Fantasy Baseball Recap and Injury Updates

Introduction

Frank Stamphill introduces the show alongside Scott White, noting Chris Towers is absent due to illness.

The episode will cover a weekend recap focusing on injuries and notable player performances.

Easter Weekend Discussions

Scott mentions he did not eat any Peeps but bought them for his wife, who enjoys them.

Frank humorously discusses the vocal minority of Peeps haters and shares his own moderate enjoyment of them.

They discuss butter beer-flavored Peeps that Frank got for his wife, reminiscing about its taste from Universal Studios.

Joe Adele's Remarkable Feat

Frank highlights Joe Adele's incredible performance with three home run robberies in one game, which is unprecedented in baseball history.

Despite being known for poor defense, Adele showcased remarkable skill by converting all three chances successfully.

The discussion includes a humorous take on Adele’s high-five with a fan after making the catch, emphasizing its accuracy and enthusiasm.

Impact of Home Run Robberies

The trio of players robbed (Cow Raleigh, Josh Naylor, JP Crawford) were all seeking their first home runs of the season; this adds context to their slow starts.

There’s speculation about how participation in the World Baseball Classic may be affecting players' early-season performance as they adjust back to MLB play.

Injury Updates: Hunter Brown

Hunter Brown has been placed on the IL due to a right shoulder strain retroactive to April 2nd; this marks his first time on the IL in his career.

He had thrown over 100 pitches on opening day and was performing well before being removed after approximately 79 pitches in his next start.

Astros Pitching Updates and Prospects

Hunter Brown's Situation

Discussion on Hunter Brown's early struggles, suggesting he may have been overwhelmed. Cody Bolton is set to start for the Astros on Monday, with Ryan Weiss potentially following as a bulk reliever.

Uncertainty surrounds Hunter Brown's shoulder strain; it could be mild or severe. The team is still assessing his condition, and there’s no clear timeline for his return.

Dana Brown, the team's president, expressed minimal concern about Brown's injury but acknowledged that player statements can often be misleading.

Kate Horton's Injury Concerns

Kate Horton has been placed on the IL due to a right forearm strain after showing discomfort during his last start. This follows a promising rookie season and solid spring training.

Forearm strains are generally more concerning than shoulder issues due to potential elbow complications. There is fear of a longer-term absence for Horton.

The Cubs are considering Colin Ray or Javier Assad to fill in for Horton, while Ben Brown might also be an option later in the season.

Potential Replacements and Sleeper Picks

Jackson Wiggins is highlighted as a top prospect who could make an impact later in the season if Horton's injury persists.

A list of week three sleeper pitchers includes Michael Waka, Jose Soriano, Grant Holmes, Mike Burrows, Ronaldo Lopez, Taj Bradley, Max Scherzer, Will Warren, Eric Lauer, and Jameson Tyone.

Grant Holmes stands out as an intriguing option after nearly throwing a no-hitter recently; despite control issues, he has shown potential against high-strikeout lineups like the Angels.

Baseball Insights and Player Updates

Player Performance and Streaming Options

Discussion on Joe Adele's performance, highlighting his potential to rob home runs but also noting his tendency to strike out frequently. Michael Wacha is mentioned as an exciting pickup due to a change in schedule.

Wacha's start was moved up after missing a turn due to illness, positioning him for two favorable matchups against Cleveland and the White Sox, making him a strong streaming option.

A mention of upcoming discussions about waiver wire pitchers, with 25 names identified that performed well over the weekend.

Emphasis on the distinction between short-term streaming options versus higher-upside long-term choices when selecting pitchers.

The conversation shifts towards Mookie Betts' injury status, with Dave Roberts expressing optimism about Betts missing less than the typical recovery time for a right oblique strain.

Injury Updates and Replacement Strategies

Commentary on how player injuries are often downplayed by coaches who may not have medical expertise, leading to overly optimistic timelines for recovery.

Miguel Rojas and Alex Freeland are noted as starting players in place of injured teammates. The importance of evaluating sleeper hitters week by week is emphasized.

Otto Lopez is highlighted as a potential pickup in shallower leagues alongside Xander Bogaerts and Ezekiel Tovar due to their favorable matchups this week.

Other notable names include Andres Jimenez and Josh Smith; however, there’s limited depth at shortstop in deeper leagues which complicates finding replacements for Betts.

Nassim Nunez is mentioned specifically for his speed advantage with five steals already recorded this season.

Deeper League Considerations

Discussion on the challenges of finding backup shortstops in deeper leagues where roster spots are more competitive; many viable options remain stashed or utilized elsewhere.

Personal anecdote regarding roster management in a shallow league where Mookie Betts' absence can be managed more easily compared to deeper formats.

Mention of Jose Fernandez potentially receiving increased playing time following Carlos Santana's groin injury during Sunday’s game, impacting lineup decisions moving forward.

Catcher Position Updates

Alejandro Kirk placed on the IL due to a left thumb fracture sustained from a foul tip; no timetable provided yet for his return.

Francisco Alvarez emerges as a strong replacement option given his recent performance; Carter Jensen also noted but faces disciplinary issues affecting playtime.

Outfield Injuries Impacting Lineup

Jordan Lawler placed on the IL with a fractured wrist expected to sideline him for six to eight weeks after initial negative x-rays were followed by further testing revealing the fracture.

D-Backs Roster Updates and Player Injuries

D-Backs Roster Decisions

Discussion on Lordess Gareel's imminent return to the D-Backs, suggesting they are waiting for him before calling up Ryan Walshman.

Confirmation that while Walshman's call-up seems unlikely, it is not impossible; he has performed well at AAA with a .290 batting average and a .436 on-base percentage.

Injury Updates: Juan Soto

Juan Soto suffered a minor calf strain, missing games over the weekend; optimism surrounds his potential avoidance of the IL.

Concerns about calf injuries being unpredictable; advice to monitor Soto's status closely before making lineup decisions.

Mike Trout's Hand Injury

Mike Trout left a game after being hit by a pitch; X-rays were negative but concerns remain due to swelling.

Comparison made between Trout’s situation and another player (Lawler), highlighting the need for caution despite no fractures detected.

Outfield Injury: South Freelik

South Freelik left Saturday's game with discomfort but was held out as a precaution without an oblique strain diagnosis.

Recommendation to consider benching Freelik in three outfielder leagues due to limited upside this week.

Emerging Talent: Jordan Walker

Jordan Walker had an impressive performance with three hits including a grand slam, showcasing strong offensive capabilities.

Notable improvements in Walker’s game include better strikeout rates and high exit velocity; he is seen as a potential breakout candidate.

Encouragement for fantasy players to pick up Walker given his availability (48% rostered), indicating significant upside.

Fantasy Baseball Insights and Player Analysis

Player Highlights: Rhyno Hearn and Cam Smith

Matt Walner, Garrett Mitchell, Jake Bowers, and Hazoos Sanchez discuss Rhyno Hearn's performance, noting he hit his third home run for the Pirates with 11 RBIs. He is currently 54% rostered.

Cam Smith also stands out after homering on Saturday and achieving a two-for-five performance with three RBIs and a steal on Sunday. His plate discipline looks good despite low exit velocities.

Comparisons Between Young Players

The speaker expresses a preference for Jordan Walker over Cam Smith but acknowledges Smith's potential as a young player with upside. Both are considered strong pickups across all formats.

Cam Smith has already stolen three bases this season, indicating improved sprint speed and potential for more running opportunities, which could enhance his overall profile.

Concerns About Ryan O'Hern

Despite impressive stats, Ryan O'Hern's pull air rate is concerningly low (below 5%). This raises questions about his long-term productivity despite previous success being attributed to playing time issues.

Evaluating Garrett Mitchell's Potential

Discussion shifts to Garrett Mitchell, who had a notable game with five RBIs in one match but struggles with high strikeout rates (close to 40%).

The speaker expresses skepticism about Mitchell’s ability to improve contact rates, suggesting limited hope for him compared to other discussed outfielders.

Waiver Wire Pitcher Recommendations

Transitioning into pitcher analysis, several names are highlighted as potential waiver wire targets: Parker Messick (five innings, one run), Braxton Ashcraft (six innings, one run), Mike Soroka (five innings, one run), Seth Lugo (five innings, two runs), and Emerson Hancock (six and two-thirds innings).

Ranking of Pitchers Based on Performance

The discussion includes ranking these pitchers based on their recent performances. Parker Messick is ranked first due to consistent outings followed by Braxton Ashcraft.

Emerson Hancock ranks third; despite some inconsistencies in prior games against the Angels, he shows promise due to significant whiff rates and new pitch strategies that could lead to better outcomes moving forward.

Pitching Analysis and Rankings

Overview of Pitchers' Performance

The discussion begins with a critique of Emerson Hancock's performance, noting he was not the strongest member of the rotation last season and had a rough year. Concerns are raised about his reliability if he is on a roll.

Preference is expressed for pitchers Messick and Ashcraft over Hancock due to their promising starts this season, highlighting Ashcraft's ground ball skills and Messick's strong fastball.

Mike Soroka's fluctuating performance is analyzed; after an impressive first start with high strikeouts, his second start showed a significant drop in pitch effectiveness, suggesting inconsistency.

Ranking Emerging Pitchers

A new group of pitchers (50% to 65% rostered) is introduced, including Grant Holmes, Will Warren, Clay Holmes, and Kyle Harrison. Their recent performances are summarized as follows:

Grant Holmes: Six shutout innings against the D-backs.

Will Warren: Solid outing against the Marlins with two runs allowed.

Clay Holmes: Impressive seven shutout innings at the Giants.

Kyle Harrison: Good performance at the Royals.

The ranking order proposed by Scott places Grant Holmes first followed by Will Warren. Both are noted as sleeper picks for upcoming weeks.

Evaluating Strikeout Potential

Discussion continues on Kyle Harrison’s strikeout potential compared to Clay Holmes. Concerns about Holmes being a WHIP risk lead to favoring Harrison for upside despite past struggles.

Joey Cantillo’s strong performance against the Cubs is highlighted along with Reed Deppmers’ effective outing against the Mariners. Nick Martinez also receives mention for his solid start.

Insights on Lesser-Known Pitchers

Randy Vasquez’s increased velocity and whiff rate are discussed as potential indicators of future success despite previous mediocrity in performance metrics.

The conversation shifts back to Cantillo and Deppmers who show promise similar to Grant Holmes but from different pitching sides. Their ability to generate strikeouts while managing walks is emphasized.

Vasquez’s early-season swinging strike rate shows improvement but skepticism remains regarding his long-term viability based on historical data.

Marlins Matchup and Pitcher Insights

The speaker expresses uncertainty about the Marlins being a good matchup, noting their pesky nature and ability to put the ball in play frequently.

Pitcher Performances

Bryce Elder faced a tough loss against the D-backs, pitching seven innings with two unearned runs and eight strikeouts. Eduardo Rodriguez had a strong outing against the Braves, throwing seven shutout innings with three strikeouts but 11 whiffs on 90 pitches.

Evaluating Young Pitchers

Joe Boyle's performance is highlighted; he pitched five and one-third innings allowing three runs (two earned) with nine strikeouts. Concerns are raised about his upcoming matchup against the disciplined Cubs lineup.

Ranking Emerging Pitchers

The speaker ranks Boyle as the most exciting option among pitchers like E-Rod, Elder, and Rhett Louder due to his potential despite control issues. Boyle has been mixing in a sinker effectively.

Roster Considerations for Deeper Leagues

Boyle is compared to Joey Cantillo and Reed Dettmers regarding upside versus downside related to control. The speaker mentions placing bids for Rhett Louder and Bryce Elder in deeper leagues despite limited confidence in them.

Eduardo Rodriguez's Recent Performance

Mixed Feelings About E-Rod

Eduardo Rodriguez was added to several deeper leagues; while not overly excited about him, his recent performances have been solid against tough opponents like the Dodgers and Braves.

Changeup Effectiveness

E-Rod's increased use of his changeup this season has shown promise, contributing positively to his performance despite concerns over his career ERA exceeding five.

Emerging Names from Recent Starts

Notable Performances

Several lesser-known pitchers had standout starts: Stephen Matt, Slade-Siccone, Jeffrey Springs, Simeon Woods Richardson, Foster Griffin, Sean Burke, and Davis Martin all performed well over the weekend.

Interest in Foster Griffin

Among these names, Foster Griffin stands out due to his diverse pitch arsenal (seven different pitches), which can create success even if individual pitch quality isn't high.

Pitch Mix Adjustments

Slade-Ziccone's Changes

Slade Ziccone adjusted his pitch mix by utilizing more cutters and sweepers while increasing fastball velocity by 1.2 mph. He achieved 14 whiffs against a strong Cubs lineup.

Concerns Over Struggling Pitchers

Dropping Underperforming Players

Discussion arises around dropping struggling pitchers Rokie Sasaki and Jacob Lopez due to poor performances; context matters based on league size when making such decisions.

Conclusion on League Context

In smaller leagues (10 or 12 teams), it’s advisable to drop underperforming players like Sasaki or Lopez since they may not be picked up again.

Discussion on Player Performance and Roster Decisions

Evaluating Player Starts

The speaker reflects on a player's initial performance, suggesting that even minor signs of improvement in their second start indicate potential value, especially in deeper leagues.

Lopez is highlighted for his strikeout potential, noting an increase in velocity by 1.5 mph compared to his first start.

Walk issues are discussed as a significant concern for Lopez; however, this may be attributed to an abbreviated spring training affecting his readiness.

Waiver Wire Considerations

The speaker expresses hesitation about dropping Lopez for other players like Elder or Rodriguez due to the depth of the league.

Miguel Vargas is mentioned as a player off to a good start with notable stats including three stolen bases and solid plate discipline but lacking hard contact metrics.

Roster Management Insights

Clarification is made regarding name confusion between Bryce Eldridge and Bryce Elder, emphasizing the importance of accurate player references.

Despite Vargas's decent start, the speaker argues he may not be a must-roster player due to poor exit velocities and competition at first/third base positions.

Alternative Corner Infield Options

The discussion shifts to whether Vargas should replace established players like Torkelson or Bohm; the consensus leans towards keeping current rostered players over adding Vargas.

Max Muncie from the Athletics is noted for having a strong weekend performance but raises concerns about high strikeout rates despite hitting well early in the season.

Emerging Players and Future Potential

Mark Vientos's recent performances are highlighted with multiple hits over several games, indicating potential value as he benefits from injuries within his team lineup.

Concerns about Muncie's plate discipline returning to previous poor levels are raised; while he has power potential, there’s skepticism about his long-term viability on rosters right now.

The speaker acknowledges Pajas's small sample size but notes significant improvements in strikeout rate and overall offensive production compared to past seasons.

Analysis of Player Performance and Trade Considerations

Evaluating Paa's Current Performance

The speaker expresses cautious optimism about Paa's performance, noting that while he had a strong start last year, his second half was disappointing, leading to being benched in the postseason.

Advises against overthinking Paa's current success; suggests playing him but also considering trading him if he can be valued as a top 20 outfielder despite doubts about his long-term consistency.

Highlights that Paa is likely a top 36 outfielder, emphasizing the importance of his pull rate for maximizing power potential since he doesn't consistently hit with high exit velocities.

Lineup Positioning and Opportunities

Notes that due to Mookie Betts' injury, Paa may move up in the batting order, increasing his RBI opportunities by batting behind strong hitters like Tucker and Freeman.

Discusses lineup dynamics and potential changes Dave Roberts might make regarding left-handed batters at the top of the lineup.
