the trade deadline has passed there might be a deal or two that trickles in i just saw one involving

a reliever with the met's so still could happen but still uh we are done and some big names remain

some big days some big names moved we'll talk about that all on the rotowire fancy baseball

podcast fantasy baseball podcast.

Everybody, welcome to the Roto Wire fantasy baseball podcast.

Jeff Erickson here with Fred Zinke. Trade deadline edition.

We are, Fred Zinke and I are excited to talk about that. We purposely scheduled this to be.

So at the end, to make sure that we get all the trades 90% of the trades. We're going to start tackling that right now. The big news today, of course, Fred was Justin Verlander going

to the Astros.

Yeah. I mean, doesn't this just feel like the perfect fit, right? Like, this is clear.

This is the team where, I mean, Verlander, he goes to the Mets. He's a little shaky at the start

of the year, you know, opens year on the IL, 480 ERA in May, then rounds back into

form in June, 333 ERA, July 169 ERA, I think it was a 102 whip this last month, I guess last

month now, four wins and six starts. So he's ramped up into form. Now he's going to go back

to a Houston team where he was consistently amazing.

You know, he had a whip below one in every season that he was with the Astros.

And to me, this just has a feel of something that's going to be a game changer for that team in real baseball.

And like, I guess he's already awesome in fantasy,

but maximize his fantasy production for the rest of the season.

Yeah, anybody that's got the hammer though in AL only leagues,

he's very happy with this.

Yes.
