Did you know Fred Zinke makes mistakes?

It's true.

And not just adjusting for height on the doorknob.

Many more on the fantasy side of things as well.

We'll talk about that and my mistakes as well on the Rotowire fantasy baseball podcast. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Roto Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast, Jeff Herrickson here with Fred Zinky, live from Wichita, Kansas here.

I just got back from the Texas Leagueinky live from Wichita, Kansas here. I just got back from the

Texas League playoffs where the Wichita Win-Sourge lost and the Frisco Rough Riders are now the champions

in 10-innings. So good stuff there. Fred, how's it going? I'm good. Yeah, how was the minor

league baseball tonight? Fun to watch? Oh, it's super fun.

I love minor league baseball to begin with, and this experience was really cool. I've never been to a minor league baseball game. Really? Yeah, well. Why would you if you're in Toronto? Yeah, exactly. There's just not a lot of minor. There used to be one in Ottawa, about three or four hours from here. I never went to a game. It hasn't been there for many years now.

So, yeah, never been to a minor league.

Been lots of minor hockey league games, things like that, but not for a minor league baseball game. Well, I had a new experience. I was actually there when a team clinched a championship. Okay. And went nuts on the field. It was the visiting team, no less, but it was still really cool. I've seen it, you know, it's been a part of, you know, in our little leagues and things like that. Seeing like a professional championship celebrated on the field from like the second row, really pretty cool. We were sitting right next to the visitors dug out. Good stuff. That's awesome. Yeah. Yeah, at any level of baseball, that would be fun. Yeah, and Wichita's got a gem of a ballpark. Riverfront Stadium, it's two words. Not to be confused with Cincinnati's Riverfront Stadium, you could never confuse it to. It's a gem. It's a pretty little ballpark there. It's like three or four years old really good stuff really enjoyed that um so yeah it was it was a good way to spend a tuesday night that's for sure yeah yeah yeah sounds good i'll have to get it to a minorly baseball game someday in retirement that'll be a bucket list retirement thing yeah there's a lot of that going on right now i'm trying to think about that i'm only'm only a couple of years away from the kids going to college. I wouldn't wait until a retirement. I think that's maybe like a kids are in college sort of thing, maybe. Maybe that's synonymous for you. I don't know. But we'll see.

But all right, let's talk about our top mistakes this year because we all make them. We have our good leagues and our bad leagues. Sometimes it's a – you don't want to get too tied up into the actual results of a team but that's a

usually pretty pretty good proxy yeah yeah absolutely uh and figuring out yeah our top

mistakes i don't know you can make a lot of mistakes and still win your league right um

but so much of it yeah sometimes just make too many some of them are not recoverable or hard to

recover from i i think i still think yeah figuring out where you went wrong at the end around this

time of the year is probably the most valuable thing you can do because uh you know truthfully if

if all your picks could just hold serve and not they don't have to be great if all your picks

held serve you'd have a really really good team it's that's really hard to pull off so but that's the goal

I think I mean having some some Julio Rodriguez on your team is is amazing but just if all your if all your

picks honestly if all your picks just meet expectations or come close to expectations,
