Hey Paul and Justin. I won my league!!! Your podcast definitely helped me. Mid season I traded Witt for Judge (they needed avg steals, I needed HR/RBIs and pulled off a coup trading Macarthur for Machado – my trade partner was in second at the time and REALLY needed saves. I told him I have to way overcharge you because I was struggling with saves as well (I was rolling with Kimbrel and Macarthur), but he pulled the trigger. Your rec of Vlad was a good late second round pick for me, and later Volpe. I picked up Jackson Merril and Brenton Doyle, but honestly I don’t remmber if that was because of somethign I heard from you (but sure, take credit!). Oh, I had a terrible ERA , I drafte Bobby Miller and Eury Perez and I had Hunter Brown for that start where he gaveg up 9 runs .1 innings or something. So no thanks there but I persevered and I had some real gains in WHIP down the stretch really helped me get the W (you guys always remind us you can make gains in rates). THANKS GUYS. Love the show. But I am not on twitter thus I am here in the comments section lol.

Re: Brown…. yeah if only I didn’t FURY-drop him immediately after and my main rival pick him up right when he got good again lol.
