Description
MLB.com's Matthew Leach and fantasy expert Fred Zinkie discuss Mike Trout being forced out of action with a torn ligament in his left thumb, what it means to fantasy owners and how it affects the rest of the Angels lineup. Former MVP Dustin Pedroia is back on the disabled list, is he a guy that could be dropped in some leagues? (9:39) Rough starts from Todd Frazier, Addison Russell and Kyle Schwarber have been a cause for concern to many owners and they have been dropped in smaller leagues. (12:30) Next, the guys take a closer look at intriguing fantasy hitters like Trea Turner (18:30), Jonathan Villar (20:27) and Buster Posey (22:25). Starting pitchers that are discussed are the injured Danny Duffy (25:47), Danny Salazar being moved to the bullpen (27:05), strikeout machine Robbie Ray (28:00), Houston's Lance McCullers (29:28) and the Mets' Matt Harvey (32:34). Finally, the crew chat about the Padres closer candidates (36:30), relievers Tony Watson (38:00), Santiago Casilla and Raisel Iglesias. (38:52)
