| 0:02.0 | Up next on Fantasy Baseball Today Express. |
| 0:05.5 | Welcome into FBT Express on Wednesday, February 25th. |
| 0:09.2 | I am Frank Stamphle joined by Chris Towers. |
| 0:12.0 | Let's do a little spring training, believe it or not. |
| 0:14.4 | We've got some statements here, some things that are going on lately. |
| 0:17.9 | And let's discuss up first where Brandon Woodruff might not be ready for |

| 1:20.6 | with shoulder injuries that led to surgery. His return from that shoulder surgery last season was an arduous process |
| 1:29.5 | to say the least. He had many fits and starts ending with a lat injury that ended his season. |
| 1:36.6 | He's by all accounts healthy right now. But when you're talking about, you know, a 122 ADP in the |
