Shane McClanahan gets call for Rays Apr 28, 2021

Show notes

Should we have bid more on Pavin Smith in MAIN? Does it matter, since we got Kyle Higashioka?

Smith has been leading off for over a week, looks pretty good

Alex Kirilloff batting fifth against righties, ninth against his first lefty Wednesday — has started six straight.

Clay’s boy, Shane McClanahan starting Thursday against the A’s.

The buzz surrounding Pedro Leon is mounting...

How much longer can Cleveland wait on Bobby Bradley, and to a lesser extent, Daniel Johnson?

Arizona somehow has by far the best wRC+ (155) in the majors against LHP, so this is another big test for Ryan Weathers.

Jazz Chisholm to the IL, probably would have graduated with two more games.

Cale Loken wants to know what our prediction is for Jazz in startup dynasty drafts next offseason

Joel Steen wants a breakdown of Marco Luciano, whom he just acquired in a trade

Dan Corrado: Any catcher targets/strategies in dynasty? What are we doing with Plesac — when’s the next dynasty update?

Michael Patrick: Is it time for a rebuilder to give up on Willy Adames, Clint Frazier, or Nick Senzel and give the roster spots to players with more upside? J.Mac also wanted to know what to do with Senzel…

The Ulysses Sect: Lux/Jazz/Solak ROS and long term?

Patrick: Could we see Tristan Casas in Boston this year?

Toolsy: Baddoo or Jarren Duran ROS?

Jason Jablonski - Sell on Rogers/Antone?
