Summary
Segment 1 and 2 – Review games of the week
Additional Questions:
1.With the Cubs and Astros pitching staffs decimated with injuries, why is Lucas Giolito still not signed?
1)Is it time for fantasy managers to put him on their rosters?
2.Ben Rice was the one guy I told our Patreon members not to leave the draft without. It’s proving prescient, and now the Yankees are using him more against lefties. Over/Under 35 home runs.
3.Speaking of the Yankees, Will Warren has looked very good so far this season. 2 wins, 11 K/9, 2.49 ERA, 3.68 xERA
4.The Phillies put Jhoan Duran on the IL with an oblique strain. Who gets the save opportunities in Philadelphia?
5.Gerrit Cole and Zach Wheeler have both had rehab games this week and they were “Ehh”. Who do you want the rest of the season?
6.If you take away Yamamoto, the rest of the best Japanese pitchers who have migrated to MLB haven’t been very good. What’s your take on each?
1)Kodai Senga (NYM, 2023) – 8.83 ERA
2)Roki Sasaki (LAD, 2025) – 6.23 ERA
3)Tatsuya Imai (Hou, 2026) – 7.27 ERA
