10 Takeaways from the Tout Wars Experts Leagues

dj@rotowire.com (Jeff Erickson, Fred Zinkie) — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 22:47:54 +0000

Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson share their top reactions from the Tout Wars Experts Leagues, including two record-setting buys of Aaron Judge in successive drafts.

---

00:00 RotoWire MLB Podcast 3-17-26

00:15 Welcome to Fred Zinkie

00:30 RotoWire Smart Money - https://t.co/qcmg4BiQus

01:45 News

02:00 Gerrit Cole will start tomorrow.

03:10 MacKenzie Gore has a 6:6 K:BB ratio in ST. Globe Life Field better work its magic.

06:30 NFBC Main Event draft slot

10:00 Thoughts on the Closer Market

16:00 Why can’t the Reds just say that Chase Burns is going to make the team?

22:00 Fantrax

23:00 ToutWars Results

24:00 Aaron Judge

32:30 Kyle Bradish seems like your best purchase, when compared to the other SP prices.

34:15 Fred likes the Kirby Yates pick. He is starting to look like their closer.

37:00 You haven’t mentioned Samuel Basallo as a target….was that just a value purchase?

39:20 Dominic Canzone

40:00 How to do Stars and Scrubs Right

43:20 Are you becoming the Chase DeLauter guy? There isn’t much buzz on him, even though he seems certain to make the team.

45:01 BlueWire

45:10 I’d also like to comment on the Mixed Auction, since it is relevant to many of our listeners. We saw a $63 Judge and four players go for $50 or more. The high NFBC auction average is $48. Did these drafters get carried away?

46:30 The second and third tier of closers were so cheap. For $20, you could get two closers from the Jansen, Santana, Hader, Walker tier, and a couple speculative closers, like O’Brien or Beeter. Is that better than $22-25 for a top-tier closer?

49:30 Brewers relievers

52:00 Also in the Mixed, McGonigle went for $21, while Griffin went for $11 and Wetherholt went for $4. That doesn’t make much sense to me, or anyone who looks at ADP.

55:00 Tout Wars Champions League.

55:30 Most popular format (H2H Categories, daily transactions) on many sites. But a format that we rarely discuss. How should we attack the smaller lineups (10H, 7 P).

57:00 Is punting a category an option?

10 Expert League Picks You Should Steal

dj@rotowire.com (Jeff Erickson, Fred Zinkie) — Wed, 4 Mar 2026 05:06:28 +0000

Is the Pocket Aces strategy dead, or just out of favor? Jeff Erickson discuss that talking point amongst their other observations from the LABR 15-team Mixed League draft.

---

00:00 MLB 2-3-26 Podcast

00:30 Jurickson Profar suspension.

07:30 Josh Hader might finally throw off a mound next week.

09:30 Quinn Priester may not be ready for OD.

15:30 Edwin Uceta is unlikely to be ready for OD.

17:30 Royce Lewis should be back in a week.

20:00 Mike Clevinger had a good start. Bubba Chandler has 7 walks in 3 innings.

22:45 Fernando Tatis to bat 3rd or 4th. Xander Bogaerts could bat leadoff.

24:00 Fantrax

24:52 BlueWire

25:00 10 takeaways from LABR and other early drafts

25:30 Fred was the only drafter who selected two SPs in the initial four rounds. Is the Pocket Aces strategy dead?

30:30 Why does no one want the batting average specialists? I thought that Jacob Wilson was the biggest value pick in the draft. Luis Arraez in Rd. 18 is so late too.

35:30 Why does no one believe in prospects? Has Scott Pianowski’s “avoid the shiny new toy” message finally won?!

38:00 Are we overpaying for poor save sources in a bad closer market? The RPs in Rd. 10-13 are a pretty questionable group, either in terms of skills or role.

42:00 Which Rd. 2 picks were the most surprising to you? I see a few.

45:00 Jeff had a steady stream of yellow at the bottom of your draft. Who were your favorites? And were there any that you instantly regretted?

49:30 Fred regretting Shane Bieber

51:15 Fred decided to use the unlimited IL spots to hoard players, much like MLB teams do. \

53:00 Jose Caballero - do you see a scenario where he remains in a full-time role when Volpe is ready to return?

55:15 We each drafted two players who will likely have a single-digit homer total. How many of these players can you roster without having a problem?

10 Vital Second Half Stats

Jeff Erickson and Fred Zinkie discuss the final week's playoff races and 10 Second Half Stats you might not know.

---

00:00 Week 27 Fred Pod

00:15 Welcome

00:30 Playoff Update

03:45 Second half stats that warrant discussion…….

04:30 The Cubs are 27th in second half runs. Is this what this offense will look like without Kyle Tucker?

11:30 The Cardinals are last in second half runs. Is it time for more of a deep rebuild?

26:15 The Astros are 26th in second half runs. Does Yordan Alvarez mean this much to this offense?

20:30 The Athletics and D-backs are tied for 8th in second half record. Are the Athletics postseason contenders for 2026? And how did the D-backs survive their fire sale?

27:00 Chalkboard

28:00 The Mets are 25th in second half record.

32:50 Tied with the Giants. How much work do these teams need to do in order to contend next year?

36:30 The Tigers are 21st in second half record. Were we premature in declaring that they’ve arrived?

41:00 Could they be like the Orioles, who had brief success but couldn’t sustain?

47:00 The MLB leaders in second half OPS is George Springer. How early will he be drafted next year, at age 36?

48:30 Bryan Woo is tied for the second half lead in SO. His career WHIP is under 1.00. Top-10 SP for 2026?

52:30 Hunter Brown leads the Majors in second half ERA. I never hear him mentioned as the SP4 for 2026.

Defensive Stats That Matter

dj@rotowire.com (Jeff Erickson, Fred Zinkie) — Tue, 16 Sep 2025 21:24:05 +0000

Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson discuss the playoff races, Yordan Alvarez, and defensive stats that matter.

---

00:00 Fred Pod 9-16

00:15 Welcome

00:30 News:

01:00 Yordan Alvarez sprains ankle…..

06:30 Yesavage, Eldridge debuted……

11:20 Bo Bichette getting second opinion on knee…..

13:20 Jordan Westburg returns….. Kyle Bradish already looks like an ace again…..

17:30 Cole Ragans returns tomorrow…..

20:00 Sal Stewart continues to mash…..

22:15 Daylen Lile is hitting cleanup and having a nice September…..

24:20 Zach Neto to the IL

29:15 Chalkboard

30:15 Defensive stats that matter

31:05 Ceddanne Rafaela is second among CF in FRV.

32:45 Augustin Ramirez is dead last in baseball in FRV.

34:30 Edgar Quero is tied with Ramirez for the bottom spot in FRV. This is a big reason that Kyle Teel will be their No. 1 catcher next year.

35:45 Nick Castellanos is the worst OF in baseball and hasn’t hit well.

37:15 Logan O’Hoppe has a -11 FRV and has hit poorly in for several months.

38:45 Heliot Ramos has a mediocre .729 OPS and a -11 FRV. He could lose playing time too.

40:30 Ronald Acuna Jr. used to be an average CF. He’s now one of the worst RF in baseball (-8). His sprint speed has declined, likely due to injury. I may project just 15 steals.

42:10 How do we feel about Jasson Dominguez for 2026? He’s so young but has a -9 FRV and a .720 OPS.

45:46 BlueWire

45:50 Positive Defensive Stats

46:10 Patrick Bailey is the best defender in baseball by a wide margin.

47:15 Dillon Dingler and Carlos Narvaez have both been top-5 defensive catchers.

48:40 Ke’Bryan Hayes is the best 3B. No matter how he hits, he’s going to play.

49:30 On a per-inning basis, Denzel Clarke is the best defensive OF this year.

52:50 Trea Turner is a top-5 defensive SS and leads the Majors in average sprint speed.

What's Wrong with the Mets?

dj@rotowire.com (Jeff Erickson, Fred Zinkie) — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 23:24:00 +0000

Fred Zinkie asks "What's Wrong with the Mets?" He and Jeff Erickson discuss five struggling offenses since the All-Star Break.

---

00:00 Fred Pod 8-12-25

00:20 Welcome

01:00 Main Topic - What’s wrong with these teams?

01:47 These five teams have all ranked among the bottom-10 in OPS, runs scored and wRC+. Should we bench some of their hitters, because we don’t have time to wait for them to turn things around? And should we stream pitchers against them?

03:15 Mets

08:30 Rays

13:25 Cardinals

19:15 Nationals

23:30 Rangers

26:45 Chalkboard

27:45 News. Plenty of it today.

28:00 Jose Hader is getting tests done on his shoulder. Uh oh.

30:30 Cristian Javier earned a win in his return. Is he ready to join fantasy lineups?

32:10 Shane McClanahan is done for the season, proving once again that injury optimism is not your friend. Grayson Rodriguez also underwent elbow surgery.

33:10 Cole Ragans threw a bullpen session. He’s sitting on waivers in some leagues and could be back in early September. Worth a stash?

35:45 Chase Burns is facing an innings limit and the Reds are getting two starters back. Drop him?

38:50 Devin Williams pitched the sixth inning and is an easy drop. I’m interested to see if he gets a closer’s job in free agency.

41:00 Corbin Carroll set a career high in homers last night. He has really shifted his fantasy profile and may not steal 20 bases this year. He still has 98th percentile sprint speed.

43:20 The Tigers just won’t let us have a closer. Kyle Finnegan earned the win and Will Vest picked up the save.

44:30 Will Warren picked up a win. Take out a couple disasters, and he has been excellent this summer.

46:20 Kyle Schwarber homered. He’s second in HR and RBI. Sixth in runs. Has 10 steals. Will only be 32 next year. Why can’t he be a first round pick?

Streaking Mariners & Brewers / FAAB Recap

They also hit much more across baseball, including Josh Naylor's SB binge, Lawrence Butler's struggles and whether Kyle Schwarber can steal the NL MVP from Shohei Ohtani.

07:15 News & Notes

12:30 Nick Lodolo, to IL……

15:00 Austin Riley and Tommy Edman

19:00 Nathan Lukes survived the trade deadline as the Jays leadoff hitter and reached base five times yesterday.

20:40 Michael Soroka is already on the IL…..Ben Brown relieved Soroka and pitched well, so it’s likely time to add him and then get burned by him…..

23:00 Roman Anthony is day-to-day. He’s playing great but isn’t doing much in fantasy…..

26:00 NFFC

26:45 Let’s look at some of the best and worst pitchers in recent weeks. Because some of the best ones aren’t getting much credit and some of the worst ones are still in lineups.

28:15 Matthew Boyd 1.69

31:10 Christopher Sanchez 1.71

43:00 Eric Lauer 2.54

Five Trade Deadline Sellers

dj@rotowire.com (Fred Zinkie, Jeff Erickson) — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 22:44:58 +0000

The Diamondbacks have started the trade deadline by dealing Josh Naylor to the Mariners. Who else will be sellers? Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson preview Thursday's trade deadline from a seller's perspective.

---

00:00 Fred Pod 7-29

00:20 Welcome

01:15 Seranthony Dominguez to the Jays … Felix Bautista is expected to be out for a while. I think he can be cut.

09:00 Emmanuel Clase suspension. Is he a drop? Probably depends on your saves standings.

13:45 Cade Smith boost is obvious but should be mentioned. And there are rumors that more CLE suspensions are on the way……

15:00 Tigers - Reese Olson out for season, Parker Meadows to the IL, Chris Paddack traded to Tigers.

20:00 Eugenio Suarez…..

23:15 NFFC

24:45 Sellers at the deadline

25:45 Orioles: Ryan O’Hearn and Cedric Mullins are likely gone. Coby Mayo will get to play more. Zach Eflin, Charlie Morton, Gregory Soto gone as well.

28:30 Guardians: Except Shane Bieber. Cade Smith, Hunter Gaddis? Steven Kwan?

31:35 White Sox: They’ll try to move Aaron Civale and Luis Robert Jr.

34:30 Royals: With Lugo signed, are they out of the selling market.

36:30 Twins: Harrison Bader and Willi Castro should be traded. Maybe Joe Ryan?!

42:30 Angels: I feel like they won’t sell. Agree?

46:40 A’s: I don’t see much here, unless they can get someone to take Luis Severino. Jeffrey Springs is likely available for the right price.

49:20 BlueWire

49:30 Marlins: Will they trade Edward Cabrera and Sandy Alcantara? They’ve played well this summer. Maybe they should stand pat, try to get Weathers, Meyer and Garrett back, and compete next year?

54:00 Braves: Raisel Iglesias and Marcell Ozuna are gone. Dylan Lee and Pierce Johnson to share saves?

58:00 Nationals: Quietly one of baseball’s most disappointing teams. Kyle Finnegan should be gone. Josh Bell too, if anyone wants him. I think that’s it.

59:45 Cardinals: Ryan Helsley is a pending FA who would do wonders for PHI or LAD. Would they trade Sonny Gray with one year remaining? I think they’re stuck with Nolan Arenado at this point.

1:03:50 Pirates: Mitch Keller, David Bednar, Dennis Santana.

1:05:15 D-backs: The sell-off has started. Merrill Kelly, Zac Gallen and Eugenio Suarez are all likely gone. Keep an eye on Lourdes Gurriel Jr., who will likely decline his player option.

1:06:20 Rockies: I have no idea. This team stinks.

1:09:40 Giants - Lost 4 in a row, but not selling.

---

00:00 Trade Deadline Buyers

00:20 Welcome

00:30 Break up the Brewers

01:00 News

02:45 Tanner Scott felt something in his forearm.

05:15 Yordan Alvarez is making slow progress.

06:15 Shane McClanahan is facing a delay in his rehab assignment.

07:00 Same with Grayson Rodriguez, who is undergoing imaging on his elbow.

09:00 Shelby Miller is throwing to hitters today. He could be traded or could be the team’s closer in a couple weeks.

10:00 Adley Rutschman vs. Ivan Herrera

12:00 Sell low on Freddie Freeman?

13:45 Mookie Betts vs CJ Abrams

15:30 Josh Jung returned and homered.

18:00 NFFC

18:45 Trade Deadline Buyers Preview

19:00 What are these teams likely to acquire, and who could be bumped from their current roles?

19:30 Blue Jays: Where to add to a team that is getting average production at almost every position.

26:40 Tigers: Add CF? Closer? SP5?

30:00 Astros: Add OF? With injured SP coming back, they seem fine elsewhere.

32:00 Yankees: Prob need 2 SP and a 3B

34:45 Red Sox: SP for sure. I kind of like the lineup.

36:15 Rays: Typically, impossible to predict. Could buy and sell. Unload Littell and add someone.

39:00 Home Run Forecast

39:45 Mariners: 2B, 3B, RF.

43:45 Phillies: Closer, more than any other contender. Maybe LF too.

47:00 Mets: C, 2B, 3B.

49:30 Cubs: 3B, SP.

51:30 Brewers: I have no idea. They are similar to the Jays offensively.

53:30 Dodgers: Only RPs?

55:20 Padres: A rare team that could take an elite hitter and stick him at DH

57:25 BlueWire

57:30 Giants: SP, 1B.

5 Things You Need to Know BEFORE Fantasy Baseball Starts

dj@rotowire.com (Jeff Erickson, Fred Zinkie) — Tue, 25 Mar 2025 03:18:09 +0000

Mookie Betts is the incredible shrinking man, Shane McClanahan got hurt in his last spring training start, Cam Smith made the Astros Opening Day roster, Braves pitchers keep rising on the draft boards and the closer market got tighter with Alexis Diaz hitting the IL. Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson hit how these stories are changing late fantasy drafts and early free agent periods and more!

---

00:00 Fred Pod 3-24

00:30 Welcome

01:00 First FAAB Run

03:30 LABR FAAB Results - Cam Smith

09:30 Mookie Betts

16:30 Quick ME recap

16:45 Zac Gallen

24:20 Roupp over Birdsong

27:45 Does anyone ever punt saves in the ME, and take advantage of the inflation?

31:20 Xavier Edwards in a big contest, because he could steal 75.

34:00 Fantrax

35:00 Did the hype go too far on some SPs during draft season?

35:30 Robbie Ray and Christopher Sanchez inside the top 100?

39:00 Gavin Williams and Clay Holmes inside the top 150? Did we wind up disrespecting guys like Luis Castillo and Freddy Peralta, who are consistently good?

54:30 BlueWire

54:35 How much is a win worth (Landon Knack)?

57:50 Streaming early in April. For example, Chris Paddack and Simeon Woods-Richardson can be streamed vs. CWS next week.

1:00:55 Landen Roupp and Hayden Birdsong.

1:03:15 Kristian Campbell or Jackson Holliday?

1:06:00 Nolan Jones - Will Brennan may not make the team. It seems like this trade is a loss for everyone except Jordan Beck. I don’t like it for Nolan Jones, Noel, all the other Rockies.

1:08:45 What are we expecting from Victor Scott? Does his addition ruin a Nolan Gorman bounceback season?

1:11:30 Is it concerning that Corbin Burnes is starting the fifth game of the season?

Depth Chart Questions w/ KC Bubba

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 8 Jan 2025 18:03:19 +0000

Athletics

Osvaldo Bido will be in the rotation, right? Roster Resource has him at AAA for some reason…

Arizona

Nowhere for Jordan Lawlar to play?

Atlanta

Will they really go into the year with one of Ian Anderson, AJ Smith-Shawver or Bryce Elder in the rotation?

Baltimore

Probably nowhere for Heston Kjerstad or Coby Mayo to play as things stand, but they’re both seemingly a trade or an injury away. Any current interest?

Boston

More PA, Kristian Campbell or David Hamilton?

Chicago Cubs

Draft Ben Brown now and hope he wins the fifth starter’s spot?

Chicago White Sox

Likelihood Edgar Quero, Colson Montgomery, Bryan Ramos make Opening Day roster?

Cincinnati

Noelvi Marte, Rhett Lowder ticketed for Triple-A?

Cleveland

How much will Jhonkensy Noel play?

Colorado

What will Jordan Beck’s role be?

Detroit

Should we expect Jackson Jobe to make the Opening Day rotation?

Houston

Who intrigues us most as an OF flyer? Chas McCormick, Jake Meyers, Zach Dezenzo, Jacob Melton, Taylor Trammell…

Kansas City

Intrigued by any of Kris Bubic, Alec Marsh, Kyle Wright, Michael Loreznen?

Los Angeles Angels

Seems pretty straightforward. Are we tracking what Reid Detmers and/or Caden Dana do in spring training?

Los Angeles Dodgers

Who plays more, Hyesong Kim or Andy Pages?

Miami

Derek Hill is going to play more than people think – one of the rare Roster Resource mess-ups currently

Milwaukee

What will Caleb Durbin’s role be to start the year?

Minnesota

Who will be the fourth and fifth starters? Simeon Woods Richardson, Chris Paddack, David Festa, Zebby Matthews

New York Mets

More playing time in 2025, Ronny Mauricio or Luisangel Acuna?

New York Yankees

How confident are we in Jasson Dominguez playing every day?

Philadelphia

Worried about Bryson Stott’s lineup placement and platoon when the team is at full strength?

Pittsburgh

What will Nick Yorke’s role be?

San Diego

Team Top-Heavy, everybody who can play will be playing

San Francisco

Will Hayden Birdsong make the Opening Day rotation?

Seattle

Top-heavy depth chart, presumably not done adding. Any interest in their cheap guys, Ryan Bliss, Dominic Canzone, Tyler Locklear, Austin Shenton?

St. Louis

Will Michael McGreevy open the year at Triple-A?

Tampa Bay

Will Richie Palacios or Jose Caballero play enough for us to use them?

Texas

Will Kumar Rocker be in the Opening Day rotation?

Toronto

Addison Barger, Ernie Clement, Orelvis Martinez or a player not currently on the roster as starting 3B?

Washington

Is Jacob Young really going to play every day in CF again?

Players That Can Still Move the 2025 Needle

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 17 Sep 2024 04:37:26 +0000

Because of his late start to the season and uneven results after returning from injury, it's difficult to put a 2025 value on Gerrit Cole, so his remaining starts in the regular season and playoffs will hopefully reveal more to us.

Better in Real Life, Better in Fantasy

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 3 Sep 2024 04:57:05 +0000

Inspired by Daulton Varsho, Jeff Erickson and Fred Zinkie review which players are better in real life than fantasy, and which players are better in fantasy in real life, and try to find some underlying trends.

---

00:00 - Fred Pod 9-2

01:00 - Daulton Varsho comment from Sunday night.

02:15 - Varsho isn’t a good real-life hitter, but he’s been decent for fantasy this year ($8) and hit .281 with 18 runs and four homers in August.

04:50 - Players who were better in real life than fantasy this year.

05:00 - Bryce Harper. 11th in OPS but just a $22 player. He will hit 30 homers, but without many steals and his batting average is more good than great.

10:00 - Freddie Freeman. 14th in OPS but a $20 player. He may not reach 25 homers or 10 steals. Hitting .285, which is fine but not special.

17:00 - Riley Greene. 20th in OPS. But hitting .259 with 20 homers and 4 steals. Missed a bit of time, but his R/RBI aren’t great either. An $11 player.

22:15 - Popular opinion is that J.D. Martinez has been very good for the Mets. It’s true. He has a .777 OPS. But he has generated just $4 in fantasy. Just 16 HR, 0 SB, 108 R+RBI.

29:00 - Orioles talk - Jackson Holliday, Coby Mayo

32:00 - Better in fantasy than real life.

32:20 - Maikel Garcia is second last in OPS. Has generated $17 in fantasy. The 33 steals and 83 runs scored are pretty awesome.

35:15 - Jacob Young is a poor man’s version of Garcia. Eighth worst OPS but a $9 player thanks to hitting .258 with 31 steals and 69 runs. He’s one of baseball’s worst hitters but is helping fantasy teams in 3/5 categories.

38:35 - Zack Gelof has the 4th worst OBP of any qualified player. He also has 16 HR and 20 SB. A $4 player so far.

42:30 - Christopher Morel is batting .196 while somehow generating $3 in fantasy value. That’s what 21 homers and 8 steals will do for you.

44:25 - Brice Turang has sunk to 13th worst in OPS but has generated $18 in fantasy production thanks to seven homers and 40 steals. Almost as valuable as Freeman.

46:15: - Firing up Julio Rodriguez, who’s next?

47:00: - Alexis Diaz

52:25 - Good News for the Padres: Yu Darvish may return Wednesday; Joe Musgrove had a great start against the Tigers; Tatis is back.

Drop Julio Rodriguez?

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 28 Aug 2024 13:58:31 +0000

Julio Rodriguez was a top-5 picks in most drafts, but he's currently a bad hitter on a bad offense playing on a bad ankle, meaning that he won't give you stolen bases. Is he perhaps a drop for 2024? Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson explore that question and hone in on some second-half trends.

---

00:00 - Fred Pod 08-27

00:45 - Fred: I heard you and Scott talking about Julio Rodriguez. Can Julio be a 1st round 2025 pick and someone who you should drop right now? Lousy hitter, lousy offense, no base stealing with his ankle.

06:00 - Could J-Rod get shut down?

09:00 - Walker Buehler drop?

09:30 - Map out ahead of time

12:00 - Any injury cut, like Robbie Ray

13:30 - Kyle Tucker sprinting!

14:30 - Pick up more hot hands? Maybe just better matchups.

16:50 - Don’t cut Luis Robert

23:45 - Sometimes using season-long stats is better. Bigger sample size. But sometimes it isn’t, because teams change during the season. Here are some second half team stats that listeners may find interesting. After all, if we are going to stream down the stretch, we need to know what each team looks like right now.

25:45 - Houston is 24th in runs scored. Cleveland is 20th Boston is 3rd.

30:45 - KC is 2nd.

35:40 - Diamondbacks lead MLB in runs scored

38:00 - The Rays are 29th in runs scored but first in steals!

40:00 - Tampa is first in ERA. Detroit is 6th. Oakland is 10th. Boston is 29th. Baltimore is 23rd.

44:15 - Meanwhile, not only as the Astros and Braves not scoring, but they are also have the bottom of the league in steals. After being among the leaders in first half steals, the Brewers are mid-pack in the second half. The Giants are the opposite – last in the first half but mid-pack in the second half.

Six Stretch-Run Stars

6 players that can push you over the top for the stretch run, including how the revamped Jays look following their trade deadline deals.

---

00:00 - Fred Pod 8-13

01:30 - Players to mention

02:00 - Junior Caminero,

05:30 - Christopher Morel

06:45 - Jordan Walker,

09:40 - Zebby Matthews,

12:00 - Seth Lugo

14:45 - Kerry Carpenter, George Kirby

19:40 - Lane Thomas

22:30 - MLB has played exactly one month of games since the start of second-half play. Here are some stats that are relevant for fantasy discussion.

23:50 - Luis Robert leads the Majors by a wide margin with 40 SO. Given his second half slash line (.123/.155/.210) and lackluster offense, is it reasonable to bench him? Maybe he has mailed it in?

27:20 - Aaron Judge ranks first in walks by a wide margin (27). He also ranks second in OPS. I still go back to all the projection systems, who told us to draft him in the top-5. Do we need to learn a lesson about overrating injury history, especially with hitters?

35:15 - Jake Burger has already hit more homers in the second half (12) than the first half (10). He is also among the second half strikeout leaders, if that matters. He is the leader in second half homers.

36:30 - Xavier Edwards places first in steals (13). Hitting .360. Have the Marlins found a piece to the puzzle?

41:50 - Vladdy leads the Majors in second half OPS (.1475). Hitting .464 with more walks than strikeouts. Is this a hot streak, or is Vladdy finally turning the corner? Along with Judge, Vladdy is another player who the projection systems told us to draft ahead of his ADP.

48:15 - Tanner Houck 5.48 ERA, 1.70 WHIP, 12:12: K:BB in 23 IP.

51:40 - Elly De La Cruz ranks second in strikeouts but first in steals and is batting .310. Which shows that nothing can stop Elly from being valuable.

53:30 - Ryne Nelson 3.19 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 36:9 K:BB. Spencer Arrighetti 3.60 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 36:6 K:BB. Spencer Schwellenbach (3.12 ERA, 0.88 WHIP, 36:2 K:BB). These three SPs are second in SO, behind Blake Snell.

11:00 - A’s: Rooker? Sears? Mason Miller?!

15:00 - Angels: Taylor Ward? Tyler Anderson? Estevez? Luis Rengifo?

19:00 - Blue Jays: Kikuchi, Turner, Jansen, Garcia. Would they trade Gausman, Bassitt or Berrios? Will Chad Green get traded or close for the Jays for the rest of the season?

23:40 - Marlins: Chisholm, Tanner Scott. De La Cruz? Are the Marlins as far away as their record suggests? Their 2025 rotation could be Alcantara, Garrett, Luzardo, Weathers, Cabrera.

31:00 - Rockies: Quantrill? Ryan McMahon? Do the Rockies think they’re close?

48:30 - Astros: 1 SP, 1 OF

59:10 - Brewers: CF. SP.

59:40 - Dodgers: SP. RP. 2B/SS.

1:01:30 - Braves: OF. And maybe a SP with Fried out.

First-Half / Second-Half

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 9 Jul 2024 18:34:29 +0000

Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson try to find 2024 comps to the 2023 First Half / Second Half heroes and bums. Who is this year's Julio Rodriguez Who will be the young slugger that figures it out, like Tristan Casas was last season?

---

00:00 - First Half / Second Half Podcast

01:30 - Who is this year’s Tristan Casas? A young slugger who has a blah first half and then breaks out in second half.

02:10 - Micheal Busch. He was always powerful in the Minors (59 HR in 2022-23). Outside of May, has hit for average (albeit with a high BABIP). The power will play eventually. With the Cubs out of the race (kind of), he will play.

05:45 - Who will be this year’s Julio Rodriguez? An underwhelming star who gets on track in the second half.

08:20 - Alternate - Pete Alonso. His HR/FB% is a career low. Average exit velocity if down, but only slightly. Warm weather, Mets hanging around in the race….I’ll say that he hits more than 20 HR after the ASB.

14:45 - Who will be this year’s Cal Raleigh? A catcher who becomes a game-changer by hitting for elite power in the second half.

Mitch Garver. Has quietly his 6 homers since June 6. May not hit for average, but he producing plenty of fly balls. K rate and BB rate each improved a bit in June too.

19:15 - Who will be this year’s CJ Abrams? A player who catches fire on the basepaths in the second half.

19:50 - Wyatt Langford. Ranks 11th in baseball in average sprint speed. Stole six bases in June. Rangers fall out of the race and let Langford learn to steal bases in the second half by running as much as he wants.

23:45 - Who will be this year’s Alex Verdugo or Nolan Arenado? A veteran who falls apart in the second half.

25:45 - Cody Bellinger. I know his first half wasn’t great, but Statcast suggests it should have been even worse. Cubs fall out of the race and he’s unplayable in the second half.

33:40 - Who will be this year’s Freddy Peralta? A skilled starter who underachieves in the first half and thrives in the second half.

34:15 - Pablo Lopez. Similar to Peralta, he pitches for a solid team and has great SO skills. Just needs some decent luck.

40:15 - Who will be this year’s Lucas Giolito? A starter who is playable in the first half and destroys teams in the second half.

41:05 - Jose Berrios. This may be cheating, because it has already happened, but I’m not sure anyone has noticed. His season-long numbers (3.63 ERA, 1.12 WHIP) still say, “start me every week”. The Jays season is already over, and things will be ugly for starters like Berrios when they go with a full youth movement down the stretch.

44:40 - Andrew Abbott

46:45 - Who will be this year’s Adbert Alzolay? A reliever who takes hold of the closer’s role in the second half.

47:20 - Jeff Hoffman. Holy moly, this guy has been good this year. The Phillies went a long stretch without a save, and since that ended he has collected 3 of their 4 saves. He’s their best reliever and could completely take the job from Jose Alvarado. Of course, they could trade for a closer. But they don’t need to.

49:30 - Monday game recaps: Is Paul Sewald close to losing the closer’s role?

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 11 Jun 2024 22:07:40 +0000

Fred Zinkie look at the top draft bargains from the bottom 10 rounds in 15-team leagues and look to see if the players are sustainable and if there are some trends that we can learn from.

00:30 - JT Realmuto out

09:20 - Francisco Alvarez back

13:30 - Edwin Diaz returning Thursday

18:00 - Here are the best picks, by round. Using the Rotowire AAV calculator. I thought that we could work from the bottom to the top, looking at these names from a few angles…..what did we miss?......is this sustainable?.....are there common themes in the names in general?

(the specific dollar values are from Sunday, when I had time to create the chart. I’m sure they’ve only moved a dollar since then)

18:45 - Ryan O’Hearn / Cole Irvin (Rd. 30)

21:00 - Luis Garcia (hitter version) / Ronel Blanco (29)

24:30 - Michael Conforto / Brady Singer (28)

Did We Draft Starting Pitching Too Early?

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 4 Jun 2024 23:31:07 +0000

Jeff Erickson and Fred Zinkie look at data from 2024 and identify bankable trends. Where are our category leaders coming from? Did we draft starting pitching too soon?

---

00:00 - Fred Pod 6-4

00:30 - Overall data from 2024 (as of the start of play this week)

01:30 - 4 of the top-20 pitchers in ERA were drafted in the top-100

07:00 - 12 of the 19 pitches with 75 SO were drafted in the top-100

09:00 - 6 top the top-15 pitchers in WHIP were drafted in the top-100

11:30 - There are so many starters who have are sitting on waivers in most leagues and have an ERA around 3.50 and a WHIP around 1.15 (Ryan Weathers, Jake Irvin, Trevor Williams, Kyle Gibson etc.). Bailey Falter was available on Sunday in most of my 15-team leagues. He has a WHIP under 1.00!

13:30 - Are big bids on pitchers like Christian Scott ill-considered?

16:45 - Trevor Williams on IL

21:00 - 10 of the top-13 hitters in homers were drafted in the top-100; 5 of the 11 hitters who are batting .300 were drafted in the top-100; 10 of the 12 hitters with 40 runs scored were drafted in the top-100; 9 of the 15 players with 40 RBIs were drafted in the top-100

28:00 - Were we drafting pitchers too early in this “everyone can pitch” landscape?

31:45 - One more observation, of the 22 qualified pitchers with an ERA under 3.00, 15 have fewer strikeouts than innings. In this season of low BABIP and low HR/FB rate, is getting whiffs less important in run prevention?

39:00 - Should owners in trading leagues try to correct this by dealing effective pitchers for effective hitters?

47:00 - Finally, am I correct in believing that the pitcher injury crises was overblown (once again) in April?

55:00 - Monday notes: Kyle Tucker is day-to-day but should be fine…..Blake Snell is on the IL again…..Noelvi Marte will soon start his rehab assignment…..Brandon Marsh to the IL…..Robert Gasser is dealing with an elbow injury…..Connor Norby debuted…..Tyler Anderson continues to defy the odds….Matt Waldron pitched well again…..The Reds scored 13 at Coors…..Nolan Gorman has hit 8 HR in 14 games…..Mark Vientos had another great game…..MacKenzie Gore burned owners in his two-start week…..Kevin Gausman continues to stink…..Austin Hays hit his first two homers of the season….

How to Sell High

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 28 May 2024 23:15:35 +0000

Fred Zinkie has a well-earned reputation as a master trader in fantasy baseball leagues. He shares some of his favorite tips on how to "sell high," and who might be some of the players that you should be peddling, including Elly De La Cruz.

11:30 - Sending offers out!

13:00 - Offer options

19:00 - Selling High Easier / Elly De La Cruz

21:00 - Dodgers Slumping

24:00 - Some May facts

24:45 - 1. The Royals have been the second-best offense by OPS. Is this sustainable? Should we avoid using SPs against them?

31:30 - 2. The A’s, Angels and Giants have all been top-8 in OPS. The Dodgers are behind all of them. And even though Blue Jays fans want to trade all the hitters, they are above average in May OPS.

39:00 - 3. Short baseball games in Chicago right now, as the Cubs and White Sox are the bottom-2 teams in May OPS.

46:00 - 4. Only one team has been bottom-5 in OPS and ERA in May. I bet you wouldn’t guess that it’s Arizona.

53:00 - 5. The Mariners have a bottom-5 ERA. How is that possible with their starters?

Another Big FAAB Week Coming

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Tue, 7 May 2024 23:33:51 +0000

Last week featured heavy bidding on Christian Scott, and justifiably so, but Fred Zinkie suggests that this week will be nearly as big, highlighted by Kyle Manzardo. He and Jeff Erickson will discuss that, Shohei Ohtani somehow outpacing his high expectations and more!

---

00:00 - Dodgers Notes:

01:00 - Ohtani homered. You were there. I saw some people talking on Twitter about why we seem to draft him too low every year. It’s a good point……

07:20 - Walker Buehler’s return was underwhelming but not terrible….

10:45 - Alex Vesia gets a save. Does that matter?…..

14:25 - Reviewing debut of Kyle Manzardo

20:45 - Mason Black debuts

22:00 - I listened to you and Scott. It was definitely a big FAAB weekend. But we already know that next weekend will be big too.

24:30 - I can share some of my bids if you want.

26:45 - Christopher Sanchez / Spencer Turnbull

29:00 - Paul Sewald returns

30:15 - Cody Bellinger returns

32:30 - Justin Steele looked good in his return…..

34:00 - Simeon Woods-Richardson looks great but has had easy matchups…..

37:30 - Jack Leiter starting again this week

39:30 - Jonny DeLuca

41:30 - Wyatt Langford to IL.

45:30 - Parker Meadows is going to the Minors, which should help Wenceel Perez…

48:00 - A.J. Puk is coming back as a reliever. I wonder if he could become their closer

51:00 - Who else besides the Marlins get “Godfather Offers”? White Sox - Garrett Crochet

53:45 - Godfather Offer: Paste-eating Rockies - Ryan McMahon or nothing

59:30 - Godfather Offer: Los Angeles Angels - Taylor Ward, Reid Detmers

Jackson Holliday Gets the Call

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 10 Apr 2024 04:59:51 +0000

Jackson Holliday is getting the call, David Bednar blew another save, and the Royals keep winning! Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson cover it all and more!

---

00:30 - Jackson Holliday promoted! Let’s start a pod with some pod-sitivity!!!

12:30 - Here we go again: Framber Valdez to the IL. A few thoughts on all these pitcher injuries…..

16:00 - Spencer Arrighetti to start for Astros. Is he ready to help fantasy teams?…

20:40 - Fred’s free agent additions

23:30 - Apparently Elly De La Cruz is good after all….

26:00 - In fantasy football, we see Zero RB. Could we see Zero SP in NFBC leagues next year, where managers draft 5-6 stud hitters and a couple closers before diving in and selecting 8-9 starters in the next 10-12 rounds? I know it’s too early to say that definitively, but we have some mid/late-round starters such as Tanner Houck, Sean Manaea, Shoto Imanaga, Garrett Whitlock etc. who are off to excellent starts.

33:30 - Chris Bassitt threw 115 pitches on April 9, but he will be fine since he throw 80 mph….

36:30 - Royals start

46:00 - Worried about David Bednar after he gave up 4 runs today?

48:30 - George Kirby with another poor start…

52:00 - Ronald Acuna stole three bases, so he’s probably still good…..

54:00 - Reynaldo López

58:00 - Tyler O’Neill

With the greater-than-usual attrition that we've had this spring, Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson have had to reach into a different pool of starters to fill their rosters, and will go over those players. Plus, we discuss the latest on Shohei Ohtani, Kevin Gausman, Paul Sewald and the Cardinals outfield.

---

00:00 - Shohei Ohtani. Doesn’t really matter if we believe him. Will there be a fallout that will impact his playing status?

08:15 - Kevin Gausman looked great on Monday. Back to being a 2nd round pick?

13:00 - Dylan Carlson is hurt and the Cards are running out of OFs. Lars Nootbaar took soft toss and is making progress. Victor Scott!

18:00 - Garrett Mitchell to IL. Joey Ortiz to 3B? Drop Mitchell?

21:00 - DLJM to IL. Is he worth waiting for?

25:30 - Paul Sewald to the IL. Kevin Ginkel time?

32:30 - Bryan Woo to IL. I don’t think that Emerson Hancock is a must-add, but he’s interesting.

36:15 - Justin Verlander to throw 2 innings of BP on Tuesday.

39:00 - All the new SPs. Because all the ones who were going in Rd. 24-30 in early March are now either being drafted earlier or are injured

41:15 - Max Meyer

45:00 - Ryan Weathers

48:45 - Jordan Hicks

50:50 - Casey Mize

52:20 - Jared Jones

54:30 - Ryne Nelson

58:15 - Bowden Francis

1:01:30 - Garrett Crochet, Tylor Megill, Luis Gil, Tyler Alexander.

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 6 Mar 2024 07:48:00 +0000

It's fantasy baseball auction season, and Fred Zinkie has the keys for you to dominate your league. Fred and Jeff Erickson will discuss auction strategy tips and the biggest news of the day, including the latest Ronald Acuña update.

---

00:00 - Lucas Giolito’s season appears to be over before it started.

05:00 - Ronald Acuna seems to be fine.

07:30 - Sonny Gray could open the season on the IL. Maybe Kevin Gausman too. And Braxton Garrett.

12:30 - Paul Skenes will open the season in the Minors. Draftable?

15:40 - Jordan Montgomery and Blake Snell

20:00 - Ken Rosenthal wrote that Jackson Holliday has a 50% chance of making the OD roster. Is that enough to draft him in the middle rounds?

23:30 - A.J. Puk is becoming a spring training story. He was drafted in my tout league tonight.

29:00 - Auctions

29:15 - Are auctions better than drafts? Why or why not?

31:45 - What do you do to prepare for your auction?

35:45 - Pen & Paper vs. Software

40:00 - Do you have any strategy for nominations?

46:40 - Are you flexible on changing prices during the auction? Do the bids on other players matter?

53:00 - Are you more of a stars-and-scrubs or spread-the-risk guy?

58:30 - Are there ever players who you “have to” win in the auction?

1:03:00 - What is your plan for dollar days?

1:11:00 - Size of league dictating strategy?

1:15:00 - Would you stash prospects?

Jeff Erickson and Chris Liss tell the story of how their wide reaching popular daily radio show began. The duo recalls war stories of getting fired, told they were boring by over-reaching program directors, and how they fought back to become one of the signature fantasy sports shows in the world.

Special appearances by Hall of Fame Fantasy Sportswriter, Scott Pianowski, Dalton Del Don (Yahoo Fantasy Sports), and Greg Ambrosius (Sports HubTech/ NFFC). All are regular guests on the RWFST program.

Forks in the Road w/ Rob Silver

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Thu, 3 Feb 2022 19:32:35 +0000

Shortstop, Closer or Catcher of your choice in the middle of the third round (you’ve started with a hitter and an ace in rounds 1-2)
Does Rob hate Wander Franco? Will he draft Jazz Chisholm?
You don’t have a closer yet. It’s the middle of the fifth round and Chapman and the other top guys are gone. Are you taking everyone’s favorite anointed ace, Dylan Cease, or are you taking Kenley/Will Smith/Romano?
It’s late in the sixth round. You’ve got one starter and one closer and you loaded up on speed with your first three hitters. What player type are you eying up here?
We’re at pick 95, early in the 7th round and you’re light on speed. Edman, Polanco, India and Varsho are all gone. You can take Yelich, Straw or the best player available on your board who doesn’t help with steals…

Jordan Rosenblum (@RosenJordanBlum) discusses why he's so high on Spencer Torkelson, his much-discussed pairing of four old aces, how he utilizes projection systems, and staying on brand with Alejandro Kirk
Michael Richards (@MPRichards1981) discusses how his dynasty approach has changed, overcoming past biases with Cedric Mullins, buying low on Andrew Vaughn and Corbin Carroll's path to being the No. 1 prospect
Nate Handy (@pitchingspecs) discusses why Luis Robert was an easy call with the eighth pick, going against the grain with his pitching strategy and gives an interesting comp for Alex Kirilloff

Witt, Rutschman, Shallow Dynasty League Adds & More

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 9 Jun 2021 20:05:30 +0000

Bobby Witt hitting .311/.377/.803 with nine HR, two steals and a 29 K% over his last 15 games at Double-A

Adley Rutschman hitting .378/.478/.757 with four HR and more walks (8) than strikeouts (7) over his last 10 games at Double-A

Will be interesting to see which of them gets promoted to Triple-A first, as Rutschman is three years older and more ready, but the O’s might really manipulate his service time.

Nick Pratto has a 42% Hard Hit rate at Double-A. How high should he be ranked?

Cade Cavalli is a closing in on being a top-five pitching prospect

George Valera comes off the IL with a bang

Oswald Peraza joins CJ Abrams and Riley Greene as age-20 hitters at Double-A

Pedro Leon heating up, hitting .288/.382/.545 with 4 HR and 2 SB over his last 18 games

Jhonkensy Noel, Alec Burlesson, Anthony Volpe the top adds in shallow dynasty leagues

Bailey Falter is a priority add in deeper dynasty leagues

Kaden Polcovich is a Sports Info Solutions darling 53.3% Hard Hit rate at High-A

Post-hype sleeper: Joe Gray

Logan Gilbert on Kelenic's Heels?

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 12 May 2021 20:33:27 +0000

Jarred Kelenic

Logan Gilbert being “seriously considered” for Friday’s start, per the Seattle Times.

Confirmation bias:

Corbin Carroll - Headed for the top 10

Nick Gonzales - Bat looks explosive

Angel Martinez - Grab him in all dynasty formats

Chris Gittens - The Most Terrifying Hitter at Triple-A

It looks like I was too low:

Vidal Brujan - 100% HR/FB rate

Jesus Sanchez - Stash candidate

Estevan Florial - Is it *finally* clicking?

Shane McClanahan gets call for Rays

dj@rotowire.com (RotoWire.com) — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 20:48:36 +0000

Should we have bid more on Pavin Smith in MAIN? Does it matter, since we got Kyle Higashioka?

Smith has been leading off for over a week, looks pretty good

Alex Kirilloff batting fifth against righties, ninth against his first lefty Wednesday — has started six straight.

Clay’s boy, Shane McClanahan starting Thursday against the A’s.

The buzz surrounding Pedro Leon is mounting...

How much longer can Cleveland wait on Bobby Bradley, and to a lesser extent, Daniel Johnson?

Arizona somehow has by far the best wRC+ (155) in the majors against LHP, so this is another big test for Ryan Weathers.

Jazz Chisholm to the IL, probably would have graduated with two more games.

Cale Loken wants to know what our prediction is for Jazz in startup dynasty drafts next offseason

Joel Steen wants a breakdown of Marco Luciano, whom he just acquired in a trade

Dan Corrado: Any catcher targets/strategies in dynasty? What are we doing with Plesac — when’s the next dynasty update?

Michael Patrick: Is it time for a rebuilder to give up on Willy Adames, Clint Frazier, or Nick Senzel and give the roster spots to players with more upside? J.Mac also wanted to know what to do with Senzel…

The Ulysses Sect: Lux/Jazz/Solak ROS and long term?

Patrick: Could we see Tristan Casas in Boston this year?

Toolsy: Baddoo or Jarren Duran ROS?

Jason Jablonski - Sell on Rogers/Antone?

Jazz Chisholm update — 193 wRC+, 16.1 BB%, 26.8 K%

Alex Kirilloff was not an option to replace Kepler with Twins in Oakland — could get the call Friday.

Ryan Weathers sticking in rotation for now.

TONY LA RUSSA says there will be some tough decisions to make when Billy Hamilton finishes his rehab — could Vaughn get sent down? Vaughn has a .393 OBP and three doubles in his last eight games.

James dropped Clarke Schmidt in TDGX.

Pavin Smith, Josh Fleming and Adolis Garcia were nice low-key adds in 15-teamers.

George Kirby hype train ramping up.
