Welcome to another episode of the FantaysPros Baseball Podcast. The show is hosted by our own Bobby Sylvester (@bobbyfantasypros). He’ll be interviewing featured experts and team correspondents who will provide insight throughout the baseball season.
In the third offseason episode, Jim Sannes of numberFire and host, Bobby Sylvester discuss the latest offseason news including the deal for Adam Eaton (1:32), Dexter Fowler’s new home with St. Louis (5:41) and what Aroldis Chapman’s signing means for Dellin Betances and the Yankees’ bullpen (9:31). There are still a few big name free agents that have yet to sign and they’re breaking down what Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion’s value may look like should they move (13:49). After covering the news, they break down the shortstop position beginning with Trevor Story (16:59), Xander Boegarts (20:05), Carlos Correa (21:07), Corey Seager (23:07), and Jean Segura (25:26). They then look at some players at the position who could be picked up a bit later in Troy Tulowitzki (27:55), Addison Russell (30:02), Aledmys Diaz (32:16), Dansby Swanson (33:54), and Brad Miller (35:59). Before they cover second base, they name their sleepers at the position (38:28) and two overpriced players (40:51). The discussion of second basemen begins with Robinson Cano (44:43), Rougned Odor (45:25), Dee Gordon (46:46), and Matt Carpenter (48:08). The show wraps up with a look at the second tier of players at the position – D.J. LeMahieu (52:31), and Javier Baez (53:43), before closing with Bobby and Jim’s sleepers (54:49).
