Welcome to the Roto Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast, sponsored by WinBet.

I'm Clay Link here with Todd Zola of Roadwire and Masters Ball. Always great to be talking

with you, Todd. Next week's two-star starters looking a little thin, but we'll be hitting those,

of course, and talking some pickups. Nelson Cruz got dealt last night. You think that's maybe the

move that kind of breaks the dam with the trades?

A lot of damning going on from ALEA's, but a different spelling.

ALEC fans, I should say.

Yeah, we'll see.

I think this was inevitable, and I think if some people pointed out, Tampa is very smart.

They did it just before Series with Boston and the Yankees.

And they did it just after an interleague set.

I haven't checked to see how many more interleague series they have, if any.

But, you know, Tampa not waiting, getting out there and getting their guy now.

And based on, I mean mean James is James Anderson obviously is

better to talk about the prospects but it's see the the general consensus is it's not a bad

haul considering it's a rental whatever two month rental two two two month and a couple

week rental so yeah that was the sense I got too. Yeah.

So, you know, did no one else offer anything better, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

So we'll see.

Yeah.

I mean, and the other big question related to it is, will Minnesota continue to deal?

Or do they feel as though, you know, we're still going to be, it's just an off year we have a chance next year Nelson Cruz wasn't signed for next year there's no sense there's no sense
