Episode 340: Mike's Tout Wars Draft + Starting Pitching Road Map
About this episode
The episode discusses the Tout Wars Mixed Draft strategy, focusing on avoiding starting pitchers and planning for pitching selections in fantasy baseball.
If you looked at the Tout Wars Mixed Draft, which took place on Tuesday, March 3rd, you may have noticed that your friendly neighborhood co-host avoided starting pitchers like they were germ-ridden toddlers, in effect conceding two of the ten roto categories. Why did he do this? What were his goals? Did he accomplish the plan to satisfaction? The first half of the pod covers these questions. Then, rather than try to exhaustively discuss the massive pool of starting pitchers, we look at how you might approach a draft in terms of planning an overall strategy for starting pitching. We do not really do any deep dives on individual players, but we have a lively discussion about how to game out your pitching selections within a draft. (Bonus break music for all of you 1970s ABC sitcom aficionados.)] (Double bonus: Listen to the very end to find out which one of us is, according to their spouse, giving "sexy grandpa.")
