The Welcome to episode 95 of the Sleeper and the Bus podcast brought to you by

fan graphs. I'm your host Jason Colette joined by Eno Serres you know what's

going on today bud? I might finally not be sick.

Awesome. God, this kid. The worst man. Kids are just germ factory so.

Yeah. Thankfully my eight and six year old are out of that face I have remarkably

healthy children I'm waiting for that to end but so far so good with that

let's get right into it though.

We have, today we have the Rangers and the Rays to discuss,

lots of fantasy relevance with these teams obviously because they're both competitive teams,

lots of value there, both in pitching staff and the offense.

Let's start with the Rangers and let's start with their biggest acquisition of the

off season and that's Prince Fielder. Prince Fielder comes from Detroit, a part

that suppressed his power a little bit to Texas, one that is seemingly tailor made for him.

One of the things that people often forget about Texas is it used to, back in the Raphael-Palmero days it used to have this natural

wind tunnel, the right center field.

And they did some work to the stadium, made a stadium club, did something behind home plate that cut down

on that a little bit. That said, that park is still

tailor made for offense and as it warms up in Texas as it often does every

single summer. I think this is gonna be a nice year for him, especially with Chu hitting in front of him in the lineup, not direct spot, but still leading off in that lineup fielders going to hit third. I think Prince Fielders then for a big

year I see him going within the first two rounds of all drafts and I have zero

problem with that. What about you?

Yeah I mean I guess the question is really you.
