| 0:00.0 | The trade deadline has passed. |
| 0:04.0 | Teams still might, we might see some late announcements, but for the most part, all these trades are done. |
| 0:10.1 | So Fred, uh, Fred Zinke and I are going to break down everything going up coming up next on the Rotowire Fantasy baseball podcast, the trade deadline extravaganza. |
| 0:39.5 | Pardon the awkward pause there. I had the baseball overlay for a second instead of the baseball one. |
| 0:44.7 | I was like, where's the baseball open? So good stuff there. This is brought to you by Draft King's Pick Six app in their game. |
| 0:53.1 | So make sure that you go check that out. |
| 0:55.5 | The Draft Kings Pick Six app. Fred, we're going to go right to it here. There are 30 teams. We're going to go through all 30 teams and try to discuss what they did at the deadline. We're going to do it alphabetically according to RotoWire's depth chart page. So let's start off with the Arizona Diamondbacks. And, you know, Christian Walker's oblique injury last night kind of shaped a little bit of what they were doing. |
| 1:14.9 | They forced them, forced their hand to go get Josh Bell. |
| 1:17.9 | They went out. |
| 1:18.5 | They also got a relief pitcher and AJ Puck to start basically all this madness at the trade deadline. |
| 1:23.9 | There's so many moves. |
| 1:25.4 | This is one of the earlier ones. |
| 1:27.3 | Though I am surprised, though, they didn't add another starting pitcher. |
| 1:31.3 | Yeah, they really, really could have used the starting pitcher. |
| 1:35.1 | Yeah, I don't actually, you know what? |
| 1:37.1 | I think they were, I think going to the Saints action, they're second in the majors and |
| 1:40.3 | runs scored, which I think would win you some bar bets. |
| 1:42.9 | I don't think people realize that they've been that good offensively this year. For Josh Bell, for fantasy, I think this |
| 1:50.9 | makes him more valuable for August and probably less valuable than he would, like, in September. |
| 1:55.6 | But at least he has some value. So, like on the Marlins, he had fallen to waivers in some of my |
| 2:00.2 | leagues. So, yeah, like, he's got more value now. Like, if he hits, he moved from the second worst lineup to the second best. I don't know if you called him the second best, but the second highest scoring. He isn't having a great season, but he isn't having an abysmal season either. He's got 14 home runs. to 239. If he just replaces Walker and hits cleanup for the Diamondbacks, he could be pretty valuable |
| 2:22.7 | and an oblique injury, right? Like we're probably looking at a month. |
