    Ivy Insights

    The Launch Angle podcast is a highly informative and entertaining show for fantasy baseball fans. The hosts, Van Lee, Jeff Zimmerman, and Rob Silver, bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. One of the best aspects of this podcast is the diverse perspectives offered by the hosts. Each has their own unique take on players and team situations, which provides listeners with a well-rounded view of the fantasy landscape. Additionally, the show is packed with in-depth analysis and statistics to back up their opinions, making it a valuable resource for serious fantasy players. The chemistry between the hosts is evident, creating an enjoyable listening experience.

    While there are many positives to The Launch Angle podcast, there are also some drawbacks. Some listeners have noted that since the departure of Van's co-host Van earlier episodes had tighter shows with better organization and editing. Since his departure and the introduction of new host Rob Silver, some episodes have been longer and more rambley. This can make it challenging to stay engaged throughout the entire episode. Furthermore, while the audio quality isn't terrible, it is mentioned that there has been a step back in overall quality.

    In conclusion, The Launch Angle podcast is a top-notch resource for fantasy baseball fans looking for serious analysis and insights from experienced players in the industry. While there may be some areas for improvement in terms of organization and editing, the wealth of information provided by the hosts makes this show a must-listen for any fantasy player. Whether you're seeking advice on player evaluations or draft strategies, or simply enjoy witty baseball banter, The Launch Angle has something to offer everyone interested in fantasy baseball.

We start off the show talking about Jeff's Mining The News article on Fangraphs.com. Here is an excerpt from it: " On the infield, there will be no more shifts. Teams must have at least two fielders stationed on each side of second base, standing on the dirt. But one overlooked rule: Infielders can actually switch positions between innings (though not during innings). So say an opposing team had two lefties due up. The Tigers could conceivably move Javier Báez to second base, move Jonathan Schoop from second to third and move Nick Maton from third to short. That would allow the rangy Báez to patrol the infield against lefty hitter." We talk about how that can impact player eligibility in season and for next year as well.
