RotoGraphs Audio: The Sleeper and the Bust 6/27/13

Episode 31
Today’s episode is a very special edition of The Sleeper and the Bust as it not only stars yours truly and features RotoGraphs editor Eno Sarris, but also ESPN’s Senior Fantasy Sports Analyst, the Talented Mr. Roto himself, Matthew Berry. We discuss his upcoming book Fantasy Life: The Outrageous, Uplifting, and Heartbreaking World of Fantasy Sports From the Guy Who’s Lived It available on July 16 and for pre-order now at FantasyLifeTheBook.com.

Don’t hesitate to direct pod-related correspondence to @mikepodhorzer or @enosarris on Twitter and tweet us any fantasy questions you have that we may answer on our next episode.

Intro by DJ Sinton (no, contrary to popular belief, I do not moonlight as a rap star)

Approximately 36 min of joyous analysis.

You Aren't a FanGraphs Member
It looks like you aren't yet a FanGraphs Member (or aren't logged in). We aren't mad, just disappointed.
We get it. You want to read this article. But before we let you get back to it, we'd like to point out a few of the good reasons why you should become a Member.
1. Ad Free viewing! We won't bug you with this ad, or any other.
2. Unlimited articles! Non-Members only get to read 10 free articles a month. Members never get cut off.
3. Dark mode and Classic mode!
4. Custom player page dashboards! Choose the player cards you want, in the order you want them.
5. One-click data exports! Export our projections and leaderboards for your personal projects.
6. Remove the photos on the home page! (Honestly, this doesn't sound so great to us, but some people wanted it, and we like to give our Members what they want.)
7. Even more Steamer projections! We have handedness, percentile, and context neutral projections available for Members only.
8. Get FanGraphs Walk-Off, a customized year end review! Find out exactly how you used FanGraphs this year, and how that compares to other Members. Don't be a victim of FOMO.
9. A weekly mailbag column, exclusively for Members.
10. Help support FanGraphs and our entire staff! Our Members provide us with critical resources to improve the site and deliver new features!
We hope you'll consider a Membership today, for yourself or as a gift! And we realize this has been an awfully long sales pitch, so we've also removed all the other ads in this article. We didn't want to overdo it.

Ugh….the untalented mr. windbag? If I wanted to listen to this clown I’d still be subscribed to “the 06020” and believe in the never aptly-named Wandy Line. Please get better guests than this if you are going outside FG/RG. I listen to this podcast to AVOID “experts” like Matthew Berry.
