Fantasy Baseball Podcast: Player Rater Says

Grey and B_Don could talk about anything for an hour and a half. Well, we certainly put that to the test each year with our catcher rankings podcast. Why don’t Grey and I love catchers? I don’t know. Maybe something to do with the #10 catcher giving you 13 and 4 with a .254 average? Please, blog, may I have some more?

Grey and B_Don are back for the first podcast of 2023! We are taking a look at Grey’s top 20 players for 2023. A few things have changed since we did our mock 2 person draft after the end of the season, and B_Don asks Grey to explain himself. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Grey and B_Don (basically Grey couldn't find anyone better, yet) are back for the 2023 season! We're here to jump into the moves from the winter meetings. We start the podcast with Aaron Judge re-signing and some discussion about the different baseballs in use last season, and well, we rant a little bit... Then, we move on to the signings. We talk about Trea Turner heading to Philadelphia and the Bryce Harper injury news. The Rangers bolstered their pitching rotation with Jacob deGrom, Andrew Heaney, and Jake Odorizzi, but how interested are we in them? The Mets followed suit and added to their rotation with Justin Verlander and Jose Quintana. We go on to talk about the other signings including Jose Abreu, Xander Bogaerts, Willson Contreras, Mitch Haniger, Josh Bell, and the other meaningful-ish signings.

Grey and B_Don are back for one last planned podcast in 2022. What’s on the board to talk about? The top 25 for 2023 fantasy baseball 5×5 roto, redraft leagues. Grey and B_Don take turns picking through the top players until those top 25 are gone. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Grey and B_Don are back to go over the (almost) end of season player rater rankings. We discuss how the top 4 on the Player Rater aren’t necessarily the typical power and speed combo guys we’ve seen in recent years. What does that mean for 2023, if anything? Please, blog, may I have some more?

Grey and B_Don discuss what they would do if they caught the Pujols or Judge homerun ball. Surprise, surprise, we’re not giving it back for nothing. As we close out the season, we discuss some more of the 2nd half performers and where we might be looking to take them in 2023 drafts. Please, blog, may I have some more?

As Grey and B_Don sit down to talk about baseball on this week’s pod, we have but one question… WHAT IS GOING ON WITH JUAN SOTO? He’s approaching the Mendoza line for batting average in the 2nd half (while having an OBP close t0 .400, but still). Please, blog, may I have some more?

Grey and B_Don are back and maybe it’s time to start adjusting the award names until somebody other than Ohtani gets the MVP award. O, you think Aaron Judge should win it? Well, you’re wrong. After we ramble about Ohtani and Babe Ruth and other non-sense, we move on to a few of the call ups from this week and discuss what to expect this year and next out of Josh Jung, Triston Casas, Mark Vientos, and Ryne Nelson. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Grey and B_Don are back to discuss the last round of support for your fantasy teams that comes in the form of September call-ups. It may not be what it used to be, but there are still plenty of guys that are coming up that are interesting for this year and beyond. Please, blog, may I have some more?

I don’t know if this name is going to stick or not, but Grey has dubbed Corbin Carroll as C.C. SaBATia, and almost as importantly, he has been called up by the Diamondbacks. We get a sneak peek at the consensus #1 prospect in baseball and odds on favorite for the 2023 Rookie of the Year. Please, blog, may I have some more?
