This is an IHeart podcast.

Hey everybody, Daniel Jeremiah here.

And I'm Bucky Brooks.

On Move the 6th, we take you inside the game from breaking down college prospects and NFL rookies

to evaluating team building philosophies, coaching trends, and how front offices construct winning rosters.

We study the tape, talk to decision makers, and give you a perspective you won't find anywhere else.

It's everything you need to understand the why behind what happens on Sunday.

Don't miss it.

What's going on, everybody? Welcome into Fantasy Pros. This is leading off live the Fantasy Baseball podcast. I'm your host Joe O'Riko, joined again today by Casey Bubba.

And yes, it is our final time together for the 2025 fantasy baseball season. Bubba, it's been great getting to talk with you here a couple times a week, getting to talk some baseball and just catch up. It's been really good, man. Thank you so much for joining me again today. How are you doing? I'm doing well. And honestly, I hope we get to do it again next year. Hopefully we get to do more often.

Just tell those guys to stick with football. We got this covered. It's not that big a deal. But always good, chat with you. We need to do it more often. Either here, our show somewhere. We need to make it happen. This is the problem. I used to do a show every single day. I used to bring on a lot more guests. I just have a lot more conversations throughout the industry.

I don't do that show anymore, but I'm very happy to bring on a lot more guests. I used to have a lot more conversations throughout the industry.

I don't do that show anymore, but I'm very happy to be able to talk with you here. Nonetheless, Bubba. And we're going to be in person in a couple of months. So that should be fun as well down in the desert. But today, guys, fill up the chat with your questions. This will be our final show of the year. and I want to talk about some potential streamers the rest of the way,

some hot bats that are being picked up.

We're going to go through a couple of the headlines from yesterday and a couple of injuries as well, but let me know if you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them what I wanted to start off with here. But just talk about a couple of hot guys over the last few days. See if you think they're viable pickups here for the final week of the season. Esauk Parades is the first one that comes to mind.

We talked about, the last few days. See if you think they're viable pickups here for the final week of the season.

Esoc Paredes is the first one that comes to mind. We talked about him, I think a little bit last week. He's hit one home runs since he's returned. He's been hitting third in the lineup for the Astros. If you need a little bit of a boost right now, is he somebody that you think is worth picking up, especially because Houston right now is in Sacramento.

Yeah, if you want the Sacramento boost for sure, I would jump on that with ESOC. I think he's still just trying to get like, you know, kind of knocked the rest off from the long layoff. He does get to go to Anaheim this weekend and has a phenomenal schedule against Hendrix, Kate and Dana, and Aldegarry potentially. And the potentially. And the Astros are fighting for that postseason life.

Like right now they're out of the playoffs as we speak, which is crazy to think about

because the Tigers have the sixth.
