Summary

Drew Silva (@drewsilv) and Chris Crawford (@crawford_milb) take a look at the early headlines from the weekend including Chris Sale being placed on the injured list. They also take a look at the standard 5x5 pitching categories and players and players they believe can continue to contribute in the category, and some players that are likely to see regression over the summer months. A new MLB season means it’s time for a new kind of daily fantasy baseball. Rival Fantasy is the fantasy platform reinventing the way Daily and Weekly games are played, and they’ve brought new games to the ballpark this year that Fantasy players won’t find anywhere else.

0:13.5	This is the afternoon of Saturday, June 3rd. I'm Drew Silva with me here as Chris Crawford.
