0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Rota Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast. I am Chris Crawford and I am joined
0:07.1	today by my friend and colleague Ryan Boyer. Today is Saturday, April 15th, and today's
0:12.2	episode is brought to you by rival fantasy. So we're going to like a look at the first two weeks
0:16.9	of the season and on today's shows, we're going to be looking at some players who've gotten off to inauspicious starts to the 2023 campaign and whether you should remain
0:25.1	patient or maybe whether it's time to move on. But before we do that, right, we got to look
0:30.0	at some headlines and look. I'm biased. I got to talk about Jared Kelley. Homered in four
0:36.0	straight games and not just homering, destroying
0:39.8	baseballs also doubled. He is currently hitting Ryan. And this is like so, uh, warming to my heart.
0:50.7	366, 422, 780, 4 homers, two stolen bases.

1:25.9	victory lap on Jared Kelnick.
1:30.3	Never.
1:31.0	We've been waiting for it.
1:33.4	Yeah, I mean, I'll be honest.
1:35.3	Like, when I saw that home run, especially the one at Wrigley, I didn't, I knew he had power.
1:43.0	I did not know he had that kind of power. Like, the wind was blowing out that's true but I mean like I don't know if you heard the reaction from especially the Cubs broadcasters I did John Chiamby was was just like dumbfounded he He's like, oh my gosh.
2:04.2	I don't think I've seen a ball hit there before.
2:05.9	Oh, my gosh, man.
2:09.4	Yeah, I actually saw it was funny.
