Happy opening day to those who celebrate.

0:03.9

We had a lot to react to, a lot of injuries, a lot of stolen bases, some aces getting blown up, and one ace that was really good.

0:10.7

I've got Glenn Colton joining me right now on the Rotow Roto Wire fantasy baseball podcast.

0:31.0

Brought to you by the good folks from Vivid Seats.

0:33.3

I am Jeff Erickson here with my good friend, Glenn Colton from Colton and the Wolfman on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio and Fantasy Alarm. Glenn, thank you so much for joining us. Happy opening day. Yes, a national holiday. It should be. But it is not for you. I know, unfortunately. You've got a real job. I have a day job, but I have the Wolfman who is just texting throughout the day. Oh,

0:55.8

I'll rise. It's Glaber Day and other fun notations of the day for Yankee fans,

1:01.8

including me, but not him strangely. But we have a lot of Aaron Judge in fantasy, so he's pretty

1:06.7

psyched. Did you get him in tout? Did not get them in tout, but we have them in the FSGA

1:11.7

league. We have them in the main event that you and I did together. And I have them in my

1:17.0

home league. So I've got a good number of shares. You had that sweet, sweet third overall pick

1:21.9

in our main event. I was down, you know, eating glue in the corner over there at 14. So,

1:26.2

although I'm actually kind of happy with that team. We'll see how it works out. But I like that we were far apart from each other. Yes, though you did snipe us once. We had, we said, all right. But it was on Yohan Montcata, so I can't get too angry with you. That was pretty late. was yeah um you know what it's funny i was

1:45.7

getting sniped a little bit in the end game by john posma actually early game too

1:49.9

Shane mclanhan went 3 14 313 oh what that's the max pick at the main event at least it was when

1:55.9

on monday night when we drafted uh he also got tommy edmund at 713 i think that have been his max. And when you're looking for stolen bases, that was frustrating. And then like four outfielders. We both were laid on outfielders like Jose Siri, who homered a day, James Altman, who's starting in center field for the Dodgers tonight. You know, I couldn't even get Austin Meadows. It was really frustrating. He got me like four times in always in these

2:17.5

odd number of rounds. He only won the main event overall before. So he might be a good player.

2:21.5

I don't know. It might be a pretty good player. But I will tell you this, the predictability,

2:25.8

and we'll talk about that draft, that was an unpredictable draft. I was surprised a number of times.

2:33.0

Yeah, me too. What was there? Good and bad when was our turn to pick. Yeah, I agreed, and it was different than my other two main events. So we will talk about that in full. But let's jump right off with it. Someone forgot to turn off the injury switch on our video game here, Glenn. Brutal day. I mean, just all the last week and a half, we've seen stuff.

2:52.9

But today alone, first of all, Justin Verlander with a surprise injury right there.

2:57.8

Nobody likes the surprise injury.

3:00.3

He has got a Terry's, a minor Terry's major strain, that is what they're calling, or a low level one.
