FantasyPros - Fantasy Baseball Podcast show

Summary: We're joined by FantasyPros Correspondent Dan Marcus this week to recap the latest movement happening during the Winter Meetings starting with four big names in Chris Sale (0:55), Mark Melancon (5:07), Matt Holiday (6:43), and Carlos Beltran (7:34). Bobby discusses how potent the Astros lineup is with the trade, and gives possibly his biggest hot take of the year (8:28). We take a look at third base beginning with the top targets at the position (10:21) followed by some players Bobby and Dan expect to disappoint such as Jonathan Villar (12:42), Ryan Healy (14:42), Todd Frazier (16:51), and Miguel Sano (18:30). We then shift the focus to Jung-ho Kang (20:16), Matt Carpenter (20:46), and Nick Castellanos (23:19) who could have a solid 2017. Before getting into the first basemen, Bobby and Dan discuss a few infield prospects they're high on -- Joey Gallo (24:56), Javier Baez (28:25), and Jake Lamb (30:00). Changing over the the other side of the infield, first basemen had a down fantasy year in 2016 (30:55) and we're discussing how valuable Freddie Freeman is (31:25), how the studs at the position should bounce-back (33:05), we're naming some buy-low candidates (35:05) as well as some players who could be in store for a down year (39:55).
