1:03	Paul Sporer: Not sure, but a lotttt goes into that stuff, so maybe they’ve tried? Thankfully for someone like him, he’s got time. I imagine he’ll have many more great seasons that merit a cover

1:08	Matt W.: Does Sam Huff get a majority of the DH ab’s for at least the first half of the season?

1:10

Paul Sporer: I think he’ll have a chance. He’s C-eligible again and while I don’t think he’s a great catcher, I love a non-catching catcher for fantasy. Huff has some big time power that he can tap into, especially if he can improve his plate skills a little and cut down the whiffs. I’ve speculated on him in a couple 50-round leagues over the winter bc of that catcher eligibility and the departure of Garver

1:10	Pedro: Hi Paul. Thoughts on Eflin? I can keep at $15 in an AL only 5×5 league, but odds for a repeat seem long, Rays wont have Franco etc. Thanks

Thanks for coming out!

1:02	Paul Sporer: Hello everyone, thank you for coming out!!

1:02	Richard: Paul it’s 2024 not 2023!!!!

1:06	Paul Sporer: And I put the podcast pic on the tweet. Y’all, I’m losing my mind!! https://twitter.com/rotographs/status/1750231733855740220

1:06	Kyle: Was surprised to hear you used to smoke cigs- how’d you quit? Was it rough?

1:08

Paul Sporer: Some chest pain during softball was the turning point and did a pretty solid cold turkey run after that. Maybe 2-3 more in the following week, but otherwise done. Kinda crazy that I even started bc both my parents did/do and I never liked it. Just got caught up w/it as a freshman in college bc I liked the people who hung out in the smoking area, lol. The dumbest reason to start something like that, but thankfully got out before it had too much of a grip on me bc I know quitting is NOT easy
