41. Mid-Season Maneuvering

41. Mid-Season Maneuvering


In this episode we talk about.look, Balkers, I’m not going to lie, this episode goes deep into the nooks and crannies of some fantasy baseball trades that have happened in other leagues, that should happen in our league, and that might actually have happened on the air during this podcast.  We take stock of a couple of teams that should be making moves but haven’t yet. So if you are one of our casual listeners (no judgement), this episode may be a little different than some of the others.  We are, after all, a dynasty fantasy baseball league full of nerds who do this stupid stuff for fun.  Tim and Swag were sick and low energy, Lo-Key was rested and ready, and GK was stuck in traffic, so this one stands out for the fact that it isn’t quite like the others….and thats ok in my book. We’d also like to thank our sponsor Balker Beer for believing in us when no-one else did.
