00:00All right, let's hit the shortstop position in fantasy this year, a little bit different
00:03than in years past.
00:04Remember, Trey Turner, a couple years ago, number one overall pick in fantasy.
00:07Bobby Witt is now taking over the number one shortstop position.
00:11Did you find it, this draft season, to be as deep as in years past?
00:15It was always the premium position.
00:17It feels like it slipped a little bit.
00:18No, yeah, no, shortstop is pretty deep.
00:23I, you know, when you mentioned Trey Turner, I was like, I keep thinking about Trey Turner
00:28being the number one pick, because I remember getting him that year, and he wasn't very
00:33good that year.
00:35So it still hurts a little bit, but I think shortstop is pretty deep still.
00:40You know, Bobby Witt Jr., as you mentioned, Elie DeLaCruz, who I mentioned, Gunnar Henderson
00:45has shortstop eligibility, Lynn Doerr, Mookie Betts even has shortstop eligibility, Trey
00:51Turner, as we mentioned, O'Neal Cruz, C.J. Abrams, Corey Seeger, Willie Adamas, who had
00:58a great year last year, went to San Francisco, we'll see how that goes, Ezekiel Tovar, you
01:03know, and the list goes on.
01:04There's a good, like, 15 to 20 shortstops that most people should feel comfortable drafting.
01:11As a, you know, as I say on Ras Ball, I really like drafting from a strong position, like,
01:18you know, some people talk about position scarcity.
01:21I like to talk about how, like, if you have, like, shortstops are deep and they're good,
01:26you should have one, if not two of them, like, as in, like, a shortstop and a MI being your
01:33shortstop, because, like, you know, if they have good shortstops, you want them.
01:38You don't want to try and, you know, do bargain basement shortstops and have, like, oh, you
01:43know, like, one guy has Elie DeLaCruz in your league, and then you have, you know, Trevor
01:49Story or something.
01:49It's like, you know, it's not going to work, man.
01:51Your team's not going to be very good.
01:56Great.
01:56You got about a minute left here.
01:58Mets and Yankees here.
02:00Both make the playoffs.
02:01One makes the playoffs.
02:02Neither makes the playoffs.
02:03Going to be a bad season in Gotham?
02:07Yeah, you know, I'm a little bit worried about what the Mets did with the pitching and the
02:13Yankees.
02:14I, you know, their pitching staffs aren't very good.
02:16I know the Yankees brought in Freed.
02:18They lost Cole.
02:20I don't know.
02:20And the Mets, like, they brought in Soto, obviously, who I love, but I don't know if they
02:26have the arms, really.
02:27So, yeah, I would be going for Braves and Baltimore in those respective divisions.
02:35I don't really love the Yankees right now.
