The Fantasy Six Pack Hour: SP and RP Position Previews

03/09/16 • 82 min

We are back to finish up our position previews for the 2016 season by talking about the starting and relief pitchers. First we cover some of the latest news in baseball, including Carter Capps, Jhonny Peralta and Pedro Alvarez. For starting pitching, it is a very deep position, but one that the top tier players have improved some much over the past few years. How does that change our strategy going into 2016? Also cover hot topics such as is Jake Arrieta for real? Can the new San Fran duo bounce back this year? Can stars bouncback from injury plagued 2015's? Super Sophmores and prospects. Relief pitching is such a roulette wheel all season long, you just never seem to know where the ball is going to drop and the closer loses their job. This makes drafting this position very interesting to me. Also what to do about Aroldis Chapman? Can Glen Perkins return to form? And the one guy you think will ultimately close that isn't set to start the season that way. Of course we finish each position with our sleepers and busts. As always can call into the show and join in on the conversation or ask us any questions. If you don’t want to call in you can send us messages on Twitter @FantasySixPack and @AppleGarthAlgar.
