Episode 235 – Live With The Return Of Yancy Eaton

In this live broadcast, Dylan Higgins and Brad Johnson are joined by Yancy Eaton in a live recording to discuss the weirdness that is DFS in September, not worrying too hard about splits for right-handed batters, Trea Turner’s excellence, Starlin Castro’s strong home/road splits, not knowing how to pronounce Robert Gsellman’s name, Seth Lugo as a Statcast darling, the innings ceilings on picking Clayton Kershaw or Jose Fernandez, Yancy getting interested in football season, hinting at Brad’s upcoming fiction project, and The Daily Grind Invitational.

Suggested DFS picks worth attention for Friday, September 9: Jonathan Lucroy, Stephen Vogt, Evan Gattis, Salvador Perez, Mike Napoli, Miguel Cabrera, Freddie Freeman, Jose Abreu, Anthony Rizzo, Pedro Alvarez, Starlin Castro, Daniel Murphy, Logan Forsythe, Brandon Phillips, Ryan Schimpf, Nolan Arenado, Evan Longoria, Jose Ramirez, Kris Bryant, Adrian Beltre, Kyle Seager, Addison Russell, Brandon Crawford, Elvis Andrus, Troy Tulowitzki, Marcus Semien, Trea Turner, Andrew McCutchen, J.D. Martinez, Ender Inciarte, Ian Desmond, Khris Davis, the Rockies outfielders, Corey Dickerson, Seth Smith, Tanner Roark, Michael Fulmer, Danny Salazar, Jon Lester, Carlos Martinez, Madison Bumgarner, Yu Darvish, Hisashi Iwakuma, and Julio Teheran.
