There's another Kokomo Friday here, the Friday edition of the Fantasy Baseball today podcast. Adam Scott and Chris with you here. We will get you the list of two-star pitchers for next week and tell you our favorites. We'll recap Thursday's action. We'll do some hey real quick. We will follow up on a classic edition of fantasy regulators from yesterday and, of course, give you a prospects report. Happy Kokomo Friday, guys. Are you in a nice, relaxed Friday state?

I'm all right. I'm fine. Okay. I'm fine. You know who was near Kokomo last week, actually, is Heath? It's down in the Florida Keys, right? Near the Florida Key, exactly. Key Largo.

Montigo. Yeah, he wants to be there. We should have asked him. Instead, let's talk about baseball. And let's talk about yesterday's standouts, guys. Kind of a cold intro, just get right to it. Who stood out to you in yesterday's games? Well, Adam, since you were so kind to ask, I will tell you that one person who stood out is a favorite of Chris is Jose Berrios.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, I had to go on Twitter yesterday and just say I was wrong about him. But the thing is, I was very confident and loud about how wrong I was. And I think that that makes up for it. That's the best way to be wrong so that everybody remembers. Exactly, yeah. Okay. Yes, he's good.

I have a hey real quick. Hey, real quick, Jose Barrios or Blake Snell? I'll still go with Blake Snow. Yeah, but they're in the same category. What's interesting about Barrios, and I don't know how much we should dismiss this or not, but his numbers would look substantially better, if not for that weird three-start stretch

where he had a total of four strikeouts. because now he's up to four games with eight or more strikeouts, and yet he's at right at a strikeout per inning for the season, right? Because of what happened during those three starts when, I don't know, it defies explanation because it was such a departure from everything else he's done this year. Right. But he's been ace caliber more starts than not. Yes, and I believe Paul Moloder was talking about Jose Barrios's confidence.

And I remember I said, I remember which start it was. I think it was the one that was in Puerto Rico. It was just like, when he's good, you wonder, how is this guy ever bad? And since then, he's just been outstanding. Jose Barrios, in his last five starts, has a 263 ERA, five walks, 44 strikeouts at 37 and 2 thirds, 14% swinging strikes. And he's gone seven or more innings in four of those five starts. He's absolutely a must start, and he's a total stud.

You guys are still going to take Blake Snell ahead of Jose Brrios. Chris Towers standout from Thursday's games. Let's talk about Jock Peterson. Jock Peterson. I picked him up for $0 in a pretty deep five out of the league. He has five home runs in his last five games. He has... Six for the season, by the way.

Yeah, he has cut his strikeout rate in half, I think, from where it was two years ago. He is striking out at a D. Gordon-like rate, a guy who... who's, you know, all of his, all the hype and all the expectations were derailed by how often he struck out. And now he's like a contact hitter. It's crazy. Yeah. And he, he's improved his contact rate, but for the most part, I think it's just he's not swinging at bad pitches anymore. It's like his contact rate in 2015, his rookie season was 66.7%.

That's really bad. It's been 75, 77, 79% the last. last three years. So he's steadily improved. He's improving his play discipline. Now the one thing to keep in mind, and I think the reason why you probably can't add him in a three outfielder league is they don't really want him facing lefties. I think he has 21 played appearances against lefties all season. That's going to limit the counting stats, even if he can continue to hit well. He's got an 858 OPS on the season now, not facing lefties regularly as obviously a limiting factor.

Yeah, it is. But this is, I think this is the most excited we've been able to get about Jack Peterson in a long time. Because I hadn't even noticed these improvements he had made because he was stuck at one home run. Fact check. I'm always excited about Chuck. Yeah, we have been excited about Jack Peterson. And that's why after he hit the two home runs yesterday, the only league I was looking to pick him up in was probably my deepest league. Well, maybe, Scott, maybe we should have taken a look in the 16 team three outfielder league, but we didn't, and somebody else picked them up.

But it's for now, for me, it's deep leagues, as Chris was mentioning the whole lefty situation. I just want to look up what he did in the World Series. I don't think he's dissimilar from Kyle Schwerber. Well, I just. He plays a little bit more against lefties, but he still sits against a fair share of lefties. You know, similar caliber of prospect, actually. I know, but he really. The total Major League production is pretty similar.

But Peterson just really hasn't done it. He's been such a bust in the majors, and we've gotten excited about him before. He hit 51 homers over a span of two seasons. Are you disagreeing with me? Let's not say he hasn't. Let's not say he's been a bust. Oh, he has. So far, he absolutely has a fantasy.

The Dodgers had no intention of playing him. Then Kyle Schwabre has been a bust. A fantasy bust. Fantasy bust. He's never. Kyle Schwerber has been a bust. The only reason Jack Peterson has gotten the opportunities he has is because Corey Seeger got hurt and Chris Taylor had to move to the interview.

Okay, wait, wait, wait, hold on, hold on. Sometimes I really feel like Chris and I live in different planets. I mean, I compared him to Kyle Schwaber. And you're saying Jock Peterson is a bust, but Kyle Schwerber isn't like, what are we doing? First of all, I never said anything about Kyle Schwerber. I'm saying that John, hold on, hold on. I'm saying that Jock Peterson has been a fantasy bus. There really has not been too much of a time when he has been all that fantasy

relevant. That's all I'm saying. That's not the case for Kyle Schwerber. College Swarber has given you second half of last year he gave you good fantasy production. He was probably somebody you wanted to start. Okay. That's all I'm saying. Okay.

But it's true. I mean, so this is, all I'm saying, like, this is the fourth full season for Jock Peterson. Yes. It's hard to really buy in from like a seven-game stretch, but at the same time, you know the pedigree. You know what he did in the World Series last year. Yes. Three home runs. So sure, deeper leagues.

Let's add him. I think now we're back on the same planet. I'm not sure which planet that is, but we are there together, Chris. You're on planet wrong, Adam. You're a planet jerk. All right, who's your favorite two-star pitcher to pick up for next week? Owned it less than 70% of weeks. I'm getting frustrated with this exercise because I feel like every time it comes around this year,

I'm like, there's nobody that interesting or worth using. Like every three weeks, it's a good week. Yeah. It's like every three weeks, it's a bunch of stars. And then the next week is a bunch of really interesting. number three or number four starters who have low ownership. And then the next two weeks, it's like Trevor Williams stinks.

But this feels like a new development where, and it's partly because there are so many, like this week there are five teams playing five games. And obviously that eliminates a two-star option for each of them more or less. There may be a case where somebody skips the start or whatever.

But like that's part of the, okay, there are more off days built into the season. And I just wonder, because of how we've experienced it if streaming to start pitchers is even as viable of the strategy as it used to be because the best I could come up with

for the video of going to shoot later is Zach Wheeler and C.C. Sabathia. I'm not actually excited to start either of them, but that's the best I can offer. So I remember, sorry, I just want to correct something I said earlier in the week. I said that I wasn't sure about Sabathia because I didn't know if that start against the Nationals was the resumption of the game that got delayed. that actually, that is not happening until like another month or something like or a few weeks. I don't know. This is a true full game that they're playing at home.

I didn't realize they had two at home and two on the road this year with the Nationals. So Sabathie is most definitely a two-star pitcher. And he has the Nationals at home and the Ray's on the road. Go ahead, Chris. I'm probably a little bit interested in Jordan Liles. I think there's definite bus potential as we've seen recently. But I like some of the changes that he's made with his curveball, the velocity gains that he's had since.

coming back to the rotation. We have seen flashes of really good stuff. The matchups aren't great. St. Louis actually isn't a terrible matchup right now. They've been kind of scuffling, except for Matt Carpenter. And then the Braves have come down to Earth. So I don't hate Jordan Liles. He's 27% out.

They're both on the road, though, right? Is that what you said? Yes. Okay, 27% own. And yeah, we are reaching a little bit. Now, Mike Leak typically plays pretty well at Safeco. Pitch is pretty well at SafeGo, and he's got the Angels and the Red Sacks. Can't do it this week.

Exactly. Like, maybe we could go with Mike Leak if it was, you know, the Rangers and the White Sox or whatever. But those matchups are among the worst. Even if it was the Angels and the Blue Jays, I would be interested. But Angels and Red Sox, that's two of the top six offenses in baseball, I'm pretty sure. And it's just, it's hard to trust him. I wouldn't recommend adding him maybe in a points league. Okay.

He's not striking anybody out either, Mike Leak. All right, so let's do some news and notes. Hey, Vladimir Guerrero got moved from AA to the disabled list. He is on the seven-day deal with a leg injury. They say it's not serious for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Rich Hill could return as a relief pitcher. So keep an eye on that. Everything I had read was that they wanted him to be in the rotation,

but yesterday I saw a note that Hill could come back. Yeah, not permanently relief pitcher. just relief pitcher in lieu of a rehab assignment. And he threw 100 pitches in a recent, I don't know if it was a simulated game or something, but he threw 100 pitches off a mound with like 60 of them. Yeah. With like a...

This was his idea from what I read, and it's probably just because, like, guys, it's only a matter of time before my next injury. Let's make sure these innings count. J.D. Martinez left with back tightness, but they said it was not serious. This is the second time in about a week, can have less than a week, but not serious for J.D. Martinez.

Same with Carlos Correa. He's expected to be back from the side soreness this weekend. Next weekend, we could get Elvis Andrews and Ronald Acuna back. Here's a potential trade, and something to keep in mind, J.T. Ray Almuto has a good chance of being traded. According to John Heyman, Ray Almuto, the Nationals were checking in on him a couple of weeks ago. Now, we told you preseason about Christian Yelich and how much better he had been on the road than at home at Marlins Park. J.T. Rayamuto, you look at his previous two seasons. His road, his home OPS, 643 and 633. His road Ops, 893 and 897. This year's actually been great at home, 885 OPS, 927 on the road, but it's a small sample size. Bottom line is, a change of scenery for so many reasons. Could be great for J.T. Rayamuto. And he appears to have made some improvements to his game so far. You know, he's,

he's hitting the ball with a lot more authority. He's hitting in the air a little bit more often. It certainly does look like he's an improved player, and he was already a top six catcher. Right. If he gets traded, I mean, I think it would be kind of a sneaky play to try to trade for him right now. He's sort of just, like, in the back of people's minds.

Yeah, but he's been, like, the second best catcher in baseball since he returned from the DL, right? Probably. He's been really good. been one of the few who... It's going to be really hard. Yeah. Yeah.

I agree. You'll have to pay a premium for him. Even if they're... Yeah, maybe he does improve marginally with a better supporting cast, but you're... I don't know that it's really a buy-low situation. Yeah, no J.T. Romuto owner is like,

oh, man. It's been a rough year. I wouldn't call it by low. I was just... By high? Yeah, knowing that he's probably going to get even better. Okay.

Zach Britton could be back on Wednesday. Josh Donaldson may come off to D.L. today, but probably not. Boston sent Jalen Beeks back to the miners. Scott, don't you do it? What? What? I was making... Scott was on one last night.

I was making Beeks' puns left and right on Twitter last night. It was for the birds. That wasn't the pun. That wasn't a pun I made. I'll give you a little sample after Chris told me not to. This was, you know, I was on a run of like one tweet after another for a while, and then I put together this one. This promotion of beak, oh, sorry, this promotion beaks of desperation and beaks volumes about the beacon state of the Red Sox Farm. Those beaks in the front office ought to take their beaks out of their spreadsheets and consider their beak futures once fans are subjected to beaks and beaks of this beak sauce.

That's not really a pun. Those are puns, really. They're just like rhymes. That's Beak Scott White. I like it, though. I think it's terrific. Good job. Jalen Beeks had a really bad first inning, and then he settled down pretty nicely, but he's back in the minors.

Homer Bailey will make a rehab start. I don't know. I don't know why I put that in the notes. Chris Davis, according to ESPN is reading the SPN this morning. Chris Davis is apparently on pace for the worst season in baseball history, or among the very, very worst. Yeah. I have him in one of those home run derby contests. Luckily, we're allowed to replace him, so I think I should probably do that pretty quickly.

Brian McCann will come off to the EL today. Stu, are you guys thinking that Max Stassie will no longer be relevant soon? Fantasy relevant? I'm actually not thinking that. He'll be less relevant. He's been better than McCann this year. I think McCann's in the last year of his contract, right? and it was already kind of a 60-40 split even before McCann got hurt.

So at Catcher, like I could see it being a situation where kind of like, you know, Suzuki hasn't been, Kurt Suzuki hasn't been as valuable since Flowers came back, but like at a weak position, he's still worth rostering. All right. Jordan Zimmerman will make one more rehab start before rejoining the Detroit rotation. He spells his last name of two. by the way. Kent and Maeda could be back next week, but probably not, probably the week after or so. And Dennis Santana was supposed to start yesterday for the Dodgers, but he has a lat injury and he will have an MRI today.

Hey, Chris. Hi. What is Scott White's favorite game to play with his kids? Sorry. Hide and go beak. Okay, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.

Hey, real quick. Juan Soto. I don't know that we've really talked about him since his first couple games. Juan Soto or and all of a sudden pretty hot, Andrew McCutcheon. Hey, real quick, Soto or McCutcheon? I'll say McCutcheon.

Yeah. I don't feel great about it. Yeah. Because there is, there are no apparent holes in Juan Soto's game right now. You know, it's only 14 games or whatever, but like he's making contact.

He's hitting the crap out of the ball. If you want to pick a knit, he has a 51% ground ball rate, which is a little higher than you would hope for from a big power hitter. But he's yet to hit an infield fly ball. He has a 47% hard contact rate. Honestly, the reason I think we haven't talked about him is because he has, and I use air quotes only two home runs. Now, it's two home runs in 16 games, which, you know. that's fine. But, you know, when you have somebody like Austin Meadows hitting five, it's like you're a little

underwhelmed by Juan Soto's one run total, even though you have no reason to be. And he was 100% owned 12 hours after he got called up. Yeah. So Soto has nine walks to nine strikeouts. He's been very good. And Adam Eaton could be back as early as today. I don't think he will be, but he could be back. Famous last words.

Here's a, here's an article that I wish I had. read before the show. But with Eden nearing return, how will Nats configure Outfield from M-A-N-FraudsonSports.com? It's a good question, guys. If I, maybe I'll just read it and then I'll update everybody. So let's do that. Would you like us to talk while you? Well, we'll go to the next, hey, real quick.

This one I really think is pretty interesting. Hey, real quick, Ozzy Albies or Scooter Jeanette? Well, that's, yeah, I think it is interesting. I actually move Scooter Jeanette from that 12 to 15 range in my second base. rankings to like sixth or seventh the last time I did a you know a full audit of the rankings and Ozzy Albies is kind of cooled off yeah yeah yes you got like a 700 OPS since the end of April I think and meanwhile Scooter Jeanette is proving that last year was completely valid if you look at his 300 six

65 day line. You're talking at OPS over 900, more than 30 homers, like 120 RBI. I mean, he looks like a stud in his own right. So I still think Ozzy Albies is a more well-rounded player with a potentially higher ceiling. But I wouldn't fault anybody for preferring Jeanette. And that might, like, obviously, Ozzy Albies has more trade value than Jeanette right now, right? Like, I think that perception has Ozzy Albi's way ahead still. So that may be something you could take advantage of. Yeah, like, I think the answer is probably Jeanette, but I feel stupid saying it.

Okay, well, yeah, I mean, it's really interesting. And Jeanette, by the way, is crushing lefties this year. If you said any of this, I'm sorry I was reading the article. No, we didn't. I don't know that that's going to continue, but Scooter Jeanette is batting 364 with four home runs and 66 of bats against lefties. Just looks absolutely awesome. Since the start of May, he had a 988 OPS in April.

He has a 677 since the start of May. Albis. Albies. Allbies. Allbies or Jeanette, rest of season? Who would you really take if you would, you know, came back to it? I would really take Albis, but it's close enough that I would consider marketing Albis to the scooter, Jeanette owner and see what else I could get back with Jeanette.

Okay, let me read this from Massensports.com. General manager Mike Rizzo and manager Davy Martinez have insisted all along. If Soto's in the big leagues, he must play on a regular basis. They won't stunt his development by having him come off the bench, which means the only way Soto stays is if someone else is removed from the lineup, which has led to speculation that Michael A. Taylor is about to lose his starting job in center field. Of course. Who else would be?

Continued. Since May 20, Taylor ranks second on the roster with a 293 batting average, 349 on base, and six doubles. He leads the club. Since then? 20th. Oh, whatever. That was a week ago.

Hold on. He leads the club during that span with 10 RBIs and in slugging percentage. Taylor's gold glove caliber defense in center field has remained a constant all along, and it's the reason Martinez has repeatedly cited in insisting Taylor's job

is safe. Well, so what? You're thinking Soto could get sent but down to the minors? Or Eaton loses here. I don't know. What? I mean, it'd be crazy, right?

It's got to be Taylor. Well, no. They gave up the first. farm for Eaton and he's been awesome when he's been in the lineup. Right, but he's not been in the lineup. Yeah, but he's about to be in the lineup again. Until he's not. I just, I don't think it's crazy to think that Adam Eaton might only play four or five times a week for the next month. And then after that, maybe it sorts itself out. I guess Harper has a history of injuries. Michael Taylor, I think, had an injury last year and he just doesn't hit. So I would guess Adam Eaton's, it's going to be

rough sledding for a little bit. All right. Well, that will do it for today's edition of Hey Real Quick. Thank you guys for killing time while I read that article.

Remember, the guy was helping his friend, got into a fight at work, got sentenced to 90 days in jail. I'll never forget, Adam. I have some thoughts on this at some point. He's helping the guy out with his fantasy team,

but at the same time, sleeping with his girl. So we got a follow-up. Thanks for hearing our situation on fantasy regulators. The CEO at County, I'm guessing that's corrections officer, at county, listens to your podcasts and knew who it was. I guess they count fantasy baseball as gambling and won't let me visit anymore. We debated kicking him out and ultimately determined he violated our league's conduct code. We have narrowed down his replacement to make my karate instructor or his old boss. I'd like to go on the record and clarify, I am seeing his girlfriend, and she is better looking than his wife.

And that is it. So apparently this guy's married. I really, I hope this is true because it's so funny. I've been scoping out this guy's Twitter account. He seems like a jokester. It's not. It's not real. Yeah.

Like this, the follow-up email, it was a step too far. All right? You got to know when you can let the joke mellow. And this was a moment to let the joke mellow. The corrections officer did not get back to him 12 hours. Like, come on, guys. Yeah, I know. That's karate instructor.

Don't believe everything that you read on the internet. Or here on the podcast. But I had a feeling it might be false, but it was so funny anyway and people enjoyed it. So thank you for the comedy. And maybe it's true. Maybe we're wrong. And if it is true, you know, congratulations. Great story.

We usually have the Worryometer Wednesday. Sometimes we have Thurriometer Thursday. Today it is Furriometer Friday. How worried are you about Tommy Fam? I know Chris is worried about Tommy Fam. He has voiced that recently. But Scott, what about you? In his first 32 games, FAM had a 1042 OPS.

In his next 22 games, he is batting 179 with six walks to 29 strikeouts. Now, he crushes lefties and only two lefties in those 22 games. Only two left-handed starters. But it's been an extended slump for Tommy Fam, who did single twice and scored two runs yesterday. Zero to 10 on the Worryometer, or Friday it's the Furriometer. What do you think, Scott White? I'll go four, which isn't very high, but it's not, you know, it's not, there are no concerns either. The only reason there are concerns is because of his history with vision issues that, you know, were brought back up again prior to the start of the season,

and then quickly put to rest by his performance. But it feels like something that's never going to go away for him. Like, I think I read in the offseason he's like legally blind. in one eye. But he does have three, two hit games in his last four. I refuse to accept the legitimacy of the furiometer.

Why? Just to put that out there. I'd be a 10 on the furryometer, by the way, as everybody knows, a fairly hairy guy. I'd be more like a seven. I'd be like a two. Are we not doing phrasing anymore? Tommy Pham over his last

eight games has only struck out two times. So it's a roller coaster ride, baby. Because over his previous 15 games, he had struck out 27 times. Yeah. I mean, that's the thing. If this happened for any other star-level player, like I would just say this is baseball. Yeah.

Right, right. All right. So let's talk about your rankings because you still have him as a top 12 outfielder. Would you take Starling Marte over Tommy fam? Yes. That's why I ranked him that way. I know my ranking, like sometimes I have these ranking revelations on the air, but. You have fam ahead.

I've given a lot of thought to moving fam down and decided there's just, like, there's not a good, there's nobody who's really standing out in the next tier enough to enter that elite tier. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. So you would take Fam or Marte? I would take Fan. Okay, so you said it backwards. I asked me, would you take Marte over for him? Sorry.

I will phrase it like this. Will you take Fam over Marte? You're going to take Marte. We'd take FAM or Christian Yelich. You would rather have? What? I would take FAM over Marte. Yes.

How about Yelich? Okay. The way is... Okay. I would take FAM over Yelich, yes. All right. So not moving him down. Now, I did move Ben Intendi ahead of FAM.

That was something I was willing to do, because Ben Intendi was showing that. Okay, this guy's elite now. Yeah. You know, I forgot to mention him. I was going to use him as my standout, Ben Intendi. So he homered for the second straight day against a lefty. Let's look at Ben-intay.

He's like the number four outfielder in fantasy right now, and he's just been on an absolute tear. 3-78 with nine homers, three steals, and a 12-59 OPS in his last 21 games. In those 21 games, only four left-handed starting pitchers on the schedule, including each of the last two games, and Ben-intendi has homered twice. So if you look at his stats against lefties this year,

he now has a 235 batting average with three home runs. So I don't really want it out Ben and Tendi I mean we got you know heath had him as a breakout I don't remember Scott did he can tell me I didn't but yeah like there's potential I mean the thing is he didn't need to do much to go from really good to great you know Well he needed to hit lefties

And he's hit he's hit a home run in two days in a row But if we go back if we had had this conversation two days ago Ben and Tendie would have been hitting about 2.30 With one home run against lefties And maybe I'd say still have some concerns about Benetennie truly being elite. No what I mean? I don't think he's elite.

But he's very good. Isn't he the number three outfielder in points leagues? Yeah. And I see nothing about a stat line that's like, okay, this guy's playing over his head. They haven't faced a lot. It's not like he has some crazy high Babbitt or whatever. They've only faced the seventh most, seventh fewest of bats against lefties in baseball. I guess that's my only, I wouldn't even call it a concern,

but a thing to point out with Ben Intendi. I mean, you can nitpick. Like, his bat at ball data is not elite. And, like, he does play in a good park, but that's a park that is actually pretty bad for left-handed power hitters. So, but... Like, Jose Ramirez's his baton ball data as an elite either.

Like, it's not like... Sure, Andrew Ben-Tendee's not... No, but, like, he has a 25% hard contact. that's low. Yeah. Like that's, like, slap there. You know what?

Let me ask a more general question. Let me ask a more general question. Sorry. Andrew Benintendi's first month of the season. Was it really that great? He basically looked like he looked last year. Like, he's fine. Now he's had an unbelievable stretch of 21 games.

Is that enough to say he's an elite outfielder? No, he's not. He's not an elite outfielder. He's very good. I think he is. I don't want to say he's bad. He's very good. But I would rather have Starling Marta in a Roto League.

I think you're underestimating just how good he was in fantasy last year. Like, he was borderline elite last year. And like I said just a minute ago, it didn't take much for him to elevate himself to this next level. Well, why do you say he was borderline elite? Because he certainly was not in Roto. A guy who hits 20 homers and steals 20 bases with a, you know, he hit like two-suff. He's not Michael Taylor with the batting average.

He had like 270. It's not like... That's pretty close to elite. Well, I mean, I think you're being a little liberal with that word. We know he's not elite. I mean, he wasn't... He was kind of an accusation. He might be elite now.

I lean against it, but mostly because... Like, he was the number 48 player in baseball in fantasy last year. He was the... Number 48? Yeah, that's a... Jay Brown pick. Jay Bruce wasn't elite last year. All right, so I'll just give you the numbers.

Ben and Tendi was 15th in point, 17th in Roto last year. He was very, like, I think he's very good. I think he's improved. So how many elite outfielders would you say there are? Six? Yeah, something like that. Yeah, probably. All right, maybe I just have a more liberal interpretation of that word then.

Yeah, I think so. Yeah, I don't think a number two outfielders elite. He's number one, though. He was number two last year, and now he's ascended to number one. But is he really that good, you know? Is he? I think so. Like, there's nothing he's doing dramatically unsustainable here.

Sure. Okay. So then, you know what else is elite? The draft app is elite. The draft app is really, really fun. I hope you guys are playing. Please sign up and use the promo code FB Today on the draft app or at draft.com. When you make your first deposit, use the code FB today.

Why should you play draft? Because just ask yourself a couple questions. Do I like, not not me. Do you out there, do you like fantasy baseball or football or hockey or golf or whatever? Do you like snake drafts? Do you want to do more of them? How about every single day? How about as many as you want?

How about starting at just $1? Oh, do you like money? Yes. So you can get cold hard cash, get paid out the next day on the draft app. All right, it's time for our fun game. How badly did Adam lose on the draft app yesterday? Oh, I won. I won.

I came in first. I had Mike Leak. Yes, Nelson Cruz, Evan Gattis, Mitch Hanigur, and Jorge Soler. I whooped you, listeners. I'm getting out a little bit of a streak here. All right, it came in first. So that was fun. See how much fun I just had?

That was some fine acting there, too. Completely genuine. Completely genuine. I did not look until just now. I'm not the liar from fantasy regulators. I'm telling the truth. I was thinking this would be a great instance for our podcast to be, like, out there on videos somewhere. because that was some fine work.

No, I just assumed I lost because I usually lose. But no, I won. See how fun that was? And it took like two minutes to do the draft. It was great. I competed against five people. Anyway, four other people. I won the draft, and I won $4.50.

Also, today on the Sportsline DFS podcast, we're going to do a bonus episode to tell you. you about best ball fantasy football drafts on the draft that will probably do a draft on there as well. All right, let's talk about some streaking hitters, guys. Time to look at players that have been very good lately. Well, Evan Gaddis won me a draft tournament last night.

Last 23 games, he's batting 289 with nine home runs and a 1033 OPS, only a 228 Babbitt for Gaddis in those 23 games. And he got off to a terrible start. All right, I'm going to make a statement, and you tell me just how crazy it is. I wouldn't be surprised if Evangadis is the number two catcher in fantasy baseball going forward. I think there's a big enough cluster, and I think Heath came into the season with him ranked as the number three catcher. I think there's a big enough cluster post-Sanchez between, like, Posey in his diminished

form, and Reo Muto, and Yosmani Grundal the way he's hit this year, and maybe Wilson Ramos. I could see Evangadas bashing his way into that group. Yeah. And this is like how I could see things playing out for Jay Bruce, by the way, where, oh, he's awful, he's awful, he's awful. And then he hits 10 home runs during a stretch of nine home runs during a stretch of 23 games, you know? Yeah.

Yeah, it happens. Cody Bellinger has homered in three straight games, guys. Are we optimistic here? You know, it's, what was I going to say? There was something I wanted to. Yeah, forget it. I'll let you guys talk about him. He has a 773 OPS so far.

And, yeah, discuss. Cody Bellinger. He's, they've talked about, I think he got too pull heavy, was the narrative. And he's trying to hit the ball to all fields more. He did hit an opposite field. An opo taco, I believe, is what the kids call them yesterday. Taco? Oh, that's right.

Yeah, and he said, right, he's trying to spray the ball around the field a little bit more. There has been also some analysis. I can't remember if it was the fan graphs or at the athletic about how he's really struggled with high fastballs. Not necessarily surprising because he does have a big upper cut swing. But he's good. I'm not terribly worried. It's nice to see him getting hot.

You know, there are enough flaws in his game to, I think, have a little bit of concern about him joining. the upper echelon of hitters, but I'm not, I don't think I've ever been terribly concerned about his start to this season. I was getting close to where I was going to bench Cody Bellinger, and the Dodgers have five games coming up this week. They're one of the five teams with only five games, so it seemed like an opportune time to make that move.

But I don't think I could risk it with the way, with him homering in three-strike games. I think the upside in a singular week is too high. And their matchups are pretty good in those five games, by the way. Bellinger. Bellinger, yes. Matt Olson is 93% owned, so people did not drop him. I think he started in over 80% of leagues. And in his last seven games, Matt Olson is 11 for 27, five home runs.

So hurrah. And he's batting 286 against lefties this year with two home runs and 70 at bats, but at least he's not terrible against them by any means. I have Matt Olson. Do you expect him to be as good as you thought he would be preseason? Not that good because I thought he would join like, I thought he'd be one of four or five players with a shot at 50 home runs and I'm past that now. But he's going to hit between 30 and 40 and be borderline must start, I would say. Cool.

Matt Olson. And then we were going to talk about Jug Peterson, but we already did. So Scott Shebler is 39% owned. I think maybe the first or second time we've said his name since the season started. Scott Shebler batting 464 with three home runs, one walk seven strikeouts in his last seven games. Three homers and a 464 batting average and a double in his last seven games. Scotty Shebler. Anybody want a piece of Scott Shebler, 39% own?

I'm kind of excited about him in like a Jock Peterson sort of way where I don't think you can do it in a three outfielder league yet, but maybe in a five outfielder league. The biggest change is that the Reds have abandoned their four outfielder rotation because it seemed like every. outfielder was slumping as a result of that. Jim Riggumann said, we're just going to try three guys out there and see who gets hot. And Chevler's gotten hot. And, like, he's, even though he's a left-handed hitter,

he's better against lefties than righties. Like, there's no reason that he should get stuck in a platoon role. Obviously, we saw him hit 30 home runs last year. And he's doing some things that are, you know, he's made some improvements from there. Now, the ground ball rate is low.

suspiciously low for a guy with 30 homer potential, but I think when you're talking about this is just a guy I can get for free off waivers with 30 homer potential. You don't worry about that so much. You don't worry about that until he's established a certain level of value. So who would you rather have Shevler or Jacques Peterson? Peterson.

Yeah. Adam. Yes, sir. Can I do one? Yeah. There was a discussion. I was listening to one of the podcasts that I wasn't on about Jose Al-Tuv.

Do you remember when that was? No. It was last week, I think. Anyway. So the discussion was about how he's not running. Fact check. Jose Al-Tube is running. Yeah, he stole base yesterday.

He has seven steals in his last 17 games. He's up to nine on the season, I believe. So he was due. He was due. Now I'm just going to say he's not homering. And hopefully... He's due to Homer. Yeah, he is hopefully due to Homer.

I think he's going to homer more often now that he hasn't homered very much? Oh, yeah, he asked to. That's a serious question. Do you think he will? No, it's not a serious. Adam, no. Okay. I don't think that.

But, you know, stuff happens in bunches. We're not doing it again. Stuff happens in bunches, that's all. No, we just had a pedantic debate about the word elite. We're not doing the coin flip debate again. Who would you rather have rest of season? Jose Altovae or Jose Ramirez? Uh-oh.

I actually did move Jose Ramirez ahead of Jose Al-Tube, but I still had Jose in the last trade chart I'm talking here. But I still had Al Tuve as the fourth overall player. It was less about him falling than Ramirez becoming maybe the second best player in fantasy. Like I think it's a clear three at the top of the fantasy rankings now, Trout Betts and Ramirez in some order. Trout, bets, and Ramirez. I mean, yeah, but like, isn't Nolan Aronado still there? Is it Al-Tubei still there?

Are they in the same group or is it like one, two, three, and then dot, dot, dot, dot, four? The way I view it is there used to be a tier of one player. Yeah. And now there's a tier of three. And there used to be a tier of like nine players. And now it's like seven or whatever. Yeah. Like Jose, yeah, Aronado's right there.

I mean, he'd be a mid-first rounder. But nobody should take him over Ramirez or Betz or Trout. Okay. Well, then. How about we talk about, let's see, we got a lot of stuff here. I want to get to the most added list. Why don't we do the most added list? I've got some underrated storylines I want to talk about as well,

but to make sure we save some time for two-star pitchers and who to add, let's talk most added players in fantasy baseball. So you guys have any fun weekend plans? You'd be more likely, too, than I will. I don't care anymore. I got the most added list up. Thank you. I plan on purchasing the Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild for the Nintendo Switch,

Switch and I'm going to play that. You're late to the party there, right? That one's been out for a while. Yeah, I've been saving and I've got a trip coming up. Have you guys ever beaten the original Zelda? Yeah. I have never beat a Zelda game actually.

And when I say, I actually, I say I haven't played a video game in a year and a half. The last video game I probably played was more recently than that. But I think it was the original Zelda when I was home on paternity leave and having to entertain my then two-year-olds. Now he's three?

I just thought he'd have an easy... I thought watching a Nintendo game would be something he would take to, and he did. He wanted me to play Link. So I didn't beat it, but I have beaten it in the past. It's really hard. It's really hard. Smart Kid, he knows that the main character's name is Link, not Zelda. Most added, most added, most added.

Clay Buckholtz is number one. We did sort of throw some cold water on that. He has a two-star pitcher, though. He has the Mets and the Pirates next week. Clay Buckholtz was not mentioned in our two-star pitchers segment earlier. All right, Max Muncie is 51% owned. What do you think about him? We haven't talked about him in about a week.

Max Muncie. Well, I think he's pretty good. He's triple eligible, right? Yeah. Third base, outfield, first base. Yeah, yeah. It makes him a little more interesting. The bar is lower when you have that kind of flexibility.

I think the power's legit. I think he's going to walk enough to. make up for a subpar batting average. I do wonder about the playing time in the long run because Kemp looks like he's good and Jack Peterson's obviously coming on and, you know, Cody Bellinger sticks around and we know Justin Turner's a fixture. But there was rumblings a couple weeks ago that they might try Muncie at second base where obviously the Dodgers could use some help.

So we'll see. But right now I'm leaving him for Roto leagues, but I think he's legitimately good. That's Max Muncie we're talking about. By the way, Scott, remind me, prospects report after we do the most added list. So the top four players on the most added list are all owned in 50 to 57% of leagues. And if you could just pick one of them, who's the most valuable do you think? Buckholz, Muncie, Evaldi, or Ben Zobrist? Benzobrist.

That's a really uninspiring list for me. It might actually be Muncie. Yeah, I think it is Muncie. Okay. Yeah, Zobos, definitely not an everyday player. Zobras does matter again. He's not an everyday player anymore either, but since coming back from the DL, April 28th, I was actually writing an article about part-timers who matter, which is why I had a lot to say about Shebler and Peterson. But Zobrist was in it also. Since April 28th, when he came off the DL, he's the number 14 second baseman in points leagues, which obviously isn't a stud, but that's somebody who matters in fantasy. That's perfect because I own him in a 14-team points league. There you go.

Ben Zobrist. All right, the next group is John Ryan Murphy, Frankie Montas. Well, they're owned in 35% of leagues. And would you drop Max Stasi for John Ryan Murphy? Probably not. I might. I might. John Ryan Murphy has shown a lot of power this year

with a dramatically improved fly ball rate, and Alex Avila's terror. I think there's a clearer path to regular playing time for Murphy. I have a little more confidence in the stacy skill set, I guess, but it's not such a wide gap. I think I'd take Ryan. If you were in a shallow league, who's more appealing to you? Brandon Nimmo or Mitch Morland? Nimmo.

Yep. If you were in a medium-depth league, who's more appealing to you? Junior Garra or Joe Musgrove? Joe Musgrove. Okay. And I think we're good here. We talked about Derek Dietrich, 23% own. Has that ownership sound to you for Derek Dietrich? I think it's probably a little low, but I get why it is as low as it is. He might make it on the top 10 sleeper hitters for this week. I like the Marlins matchups.

They're one of the few teams playing seven games, and they have a few hot headers right now. He is, I looked it up yesterday. He was the number five second baseman, no, number five third baseman, since over the last 28 days. And the last guy is Carlos Rodon. Rodon is supposed to start tomorrow. He's 56% owned. So it looks like if he starts tomorrow and they stay on schedule, his first two starts of the year are going to be at Boston and home against Cleveland.

So welcome back, Carlos Rodon. Maybe make another rehab start. Yeah, I'm more interested in him than anybody else we've talked about in this segment, and I don't think it's particularly close. I guess maybe Musgrove is No, he's not close I like Musgrove but Rodon has

Bron has Blake's himself upside. He should probably be more like 76 to 80% own the 56 right now. Okay, Carlos Rodon. So prospects, Scott, if you could tell me in a minute or two, who do we need to

own right now and I will not include Vladimir Guerrera Jr. Well, no, I mean I guess things change with the injury. After a rush of big call-ups in the last month. We feel like we're kind of stagnant right now, especially with Vladimir Guerrero on the DL and reports from the MLB network that the Blue Jays are considering promoting him to AAA in the next month. Like, just such an unfavorable combination of words, considering how good he's been at AA. I still think he does come up this year, and I want to say it'll be

sooner than later. He's far and away the most own prospect of fantasy and should be and if you drop him now, you're not getting it back. So, keep the faith there. Aloi Jimenez is also on the list of prospects to stash at this point. I haven't seen any rumblings about the White Sox

not calling him up this summer and he's certainly pushing for it with his performance in double A as well. I would also keep Willie Adamas pretty close in leagues where you need shortstop help. and I would also say yeah let's just go with those three

Are there any pitchers, Scott? Not who I think are really worth stashing in a league of any unless it's a really deep league Colby Allard I think we're getting close to seeing him in the majors he has a 2ERA, a AAA, but he also has a low strikeout rate

and so it's not clear he's going to be an impact player for fantasy purposes. John Duplanteer for the Diamondbacks before Clay Buckholz kind of took the world by storm. He seemed like somebody who may be verging on a promotion, but now he's on the DL. So there's not anybody who's really catching my attention right now.

Vladimir, Jr., Willie Adomis, Eloy Jimenez, keep those guys stashed. Let's do some emails. Actually, no, let's go through something real, quick here. I'm going to tell you a guy who pitched yesterday, you give me a quick thought. One or two sentences. Three to four sentences. One to four sentences. Cole Hamels. I'm worried about how he'll pitch in Yankee Stadium. Yeah, he's pretty close to must start for me, but he does have home run issues.

Nick Povetta. Three bad starts in a row, or three disappointing starts in a row. Yeah, disappointing. Not really that bad. Every pitcher's allowed that. More than a strikeout per inning, the overall numbers are still very good. He's good. All right. Miles Michaelis. I love Michaelis. I wish he struck out more hitters, but I think he really thrives in the other two areas that make a pitcher dominant control and ground balls. And he's must start.

I've become decidedly less skeptical about him as we've gone on. James and Tyone. His secondary pitch is now the slider that he learned how to throw literally a month ago. which is really weird. He got four swinging strikes with it on 26 pitches last night, which is okay. It's not great.

But he didn't have any swinging strikes with his other pitches, so that tells me that it's probably a weapon he needs. Moving forward, I remain more interested in him than I am, like, impressed. But I think better days are ahead. That was like eight sentences. No, there were a lot of semicolars. Rank those four pitchers.

Hamils, Povetta, Michaelis, Tyone. Hamils, Palletta, Michaelis, Tyone, and Palletta. So, Michaelis, Hamillet, Pallet, Michaelis, Tyone, Hamils. And you guys, anybody interested in Matt Boyd yet? Not really. Yeah, interest is too strong. I believe he's usable. Okay. He's been incredibly lucky.

So we got two-star pitchers, then I'll finish with some emails. Let's take a look. I think we can probably do two-star pitchers fairly quickly, but here we go. So are there any studs who have tough match-ups that we would consider sitting? I'm guessing no. This is always when I scan it. I apologize. Yeah. Dylan Bundy has Boston and Miami. We're going to start him, right? Of course. Yeah. I saw Boston.

see Miami originally. All right, here's a kind of tougher one. Tanner Roark, at the Yankees and at Toronto. I'd start him. I think I'd be okay sitting him in a Roto league. How about John Gray at Philadelphia and at Texas? I'd start him. Yeah, two starts on the road.

That's a guy I'd probably sit in Roto, but at points leagues, I'd give it a go. Jake Oteresey at Detroit and at Cleveland. See, he's below the 80% threshold. so I could talk about him as a sleeper, but Cleveland's lineup is just so good, and he's so vulnerable to home runs. Like, I could see that second to start being a disaster, so I'd rather not.

With Odarezi. All right, Sabathia is okay. I mean, you can't start Chase Anderson, right, against the Cubs and the Nationals? No, you all have got to drop him. He's like 77% on them still. Well, would you rather have next week, Scott, and Chris, Odorezzi at Detroit and Cleveland,

or Sabathia, Washington and Tampa Bay at home? Sabathia. I think I'd rather have O'Daree. Trevor Williams at Arizona, home against Cincinnati. He's been bad recently. I don't trust him. And we don't trust Buckholz against Pittsburgh and the Mets? No. Now, Wheeler doesn't show up on this list.

At least he didn't as of last night. But I'm pretty confident he's making two starts. And let me see if I can pull up those matchups real quick. Because he's been good lately. Those would be at Atlanta and at Arizona. And he has been... I think he developed a splitter that he's been throwing a lot more lately. He worked it into his arsenal over the last couple of starts, I want to say.

Okay. I feel like when I usually, I look at it as pretty much always fastball slider with a couple of, you know, single digits in there, third and fourth pitches. But regardless, he's getting strikeouts at a decent rate and not letting the walks become an issue. I think he's used, like, especially for that, because of that second starts at Arizona, which is now a great place to pitch. If you really need to get that extra start in your line, if he's useful. And I don't really know, so we said earlier, Mike Leak is okay, but we're kind of nervous because of the Boston start. Chris has some interest in Jordan Lyles. That's probably it.

Sam Gavillo at Tampa Bay and home against Washington. Any interest there, guys? He's 11% owned. No, I don't think so. Okay. So with that said, I have two segments remaining and I have about five minutes. One is eight emails and four minutes, and the other is pictures to stream over the weekend, which I forgot to do. I think it's a good idea. We've got a few suggestions from listeners. We should do that. One of us needs to read the emails while someone else looks at some pitchers that could be streamed over the weekend.

Chris, which responsibility would you like? Oh, I would much rather not have to look at streaming pitchers. That sounds like way more work than I want to do. You read the emails, you have four minutes to get to these eight emails. Scott answer them, and I will search for some pictures to stream this weekend. Scott, yeah. Teddy wants to know. Give up Otani. Get Kershaw.

Grade that trade. I will give that trade a B. Dear Adam, Scott, Heath, and the other guy. Okay, Brian. I see you. I see you. It's fine. Scott and Heath rang Domingo.

Santana about 30 spots apart. He would love to hear them discuss that ranking disparity, but you're not going to because Heath's not here. Scott, what is your take on the Domingo Santana disparity? Heath has him 39th and head to head. You have him 68th. I wonder

if Heath knows he has him 39th. Should we tell him? Baby, because I don't, I don't see the justification for that. He might lose his job. Yeah, I think he should lose his job. When Eric Thames comes back with the way Jesus Aguilar is hitting.

The power just hasn't been there. And it was a really fine, like, he really had to thread the needle to put together the stat line he had last year. Yeah, he basically needed to be like the best home run to fly ball ratio and the best bad-up in baseball to be very good. Now we're going to know. Mr. F.

Mr. F. Dear Michael, George, and Buster, is there anything in Jose Martinez's batted ball profile to suggest that more power is coming? His lack of power, aside from the home run he hit yesterday has been concerning. Yeah, the batting ball profile, he's not really a power hitter. Like, I think he hits the ball hard enough that he could flirt with 20 home runs, but that's not his game.

Jose Martinez. T-Money wants us to grade a trade. Dear Bruce, Arnold, Chuck, and Sly. Trade Reese Hoskins and Jack Flayherty get Jose Abrae. Hoskins and Flaherty for Bray-U. Rayu in a 12-team rotissory league. A Braves the best player, but I think, I don't think it's a wide enough gap between his and Hoskins. C-minus.

Yeah, C-minus. Sean, 10-team categories league. He's 7-2 and has a comfortable lead in first place. Should he drop Ian Hap for Mark Malanson as a speculative ad? Yeah, 10-team league. Zobrist's rise is kind of pushed Hap out again. Bill, subject, Sam Gaviglio, is he fantasy relevant in a 12-team head-to-head league, or any 12-team to head-to-head league for that, a 12-team league for that matter?

Or is it a wait-and-see situation? I don't have a lot of hoping the upside. I guess you could wait and see, but I suspect you're going to wait and have reason to forget about it. Scott, Tom wants to know, over the last 21 days, Gregory Polanco has a triple-slash line of 160. 259, 280, zero home runs. During that same period, Derek Dietrich, Dustin Fallow, Carlos Gonzalez, and Daniel Palka

are crushing it. Would you drop Gregory Polanco for one of those four? No, they're just, they're too low ends, and there are still reasons to be optimistic that Polanco can turn this around and become a must-start caliber player. But that being said, Austin Meadows lurks, And he's actually stolen the most of bets from Polanco so far.

I just don't think there's enough upside from this group of four to bother. Matt, a very sad Orioles fan who wants them to just trade Mani Machado already, wants to know, would you drop Ryan Braun to add Jake Bowers? And who do you think will have the best home runs, batting averages, and stolen bases the rest of the season? I think Bowers will have the best batting average, but Braun will probably beat him in the other two areas. You can't drop Ryan Brown for Jake Bowers. No, it's probably closer than most people think just looking at the names, but I couldn't do that, no. What was the time there, Adam?

Pretty close, I'd say. All right, well, I pretty much finished. Let's see what we got here. Let me just see how owned Fernando Romero is. I like that you're outsourcing now. Probably like 80%. I'm going to say 82%. 70%.

Okay, Fernando Romero will join that. I've got a bunch of guys, so we're going to go a little bit of, overtime today. All right. So on Friday, today, we've got Mike Montgomery against Pittsburgh, yes or no? No. Yes. Yolisha Sia Zina, Philadelphia.

Yes. Yeah, I'm not as comfortable with that, but yeah. Andrew Suarez at Washington. No. No. Matt Harvey against St. Louis. No. Eric Lauer at Miami.

No. Yes. Lance Lynn against the Angels. No. Zach Granky at Colorado. Yes. Yeah. Frankie Montas against Kansas City.

No. Not very helpful. Brandon McCarthy at the Dodgers? No. No. It's a revenge game, though. On Saturday. Kyle Gibson against the Angels.

That's really borderline. I'm going to lean yes. Yep. Nick Kingham at the Cubs. No. No. Carlos Rodon at the Red Sox. No.

No. Danny Duffy at Oakland. No. No. Trevor Cahill at Kansas City. Yes. Felix Hernandez at Tampa? Yes.

No. Dan St. Raleigh against San Diego. No. No. Domingo Ramon at the Mets. No. Yes. Marco Estrada against Baltimore.

No. They're terrible against Ritey. Nadevaldi against Seattle. No. No. Anthony DiSkofani against St. Louis. No. Jose Arrania against San Diego.

No. Yes. Oh. Clayton Richard at Miami. Yes. Yes. Fernando Romero against the Angels. Yes. Yes. Oh, both yes. Okay. Freddie Peralta at Philadelphia. No, but I want to watch it. And Brad Keller at Oakland. No. Nope. Okay. I'm not sure. It seems like Trevor Cahill was a yes. Yes. Clayton Richard was a yes. Fernando Romero was a yes. And maybe Yolisha Seen at Philadelphia was a yes.

Man, Clayton Richard, that was a dark horse pick. You said yes to that? It should be Jose Orania. Scott ruined it. Thanks for listening, everybody. Please enjoy your weekend. We will talk to you on Monday. See ya.
