Description

The Twins are still very alive in the playoff race and they also have some of the most interesting players when it comes to fantasy baseball. MLB.com's Matthew Leach and fantasy expert Fred Zinkie break down how you should play the power-hitting Miguel Sano and speedy outfielder Byron Buxton. Manny Machado and Josh Donaldson have rebounded from a couple of bad first halves, but where do they rank when thinking about the 2018 season? (5:05) Curtis Granderson has moved from the Mets to a contending team, but how much playing time should he expect to get in the Dodgers outfield? (10:50) Leach and Zinkie also discuss what to do with some big name starting pitchers (12:50) and playoff-contending bullpens in St. Louis, Los Angeles, Kansas City and Colorado. (23:52) Later, Yahoo Sports fantasy writer Scott Pianowski joins Fred Zinkie on the show to break down if rookie Rhys Hoskins is worth a pickup as an outfielder, what ace will be drafted first in 2018 and who has better fantasy value between Nolan Arenado and Chris Sale.
