00:00Let's go by the numbers here and let's talk about some name brand players that are doing some name
00:05brand things. Let's talk. Let's start in Chicago. Kyle Tucker, big deal, huh? Let's go.
00:10Yeah. A big deal. Like the first couple of games weren't the best, but
00:14if you look here for two for 16 for Kyle Tucker over his first four games after that,
00:19things got better. He was then 10 for 18 with four homers and OPS over 1300, not too shabby,
00:25but this is more of a discussion about April. You know, you, you spend weeks, if not months
00:32preparing for your fantasy league, you have your fantasy draft, and then somebody goes,
00:36Oh, for eight or, you know, two for 16 and fancy managers start to freak out. Now would they freak
00:41out if this was the middle of July? No, of course not. Do they freak out because it's the first week
00:46of April? Yes. Yes they do. Uh, because it's the first thing they've seen. So the sky is always
00:51falling. Most of the time, the guys will play to the back of their baseball cards. Sometimes
00:54there are situations and we're going to get into one this hour where I am concerned about
00:59everything that I see from player body language, performance, productivity, all of that.
01:03But when you have these great players like Kyle Tucker, you have to be patient. And even the
01:06mediocre players, you gotta be a little bit more patient. You can't just start cutting guys left
01:10and right. If you want to bench guys that are good enough to bad starts. Okay, fine.
01:15But be very careful about the reactionary moves that you make in April map, because we see it
01:19every year. People have these knee jerk reactions. Next thing you know, they drop a player that they
01:24were really high on after one bad start or one bad week at the plate. And they end up regretting
01:29it because somebody else scoops them up and they end up having the year that they thought that they
01:33would, but on somebody else's team.
