Summary
Eno and DVR discuss the promotion of Wander Franco, expectations for the 20-year-old rookie, and a few ways to take advantage of his promotion even if he's not on your roster. Plus, a check-in on how we approached stolen bases on draft day as the midway point of the season draws closer, the risk of added fatigue for Shohei Ohtani in the second half, and the importance of setting innings milestones in leagues that have a minimum requirement.
