Hello, welcome to the Rota Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast. Today is Sunday, July 16th. I'm your host today, Chris Crawford. I am joined by my good friend, once again, Ryan Boyer. We're going to be looking at some players who performed well on Saturday, some players who did not perform so well on Saturday, and also offering some Fab recommendations because everybody

knows how much I love to talk about Fab. But let's talk about some headlines first. And Ryan,

Josh Donaldson, a name that is often in the headlights section for the wrong reasons.

I'm guessing he might be in this section again for the wrong reason again.

You are correct, sir.

Yeah.

I guess he must have first tweaked his calf like at the very beginning of July

during the Yankees road trip.

And he's been predominantly deaching since then.

Right.

He had kind of a flare up a week or so ago at home.

And, I mean, it looked like he was probably hit at the aisle then, but he managed to avoid it for now.

But yesterday, again, had another flare up in Colorado and has subsequently been

placed on the injured list.

I don't know how long of an absence this is going to be.

Something tells me that the Yankees aren't going to be super anxious to rush him back

um Donaldson has like 10 home runs or something this season and and he literally has like five other hits

so it's been not a great year he's still a good defensive player at third base so he's not

totally bereft of value but in the meantime oswald parraza on his way up and he had been his numbers in triple a have been pretty good um he had he had a huge

may and a lot of people were calling for him to to come back up then especially when

anthony volpe's been kind of up and down he was in in the midst of one of his cold streaks at that time.

Right.
