A lot of baseball to talk about, a lot of fab pickups to talk about, and I've barely started breathing again from the Warriors game.

0:06.8

But we'll hit it all.

0:08.1

I'll come up back in the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast.

0:25.2

Happy Sunday night, everybody.

I am Scott Jansett.

0:36.4

Join, as always on Sunday nights by Jeff Erickson here to talk a lot of baseball.

0:37.8

Jeff, how are you this Sunday evening, April 23rd? I'm good. Busy weekend. They're always busy weekends and I'd have it no other way. But, you know, a busier fab pier than I thought it would be. I thought it'd be pretty quiet. We were talking about that right before starting. Yeah. That a little bit more active and a little bit more activity than I expected. I was a little bit more like

0:38.9

contested bids than I thought I'd

0:40.6

have. a little bit more active and a little bit more, uh, activity than I expected. I was,

0:55.2

and a little bit more like contested bids than I thought I'd have. Me too. It was a little more spendy than I thought. I don't know if spendie is a word, but I thought, uh, I kind of thought I would slide some guys through and there were a lot of people that were on the similar to the same guys. I lost some really close bid, which is always frustrating. I've won some close bid later, but you lose by one or two bucks.

1:11.7

It's kind of frustrating. But we'll talk all about that. Jeff, we have some big news in baseball this week. It seems like my A's are potentially moving to Las Vegas. There's been rumored for a while, but it sounds like they are, they're kind of turn their backs in Oakland and moving, moving on. Isn. Isn't it kind of, it's not just, it's all but official, right? I mean, at least they, they're committed to building the stadium and you're not going to build a stadium without a team. So committed to being committed, I think maybe a better way to put it. I mean, they still have to get a lot of money passed in public funding. But I'm kind of disgusted by the whole thing.

1:45.3

I'm not going to rant on it too much because I know if you want to talk about fantasy. But like I just the way this ownership treated the fans have been the fans of the franchise forever. Like I get it. Teams move and nobody understands it. I'm old. I get it. Baseball is a business. Stuff happens. You got to make money. the city of Oakland is not without fault.

1:42.4

The A's fans are not without fault.

1:43.9

But this is like the way they treated people last. Baseball is a business. Stuff happens. You got to make money. The city of Oakland is not without fault.

2:01.4

The A's fans are not without fault.

2:02.9

But the way they treated people last 18 months just kind of just grosses me out. The president, the owner, like they intentionally tried to lose these last 18 months. I kind of joked about it beginning last year. I'm like, I think this is a major league. I think you're trying to lose. but they actually were trying to lose.

1:57.8

They're trying to make a point that Oakland, you know,

1:59.5

can't support a team.

2:01.0

And what kind of goes is like this stuff matters.

2:03.1

I get that it's not, you know, life. but they actually were trying to lose. They're trying to make a point that Oakland can't support a team.
