| 0:00.0 | There have been a large number of early round draft picks that have failed us this year, |
| 0:05.4 | or maybe we failed ourselves. |
| 0:07.1 | What did we miss? |
| 0:08.4 | Fred Zinke and I will discuss that coming up next on the Roto Wire Fancy Baseball podcast. Hey, everybody. |
| 0:26.2 | Welcome to the Roto Wire Fantasy Baseball podcast. |
| 0:28.8 | Jeff Erickson here with Fred Zinky. |
| 0:30.8 | As always, our podcast is brought to you by Price Picks and So Rare. |
| 0:34.4 | Thank you for your sponsorship. |
| 0:36.3 | What did we miss? There are so many early |
| 0:38.9 | round draft picks that have really skewed our team, you know, really screwed, skewed, skewered, |
| 0:43.9 | you name it, whatever they did to our teams. They messed them up real good. And there's a lot of them |
| 0:49.3 | that are not injury-based that have really let us down too. Fred and I thought it would be a good |
| 0:53.8 | amount, |
| 0:54.0 | good time to kind of go through some of these early round picks, about 10 of them and say, what really went wrong? What did we miss? And what should we think about these players going forward? Fred, what's going on? How you doing? Yeah, I mean, what could be better at the start of a great week of baseball than to talk about all the most negative things that have happened so far this season to our fantasy teams. |
| 1:31.2 | But, but there's, this is a good time for takeaways on some of these players. And are there big picture takeaways? Are there lessons to learn? And is there a whole four of them? So hopefully this will be able to help some people who, because you can have a really good team, but still have one of these guys on it. In fact, I have a really good team with julio rodriguez on it like you can have a good team with some of these guys on it yeah well i don't like hearing that you know you can overcome this because i haven't |
| 1:36.2 | you know not too many of them yeah not too many of them right now and yeah you know and we i've lamented it |
| 1:42.6 | before i'll do it again. Every day, Gunner |
| 1:45.8 | Henderson punishes me for passing on him and going for Francisco Lindor instead. Every day, |
| 1:50.6 | yesterday included. It just did Hunter get, did Gunner Henderson punish me? Yes. Yes, he did. |
| 1:57.5 | Yep. I feel the same way I passed on him for Jose Altuve and a lot of leaks. |
| 2:01.2 | But Altuve is doing great, but not quite Gunner Henderson great. Yeah, but yeah. So that's not bad, though. I mean, I went Lindor. I mean, that's the thing that really is a killer. Like, if it's one thing to mess up and you got a pretty good player still. I was surprised when I was looking at the auction value calculator that Lindoror, like he's on our list today, but he's actually, he wasn't like a total, he has some homers, he has some steals. The batting average is a killer, but he has some homers, he has some steals. Like for him to be a $12 player on the list, or no, he's down to 10 this morning or this afternoon. |
