Episode notes

Today on the show we're taking a look at some late-round contributors for home runs and WHIP but first, which categories do the guys struggle with the most (2:30)? ... We're trying something new called Floor vs. Ceiling where we present you a player and present a realistic upside and downside. First up is David Dahl (7:02). Are the strikeouts too big of a concern? Do we overlook Coors Field too much in H2H points leagues? ... What's the range of outcomes for Jorge Polanco (12:55)? He seems relatively safe but nobody wants him. Would Adam rather have Gleyber Torres in the third round or Polanco in the 13th? ... Sean Manaea was great for five starts in 2019 but how realistic was it (17:00)? Is he a target at his current ADP? ... Justin Turner may be old but he still gets it done when he's on the field (22:00). Are we comfortable with him as a starting third baseman? ... Will the real Mike Foltynewicz please stand up (27:07)? ... We transition into our home run and WHIP sleepers (34:46). Khris Davis is the poster child but don't forget about names like Renato Nunez, Luke Voit, and Edwin Encarnacion. ... Who are some starting pitchers who can provide WHIP help later on (45:40). Everybody loves Rich Hill! ... Email us at fantasybaseball@cbsi.com.
