These podcasts are fantastic!
I’m a big fan of the content! I especially love when the dog comes in! It is not distracting at all. Not even a little bit.
Thanks. Family came home toward the end which is what got the dogs going
Good point about the Nationals hitters being underrated because of their 2013. Not because I own Rendon, but I believe he’s grossly underrated because of his limited professional experience. He never had that one *special* minor league season for the hype to build. The only real knock was the injuries and at least last year, proved he could play everyday for a complete season. I’m excited to see what his ultimate ceiling is as a fantasy player.
Can you cover Tyson Ross in Tuesday’s pod? Over the second half of last year he posted the 7th best K/9 (9.56) and 5th best GB% (57.3%) of all qualifying starters.
He’s absolutely on the list to discuss
Can you discuss whether Chris Tillman will take the next step this season? His peripherals improved last season though his ERA went the wrong direction.
I need to correct your discussion in that podcast about Bartolo Colon having pitched his full carreer in the American League so far. You should remember that Bartolo Colon has pitched a few months for the Montréal Expos (a National League team) about than 10 years ago. The Expos have traded Grady Sizemore + Brandon Phillips + Cliff Lee to the Cleveland Indians to get him in their very last playoff race! Let’s say that the Cleveland Indians got more from the Expos for Colon than what the Brewers gave them to get C.C. Sabathia!
Ack! I forgot about that horrible deal
Great Podcast guys! I know this is a little late, but it is Mets related. I’m in a new 12-team head-to-head points league with 23-man rosters, 7 bench spots, and 8 keepers. How early is too early to take Matt Harvey? I can stash him for next season, or trade him late in a playoff push to someone looking for a keeper in 2015. Round 20 too soon?
