    Trader raves about Shane McClanahan's sick stuff and tells you why you need swoop now, plus more cream of the crop from the Tampa Rays insane system of fire arms being developed by pitching coach Kyle Snyder.

    Deep dive into the opening week madness with your boy Trader Joe and get in early on a few crazy rankings risers before it's too late. I call out a few pumpkins on this episode from week one to ditch before they rot on your doorstep.

Join ya boy for some 8D chess and some classic overreaction theater from fantasy baseball week one! Get them horses for your points leagues!
