I was, I was getting ready for the duke, 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.360 your dues. I had to change it up. I can't 0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:05.000 sing without gregor rat like we are. We are a 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.680 well formed duo when it comes to singing. But you 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:11.760 take one guy away and it's like, and honestly, I 0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:13.440 was like, should I do that? Do I want to 0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:16.520 do that? Because the other times I don't want to listen. 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.120 I was kind of coming in with the idea that 0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.039 I would do it for you because because I know 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:21.840 you're gonna do your business. And I was like, oh 0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.120 my god, I'm not gonna leave Frank hanging. But I 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:29.080 will tell you that. Um I met Mariano about six 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:36.000 weeks ago in a Japanese habachi place in Westchester. I 0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:40.280 feel like, either you know you talked about this on 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.520 the Sleeper in the Bus podcast, Yes, cause I listened 0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:45.280 to that episode, Like, yes, God, I listened to that 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:48.200 episode and I remembered. I just remember that story when 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:50.280 you brought up right, So how awesome was that it was? 0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:52.720 It was remarkable. And you know, I'm in the industry, 0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:55.320 of in the entertainment industry, so I'm pretty good at 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.640 not being like star struck by people. But I'm walking out. 0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:01.560 Um after it was my younger son's birthday and we 0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:03.960 went to habachi and they're throwing stuff and you know, 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:07.600 it's fun, and then um I walked out and there's 0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:11.400 Mariana and I just went, oh, man, look at that guy. 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:13.320 I was like, I think I'm not a might allowed 0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:17.160 a curse on the show. Uh okay, I said, I said, 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:21.160 oh spit, damn. And then I went over and I 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:23.600 talked to him for a solid five minutes. Um. He 0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:25.880 was incredibly gracious, and you know, I was just talking 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:28.600 about how I tried to buy him dinner because I 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:30.800 was like, you know when they say that man is 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:33.040 never gonna buy another meal in that town. Again, I 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:34.680 was like, if you have the opportunity to buy, and 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:36.720 he's like no, no, no, no, no no. But it 0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:39.600 was really great. So I'm thrilled to hear that, the 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:42.200 very good. I actually made that exact intro for the 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:45.760 day after Marianna was announced as the first ever unanimous 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:47.560 Hall of Famer. I was like, come on, I gotta 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:49.760 I gotta make something to commemory Marianna. So that was 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.520 the intro that I made. And then I tell our 0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:56.240 guy downstairs Bivona on the ones and twos this week, No, Greg, 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:58.600 I can't sing without him.

I'm very happy 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:02.560 to have him back in the studio, even more so 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:05.760 than you know his acting chops. We get him in 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:08.040 here for his fantasy baseball chops. This guy is no joke. 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:11.560 This guy is no joke. Last year fifteen Team Auction 0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:16.240 g d D the Gotham Diamond District Auction fifteen teams. 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:18.680 No easy task taking down a league like that. He 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:22.680 didn't just take it down, he controlled it. He dominated 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:26.760 it all season long. And now find himself as a 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:31.000 contributor to Rhoda Wire, contributing his top four hundred Dynasty, 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:33.920 which you can go over and you can get right now. 0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:36.200 And that's specifically what we're gonna talk about today, not 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:38.600 just your rankings, not just where you have some of 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:40.880 the top prospects ranked, but I want to specifically get 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:43.520 into some strategy talk with you when it comes to dynasty. 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:44.960 I believe you are a part of the rhotal Wire 0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:49.040 Dynasty Invitational. Is that correct share a team with James Anderson, 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.880 with the great James Anderson, who rates he really is 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:55.000 and he's a really good friend. And we built a 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:58.080 great team together and we uh and there's theory behind 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:01.119 dynasty baseball. I mean, it's you know, it's so funny. 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.520 I was talking different. It is a different beast. And 0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:06.800 there's another great there's a there's a great player by 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:08.279 the name of Tom Trudeau. I don't know if you 0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:12.040 know Tom. He's Tom tru Trudeau is one of is 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:15.679 one of the great best dynasty players in the country 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:17.920 for sure. And we were talking yesterday on the phone. 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:19.839 We were talking about a deal in another league, and 0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:22.720 we were catching up about stuff, and I said to him, 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:26.960 I said, you know what's interesting is Fantasy Baseball Redraft 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.640 is kind of like Texas hold him right, just like 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:32.239 hold him and you're playing. It's a roto fifteen team. 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:36.479 That's whereas Dynasty league is like playing Omaha. It's the 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:40.200 same game, but with completely different rules and completely different 0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.280 ideas about how to do it. And if you know 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.640 what you're doing with dynasty leagues, it can be super fun. 0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.160 And if you don't know what you can what you're doing, 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:50.040 you're gonna find yourself in a big old hole. Um 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:53.640 and yeah, so man, this is so mean. Speaking of 0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:57.000 being in holes in dynasty leagues, our friend Justin Mason says, hello, 0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:00.880 Oh is he is he down? There was going on 0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:05.679 in the rebuilding years of his dynasty. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:09.760 And so that was really mean, literally, I know. But 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:11.599 I was just on the phone with him talking about it, 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:14.040 talking about a possible trade. That's how I was gonna 0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:15.400 go on with you. He said, Oh, Frank's the best. 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:17.040 I really like Frank I said, yeah, like Frank too, 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.360 I told him, you say I and now Justin don't 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.280 watch that. I hope Justin doesn't see that. No, when 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:25.599 I mentioned dynasty baseball is a different beast just versus 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:28.800 dynasty football. Look, there's to be honest, there's just a 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:30.920 lotless players to know when it comes to like other 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:34.440 dynasty sports. Like let's be honest here, look thirty teams 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:38.200 in baseball twenty five man active rosters. That seven fifty 0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:41.120 players right there. If you get into forty man rosters, 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.840 now we're talking twelve hundred players. And then there are 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.719 players who are prospects who aren't even on the forty 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:48.800 man ros. So I mean you're talking upwards of over 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.400 a thousand players that you kind of just need to 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.080 have in your noggin somewhere, or you need to have 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:56.479 you need to know the good places to go to 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.520 get understandings about these players. Absolutely, I mean, and I'm 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:01.160 just against on like a sales pitch, but if if 0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:04.680 you're not a Rotal Wire subscriber, Rotal Wire to me 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:06.560 is the best place to go because not only are 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.280 you getting the what it could be argued, is the 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:11.680 best prospect analysis in the business in James Anderson, but 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.880 you're also getting um Derek Van Riper, you're getting Jeff Ericson, 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.240 you're getting Clay Link, who won I mean he won everything. 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:22.080 He won the Gretty Fancy Baseball and he also even 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.280 that this year. Yes, I am in this. I finished 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.600 fourth overall last year, and you get a fist on 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:30.440 that won my specific league, because like there's all different 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:32.320 leagues and there's also an overall prize. So I won 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:35.360 my specific league. I came in fourth overall, and now 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:37.400 this year it seems like there's a champions and you're 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:39.640 in the Champions League everyone who won their specific league 0:07:39.680 --> 0:07:42.080 last year. So I'm going to trust Nation is the 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:45.480 He is the owner of the you know of the 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.080 Sleeper in the Bus, congrats and the Sleeper in the 0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:49.440 Bus winning a Fantasy Baseball podcast of the Year, which 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:51.440 you were just on recently. So yes, I'm I'm sort 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:56.120 of their fifth outfielder. That's what I happened. But when 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:58.880 it comes to get the Champions League, like I'm competing 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.040 against James Andersons in their Adam Ronus is a lot 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:04.560 of great players in our g d D. I'm a 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.400 little bit over my head here you're not over right, 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:09.440 if I'm being honest, you know you're not. You're ready 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:13.040 to go. Hey, you were fourth overall out of how many? 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.400 How many people were in that? I mean, I can't 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:18.640 even tell you abound four hundred players. You know it's 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.440 again it goes back to the poker analogy. D this 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:23.000 is the world who is of poker? And you came 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:25.840 in fourth? That's pretty darn good man. Let's get back 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:27.520 to the dynasty, right, because that's why we're here. You 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:30.480 have your top four hundred rankings over at Rhoda Wire. 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:32.520 The first question we get a lot of the time 0:08:32.520 --> 0:08:36.600 when it comes to dynasty any sport. In a startup dynasty, 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:40.120 how do I draft? Do you draft for the future? 0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:43.040 Do you draft for now? Is it a mix of both? 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:45.000 Does depending on what kind of player you are, how 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.840 patient you are. I think another question that you have 0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.280 to answer is realistically, how long do you expect this 0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.160 dynasty league to last? Because a lot of them don't. 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:55.679 Unfortunately a lot of them don't. I've not played in 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.320 one dynasty league that's folded. If you're getting involved in 0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:00.400 a dynasty league considered like getting involve done a long 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:03.439 term relationship with a woman I played. I played in one, 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:05.600 and I won the first year and the next year 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:07.640 ye didn't happen because I mean there were a lot 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:09.960 of moving parts, Like there were contracts for players, Like 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.360 we had to to what signed like five year contracts 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:16.240 to like four players, and we had six four four 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.760 year contracts and it was just a lot of dynaster. 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.360 That's that's a keeper league, which is a different is 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.360 you keep pretty much every player, Yeah, but eventually you 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.400 have to give those players back. In dynasty league means 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:29.880 you own the team. You own the team, and you 0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:32.160 decide and you keep every one of your players. The 0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:34.719 closest thing to real baseball, it is, it is, It 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:38.040 is absolutely like owning your own franchise. So, okay, getting 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:40.080 to your to your question about the best way to 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.400 draft for dynasty leagues, Okay, there's a lot of different 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.080 ways to go about it. Here's how I go about it, 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:47.880 and you need to be actually need to be a 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:51.480 pretty savvy owner to pull this style off. But it 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:59.560 works always. Always what I do and what James and 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:01.560 I did, what I've done in the other two leagues 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:06.120 is I draft young bats from the beginning. So in 0:10:06.160 --> 0:10:08.640 the first round, you don't have to necessarily draft a 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:11.480 young prospect. You can draft a young bat that is playing. 0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:13.000 So we got Freddie Freeman in the first round. He 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:16.200 was twenty years old at the time. In the second round, 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.200 we kind of we went a little off there because 0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:20.800 we took Chris Sale because we weren't short which quite 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.560 which way we were going. Within the third round, we 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:25.240 picked up Azzi Albie's, who brings great value because he's 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:27.920 a twenty year old hitter who has a great future 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:30.160 ahead of him. And then starting in the fifth round, 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:35.880 we just consistently went forward with young bat prospects, Bobachette, 0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:40.120 Royce Lewis um all the way down the line. And 0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:43.520 we went from the fifth round through the thirtieth round 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:47.600 filling our team with young bats, which then in the 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.680 first week of May, what we did was we then 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:52.840 flipped those young bats. The teams that had gone for 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.080 it this year. They were going forward because they wanted 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:56.920 to win the prize. They wanted to get that flag 0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.920 in that very first year. So then I reach out 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.040 and I say, hey, you know, I'm going to be 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:05.679 selling these young bats. Whoever decides to sell me their 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:08.079 players first is going to get these young bats. So 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:10.600 in that two week period, we got Jean Carlos Anton, 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:15.080 we got Paul Goldschmidt, we got wit maryfield Um, we 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:19.400 got Carlos Carrasco. All for we got first, second, and 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:22.320 third round picks in the original draft for guys we 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:26.559 took in the eighth, ninth, fourteenth round. Because young bats 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:28.560 is the currency you want. Young arms is not quite 0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:30.840 the same thing because you draft a j Puck, he 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:33.520 gets a little boom, he's done and his value goes 0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:36.360 from you can draft him in the ninth round. Well, 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.560 now he's really a thirtieth round player because he's gonna 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:41.040 be coming off t J surgery. So it's about drafting 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:44.720 young bats and then you know, spotting the opportunities and 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.679 how did you do in that league? We started out 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.360 on May one, we were It's Twente League and on 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:54.679 May one we had no dynasty. Yeah, yeah, it's a 0:11:54.679 --> 0:11:58.120 good league team league. On May one we had out 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.600 of two points, I think we had four eight points. 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:02.800 Then we made all of our trades over the course 0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:05.319 of the next couple of months, and then we rolled 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:08.600 and we finished with a hundred and sixty five points, 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:10.560 three points out of first place. And if Chris Sale 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:12.880 had not gotten injured, we would have, I believe, won 0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:15.640 that league. But we climbed and if we didn't have 0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:19.160 three weeks four weeks of no stats, the team that 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.760 we built would have you know, but we did, and 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:26.920 that's how we built. But we're built for a year two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:29.720 nine and ten. We're built for the future. We will 0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:32.160 either be in first, second, or third moving forward and 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.880 nothing will stand in our way. And that's how it's 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:39.240 so much like real baseball, like running a franchisees, you 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:43.600 have to weigh do I sell off prospects to try 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:45.960 and win now or set myself up for the next 0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:48.720 you know, three years. But you can do it fast, 0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:50.319 but you can do it fast. It doesn't have to 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:52.760 be like professional baseball where you sit for three years, 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:56.360 because it's all about psychology. Right. So even with us 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:59.199 set up to dominate next year, we made a trade 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:02.000 with our friend Matt Dica about a month ago, which 0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:05.640 may seem odd. We gave up Carlos Carrasco, Brad Hand, 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:09.280 and Brett Gardner and received back. And this is a 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:13.240 dynasty league show. Hey Otani the six pick in the draft, 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.000 which we then traded down to get the third pick 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.760 in the draft. We turned into Victor Victor Masa and 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:21.920 Dustin Fowler, so we gave up hand in Carrasco. We're 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:26.800 both in their thirties. For showy Otani, who is a 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:30.440 top ten Dynasty piece. To me, I think I haven't. 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:33.040 I think I have been twenty four. But he is 0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:35.080 a piece that he's twenty one years old and he's 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:39.240 going to be He is a dominant piece that will 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:41.840 last for a long time. So even when you get 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:43.920 a team that looks like it's in dominant shape, you're 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:46.440 always looking for the You're always looking for the value. 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:49.360 You're always looking for that advantage. In that way, there's 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:51.520 no sleep. Yeah, it doesn't end. It doesn't enny. When 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:54.520 it comes to Dynasty. It's all an It's like, oh, 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:57.040 you can make trades all year round. Yes, there's there's 0:13:57.160 --> 0:14:00.240 one week after well, no, the trade doesn't on is 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:04.040 September one, and then from September one to the last two, 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:06.720 a week after the last out of the World Series 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:11.040 is a very quiet and boring time. But other than that, 0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:14.400 let's find the match, let's find the fit. I'm in 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:16.920 negotiations in another Dynasty league which I was fortunate enough 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.080 to win last year and win the year before um 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:21.440 with some great industry people where I may be moving 0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:24.200 Nelson Cruise, and I may be moving Nelson Cruise today 0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:27.320 for an interesting package of young players, because I don't 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:28.920 I want to get out before. I always want to. 0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:30.280 You always want to get out before. You want to 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:32.240 get as much value as you can and then move 0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:35.040 him to get as much value as you can sell 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:37.120 kind of not when they're at the peak, but before 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:39.120 like the floor kind of just like falls out from 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.240 beneath Nelson Cruise. And now you know he's moving over 0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:43.840 from Seattle where he was great the past couple of years. 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:46.000 He's going over in Minnesota. You saw some of the 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:50.440 batting average start to fall out last year, so you 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:52.960 know there is a chance. You know, he's pushing forty 0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:55.640 years old. Like look, I'm gonna get he's gonna hit 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:58.280 thirty six some runs. He's gonnabot to fifty five. He's 0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:00.800 got one more good year. I'm going get Luke Weaver, 0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:03.800 who is a Bilow. You know, Sarahceist wrote an interesting 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:06.480 article about him. Today. A new scenery goes over to 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.560 Arizona and he's losing her molina and losing out of 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:12.840 your molina is actually a pretty damn big deal because 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:15.640 he's the best catcher that there's ever been at handling 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.720 pitchers and handling the strike zone. And you know who 0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:20.240 he does get to work with is the guy who 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:24.240 was learning under Carson Kelly. Look at this guy, this guy. 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:28.760 This one thing that I want to hit on before 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:32.200 the break is you've touched on starting pitching a little bit. 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.120 How you wanna when you're doing the draft, specifically start 0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:39.640 up draft? Um? You want to get young hitters, So 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:41.920 I assume when you accentuate the word young hitters that 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:44.120 means you're not necessarily going after young you're going after 0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:46.640 some of the older guys. I noticed your first starting 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:49.200 pitcher is Jacob deGrom, who's ranked all the way down 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:54.400 at nineteen. So how how does one attack starting pitching 0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:58.800 when it comes to dynasty. How much of the time 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:01.320 we got before the bread we we got about a 0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:03.280 minute and a half. You can give us like a 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:05.120 little tease and we'll come back with it. You know, 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:07.960 pitching is you gotta get pitching, um, but you've got 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:09.720 to be smart about where you get your pitching. So 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:11.960 I just fly for pitching. I mean, we all know 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:14.120 what it is baseball, so I'm always looking. I I 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.640 this Dynasty League one which come in with John Halp 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:21.240 and Joel Hanard, Rich Wilson, Tim McLeod, myself, Alex Cushing, 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.440 great dynasty player. I just traded Max Scherzer last week 0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:28.120 and after the break, I'll tell you what I got good. 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:32.160 That's why he is a professional. Here, Ian Cohn, make 0:16:32.160 --> 0:16:34.680 sure you could follow his Fantasy Baseball Twitter account at 0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:37.840 ian con four, where you know you can find out 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:39.920 more about his his work that he does over at 0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:44.400 Rhoda Wire. Some more Dynasty contributions that I assume you're 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:47.160 going to be putting out. Yeah, I'm gonna keep I'm 0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:49.320 gonna keep the rankings going sort of every six to 0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:53.480 eight weeks. Not bad, not bad, not bad for you 0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:55.480 if your first shot. Yeah, but we'll talk more about 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:57.160 that when we come back eight four four four three 0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.400 six eight seven nine. If you have a dynasty or 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:03.280 keeper Uesian all in a four four four three six 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:04.879 eight seven nine. I do want to touch on a 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.520 few of like the top prospects for this year versus 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:10.800 like the long term Vladimir Guaro.
