Summary
What a wild Wednesday of action it was! Let's get things started with the pitching prospects who were on the mound (2:29). Who was most impressive out of Nate Pearson, Cristian Javier, and Zach Plesac? Are Javier and Plesac must-own players? ... Jacob deGrom, Frankie Montas, and Brandon Woodruff highlight our OMGG players of the night (16:40). Is Woodruff's increased changeup usage a thing? ... How did Lucas Giolito and Charlie Morton look in their second starts (23:49)? Should we be encouraged? ... News and notes (30:54)! The Reds are healthy and dangerous, Juan Soto could be back by next week, and what should we do with Willie Calhoun? ... Who stands out most when looking at early trends for hitters (42:11)? How good can Corey Seager be? Can Luis Robert be this year's Fernando Tatis Jr.? We also have some bullpen updates (50:30). Taylor Rogers picked up the save for the Twins while Brandon Workman and Brad Hand weren't as great. What's going on with the Rays and Royals' bullpens? ... Email us at fantasybaseball@cbsi.com.
