0:00.0	We have a lot of day baseball and a lot to talk about today on the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast.
0:19.5	Welcome to the Friday edition of the Rotowire Fantasy Baseball podcast.
0:24.2	I'm Clay Link of Rotowire.com here with FSWA Hall of Famer Todd Zola.
0:30.7	Todd, it's been a tough opening week with injuries.
0:33.2	We got Yuri Perez headed for Tommy John surgery.
0:38.1	It's unfortunate.
0:40.2	Royce Lewis, Josh Young.
0:46.9	I actually, I have to admit, I have both Royce Lewis and Josh Young in the main event.
0:50.5	I just had to double dip on the injury risk.
0:57.3	It's been a painful opening week, but we persevere. Don't we, Todd?
1:05.9	Yuri Perez, by the way, it a drop for me even in, well, two keeper leagues. I cut him last night and one, Derek Van Riper's, and I'm going to be cutting him in the Staff Keeper League,
1:10.6	Rotowire Staff Keeper League this weekend. So how much did you bid for Tray Lipscomb? You know, I was way off. I only bid a few dollars and he went for 16.

1:40.6	So, yeah, third base were slim pickings, and so were they in the middle infield.
1:45.7	Early on with, with a few injuries to deal with, it's already getting us in 15 team leagues.
1:52.9	I mean, forget about managing your reserves.
1:56.0	They're now your IL and NFBC, TGFBI, et cetera.
2:00.3	Yeah, in the main events, I did grab J.D. Davis in reserve, so I moved him up to third base, and I picked up Nolan Shanwell with the first lineup period, so I moved him to the corner, but it's, you know, I'm probably going to have to drop, well, definitely one of the two, maybe both in the main
2:18.5	events.
