Welcome back to the fantasy baseball today podcast. It's Tuesday. We got nine games to recaps from Monday

0:19.8

and of course we'll look at today's action. You've been missing Scott White. I've been missing Scott White. He's back everybody.

0:26.5

Alright here. Yeah. Back. Now Rick. That's mildly exciting. Well tomorrow. Guess who's coming on the show? Who?

0:38.5

Al Melcure. No way. That's old news. Al Melcure has been on this show already this season. Yeah, but I was out of the country. It was all a star break week.

0:48.0

He didn't really count. This is a real Al Melcure spot. It is exciting, but I guess it's not real if Adam's not on the show.

0:55.3

That's right. That's what he's trying to say. Scott, where were you? Where the hell were you? Where was I? I was at home with the kid.

1:05.3

Little little staycation, little filling in for the nanny who needed some time off. So it was it was good. Now I should be here for every podcast until the next time my

1:17.3

visit podcast will mean that new life is in the world. The day is getting close. Which child number two is on the way.

1:23.3

And I should be here every day and tell them. So all right. Yeah, you used to it. Good. We are hoping for right around October 1st.

1:30.3

Would be wonderful. We could just get to the regular season and then come on. Hold on, baby. Just hold on.

1:36.3

You know, last week Scott gave some great advice. And he said, start Reese Hoskins and people said, Scott, I love you. You're the best. Don't don't go on staycation.

1:48.3

Yeah. I got a little bit of that last night because I told everybody to start Curtis Granderson. I felt I felt good about it. And he hit a grand slam.

1:57.3

And I would say he only needs one more good game this week with six more varieties on tap. Yeah, I took over for Scott writing the hit on your planner column on Friday last week.

2:09.3

And I said to start jock Peterson. Yeah, I saw that's why I started. Graders said though, but same theory.

2:16.3

This granderson just replaced him. That's all it was. Yeah, it was great. It's always you know, if you would follow through the logic of that.

2:25.3

Oh, well, Jack Peterson isn't the center fielder for the Dodgers. Curtis Granderson is perfect. It's really on you.

2:31.3

You're well. What it comes down to. I can't hold your hand through everything guys. You have a makes a feel any better.

2:38.3

You know, when I when I had Reese Hoskins among my top 10 sleeper hitters the Friday before and it paid off so well.

2:47.3

I had Matt Adams either a little before him or a little after him because of a four game series coming up the Colorado.

2:53.3

Brace decided they didn't want to play left fields in that big outfield. So he didn't start any of those. You know, it really makes me feel better.

3:00.3

What is I know I get things wrong constantly and that probably isn't the dumbest thing I'll say all week.

3:06.3

Yeah, well, no, I was going to say so well, first of all with granderson. That's not what I was about. I was going to say something about myself.
