We are live on the Roto Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast brought to you by Underdog Fantasy and Fan Tracks.

I'm Drew Silva.

With me here is Ryan Boyer.

It is the afternoon of Saturday, March 11th.

We'll continue our category preview series on this episode with home runs.

In some of our other category preview shows, I almost find myself apologizing for the stat

that we're discussing, like pitcher wins, antiquated, hard to project, runs scored, those

can tend to be very situation and teammate dependent.

ERA, there are a couple better ways to evaluate individual talent for a pitcher than ERA.

But yeah, now we get to do home runs, which is unquestionably the best result of any at-bat for a hit hitter if that even needed to be said.

Ryan, home runs, good or bad, discuss.

Very good.

The old hard hitting analysis.

Yeah.

I mean, we were the last category, you and I did together, was wins, which as you mentioned,

that's, you know, i understand why we do it

in fantasy but not a great way to measure one's one's success but dingers man everybody loves

dingers chicks dig the long ball right that old commercial is still still relevant today yeah uh before we

jump in on that let's uh run through a couple of mid-spring headlines.

The World Baseball Classic is underway in some pools.

Team USA getting started here on Saturday night.

What time is that game, do you know?
