We're going to be talking about that.

We're talking about Fab.

We're talking about the man, Tyler Soderstrom, all coming up next in the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast. Happy Sunday night, everybody.

Welcome to the Rotterwire Fantasy Baseball podcast.

I'm Scott Jenssted as always joined on Sunday by Jeff Erickson.

If you could please rate or review the podcast, that would help us out a long ways.

Jeff, there's a whole ton to talk about. How's you how's everything for you oh you know team wise is not great but life wise pretty darn good so i can't complain nice today yeah there you go we got we got we got we got a half week of baseball this week is always hard in in the fantasy world because you've got you know these like these like three or four days, that's all we have. And it seems like everything's so big and important. But you draft, you spent months prepping for your drafts and drafting these guys. The last thing you want to do is drop somebody after three or four days. But on the same notion, like there are important pickups that happen this week. Whenever we look back, There's always, you know, guys that, you know, emerged the first weekend, all of a sudden had good years.

There's that we talk talk about, many years ago, Eric Hyperlig, who used to play, won the online championship. He picked up Francisco Rodriguez and Charlie Blackman the first week of Fab. And like won his, he won the overall, but, you know, big time based on those guys, man, those guys, adding to his team helped out a lot. So there are important ads to make, but you got to be, you got to be careful with who you drop as well. Yeah, absolutely. But I also think, and I, I'm starting to really subscribe to the theory that you can't be afraid to make a mistake. Yep. You know, mistakes happen. You can sometimes correct your own mistakes too. I will talk about this,

but I feel like I need to revisit how I'm doing FAB, especially in the main.

I think we, I think we need to be more aggressive. I feel like I'm missing out on the big, you know,

you know, I need to be more aggressive on needed free agents agents although the funny thing is sometimes the track record of the elite free agents

aren't great it's true but I'll just give the example we're going to talk about

Ben Brown later and I think that that was a really important ad and we didn't get him

and I feel bad about that one there I wanted I wanted to get him. I think he's more than

just a two-steper this week. I think he's someone that could have some really good enduring value. And I feel like we're not being aggressive on that. I know. I think it's our friend Scott Pinawis goes, you know, if you don't look back at your drops and think you made a mistake at one point, that means you probably weren't aggressive enough.

It's like poker.

If you don't get caught bluffing every once in a while,

that means you're not bluffing enough.

We will get to a lot of fab talk here in the second half, but I want to talk about a little bit about week one and preview week two a little bit. First up, Jeff, the Yankees offense is warm right now. A little bit of a lot of talk about the at torpedo bats, but Aaron Judge using a regular bat, four home runs already, almost had four home runs yesterday.
