And of course, you can always catch us on our YouTube channel as well. Subscribe over there. Watch us on demand over Fantasy Bros. MLB and Welsh. We got a lot to talk about today. We've got our home run calls. We've got some guys working their way back from the minor leagues. We've got some injuries, too, that could make an impact on some fantasy shares.
