Show Notes

DVR and Al consider Zack Littell’s fantasy value in light of Shane McClanahan’s trip to the IL, Tyler Wells’ recent demotion, the returns of Brandon Woodruff and Brendan Rodgers and Randal Grichuk’s appeal for 12-team leagues. They also discuss an intriguing group of streamable pitchers and the recent changes in the Mariners’, White Sox’s, Royals’, Mets’ and Cardinals’ bullpens in the aftermath of the trade deadline.
