| 0:00.0 | Sunday night is here again. |
| 0:02.4 | We got lots of baseball and talk about all coming up next in the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast. |
| 0:20.2 | Happy Sunday evening, everybody. Welcome to the Road to Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast. I am Scott Jensen. Join, as always, on Sunday nights by Jeff Erickson. Please rate and review the podcast. Helps us out a lot. Helps the podcast out a lot if you enjoy listening to us. That would be much appreciated there. Jeff, aside from a 40-point halftime lead, how's your Sunday night going? |
| 0:38.5 | Going pretty well. |
| 0:39.8 | It was, you know, it's a weird week in Fab because, you know, unless you are really |
| 0:46.1 | indicate Horton, I don't think there were too many big bids unless there's like a league |
| 0:50.8 | where someone dropped a player that you think is worth grabbing after. |
| 0:53.7 | And that happens like in your odd league here and there. |
| 0:56.2 | You always have to pay attention to the drops your league just in case something like that does happen. |
| 1:00.4 | Yeah, I had a couple of those actually. |
| 1:02.2 | So I've got some I've got some bigger bids to talk about here. |
| 1:04.9 | And I had someone who I got outbid on who was trying to get that went to, |
| 1:07.9 | but it was more of like a high double digit kind of week for people for some players rather than you know some of the triple digits weeks we've had in the last last few |
| 1:14.4 | weeks here yeah absolutely so uh yeah and i hey uh and also i spent big earlier so this was kind |
| 1:21.0 | of also a keep your keep my powder dry sort of week anyhow yeah there was only uh only one bit over |
| 1:26.4 | a hundred bucks in either of my two-made event league so So it was definitely, definitely quiet there. But we will get there. First, we'll talk about what's going on in the league. Some players here. Jeff, I think we're at the point of the year where we can see, Sandy Alcantra and Alcatera is not, not pitching well, did not pitch you well again today. You know, this is obviously someone that we all like. |
| 1:44.9 | We all want to do well. When you drafted them, you draft them fairly high, not as high as usual, but still took a, took a price to pay. What the heck do you do with this guy right now? He's got an 8-1 ERA through, what is that, eight starts. We talked about him last week, but like, you know, he's got the Dodgers. and then he's got Miami. |
| 1:40.7 | We're like, well, I think you can throw the Dodgers start |
| 1:41.9 | because you get the Miami start in the back end. |
| 1:43.5 | Did not go overly well. We talked about him last week. He's got the Dodgers. Then he's got Miami. We're like, well, I think you can throw the Dodgers start because you get the Miami start |
| 2:02.1 | in the back end. |
| 2:03.0 | Did not go overly well. Four earned runs. He'd have eight strikeouts, but seven hits, three walks in five and two-thirds. So we got past that where we both, I was more, I think I was more likely to play him than you were. but we're doing with someone like this going? It's such a hard spot to be in where he was kind of one of your guys. You took him |
