Join today again by KC. Bubba,

who's back after being off on Monday.

Good to see you again, my friend. We're going to be running through all of the baseball news, the headlines. There's a lot of injuries, bringing you the best bets, home run calls and all that, Bubba. Great to have you back, my friend. Always good to be back. Glad Ryan was able to at least, you know, kind of fill in. You're never going to compete with this chair. but it was good to see him there and hopefully he can, you know, kind of fill in, you know, you're never going to compete with this chair.

But it was good to see him there.

And hopefully he can, you know, keep doing it down the line. Yeah, Ryan was so good that we've asked him back. And he'll actually be back in the co-host chair next Monday. So if you like Ryan, make sure you are coming back and watching that one with us. Before we get going, though, I want to remind you guys that we are giving away a Billy Wagner signed baseball courtesy of our friends over at pristineauction.com. All you have to do to enter is subscribe to the Fantasy Pros MLB YouTube channel right now. Drop a comment below on any video, and that's it. We'll be announcing one lucky winner right here on the channel. So make sure to turn on those notifications so you know when new videos are up and to claim your prize. Guys, a little bit of an announcement. This will be our last show of the year on Twitch. Now, don't panic. We haven't been canceled. We have not been canceled. We are moving over. Not yet. Not yet. Give it a week or so. But we are moving over to YouTube. back where we were for many, many years on leading off. So make sure you guys, if you are, you know, if you've unsubscribed on YouTube or something and you just watch the show over here, go back to YouTube, subscribe to the channel. Make sure you guys are liking and commenting and doing all those things. You can get yourself the Billy Wagner baseball. and it also really helps us out this time of year, as we will be transitioning back to YouTube. I'm going to hit you guys over the head with a sledgehammer about 10 times today reminding you and I'll probably send something out on socials as well. But make sure you guys subscribing. Fantasy Pros MLB on YouTube is where you'll see us live for the final six or seven shows. I'm not sure how many we have left, but something like that,

they will be on YouTube.

But let's get into it today.

We're going to start with the headlines,

and we're going to start with Spencer Strider. Finally a good one. Finally got back on track. Six inning, six hits, two are in runs, three walks, and eight strikeouts for Mr. Strider. And I was talking about this with Ryan the other day,

and I think we may have discussed Strider once or twice, Bubba.

I have no idea what to make him heading into next year. What I said to Ryan is I want to see a few encouraging starts to end the season, leave you with that nice feeling heading into the winter. But whatever he does over these next few starts, overall numbers are pretty bad the strikeouts are down
