Summary
Happy 4th of July weekend! It's been awhile since Adam's been on the pod so let him rock the mic the first few minutes. We banter about some recent mock drafts we've done but Adam has some questions: Carlos Correa or Adam Judge? And Kyle Tucker or Justin Turner? Onto the 60-man player pools for this season (6:42). What is there to know? How will service time work for rookies? Which prospects should we expect (11:17)? Why didn't Ryan Mountcastle make it yet? Also, Nick Madrigal is a sneaky sleeper. Should you handcuff relievers in deeper Roto leagues (17:14)? It could pay-off instead of wasting all that FAAB. We hit the latest news and notes (19:37) and there's a lot. Four Phillies have been placed on the COVID-19 Injured List. What does this mean for Scott Kingery and Hector Neris? Jordan Hicks will start the year on the IL so it seems like Giovanny Gallegos will be the guy. Last but not least, more Yankees updates! ... We're on baby watch (31:29). Why might happen when a player goes on paternity leave this season? Mike Trout, Gerrit Cole, Zack Wheeler, and Bryan Reynolds are all expecting in the next 2-3 months. ... Finally, we get to your Apple Podcast questions (36:22) plus your emails at fantasybaseball@cbsi.com.

| 1:09.0 | roster stuff that you need to know from the 60 man rosters. We got a lot of news and notes. |

| 1:18.2 | it's been a while. How you doing, buddy? It's been a while. It hasn't been a while. I have so much |
| 1:25.1 | to say. I have so much to say. I'm just going to riff. Okay, here we go. Ready? Did a fantasy football |
| 1:32.4 | podcast? Did the top five patriotic movies? Sandlot checked in at number four for me. Okay, that's |
| 1:38.4 | number one. Number two, did it head to head points mock draft with you guys on June 26th. I believe |
| 1:46.2 | I think it was the best draft I've ever had. Unfortunately, it's only a mock, but oh my god, |
| 1:51.4 | please somebody find a way to publish my team. It is an unbelievable team. Everybody should |
| 1:56.6 | have a team like mine in a headhead point sleep like that. Number three, did a road on mock draft |
| 2:01.7 | with you guys just before we're doing this podcast. I have some interesting take it was a 15 team |
| 2:06.2 | road on mock draft, but here are two sort of rankings things for you. It came up in the point |
| 2:11.4 | sleep. I think Carlos Kare is the single best value in drafts. I took Aaron judge like 90 second |
| 2:18.4 | overall or something in that point sleep draft last week, which felt like really good value. |
