Last week, we reviewed overachieving hitting lineups.

This week, we're going to review overachieving pitching staffs here on the Rot Roto Wire fantasy baseball podcast. Jeff Erickson here with Fred Zinky.

And last week, we teased this. We talked about overachieving hitting, hitting lineups this week.

We're going to talk about overachieving pitching staffs and maybe fade these ones a little bit there.

Fred, welcome. Before we do that, though, a couple news items.

Starting out, Bryce Harper got plunked by a Spencer Strider fastball right on the right elbow left the game immediately.

I know x-rays are negative.

X-rays aren't everything.

What have you seen from Strider?

I mean, from, excuse me, from Harper.

We can talk strider too while we're at it.

But what did you think about, you know, the Harper injury?

Any, any hot takes from that?

No, not really.

I mean, I guess x-rays are negative, so we'll hope that it just turns out to be a bruise.

It's poor timing for Harper owners because Harper's been fine this year, but not great,

but he's been really good lately.

So when it's 10 games, past 10 games leading in tonight, he had hit 390 with a 996 OPS so it was really just heating up um i think you and

Scott talked about him a little bit on and when you're talking about philly's lineup on sunday night

like this year overall pretty mad like the eight steals are a big help but eight homers yeah not great

and 267 batting average so he could be a lot better than that and like I said he was

heating up so hopefully this elbow injury it like I said is just a bruise and he's back pretty soon
