0:00.0	Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Bros. MLB. This is leading off live.
0:09.9	Is me Joey P. Joe P's a P of course is the Welsh and we're brought to you by bet 365
0:14.0	Bet 5 bucks get a hundred and fifty and bonus bets when you do only with the promo
0:18.9	code leading off at bet 365 Welsh the dust has settled on the trade deadline and here we are, and I got to say yesterday's
0:27.3	deadline was a little disappointing, a couple of surprises, a lot of bullpen guys, and the White Sox, I feel like are the big losers here.
0:36.4	Well, when the dust is clear, they didn't make any of the big moves we were anticipating,

1:45.0	what is his value?
1:46.0	I guess is the real question, a guy who's hurt all the time.
1:49.1	Now, it's interesting with Aloy and I heard I'm talking about it yesterday was,
1:51.8	Jimenez has not one but two-player option years going,
