2020 All-Stars

I’m not going to sugarcoat this one. We slapped this episode together pretty quickly. I’m heading off to Israel in 4 hours, so apologies for the curtness. However, we still have 45 minutes of podcasting goodness for you. Enjoy!

So Corey Kluber might be good. We chat about his game for a moment and then discuss his place among the pantheon of other elite pitchers. This leads into some concerns we have about David Price. We discuss some potential fantasy trades with him and what we think of his value. Continuing a pitcher discussion, we move to a former 2020 All-Star favorite, Yordano Ventura. Is he better than some “Whack or Back”-type guys?

The Closerpocalypse is upon us. Neftali Feliz looks like he is out. Shawn Tolleson seems to be the man and the guys behind the guy is Tanner Scheppers and Keone Kela. The other guys that we are worried about are the Axman and Addison Reed. Listen to hear what we say about their replacements.

Finally, we scrape the bottom of the barrel in the middle infield.

So I, David, was in Israel last week, so we missed a week. Deep-league discussion? It gets no deeper than this. Pat Venditte! Switch pitcher for the Oakland Athletics. Is he fantasy relevant? Not really. But is it awesome that he can pitch from both sides? You need to listen to find out.

We go into homer-mode and discuss the Dodgers and specifically Yasiel Puig’s return to the Dodger lineup and how that affects the rest of the guys in the Dodgers outfield. On the other hand, we chat about what the Jorge Soler injury does to the Cubs outfield. Looks like the Cubs are also experimenting with Kris Bryant in the outfield. More generally speaking, the Cubs strikeout a lot and we generally go into a rant about strikeout rates and guys that strike out a lot.

There are a lot of young pitchers making some noise lately. We discuss them and rank them all relative to each other. Sticking with pitchers, we discuss the Closerpocalypse in Seattle and Tampa Bay.
