1 JUL 2024 · Fantasy Baseball Live – June 30, 2024 Segments 1 and 2 – Review the games of the weekend. Additional Questions: 1.Pablo Lopez with two strong starts but he has the Astros next. Do you start him? 2.Heston Kjerstad hit a granny last night. Does he get enough at-bats to warrant rostering him? 3.George Springer hit two home runs on Friday. One good night doesn’t turn this season around, but are you still running him out, or is he on your bench? Are you dropping him in one-year leagues? How about Dynasty Leagues? 4.It was announced on Friday that James Wood will make his debut on Monday. I’m assuming the Nat’s did it to fill the seats on a slow, early summer Monday. Many rookie hitters have underperformed this season (particularly early after their callup), will he break that trend? 5.Speaking of rookies, Jackson Chourio is getting better. He’s slashing .314/.355/.543 with four home runs in June and only striking out 17% of the time. Is he starting to figure things out? 6.WOW, the Mets. What has been the difference? They clicked once Francisco Alvarez got back, and they started Vientos or Baty. Is it that easy? a.They have crawled back to .500. Are they going to be buyers or sellers at the deadline?

24 JUN 2024 · Fantasy Baseball Live – June 23, 2024 Segments 1 and 2 – Review the games of the weekend Additional Questions: 1.Let'sx dive into the topic of the NL MVP race. Is Shohei Ontani running away with it? He has 23 home runs, 16 SB, and a .321 batting average. He’s leading the NL in WAR at 4.2 with no defensive help. Next in line is Harper at 3.4. a.BTW, Gunnar Henderson and Aaron Judge are in quite a duel for the best player in the AL. Gunnar at 5.2 WAR and Judge at 5.2. Judge has 28 home runs, but Gunnar is not far behind at 24. Who wins the AL MVP? 2.Giancarlos Stanton left the game with tightness in his hamstring. And so it begins. Any idea who gets the playing time? 3.Zach Neto is having a breakout season and left last night's game with a strained calf. If he has to go on the IL, who is the pickup? 4.With the huge correction happening with Imanaga. I mean, brutal! Is the favorite for ROY leading to Jackson Merrill? He has 10 home runs, 9 stolen bases, and is hitting .290. Maybe Masyn Winn should get some consideration. 5.Tyler Soderstrom with another home run. Is it time for people to jump on the train? 6.Ryan Bliss was one of my sleepers entering the season. What do you think so far of his performance? He now has both SS and 2B eligibility. 7.Jon Gray has had quite the resurgence this season. He’s pitching to a 3.03 ERA, but his xERA is 4.28 with one of the highest exit velo against in the league. Is he a sell high? 8.Drew Thorpe looked good on Saturday. Are you ready to trust him beyond the Tigers of the league? 9.Carlos Rodon pitched terribly on Friday and was seen crying in the dugout. Is that a good thing or bad thing? Segment 3 – Waiver Wire Segment 4 – Closer Report Close

21 JUN 2024 · Take 10 with Tim – June 21, 2024 1. The injuries have been brutal of late. What is your advice for managers who have been kicked in the teeth multiple times this season with the loss of, just not fifth outfielder, put first, second, and third-round picks? 2.    Mookie Betts will be out for 6 to 8 weeks with a fractured hand. This opens up an opportunity for a player to step up. Who do you think will seize this chance and make a significant impact? 3.    Kyle Bradish will have Tommy John Surgery.  This should secure Cade Povich for the rest of the season.  How good can he be this year and in the future? 4.    Bo Bichette hits the IL with a calf strain.  While it doesn’t sound too bad, that doesn’t seem to be the case this season.  Orelvis Martinez gets his chance.  Does he hit?  Does he stick? 5.    Christian Encarnacion Strand might need season-ending surgery. Noelvi Marte should be finishing his 80-game suspension soon, as the Reds have played 75 games this year.  Is he the answer for playing time there.  Should fantasy managers be excited by the potential? 6.    Anthony Rizzo is out for two months with a fractured arm.  Ben Rice has been promoted and will get the strong side of the platoon.  Should fantasy managers be excited about this? 7.    Justin Verlander hits the IL with neck soreness.  It might not be too long, but the Astros are out of pitchers.  What will they do?  Is there anything of interest for fantasy managers? 8.    Yimi Garcia hits the IL with a nerve issue in his elbow.  I’ve heard of no time frame for his return.  Who is the pickup for saves now in Toronto? 9.    As expected, Mike Trout is healing slower than anticipated.  It’s really interesting that some people heal faster than others.  I remember when Albert Puljos broke his arm and spent the minimum time on the IL (15 days).  Trout appears to be on the opposite side of that equation.  Not a criticism, just an observation and a disappointment to his fantasy managers.  Thoughts? 10.    Tyler Black has been promoted back to the Brewers.  Does he get enough playing time to be relevant for fantasy managers? 11.    Johan Rojas was demoted earlier this week when the Phillies activated Trea Turner from the IL.  Were you surprised that Rojas got demoted?  They kept Mickey Moniak, Christian Pache, and David Dahl.  Sure, they were all of out options, but really? 12.    The Mets are playing much better, and arguably, Christian Scott, their best pitcher, was sent back to the minors and continues to pitch well.  What am I missing? 13.    What hitter are you targeting for this weekend’s FAAB? 14.    What pitcher are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?

17 JUN 2024 · Fantasy Baseball Live – June 16, 2024 Segments 1 and 2 – Weekend’s Baseball Games Additional Notes: 1.Yamamoto – bummer… 2.Michael Harris hits the IL list with a grade-2 hamstring issue. Grade 2 means four weeks or so – maybe longer. Who is the pickup? 3.Kyle Bradish is back on the IL with more elbow inflammation. What do the Orioles do? Chayce McDermott? 4.DJ Herz shoves it on Saturday. I’ve been writing about him for years. He doesn’t throw hard, but it’s also getting a ton of whiffs. The change-up is pretty good. He did get 21 whiffs on 45 swings on Saturday, which is pretty good. It was against the Marlins. Thoughts? 5.The Astros parted ways with Jose Abreu, getting over 50% of this contract. Ouch. Joey Loperfido didn’t get the call, but that could have been because he needs to spend 10 days in Triple-A (unless there is an injury). Is he the guy who eventually takes over? 6.Are you ready to trust Edwin Diaz again? 7.Hunter Brown is starting to look good? Thoughts? 8.Gerrit Cole had a nice Triple-A tune up. 10K in 4.2 IP. Fastball though was off by over 2 MPH. Hmmm. Segment 3 – Waiver Wire Segment 4 – Closer Report Close
