Summary
Today on the show we're attacking the best categories... STEALS AND SAVES! First, summer is here and Frank shares a bold prediction. What's the deal with stolen bases (5:48)? What did you need in 2019 to compete in this category and do sleepers even exist? ... Who are some of our favorite sleepers for steals (11:47)? Can guys like Garrett Hampson, Kevin Newman and Ender Inciarte help us? ... Adam reveals why you should be aggressive when drafting Trea Turner in the first round (21:25). ... Frank reveals a handful of deep sleepers for steals (22:45), including Tim Locastro, Myles Straw, Jorge Mateo and more. ... What is the current state of saves and why does it suck (23:55)? How do you identify potential sleepers for saves (29:09)? Does it make sense to try and handcuff Mark Melancon and Will Smith? Which of the Rays relievers do we prefer? Why does everybody hate Brandon Kintzler? ... Adam provides a trivia question regarding teams who have not had repeat saves leaders (42:28)! ... Then we answer some of your mailbag questions!
