| 0:29.0 | number 166. I am your host Nicholas Minix and joining me as usual during the week is you know Sarah so you know how are you today |
| 0:37.6 | I'm doing good my child woke me up around five and then again at six so not as chipper as I might normally be. |
| 0:48.0 | Well let's see how chipper we can make you by talking a little bit of baseball as it relates to fantasy. |
| 0:56.0 | I wanted to start with, I saw a recent report that Yasmani Tomas might be or seems to be the next major name Cuban who will be on the |
| 1:10.1 | free agent market available for bid and it's kind of in light of the |
| 1:14.4 | Rusny Castillo sweepstakes that Boston won convincingly or perhaps not |

| 2:03.0 | And Thomas is a guy, he tends to feature a bit less power than Castillo, |
| 2:11.0 | and certainly less speed, so I think it's going to be easy to say that we don't |
| 2:15.6 | like him as much as a Castillo but considering the kind of money that has been |
| 2:19.2 | thrown at these players and he is I think he's only 23 yeah he'll be 24 next season so there might be |
| 2:26.0 | there are some perception that there's a tiny bit of growth remaining in his |
