Hello and welcome to the independent podcast, a podcast about relievers part of the Pitcherless podcast network.

My name is Jake Crumpler, and as always, I'm joined by pitcherless bullpen expert.

Rick Graham, Rick, how's it going?

Last week we talked about Pokemon, and then, of course, I forgot to think of something else this week.

Do you have any questions for me? Um, no, I was waiting on, I was planning on you having something

for me. Um, but yeah, everything's, everything's going well, you know, um, looking forward to

getting into the postseason in the next couple weeks already out of some fantasy

leagues in the first round in the playoffs, which is sad. But still got some roto leagues that

I got a chance in that I'm still scrapping away, hoping to make a late push to get to the top

of those standings. Yeah, that's how I am in TGFBI right now.

I've been in the top 10 overall all year long, which is very surprising to me.

But of course, there's somebody in my league that is also in the top 10.

So I am in an intense battle with him while also trying to finish as high as I can

in the overall. So that's a tough battle. But, uh, yeah, I don't, I'm not really in a position

to win any of my other leagues outside of the pitcherless staff league. So I'm, I'm hoping I can

survive the playoffs there. Those are the, that's, I mean, that's the most important league.

You know, it's the test of, that's the most important league, you know, it's the test of

the quote unquote, um, experts.

It's that with, I don't know what we are, but we're, we're just regular people.

We're just normal men.

I know what you're referencing.

Um, okay. We are here to talk about reliever. So, like, I know what you're referencing. Okay.
