Plenty of prospects left in the minors for too long sometimes, and sometimes Grey gets left at home for the NBA Finals. This week on the Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, we talk about prospects that are heading up to the majors starting with the #1 prospect in baseball, Roman Anthony of the Red Sox.
The Mariners brought up Cole Young who was #29 on Itch’s June prospect rankings update. Kyle Teel was brought up by the White Sox, but can Grey get excited for a catcher? Ronny Mauricio is back on his way to New York and Grey is excited. Who is Ian Seymour and do you actually need to know? We wrap the show discussing a couple hot performers in Jo Adell and Chrisitan Encarnacion-Strand.

Hi B_Don
Because I have Lindor and Pena, and because Pena has been hot, I am trying to trade him a 10 team Yahoo points league and would appreciate your input.
My OF is:
LF: Ozuna and Yelich
CF: Buxton
RF: Butler and Carpenter
Do I need to upgrade by getting Andy Pages?
Another possibility is to try and get Kevin Gausman.
I am not sure if Pena is enough to get Gausman even though the trade Razz indicator says that Pena is worth 2x Gausman.
1. Would you try and get Pages?
2. Would you try and get Gausman with just Pena?
I could also offer Seth Lugo, Wacha, Olson or Warren?
I am reluctant to offer Peterson.
Of course, please feel free to recommend potential trades for Pena?
Thanks so much!!!
Hey Martin,
I don’t play in any Yahoo points, so I’m not exactly sure how points are configured, but it feels like you’re underplaying Pena’s season.
I’m assuming Pages has all 3 OF spots, which is nice, but I’d start higher (I’d also be willing to move Lindor). Not going to get Judge, but I’d start with Chourio or Wood and work your way down. Same with pitching if that’s more where your needs are. I think Gausman is the low end and I’d aim higher to start.
Pena’s been a top 30 hitter, I wouldn’t just move him to move him.
Thanks for making me! really appreciate this perspective!
Martin
