The Fantasy Baseball Beat

Tigertown Talk with Jason Beck

Jason Beck joins The Fantasy Baseball Beat to discuss all things Detroit Tigers. Topics and players discussed:

• How good has Tarik Skubal been this year, and what's significant about the precautions being made regarding his health?
• Is Sawyer Gipson-Long an option in the rotation for the short term, or are there long-term possibilities here?
  • How big of an impact will Reese Olson and prospect Troy Melton have for the Tigers?
• How will the playing time sort itself out with Detroit's seemingly endless supply of useful players, such as:
  • Parker Meadows
  • Javier Báez
  • Trey Sweeney
  • Wenceel Pérez
  • Spencer Torkelson and Zach McKinstry
• What will the end of the bullpen look like with their rotation array of viable closers, such as Will Vest and Tommy Kahnle?
• Will the Tigers be aggressive at the trade deadline?
• What's the latest on Jackson Jobe and his injury timeline?
• How much fun is it to cover the Tigers?
• Which "lesser-known" prospect has caught Jason's eye?

After that, Chris and Dave examine their best and worst fantasy teams, reviewing the decisions they once made, the decisions they could have made, and the decisions they might make.

Finally, our Mental Health moment, where Chris and Dave discuss cognitive diffusion techniques.
