OTW 206 - First FAAB of 2025

On The Wire

Adam and Kevin break down the weekly FAAB options you might consider.

Thairo Estrada will be out 4-8 weeks with a broken wrist. 
What’s the expectation for 2B in COL?

Kyle Mazardo scratched today with shoulder inflammation. How much stock were putting in his production in Cleveland prior?

Yu Darvish will start the season on the IL. Who fills the end of the SD rotation and are they worth faabing for in week 1?

Austin Wells expected to lead off for NYY vs RHP while Paul Goldschmidt may see time at the top of the line up vs LHP. What does that possibility do for the value of both these players?

Atlanta adds more OF “depth” by signing Alex Verdugo to a 1 year deal. Who does this signing impact the most in ATL? (Profar returned to ATL line up on Thursday)

ATL also brings back Craig Kimbrel on a minor-league deal. Any chance we see Kimbrel find his way back to the 9th for ATL later in the season?

So many forearm strains and elbow discomforts - Jared Jones, Drew Thorpe, Ryan Weathers, Luis Garcia (of the Astros), 

Royce Lewis will start on the IL and then Brooks Lee was held from Thursday’s game with back tightness. What’s your overall thoughts on the MIN infield by the time opening day rolls around?
