You're listening to This Week in Fantasy Baseball.

Hello, everyone, welcome to this week in fantasy baseball.

I'm John Cood, joined by Patrick Fitzgerald, as always. In this episode, we're going to go over the latest news and notes around baseball, recap the hitter picture of performances from this past week, and of course, we're going to give some streamer recommendations at the end of the show. But before we get into all of that, Patrick, how are you doing? Hey John John, I'm doing pretty well, aside from the Orioles currently getting no hit by Parker and Messick.

So hopefully by I'm mentioning that, it'll, you know, jinx a little breakup.

But if you're listening to this now, you'll obviously know if he completed the deed or not.

But yeah, I'm doing pretty well.

My fantasy teams, aside from one straggler, are really getting

I think partially it's because in both of my redraft leagues, I should say, on ESPN,

I went really hard on getting Cal Raleigh, and that has not worked out super well in either of those cases.

And then unfortunately, just been a bad week for pitching.

I decided, hey, Sunny Gray could do something well against the Twins, and he did not do very well against the Twins.

So, yeah, tough for me, but nonetheless, fantasy is going all right. Yeah, I think I thought something about how Rowley had a pretty slow start last year, too, so maybe it'll just be a blip on the radar when we look back at the end of the season. Right, that's kind of what I'm hoping for. He's, I think he's at like maybe two homers, I think, on the season. Maybe it's three now. So we'll see if that,

you know, was able to turn around for him. I mean, speaking of Parker Messick, I was kind of,

he was like a guy. I was like kind of casually targeting at the end of drafts, but never really

got any shares of him just because I think someone else liked him a little bit more or he was on

the waiver wire. I didn't feel like picking him up. But that Cleveland rotation, they always seem to
