Welcome to the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast. As you listen, Jose Altuve is hitting another home run.

We'll talk about some of the live scores going on from tonight and maybe have some September strategies here on the Rot Roto Wire Fantasy baseball podcast. Jeff Erickson here with fabulous Fred Zinky. We are going to be talking to all the things going on in baseball world here.

I'm kind of catching up in some ways in form, but it's been a busy time for me.

But Fred's on top of everything, including, I think, are you still winning labor?

No. I have fallen to third in labor.

I'd say I still have a chance, but not a great chance. And in Towers, I came into today, tied for first. Okay. Okay. So you're still having a good year. I think my better chance to win than labor this year. Okay, very good. Jose Al-Tube, let's lead with him. He is just on a heater of all heaters right now, a power heater at that.

Homer at a couple, or is it three even?

Three already.

Three already.

And that, you know, he missed, he's making up for a lost time.

He puts them up to 15, twice off Nathan Nealvaldi, and then once off of Dane Dunning.

And the Astros, I mean, they're not even guaranteed a playoff spot.

That's the crazy thing.

But they have such an elite lineup.

And yet they still could miss the playoffs, given how tough the AAL is to make the playoffs right now.

Yeah, I mentioned that I noticed that last night their lineup had,

probably it does again tonight, six players with an OPS over 800.

And then some of their complementary pieces after that aren't terrible either.

So, yeah, this just looks like a team that needs to be in the postseason. I think they find there, I think everybody believes that, that no matter who crumbles

out of Houston, Texas, Seattle, and Toronto, it won't be Houston.

There's just too much depth in that lineup.

I think their pitching would have to just completely fall apart.
