Fantasy Baseball Live – October 1. 4pm
Wrapping up the season.

Segments 1 and 2 - Discuss the weekend games.
Additional Questions
1.The Giants parted ways with Gabe Kapler. Who else do you think is in trouble? Any GMs?
a.Yankees
i.Aaron Boone
ii.Brian Cashman
b.San Diego
i.Bob Melvin
ii.AJ Preller
c.Mets – Buck Showalter
d.Cardinals – Oliver Marmol
2.Did you see the check swing by Bryce Harper that Angel Hernandez called a swing? I mean, what a joke.
a.Why does this guy still have a job? If the answer is a strong union, then something has to change.
3.Why did the Rockies resign Charlie Blackmon? Sure, he slashed .284/.368/.446, but with eight home runs, he’s a singles hitter who really should be a DH. Kind of like Andrew Benintendi, and he has a job. But still, given where they are in the process, shouldn’t they let their kids play and build for the future? I don’t get it.
4.Two notable pitching performances yesterday – Do either interest you for next season? They should be cheap.
a.Frankie Montes – 1.1 IP, 2 hits, 0 ER, 1K/1BB
b.Chris Paddack – 3 IP, 2 hits, 0 ER, 4K/0BB. Total of five innings, striking out 8 and walking one. FB was 95.5 MPH, up 2.5 MPH from 2022. Better spin. Change-up still looks great.
5.On the other hand, Carlos Rodon had a start to forget.
a.0.0 IP, 6 hits, 8 ER, 2 BB. Brutal season. 6.85 ERA in 14 starts. Can he be this bad?
6.Felix Bautista is having TJS. A real bummer as he will likely not pitch in 2024.

Segment 3 – First round of the playoffs – Best 2 out of 3 – October 4 through 6
1.American League
a.Orioles (1) and Astros (2) - Byes
b.Rangers (6) vs. Twins (3)
c.Blue Jays (5) vs. Rays (4)
2.National League
a.Braves (1) and Dodgers (2) – Byes
b.Diamondbacks (6) vs. Brewers (3)
c.Marlins (5) vs. Phillies (4)
