Hello everyone and welcome to the Keeper Cup podcast. I'm Chad Young, joined us always by Pete Ball. Happy New Year. Last we talked to you, it was still 2023. It's now 2024.

Exciting year. We're getting close to spring training just weeks away. I'm like, I'm ready. I think especially because the hot stove

has been kind of slow, although we're recording this on Sunday morning, and it was just announced

that the Mets have signed Sean Manaya.

That's about the biggest news we've gotten recently.

Things are just sort of crawling along, and so I'm like, all right, let's get some,

let's get some baseball going.

Yeah, man, totally.

I'm fortunate, like, if you really need to scratch the itch and you're allowed to do this in your state. I highly recommend an NFBC

50s for our draft because I've had the itch for over a month now and I am just in the middle of

my second draft. That's how long these things take. And it lets you really sit down. It gets you

deep in the weeds. I mean, the last pick in this draft that I'm currently in

was it's got to be somebody. D.L. Hall went in the 34th round. So I'm deep in the weeds

ready to go here. I highly recommend NFBC 50s. It's a draft and hold four hours. That'll

that'll scratch the itch and hold you over for some time yeah i've been i

can't do those things in my state but i have been working on my 24 fan grafts points rankings

and that's like a it's a process to go through there are i'll tell you and I know I need to add players to this because there's some

players who aren't in the auto new universe yet that I need to look at, like Yuki Matsui,

the other, the Korean reliever that San Diego signs.

Usako.

Usoko.

He's not in there yet.
