There's no more trade deadline to talk about. It's just managing the stretch run now and avoiding

0:05.8

the whammies. We'll talk about that and a whole lot more on the Rotowire fantasy baseball

0:10.2

podcast.

0:26.3

Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Roto Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast.

0:27.8

Jeff Erickson here with Fred Zinky.

After last week's epic, still running podcast, post-trade deadline podcast, it's a little calmer this week.

0:55.3

It's actually, it was a quiet day yesterday in baseball, like, I think, seven games. Busy full slate today, though, Fred, and we're ready to get back at it. How you doing? I'm good. Yeah, it was a quiet day yesterday. Not many games and some low-scoring games. Just not. And that's okay. we can have a, even a quiet day for baseball is somewhat eventful,

0:59.6

but we can have a quiet Monday once in a while, catch our breasts. But yeah, no, I'm through the trade deadline, through that fab run, post-trade deadline, which I think maybe wasn't quite as fruitful as

1:06.1

some people were hoping it to be. But still had some, still had some good, good options that we obviously broke down

1:12.9

for four or five hours or whatever it was last, last Tuesday night.

1:55.3

auction, he hadn't signed yet with the Reds or he was still eligible to be drafted.

1:59.5

So he was on Jason Colletteette's roster so i didn't even

2:02.7

get tommy tomby wow eric hosemar was my prize oh that is so and in the end you probably would

2:10.4

have preferred massey maybe yeah maybe we'll see about that but in fact uh maybe so. Maybe not, but we'll see. But just gross. Now I've got to look to see who got if any, who if anyone got Massey? Because I didn't even think about that one there. If he's even roster. No, he was picked up. I'm sure he was picked up. Yeah.
