He hasn’t been very good of late; hopefully, with treatment and rest, he can get back to the player we saw in the first half. 8.Drew Thorpe – Yikes! Mauled by the Mariners of all teams.

Fantasy Baseball Live – July 7, 2024 @ 3 pmSegments 1 and 2 – Review the weekend gamesAdditional Questions:1.Two guys we highlighted on Friday got the return call to the Majors. Parker Meadows and James Outman. Meadows hit a home run in his first at-bat.2.The Dodgers are giving Justin Wrobleski a spot start. He’s one of my fast-rising prospects (ranked in the 90s in the July Top 400 list). I’ll break him down.3.The Diamondbacks will call-up Wilber Diaz to pitch on Sunday. He’s been a pop-up kid this season. I will review him.4.Pablo Lopez – Sigh5.Clay Holmes blew another save on Friday in a big way (2 home runs) and hasn’t pitched well of late. If you are fearing a closer change, who would you speculate on?6.Ben Rice hit three home runs on Saturday in the Red Sox showdown.a.Gerrit Cole – wasn’t great. He got killed by soft fly balls and infield hits. Any worry?7.Brooks Lee with his first home run. It wasn’t a big blast, only 99.5 MPH off the bat. 8.Jose Miranda went 12 for 12 before making an out.

Fantasy Baseball Live – June 30, 2024Segments 1 and 2 – Review the games of the weekend.Additional Questions:1.Pablo Lopez with two strong starts but he has the Astros next. Do you start him?2.Heston Kjerstad hit a granny last night. Does he get enough at-bats to warrant rostering him?3.George Springer hit two home runs on Friday. One good night doesn’t turn this season around, but are you still running him out, or is he on your bench? Are you dropping him in one-year leagues? How about Dynasty Leagues?4.It was announced on Friday that James Wood will make his debut on Monday. I’m assuming the Nat’s did it to fill the seats on a slow, early summer Monday. Many rookie hitters have underperformed this season (particularly early after their callup), will he break that trend?5.Speaking of rookies, Jackson Chourio is getting better. He’s slashing .314/.355/.543 with four home runs in June and only striking out 17% of the time. Is he starting to figure things out?6.WOW, the Mets. What has been the differe
