect him back this season. But do you think Carlos Grasco is dropable, guys? No. First of all, his struggles weren't that bad. And second of all, they expect him back this season. And he's going on the IL. Why would you drop him? Yeah, I mean, I'm still in leagues where I only have two IL spots,

and I think some of them Scott commishes. So I don't know that the IL thing necessarily. makes it better. I put him below Clevenger, obviously, below Luis Severino. The one I struggled with is Corey Kluber, and I've just got them

back to back, but neither are in my top 60 starting pitchers rest of season. So I think it's going to depend on how many IL spots you have, how deep your league is as to whether you're holding on to him. I hope he comes back. I hope he's just fine. But the struggles were pretty terrible. No, they

weren't. They really weren't. His strikeout rate It was great. It was mostly just home runs. He had given up too many of them, which caused his ERA to spike. But the rest was, I mean, he had some really great starts this year. He's had some. Why do we do this? I mean, why do we, like, Carlos Carasco was obviously bad for fantasy owners.

Like, let's not, you know, if you were starting Carlos Carasco, he was bad for you. I understand that the underlying stats showed that there was, you know, he was still just really a victim of home runs. But the real fantasy stats, the real fantasy production was bad. add. I don't agree. I don't agree. 10.9 strikeouts per nine innings. 498 ERA. We're not even talking Chris Archer here. This is 498. Yeah, I know. But ERA is so over. At a time when pitchers so rarely go six inning. I mean, listen to some of these stars Carlos Carrasquez had five innings, 12 strikeouts, seven innings 12 strikeouts, six and two thirds, eight strikeouts, seven and two thirds, nine strikeouts. Seven innings six strikeouts. Six and a third, six strikeouts.

That's a lot of point. Four and six with a five ERA and a 1.3 whip. That's bad. Yeah, he's not even a top 50 starting pitcher. I don't even know if he's a top 50. I just think you're oversimplifying it. I think you want me to oversimplify it. He's not even a top 60.

He was a fixture in my lineups, never considered sitting in. I understand that, but he is, but that's because of his track record, not because of how well he was pitching. I would agree 100% with Carlos Carrasco's performance was not bad enough for me to consider dropping him out of the ace tier. I would agree 100% with Carlos Crasco's peripherals were encouraging, and I still think he's a very good pitcher. I don't think there's an argument for Carlos Carasco's production was anything other than bad.

Yeah, outside of the top 70 in fantasy points. Like if you were outside of the top 70, you are not good. Well, we won't beat a dead horse. Craig Kimbril. Craig Kimbril, three-year deal with the Cubs. sort of a side note in this is they are using Ben Zobrist's salary to sort of help, you know, free up some money. So I don't know that Ben Zobris is coming back, which could mean... I don't think he is.

Yeah, so that's, yeah, that's also sad news. But that means more played appearances for Addison Russell and for David Bodie, I guess, who had a big day yesterday. But Craig Kimball, where do you guys rank him in your rest of season rankings? And I should say it's probably going to be about two weeks before he's... closing games for the Cubs. Scott, you first, sir? I have him, so among true relievers, I have him 12th. If you factor in the Sparbs, Brandon Woodruff,

and Tyler Glass now, I have him 14th. I may have him ahead of Glass now in Roto, but obviously top five potential. I think too much has been made about how he's, you know, not the same pitcher or whatever. His velocity was down one mile per hour on average last year, So he's still averaged almost 98 on it. His season long numbers were certainly in the range of being the top reliever and fantasy.

The biggest reason he's that far down is because we don't exactly know when he's actually going to be on the mound. Joe Madden this weekend was asked in a hypothetical scenario how long it would take. He said he thought he'd need like three weeks in the minors. So, you know, I want to see him back. I want to see him pitching well and make sure it's not going to be a Greg Hollins. situation where they hurry him and his command is all off because of it. But top five potential, clearly. And you're going to start to get a payoff from that pick here very soon.

Okay. He's hitting me to add. I've got him basically, I agree with most of the things Scott said. I've got him ninth amongst relivers, 10th amongst all RP eligible pitchers in points leagues. And I think there's a chance that he's as high as number two three in six to eight week. Kimbril, people might be concerned.

One, because, you know, the Greg Holland situation, like Scott mentioned, Holland was signed on opening day last year, and then he was terrible, and he's been pretty good since. But, you know, it's not easy to miss this much time. But also, 457 ERA after the All-Star break, gave up seven run runs in 10 and two-thirds during the post-season. I think the post-all-Star break, 457 ERA, is a little deceiving. It was mostly a bad six-game stretch. And then after that, he was really good, except for one non-saint.

He allowed one hit September. Right, right. He turned things around. But I understand people are a little nervous. You know, a lot of innings, I guess, last year with the deep postseason run. But what are you going to do? You're going to ignore Craig Kimball? Obviously, he was the third best closer last year.

He was the second best closure the year before. All right, Wednesday standouts. We've got a lot more news coming up. And like I said, some trade talk. I'm going to try to grade your trades at the end of the show. I said that yesterday and it didn't work. But I'll try harder today. Fantasy baseball at CBSI.com.

Let me ask you about Jimmy Nelson. 76% owned. Got roughed up by the red hot marlins. You don't want to mess with the marlins right now. Five runs, four earned and three innings, three walks, two strikeouts. He's 76% owned. Can we give Jimmy Nelson a pass? Should we hang on to him a little bit longer or is he dropable?

I don't want to drop him after one start. If you went and added him based on almost nothing so far, I think you give him at least one more start. Listen, the problem, and we talked about this earlier in the week, is we've really only seen Jimmy Nelson be good for like two-thirds of one season in his career. So he's going to have to show something relatively soon, but I'm going to give him at least one more. He's at Houston. Hey, who are you going to drop him for? Mike Leap, you know, like.

Right. Well, how about... His velocity was down too. miles per hour since we last saw him healthy. So, you know, if it stays that way, I could see it being a problem. That said, Mike Fultenevich's velocity was down for his first several appearances back from the DL, and then suddenly one day it wasn't. Right.

And I said DLs. Hopefully he's going to be better than Voltonovich. Oh, Fultonovich is on the right track. His last three stars. I mean, the last one wasn't so good because he gave up three home runs. I'm spoiling my by-low here. So we'll get into there. Okay.

Yeah, Stephen Straussberg's start of the year with kind of alarming velocity. That's back. So don't make too much out of one start. You know, I think I'd probably drop Nelson for Nick Povetta, though. What about you? I'd rather have Povetta, yeah. Yeah. Okay.

How about John Duplanteer or Nelson? Nelson. That was a pretty interesting start from DuPontier yesterday. I think I'd say Nelson, but Duplante deserves to be on the radar. Let's start against the Dodgers, just like Povettas was against the Dodgers. Yeah. Five innings, three hits, two and runs, one walk, seven strikeouts, 11 swinging strikes, which isn't a great number, but he only threw 71 pitches.

He had 77 pitches last time, and which was a decent start, so he seems to be pretty efficient. And of his 11 swinging strikes, two each on the change-up curveball and slider. So he seems to have that varied arsenal that can allow pitcher to pitch deep. It was funny as he didn't throw any of those pitches very often, but he got two swinging strikes on each of them. So I don't know. He obviously has a good minor league track record. I think he deserves to be on the mixed league radar, John DuPlan-Dia.A.

And he's got two starts next week at Philadelphia and at Washington, and only 20% owned. All the last thing I'm going to say for my standouts, Jose LeClerc and Taylor Rogers, I think have a chance to become the primary closers soon for their team. I don't know. Lots has to happen,

but Jose LeClerc in his last 10 appearances has a 154 ERA, two walks and 23 strikeouts in 11 and 2 thirds. Sean Kelly blew a save last night. Kelly's been good. You know, one blown save doesn't make a bad season. But Blake Parker was bad last night. So if you need saves,

Keep an eye on Taylor Rogers, and Jose LeClerc is already 58% owned, but I think there's a chance he gets back into that job. Heath, how about a Wednesday stand out from you, sir? I'll go with Vlad Jr., who had been kind of the subject of conversations about Austin Riley's value and whether Vlad was going to deliver on what we were hoping for this year. He did go deep last night against the Yankees, which I think counts as two. So it was good to see. and it was not necessarily, it was kind of like his dad a little bit.

It wasn't necessarily a great pitch. Yeah, off a guy who had like 13 straight scoreless appearances or scoreless innings or something. Then Zach Britton and he clobber, you see that video. Oh, look at that video. Watch our video show on YouTube, CBS Sports. Look for it. All right, so good, anything you want to say about Vlad or just like, hey, good job. Keep at it.

Good job. Keep at it. Let's get that OPS over 800. Okay. Scott, you got to stand out? Yeah. I'm trying to decide what my favorite standout here is. I guess Martin Perez, not because he was good, but standing out in a bad way.

Four and two-thirds inning, six hits, two earned runs. Two walks to one strikeout. And what's notable about that is over his last three starts now. He actually has one more walk than he has strikeouts. This is two really bad starts in a row for Martin Perez. And I'm afraid it may be a situation where the gimmick is no longer going to be enough for him because, you know, obviously the big arsenal change coming into the season. He didn't really feature a cutter before, and it's like his most thrown pitch this year.

And I'm thinking maybe the scouting report's gotten out. And, you know, the element of surprise is no longer working for him. He's going to have to come up with something else. Yeah. So I am pretty close to dropping Martin Perez here. Same here. I think he's the worst pitcher on one of my teams. and the second someone, in fact, I'll look for John Duplanteer right now

and probably take that shot if he's available in this league. All right, we got a lot more to get to. I'm going to give some love to the people out there in deeper leagues that need somebody out. Another pitcher that I think is pretty interesting right now that you might want to take a look at. Talk about that right after this quick break on fantasy baseball today. Anabal Sanchez had another good start, and he is 28% owned, and he probably headlines the list of deep league pitchers.

that want to talk about. These guys are owned in less than 30% of leagues. So I guess I would say Duplanteer headlines, but Anabal Sanchez, Sandy Alcantara, John Duplanteer, Dylan Covey, I doubt we're interested in him. And Cal Quantrell might be interested in him. Paul Quantrell's son has two starts next week at San Francisco at Colorado.

He's 8% owned. Heath, what do you think about? Annabal, Alcantara, Duplanteer, Dylan Covey, and Cal Quantrell. For me, DuPontier and Alcantara are the two most interesting. And Alcantara has really shown a little bit more consistency. I think three of his last four starts now have been better than we would expect from someone with his ownership. I think Annabal is fine, too, in that deep league sense, and maybe should be owned in 35 to 40% of leagues.

I have a little more hope that possibly Alcantara or DuPontier could be not just viable in deep leagues, but good in deep leagues. but good and deeply. Scott, how about you? Who are your favorites there? I'm still not sure there's enough strikeout potential there for Alcantara. And I think the second most interesting, the one who I perceived to have the most upside. I mean, maybe he may even have more upside than DuPlanthe, honestly, is Cal Quantrell. He had a great start before getting options.

and then he's come back here because somebody went on the IL. So two really good starts in a row, seven strikeouts of five innings this time, nine strikeouts and six innings last time. And he had 15 swinging strikes, fastball slider changeup. It was that relatively even distribution of the swinging strikes that I like to see that we've seen from Brandon Woodruff before he took off. I think that's the makings of somebody who could step up and become you know, consistent six-plus innings guy.

What about, okay, so Sanchez, I just want to say, last year, like last year he had a 283RA, a 108 whip and a strikeout per inning. It was a shockingly good year for Anabal Sanchez. That was over 136 and two-thirds. His previous start was six innings, zero runs, seven strikeouts at Atlanta. This start was five and a third, one run, seven strikeouts against the White Sox. Now, after the Atlanta start, I think it was, I think it was his manager.

It may have been him. I don't know. Somebody said, that's the Anibal Sanchez from last year. He's doing the same things he did last year. He's mixing his pitches. He's throwing low in the zone. So I just want to bring that up. I know he's not going to pitch a lot of innings.

Yeah. But he was really good last year. Stunning. All year. Never stopped, basically. So, all right, there we go. There's some Deep League guys. Quancho's interesting.

He could be a more exciting version of Csies to Bathe. Brian Anderson and David Bodie are two hitters in Deepwater. Super Leagues that might be available. Brian Anderson, his last 18 games. He's a 988 OPS. He's homeward in two straight games. And David Bodie doesn't play that much. He's 8% owned, but he went 4-4-for-4 with a home run and seven RBIs.

Are you guys looking at either Brian Anderson or David Bodie? I think Anderson's the most interesting because he was actually okay last year. In fact, good for most of the year. So, yeah, I didn't hear you say what Anderson's ownership is. 27%. But, yeah, it's a little bit too low. another guy, a deep league hitter that has kind of flown under the radar over the last two weeks or so. Keon Broxton, since he got to Baltimore, has basically played every day, has three stolen bases and three home runs.

His average is going to be terrible. He's going to strike out too much. But if he plays every day, he's going to be a good power speed source. And yesterday when I wrote about him, I think he was 6% owned. Okay, cool. And this guy's not Deep League, but I just want to bring him up again. Malik Smith. We keep saying Malik Smith's name, three.

Three more hits yesterday. Is he 100% owned yet? I don't even know if he's 60% owned. I've written about him like four days in the last two weeks. Come on. I'll let you know. We talk about him every show. Would you guys just listen to Ad Malick Smith?

Right. I mean, come on. So last guy. So we have a cool segment on the Sunday video show on fantasy baseball today. CBS Sports H.Q, 3 to 6 p.m. Eastern on Sundays. It's called the Wally Pit Player of the Week. And that is a guy that we think is going to get. Wally Pip, going to get replaced.

So my nominee for the Wally Pitt player of the day, and I'll probably use it again on Sunday, is Austin Barnes. Is he getting Wally Pip by Will Smith, whose walk-up music is, in fact, the theme song to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air? Will Smith is batting 286 with two home runs in six

games. Austin Barnes is on the IL and having a really bad year. Is Will Smith going to be the catcher for the Dodgers? And if he is, he certainly should be owned it more than what did I say, 9% of leagues. What do you guys think, Scott?

He may deserve to be. I mean, I don't know the defensive comparison between the two. Obviously, we don't care about that in fantasy, but it would impact playing time. He's only been playing about half the time with Barnes down. Russell Martin's been playing the other half of the time, and neither of those are going away, Martin Barnes. I don't imagine the Dodgers are just going to DFA one of them.

I don't imagine. They're going to carry three catchers. So probably not. This is probably not going to happen for Will Smith. I'd like it to, though, because there is more offensive potential here than for Barnes or Martin. And offensive potential is rare at catcher. Adam, it sounds like Scott wants you to pump your brakes. Such a Carlton Banks answer there.

I think it's just the two of us here getting excited about Will Smith. He's really been getting jiggy with it in the Wild Wild Wild West. and I'm pretty excited. Oh my God. Were you like jotting down notes as I was talking? Was that just totally off the head? How many references? You didn't listen to a lot of Will Smith in your childhood?

No, I guess my brain just doesn't work that fast. I don't know. Like, that was impressive. It was really good. I just dropped Martine Perez for Annabal Sanchez, by the way, thanks to my own hard-hitting sharp analysis. That's a very good decision. Thank you.

Thank you. News and notes. Chris Sail through his second immaculate ending of the season. More on him later. Zach Granky's start is being pushed back a day due to his stiff neck. Robinson Canoe came off the IL, but he re-agravated his quad. He doesn't think he'll need to go back on the IL, but we shall see. Please read the next thing.

Don't skip it. Please read the next thing in the notes. Outdated note. Atlanta is not a finalist for Craig Kimball, according to MLB Network. Hey, that's a great news for Luke Jackson. He's the big winner here. What is so fun? Why are you trolling Scott

Because they didn't get Craig Kimbril I was kind of trolling Scott And kind of trolling you And like when both of those opportunities present themselves I just can't help myself For leaving it in the notes Yeah

Yeah it probably shouldn't have done that Cross section of trollage You know I'm very disappointed I'm very disappointed In every contending team That needed Relief help

Which is almost all of them I'm not sure I would have given Greg Kimbril a three-year deal over $43 million. That's a big commitment. I would have. Like I was thinking 235 is what I was thinking would be a great

contract like every contending team should jump on 235. So, you know, 343. I don't think like it's not going to be the kind of investment that cripples your future plans. Like have a little faith in your own creativity. Assume

I mean Kimberley's even bad. This is like a $1 million per dollar raise from what he was making with the Red Sox. Shoot, why weren't the Red Sox doing this? I don't know. He's not even that old. No. I don't know. All right, Buster Posey's on the IL with a hamstring strain.

Matt Strom's on the IL with a rib strain. Fernando Tatis is coming back today. Tommy Fam has missed, I think, five straight games, but he expects to play today. Adam Jones will avoid the IEL. Mitch Moreland will likely be back tomorrow. Charlie Blackwin started a rehab assignment. Aaron Judge could be back on June 29th. That's when they're in London to face the Red Sox.

Cesar Hernandez led off for the Phillies. Pittsburgh starting pitcher Rookie Davis is going to start on Friday. I'm guessing we don't have any interest in Rookie Davis, correct? No, let's wait. When he loses his rookie eligibility, does they have to change his first name? That wasn't as good as your Will Smith thing. D. Gordon, Ryan Healy, and J. P. Crawford, are expected to begin rehab assignments this weekend.

All right, Jose Atouva ran the bases. You say Kikuchi is going to start against the Angels on Saturday. You won't be in my lineup. Ramone Loriano, although I will say the last time Yusay Kikuchi had sort of a break, he had his best start of the season. He was throwing much harder. Ramon Luriano's 16-game hitting streak ended,

but he did steal his sixth base. Scott, Ty Butchery was bad, and Hansa Robles was good. Just letting you know. How are you letting me now? I'm just telling you, I'm just queuing you up, just in case you wanted to say anything about Ty Bunchry. Oh, well.

I once knew a man named Loretto, last name Cain. Like mine, only spelled differently. No E. So I went to see this Avengers movie. Not so new anymore. No spoilers, but, well, you don't need me to tell you. It's no dark night. They have a man made of iron, a man made of hammers,

a man made of green muscles, and a Scarlett Johansson. who of course worked with me on the 2006 film, The Proceeds. Before taking my seat, I sought out some refreshment from the concession stand. As a young man behind the counter, no more than 16, he said to me, hello, Mr. Kane. How can I help you today? I said to him, I would like some refreshment, sir. He said to me, we have a value-packed, Mr. Kane.

You can get a popcorn, a soft drink, and your choice of candy. I said to him, all I really want from that is the popcorn, but now that you bring it up, a soft drink would be lovely. He said, well, sir, I should let you know that we've made a change here. We no longer hand out plastic straws with the soft drink. We'd hand out paper straws. I said to him, that sounds terrible. He said, yes, sir.

One thing you could do, sir, though, is you could take, you could use your counterfeit. candy selection on the strawberry flavor twizzler. You take a bite off each end, you put it in the soft drink, it works just like a straw. Probably lasts as long as the paper straw, but without a bit of aftertaste. Or, sir, what you could do is you could use the candy

on the chocolate candy, the M&Ms. You mix them in with the popcorn. All right, Scott, let's go. You get the milk surprise with every bite. Doesn't that sound lovely, Mr. Kane? I said to him, I prefer my popcorn, butchery.

Thank you. All right. I was a new one. I'd be prompt to, very good. Although you obviously have been working on that. That was good. All right, Lorenzo Kade left with a jam thumb, but he expects to play today. He was also robbed of a home run by Harold Ramirez.

Oh, man. Wade Davis is nearing a return. Shinsu Chu was hit by a pitch on the wrist. X-rays were negative. Nikki Lopez, batted seventh yesterday. He's been in a slump. They moved him down on the order. He's been terrible.

He's 24%-0. Nicky Lopez. Ryan McMahon is 41% on. He has started three straight, five of the last six games. So probably still sit against lefties, though. But Ryan McMahon, it looks like the normal every day, not every day, but the primary second baseman for the Colorado Rockies until they get the Southpaws back on the schedule.

Hey, Real Quick. Michael Conforto or David Peralta? Michael Conforto. Yeah, I'll say Conforto, to. Sounds like they're close. Like, we've just, I feel like it would be way off brand for us to give David Peralta the credit he deserves.

Exactly. He's good, right? I mean, he's good. Well, I mean, look at the disparity in batting average here, 300 versus 251. And yet, you know, Conforto has a big advantage in OPP. And the slugging percentage is almost the same. Like, I feel like David Peralta, this is him. basically maxing out his abilities.

Well, Conforto probably hasn't, and he's pretty close. Yeah, well, Conforto's walk rate. I don't know what it was last year, but 35 walks, 52 strikeouts, and 52 games. So that OBP is really impressive. 251 batting average, 381 OBP. All right.

Hey, real quick. Dansby Swanson or Didi Grigorous? Danzby Swanson is the number four? No, it's Robile-Dever's I'm thinking of. I'll get to him in a second. Swanson's like the number seven or eight shortstop and fantasy. Didi or Dantby? Danzby.

Yeah, got to be Danesby. Especially since it sounds like at least at the start, they're going to sit D.D. Gregorius every series. That's the plan Aaron Boone was laying out for him. So I don't know how long that's going to last. We've seen that it's taken a while for Corey Seeger to kind of get his stroke back. His power especially, returning from Tommy John. on surgery.

So, you know, I mean, Dan's B. Swanson, like, you could make the case Danes Bonson had bad Babbitt luck. So if you buy the power breakthrough, like, there's no reason to really be unhappy with him. No, and I think that there is, like, regardless of what type of injury it is, when you start playing Major League Baseball in the middle of June and everyone else started in late March, early April, I think there's a very decent chance that D.D. Gregorius is just bad. He'll be good eventually, but it may be a month of just really bad, kind of like what we've seen with Aaron Hicks. Yeah, Hicks has been awful. Hicks also kind of hurt his back again yesterday, but it appears to be okay.

Hey, real quick with third base now. Raphael Devers, who is the number four third baseman in points, number two in Roto. Devers or Jose Ramirez? I would take Jose Ramirez, but not with a great deal of confidence. I'm basically buying the breakthrough from Devers that we saw mostly in May once he got that fly ball rate back where we used to seeing it from him. Then the other gains, the strikeouts and the walks, you know, they worked well together to make for what seems like a breakout here. But at the same time, I mean, you're still talking about first round upside for Jose Ramirez and not a clear enough reason why he's dropped off. it does seem like pitchers are pitching him differently,

putting it so, that, you know, keeping the ball out of his wheelhouse, basically putting it on the outer part of the plate, and he's struggling to adjust to that. But, like, you know, even if he doesn't have the power from last year, he just ends up having the power from 2018, that was still basically a first-round caliber hitter. It wasn't as good as last years,

but last year's was insane. All right. So you're taking Jose. It's going to get better. I was just going to use Jose Ramirez as my buy-low again. Oh, yeah? So absolutely I would take Ramirez over Devers. We were having a conversation about Ramirez and Riley, and I think a third of people might take Riley right now.

So I would, I'd take Ramirez. Well, let's transition right into our trade talk. Buy low, sell high, buy high. Okay, Heath, you want to continue. Why is Jose Ramirez, were by low. I think there have been some signs over the last few weeks that things are starting to get a little bit better for Jose Ramirez.

And as bad as he's been, he still has 15 stolen bases. So I do expect the power is going to come back, not all the way to the level it was in 2018. Obviously, the lineup's not quite as good, so the run production won't be quite as good. But I really just don't think there's enough there in the profile to say, okay, Jose Ramirez is just bad now. I expect him over the rest of this season to be a top eight, top seven, top six, third baseman and I think he might steal 40 bases.

Scott, who's your by-low? My by-low, as I mentioned earlier, and I just want to point out, I am prepared for this. Yes, it sounds good, yeah. Got some heat on Twitter for not being prepared for this one. I heard you took some heat over not being prepared. I hope I didn't have anything to do with that. I can't imagine why that would happen.

But I am here to talk about Mike Fultenevich, who as I mentioned earlier, his velocity started showing up again three starts ago. That was six innings, two earned runs, three strikeouts, not bad. He followed that up with six innings, no earned runs, seven strikeouts, very good. And then I think we got a chance to extend the by-low window with his third start, which was five innings, No walks, eight strikeouts. Oh, good, right? But he gave up three home runs, so it ended up being five earned runs. He's not going to give up three home runs every time out.

That's probably as bad as it gets for a good Mike Fultenevich. And I think he's good again. I mean, his, even though he gave up the three home runs, his slider got a ton of whiffs. The velocity was still there. It kind of reminds me of when Chris Sale showed signs of getting on the right track, and then he had, I can't remember who it was against, but he had one terrible start that was like, okay, well, use this as your last chance to buy low.

I kind of feel like we're at the same point with Mike Fultenevich, which isn't to say he's crew sale, but he should be pretty good. All right, Jose Ramirez and Mike Fultenevich from Heath and from Scott as buy lows. Heath, who are we selling high on? I'm really, like I've gotten back and forth on this guy three or four times, I think, on the podcast in the last few weeks. But like David Dahl, who I said two weeks ago,

could be getting ready to go on a hot streak. He did go on a hot streak, thanks mostly to Coors Field. The other thing I said was, but he's not going to maintain a 440 Babbab. Well, he actually had a 500 babbit over the last two weeks. And I'm still really concerned about what's going to happen when that normalizes. I think you can get someone to look at David Dahl's season stats and just see an absolute monster, almost a 300, 400, 500 guy. I'm not sure that I would expect him to be a time.

top 25 outfield the rest of the season. So I'd be looking to sell high. I'm very invested in David Dahl. The one thing I do like right now, though, he has three strikeouts in his last six games. That has improved, yes. Not enough. It's not enough for me to be like,

well, he's not striking out right now. But I guess if we even go back farther, it looks like over the last like 12 games, his strikeout rate has gone way down. Maybe. Yeah, it's been better. I can even get a better. It's been better.

And I think he has ground. to make up in the home runs. Like, I think he's underachieved from that standpoint, in a way that I expect him to do better. So, Bapid progression is, you know, going to combatting average is going to come down. But if he counteracts it with more power, I still think he might be pretty good.

So he, if you were going to sell him. His contact has not been as good as it's been in previous years. If you were going to sell David, sorry, what would you be looking for right now? I would, this is, maybe we can just cause some controversy, but I would still rather have Mitch Hanigar. Wow. I would do.

Really? I would too. And I think you could make that trade relatively easily. Seven strikeouts in his last 60 plate appearances for David Dahl. So that's encouraging. I'd rather have Victor Robles and Roto. Yeah. I mean, Victor Robles has been nothing but some steals.

You know, it's been pretty bad. It can't be concerned about doll's strikeouts and not Robo's strikeouts. I'd rather have been in Tendi. Oh, yeah. See, that's a trade I would do for sure. That's probably the best one you suggested, yeah. Okay. And that seems like a pretty...

Sorry, Scott, go ahead. Sell hi? Tell hi, I have Jake Oterizzi. I could have also gone with Austin Riley here, but I think we've probably beaten that horse dead and back again. Yeah, Jake Oterese, his fastball velocity is up a mile per hour and a half, which is good. It's probably the one thing you can point to and say, oh, he's definitively doing this better than the past, than in the past, throwing his fastball harder. And it's gotten a ton of whiffs.

His fastball's always gotten a ton of whiffs, though. The whiff rate on that really isn't much better than the past couple years when obviously he wasn't very good. He is still one of the most extreme fly ball pitchers in the majors, actually more extreme than a year ago. and yet his home run to fly ball rate is half of what it was last year. So I think regression is coming. Exfip and Sierra would say the same. They have them with about a 4ERA. Obviously, it's sub 2 right now.

I think just given the state of starting pitcher, yeah, he's a must-own. But if you can use this opportunity to upgrade, I think you should take it. All right, so David Dahl and Jake O'Reilly is so high guys. By the way, speaking of beating a dead horse, Heath, how'd you love going into halftime last night? Go to take my horse to the Old Town, right? I know you like that. They played it on the broadcast, going into halftime.

Or do they play it all the time? And you thought about Heath. Old Town Road. He hates Old Tide Road. The NBA game, what are you talking about? There's no baseball halftime. I don't know what you're talking about. Oh, sure, sure.

Bye, hi. Heath, who we buying high on? I'm going with the Bebes. He, it's coming off a very good start, and I'm buying it. His Sierra and Ex-PIP actually better than his ERA. The strikeout rate has been much better than even what I expected coming to this year. Almost 30%. He's throwing his curveball, his slider, and his change up more often than he did last year.

The four seam is all the way down to like 45%. And that's good because he has a very good whiff rate on the curveball, the slider, and the change-up and not so great on the four-seamer. I legitimately think he might be a top-15 starting pitcher rest of season. Shane Bieber. Okay, Scott, bye high on. Mike Miner, who turned in another excellent start yesterday, five-and-two-thirds shutout, inning seven strikeouts,

18 swinging strikes. He's had at least 18 and three of his past four starts. Like the Arsenal is playing up in some pretty impressive ways here. I am a little concerned that he's been inefficient recently, not pitching even six innings as often, but I think he's going to be a good strikeout pitcher, and I think he's going to limit walks. And, you know, his game log shows that he has the leash to go seven innings if he can be a little more efficient.

I don't really see him falling off from here. I think he's legit, and I think people are hesitant to buy into it because he hasn't been this good ever before. Do you rank any Cubs pitchers ahead of Mike Minor? I don't think so. Lester. you know what, Hendrick. Hendricks.

Hendricks. Yeah. Yeah. I forgot about Hendricks. And I think I still have Hamels ahead of him. Okay. I may actually have minor ahead of Hendrix, some to think of it, but it would be close. The others wouldn't be close for me. All right, guys, let's take a break here on Fantasy Baseball

today. Last break of the show. When we come back, start, sit, or drop for some pretty interesting players. Fringy starting pitchers, we haven't talked about John Means yet. He's been pretty good. He has two starts next week. You complete me. We had some complete games last night. We got some streaking hitters.

We've got to talk about James Paxton and Armand Marquez. And I will try to grade your trade. So stick around. We'll be right back on fantasy baseball today. Welcome back, everybody. You know, I haven't played a lot of music lately. I've got to try to work some drops in there, welcome backs, and whatnot. But start, sit, or drop is the category here.

And here we go. Jake Areietta is first up. He now is a 429 ERA, a 1. a 143 whip. He's good, he's good, he's bad, he's bad, he's good, he's good, he's bad, he's bad, he's annoying. Start, sit, or drop, Jake Arietta. I'd be willing to drop him if there was something interesting out there. When he's good, he's not great anymore.

So, yeah, I do want to drop him. All right, would you be willing to drop Fulton, sorry, Frieta for like, Plezac, Povetta, duplantee, some of the pitchers we've talked about this week. Yeah. If I thought a pitcher out there had the potential to be a real impact pitcher, I would drop the boring, you know, hopefully eat some innings without terrible ratios guy for that. Yes. You Darvish, start, sit, or drop.

And he's 84% own, 43% started. So, you know, it's kind of an interesting, kind of an interesting guy to talk about in this sense. You Darvish, guys, start, sit or drop. drop. He's a sit. Yeah, it's probably best. I'm between sit and start as opposed to sit and drop. He's been trending the right direction. He's just still, the walks are just still a little too high to trust that he's not going to really hurt your ERA and whip.

Next week, Darvish is at Colorado and at the Dodgers, so that's a sit for me. No. No, no, no, no, no, no. Maybe a point slip. Maybe a point. league. Like, if he has, you know, a 6-CRA-15 whip, it won't necessarily lead to negative production at a points league. Now, everybody on this list, by the way, is owned in like 84% of leagues or more. Will Myers, start, sit, or drop, a home run and a steal yesterday, but he is the number 67 outfielder in points, number 48 in Roto.

Start, sit or drop, Will Myers. He might be the number 67 outfielder on the Padres. Oh, gosh. I can't like this is encouraging and he could do enough over the weekend to make me consider starting him in Roto next week. But right now I would call him a sit. Five outfield of Roto, I'm not sure with that power speed combo. I'm not sure how you could do much better in your lineup. That said, probably unusable in a points league.

So there's a distinction in format here. Byron Buxton, 84% owned. starting to hit a little bit better lately Home run three RBIs and a strikeout yesterday He has 10 steals on the year Byron Buckson, start, sit, or drop? Did you hear everything that Scott just said about Will Myers? Yeah

Right. Any league that counts deals You have to keep Buxton. Yeah, no, I might I might call him a start even in points league The way he's, the power has been coming back recently. Fly ball rate is way up this year. Home run to Fly ball rate is still.

down from last year, so I think maybe there's more ground to make up with the power, and his strikeout rate's way down. So I think he might, I'm not totally on board with the breakout, like I'm, like I'm, like I'm, like I'm, like, and with Raphael does, Devers, but Buxton is showing real signs of being better than he's ever been before. Yeah, as someone who owns... I'd start him in Roto, Citamin Ponds. As someone who owns Buxton in a points league, in our podcast, Points League, in our podcast,

points league, three outfielders, one utility. I don't want to start him, primarily because he bats ninth, and that's just bad in points leagues. But I will not drop him because there are enough encouraging things that you might be giving up a really good player. He's probably not a top 50 outfielder in points, right? I'll check for you. Talk to me about Domingo Santana. 90% own,

61% started. Two for five of the home run yesterday. He's the number 36 outfielder in points, number 18 in Roto. But, I mean, Domingo Santana is still kind of hanging on to that very hot start. His last 42 games, he has a 710 OPS with a 293 Babbup,

so it hasn't really been super unlucky. Domingo Santana, start, sit, or drop? Start. If I'm in a 3, if I'm at a points league, I'm probably looking to upgrade, but it would be hard to sit them. It was a 710 OPS over the last how many days?

Hold on. Will Myers is the number 48 outfielder in points league, because I can't do everything at once. It was a 710 OPS in his last 42 games out of like 60. I do think he's going to be a little bit streaky, but he's also got like an 830 OPS in his last 15 games,

so I think it just depends on how you chop it up. Uh-huh. Okay. Tim Anderson, 95% O and start, center drop. Drop. Not in a roto league. Really? Not a roto league.

He's got 15. I am... Wait. What happened? Why are we saying drop about Tim Anderson? I'm not saying drop. In points drop, you're probably starting him as a middle infielder. Why?

Well, he has really been, his last 30 games before yesterday, he went one for four with two strikeouts, 30 games before that, he had a 390 slugging percentage, a 712 OPS. He's like, he's hitting like crap again. I don't know. I'm trying to remember what it was I saw on his line that made me move him up in my rankings recently.

Because, like, yeah, maybe I didn't give enough credit for this. But I can't remember what it was. So that makes for an awesome discussion. No, Tim Anderson, he was a top 12 shortstop in Roto last year. He was not worth using in points leagues. I do kind of worry that he's that. Last year. But this year, all right, let me pull up his page.

So this year, he is, okay, so strikeout rate is way down. 368 Babbip obviously is high but he should have a highish Babbitt like he's like maybe a 290 hitter that's just going to be better than last year yeah I think he's I think he's definitely better than last year I just like maybe a 290 hitter for a guy that's been a 260 hitter and he got off to an incredible start but he's been

mostly bad a guy who was 20-20 last year, but hit 240, and obviously doesn't walk at any at all. What makes it tricky from a points league context is you have only the shortstop and utility spots where you can play him, and there are a ton of other short stops to play. But I would take Tim Anderson over like Marcus Simeon.

You know, it just depends on what you're dealing with there, I guess. Start, sit or drop, Nick Mark Hakesh, 86% own, Nick Mark Hacus. Bye, bye. Drop. Yeah, I don't need to hold on to him, but I'm a perennial Nick Markechakis under Raider. You're never wrong upgrading from Nick Markechus, but I don't think you're ever wrong playing him either. It's just an as-needed basis is how you use Nick Markechus. That's sort of rhyme.

That was cool. Markakis last year had a great year for Nick Markechakis. He played 162 games. was the number 12 outfielder in points leagues, very good, number 30 in Roto. So I don't see how you really need Nick Marquakis in any categories

format, but in points leagues he's better, but he has been slumping. He's basically had four bad weeks in a row. All right, fringe he started, but you know, it could just be a slump. He got off to a good start. Okay, fringey starting pitchers. These guys are available

in about half our leagues. John Means, Spencer Turnbull, and from means to an ends of Kevin Gosman who's been just awful lately. John Means, Spencer Turnbull, Kevin Gosman if you see them on your waiver wire, are you looking to pick up any of them?

Turnbull is interesting. This wasn't a very good start against Tampa Bay. I think it's pretty clear that John Means business in a points league. And I don't know why anyone would roster Kevin Gosman. I think the least skilled of these pitchers is means. Yeah, just don't see

Like he's he's had a lot of bad bit luck He doesn't have a lot of swing and miss potential He's been the best of them for the war right Yes which is why I phrased it the way I did Well yeah probably Turnbull's been pretty good but Yeah I mean Turnbull has kind of been coming back down to Earth for certain

Like it hasn't been a crash and burn situation, but several starts recently where it's just kind of like, eh. Oh, yeah. Turnbull has one quality start in his last six. If he wasn't worth starting, if he wasn't worth rostering in your league prior to today, I don't know why you'd be choosing now to pick him up. I guess that's what I'm trying to say. I'll tell you why, Scott. Spencer Turnbull has Kansas City in Cleveland next week.

Okay. Could do worse. Yeah, two-star sleeper. Could do worse. Yeah. You wrap it up with a five-second thought on Gosman. I'm still keeping an eye on him. Obviously not worth rostering now. Nobody's going to pick him up, but he's doing different things that should be leading to better results than they have. Next segment is, you complete or almost complete me.

Let's talk about guys who through complete games or almost complete games on Wednesday night. Chris Sale, nine innings, three hits, no walks, no runs, and 12 strikeouts. His last eight starts, he's got a 232 ERA. 86 strikeouts in 54 and a third and a 0.77 whip. Hot take, Chris Sale is back. The other guys in the You Complete Me section. Joe Musgrove through eight innings started the ninth, gave up two home runs, and then he left.

But before that, it was eight innings of one run ball. It was a very good start for Joe Musgrove, who's 75% own. He said he watched some video, he fixed his mechanics, and he got better results. Mike Leak, complete game one run against Houston with five strikeouts. and Jason Vargas. Now zero or one earn run allowed in six of his last seven starts, but typically pitches like five innings or so. But this was a complete game shutout against San Francisco.

So sail is sale, but in terms of Musgrove, Mike Leak, and Jason Vargas, Heath did anything kind of open your eyes yesterday. Musgrove is the one that's interesting to me. I'd just like to see him do it more than once, because he was the most interesting of these guys coming into the season. He had been terrible as of late, but if you found something wrong and corrected it, I'm willing to give him another chance.

Okay, he's 75% on. Does that mean you're not really interested in Leak and Vargas? No, I'm going to wait until Mike Leak has a two-start week against good matchups to tell people they should add him so then he can give up nine runs in the first inning, and I can look stupid. Scott, I got two streaking outfielders for you that are kind of hot right now, and they are streaky,

and they're both 53% own. Jay Bruce for the Phillies, Randall Gritchick for the Blue Jays Do you want either one of these guys? I would be more likely to pick up Bruce. It'll be interesting to see how the playing time plays out there. The Phillies obviously running out of outfielders, and Bruce has made a strong first impression on them.

So I think, yeah, it's obviously a better scenario for him than it was in Seattle. They need him more, the Phillies do, and it's a better part. So I could see him finding his way back in. a mixed league significance here. To the rotation, a six-man rotation from yesterday, rank these three starting pitchers. James Paxton, Erman Marquez,

Charlie Morton. James Paxton, Armand-Marquez, Charlie. Yeah, this is tough here. What do you guys think? How would you rank them? Paxton, Marquez Morton. Yeah, that's the way I've had it. I think most of the season. It's definitely guys moving in different directions. This was

a really weird start from Hermann Marquez. He was like extremely efficient. His first four innings and then give up a three run home run to Bodie and okay, whatever. He goes back out in the sixth and just could not locate at all. Hit two batters, walked a couple, giving up hits. And this was a start away from course. So I'm a little discouraged by that. I'm very discouraged by Paxton's innings so far this season.

I'm going to leave it in that order for, but like, Like, it's on notice. This could be changing after their next turn through the rotation. And Morton, two straight starts of seven innings, but 87 and 83 pitches, just like Blake Snell, they don't want Morton going deep into games. He's usually a six-inning pitcher. In fact, those are his only two starts. His last two is only two starts of seven innings this year.

So I don't think you don't look at the last two starts and be like, oh, he's a innings eater. He's not. He's awesome, but he's not that. By the way, Charlie Borton is a top five starting pitcher in fantasy right now based on scoring, and he has the second longest unbeaten streak in baseball in terms of starts behind Clayton Kershaw. He should probably be ahead of those guys. But he has a bad, look, so does Paxton. But Morton does have an injury history.

I'm wondering if he's a sell high candidate because of that. Because last year he was pretty bad, I think, at the end of the year and pretty hurt. I've noticed Heath has been more aggressive with his starting pitch. your rankings than I have this year. Or at least on the high end. It's interesting. Like, high end, he shuffles those guys around the lot, and then

kind of the middle tier, I do a lot. So, I don't know what that means. I find it. I'm just trying to think, like, if Charlie Morton misses five more starts or five starts the rest of the season because of injury, like, there's probably at least five more times I'm not going to want to use Hermann Marquez.

Because he's at cores against a league average or better offense. Mm-hmm. Two point. Yeah. I mean, I've never sat Marquez this year. I've never sat Morton either, but Marquez has been a little disappointing. It's at least worth talking about. Yeah, the strikeout rate's way down. Yeah, I mean, it's weird. Obviously, his four innings last time he was fresh off the IL and like he hardly

threw any pitches. Like he didn't have a rehab assignment. So you could understand him going four innings last time. And, you know, this time he struggled with his control a bit. but the stuff was still good. Yeah, I'm not willing to change my opinion on Paxton based on this most recent start. When I said the strikeout rates way down, I was actually talking about Marquez, not Paxton. You know, it's still like about a strikeout printing, but last year it was well over that for Marquez. All right, finally guys, rank these three. Kenta Maeda, Brad Peacock actually is 33rd and points, 28th in Roto at starting pitcher.

And Mike Minor, Maida, Peacock, Minor. minor that was a great team name minor myeda peacock I'll point out peacock slider was the best

it's been all year in this most recent start at a season high 13 swinging strikes total not just on a slider total so you said minor you said minor

myeta I'll go minor peacock myeda I'm trying to think of the team name that would be

myeda bider peacock okay so thank you for that guys let's do some grade the trade to finish the show. We got a few minutes left here. This is a Dynasty League. Keep eight players. I'm in second place.

I was offered Jose Ramirez for my Max Scherzer. It is a Dynasty League. Would you do that? From Matt. No. It seems like an unfortunate combination of names. I wasn't listening to the question. Sorry, I was thinking about the team name. Would you give up Max Scherzer for Jose Ramirez at a dynasty league? I would not, no. Okay. Gray, the trade from Zach.

First time emailer, hey, Zach. I recently traded Javier Baez for Garrett Cole and Caleb Smith in a 10-team categories league. Grade the trade. Hey. Okay. Yeah. Well, wait a second. He's getting Caleb Smith.

Yeah. These aren't in the notes, are they, Adam? No, they're not. I'd rather have Garrett Cole than Javier Baez. So Caleb Smith's just a throw-in. Yeah, it's a win. From Ryan, he's got Shane Green, Hector Neros, Ken Giles, and Craig Kimbril, so he traded Kenley Jansen for Sibdergaard and Alex Gordon.

That's bad spelling right there. Kenley Jansen for CinderGard and Alex Gordon. It's another A. Great job buying low on CinderGard. This is another A. Yeah, hey. From John, 10-team head-to-head league. Didn't say categories or points.

Three outfielders. give Machado and Soroka Get Acuna and Colomei Machado and Soroka, Acuna and Colome A plus I'm not even sure you needed Machado in the first place Yeah I do think that Colomé could get traded and be useless soon

But still like Right I could do that trade just for Acuna Machado and Soroka for Acuna then I mean Machado and Acuna have both been kind of disappointing this year. I don't know, I don't know, like, it's not an A for me, you probably win it, but it's more like a

C plus, D minus. Acoa's been a lot better than Machia. Like, maybe I've missed a terrible, terrible slump for, yeah, he's got an OPS over 800. That's a lot better than Mani Machado. Hey, Acuna is, many machado's, like 740?

Acuna actually is number 15 in points, number 9 in Roto at outfield. So you're, you're down, you're like, You're like Machado, this is who Machado is now where like he's not that great of a player anymore. Well, he's now, the debate, the question is the fact that he was this hitter away from Camden Yards and he is this hitter now, does that mean that is what Manny Machado is? His strikeout rate is up significantly this year. So I don't think it's just a product of the environment.

And the home run pace, like he's on pace for like 30 homers. So, you know. If he plays 185 games Okay, let me One more grade the trade He's not going to play that many games This is from Mark Give up

Nelson Cruz and Mike Soroka For Aaron Nola In a 16 team points league This will allow me to activate Dede Gigorius without dropping anyone I would give up Nelson Cruz And Mike Soroka for Aaronola Nola

It's not really buying that low. But I'll go C. I'll go C plus, I guess. Thank you very much, Mark, for your email, for all of your emails. Thank you all for listening. Thanks to Scott and Heath. I'm Adam Azer. Back on Friday with another edition of Fantasy Baseball today.
