| 0:00.0 | The first game is in the books. Let's recap Yankees and Giants up next on Fantasy Baseball |
| 0:05.0 | Today Express. Welcome into FBT Express on opening day, March 26th. We made it. I am Frank |
| 0:12.6 | Stample, joined by Chris Towers. Let's recap this game. The first game opening night, |
| 0:18.0 | Yankees beat the Giants seven zip in this one. We'll start with the good. |
| 0:22.0 | That was Max Fried. Six and a third, shout out innings, two hits, one walk, four strikeouts. |
| 0:26.9 | He had just six swinging strikes on 86 pitches. Veloed down a bit here, Chris, one to two miles per hour. |
| 0:33.7 | Didn't seem like he had his best swing and miss stuff, but was hitting his spots pretty |
| 0:37.7 | well, kept opposing hitters off balance. I thought he mostly looked like Max Fried. Yeah, he had a |
| 0:43.7 | somewhat alarming spring, if you are the type of person who cares about that. But I think with a guy |
| 0:49.8 | like Max Fried, there's no reason to worry about a spring training. His velocity was down a little bit, |
| 0:56.2 | but 1.2 miles per hour or less on every pitch doesn't really strike me as particularly alarming. |
| 1:03.5 | So I think you can, all systems go for Max Fried moving forward. It's a deep pitch mix. He's a veteran |
| 1:10.6 | who knows how to get guys out. |
| 1:12.4 | Even if he is sitting, you know, around a mile per hour down, that only thing takes him back to |
| 1:18.8 | where he was in 2024, right? So I don't really think there would be anything to be concerned about |
| 1:23.5 | here. It was about as promising a first start as you could hope for. On the other side, |
| 1:29.1 | we tried to tell you about Logan Webb's whip, man. It's a bad one. Now, he just obviously goes up |
| 1:34.1 | against a tough lineup here with the Yankees. Five innings, nine hits allowed, seven runs, six of those |
| 1:39.8 | earned. Did have seven strikeouts still in this one. His sinker velocity was down 1.4 miles per hour from last year. |
| 1:46.8 | He just kind of got hit hard in two of the innings |
| 1:49.3 | and it just everything unraveled in those two specific innings. |
| 1:52.5 | He did not allow seven runs in a game all of last year. |
