    2324 - Pitching issues and the solutions

    Take 10 with Tim – May 8, 2026 1.Well, the big news of the week was Tarik Skubal needing elbow surgery to remove loose bodies – in other words, bone chips. Provided that’s all there is, the recovery is likely three months. Add two to three more weeks for rehab, and maybe he’s back in September. Brutal blow for fantasy managers to lose their first-round pick. a.What’s the plan if you have Skubal or your team? b.Is this a reminder of the risk of using a first-round pick on a pitcher, or well, everybody gets hurt? c.Pitching injuries throughout the ranks have been tough this season – Skubal, Crochett, and Brown. Arguably, three of the big four will or have already missed considerable time. i.Just a bad year or is the list of elbow and shoulder injuries getting worse? 2.Carlos Rodon returns on Sunday against the Brewers. He was good, during his rehab/spring training, but are you ready to start him right away? 16.0 IP, 16K, 3.38 ERA 3.You commented on Sunday that Emilo Pagan was one of the few closers who was secure. Well, not anymore, as he’s got a hamstring pull and will miss 4 to 8 weeks. a.You’ve been doing the Closer Report for years. Have you ever seen anything like this? b.What’s the strategy for picking up guys and not burning through most of your FAAB? Or, should you just do it? c.Who’s the pickup here? 4.I know Carlos Correa is not what he used to be, but he was owned as middle infielder in a lot of leagues and will miss the rest of the season. Brice Matthews has not posted a high batting average, but has speed and power. Does he now get full-time at-bats and if so, are you in? 36% rostered in Fantrax Leagues. 5.Robby Snelling finally gets the call and starts tonight against the Nationals. I’m sure you’re going to start him, but give me a realistic stat line for his first start? a.Do you think he’s up for good? 6.Sung-Mun Song got the call for the Padres. Is he worth a pickup? 7.Play, Sit, or Drop? 1)Steven Kwan (OF, Cle, 94%) – .211 BA, 1 HR, 2 SB 2)Matt Chapman (3B, SF, 94%) - .234 BA, 1 HR, 0 SB 3)Justin Crawford (OF, Phil, 69%) - .264 BA, 0 HR, 3 SB 4)Ezequiel Tovar (SS, Col, 67%) - .186 BA, 1 HR, 2 SB 5)Alec Bohm (3B, Phi, 62%) - .159 BA, 1 HR, 0 SB 6)Colton Cowser (OF, Bal, 50%) - .179 BA, 0 HR, 0 SB – what happened to him? 7)Cedric Mullins (OF, TB, 35%) - .139 BA, 2 HR, 6 SB – platoon player 8.What hitter are you targeting for this weekend’s FAAB 9.What pitcher are you targeting for this weekend’s FAAB?

    2323 - Waiver Wire - May 3, 2026

    Fantasy Baseball Live! – May 3, 2026 @ 3 pm Segments 1 and 2 – Review of the Weekend games Additional Comments: 1.Trey Gibson making his Major League debut today. Let’s see how he’s doing? 2.Jasson Dominguez got the call earlier this week with Giancarlos Stanton hitting the IL? Will he get enough at-bats to warrant picking up. a.The Yankees need to decide on what to do with Anthony Volpe on Monday. I’ve seen him play four games, I think. Whatever it was, he didn’t get a hit in any of them. Overall, he has played ok - .270 BA with a home run. Will the Yankees really mess with things and move Cabs off shortstop. He’s a better defender there than Volpe. 3.Ryan Helsley hits the IL with elbow inflammation. The initial diagnosis is no structural damage. How much would you be spending on Andrew Kittredge this weekend? 4.I started Zack Wheeler against the Marlins and held my breath. He was good – fastball still a bit off, but better (93.6 mph – off 0.7 mph). Last week, his velo was off by almost 2 mph. Still getting plenty of whiffs though. He’s got the Athletics this week in Philadelphia. Are you starting him? 5.The Red Sox get more bad news with their Ace going down with a sore shoulder. Reports indicate there are no structural damage. a.I guess this gives Tolle more of a run. Anybody else? 6.Brandon Woodruff hits the IL after a HUGE drop in velocity. Another shoulder issue. a.Anyone of interest in Milwaukee? i.Logan Henderson? Robert Gasser? Segment 3 – Waiver Wire Segment 4 – Closer Report Close

Additional Questions: 1.The Red Sox had enough and fired Alex Cora and a number of coaches. a.Can a shakeup of the Mets and Phillies be far behind? 2.Sal Stewart hit another home run and is now upto nine home runs and is hitting .303. He’s the early favorite for NL ROY. Is Carter Jenson leading in the AL – over Chase DeLauter and Murakami? 3.Konnor Griffin might be heating up as he had three hits on Friday with a home run and two more hits on Saturday. 4.After I trashed Okamoto, he’s hit home runs in back-to-back games. Is he finally heating up? 5.Zack Wheeler pitched ok on Saturday, but his fastball was off 1.5 mph. I don’t know about this one. He’s at Miami on Friday. Do you start him?

It’s proving prescient, and now the Yankees are using him more against lefties. Over/Under 35 home runs. 3.Speaking of the Yankees, Will Warren has looked very good so far this season. 2 wins, 11 K/9, 2.49 ERA, 3.68 xERA 4.The Phillies put Jhoan Duran on the IL with an oblique strain. Who gets the save opportunities in Philadelphia? 5.Gerrit Cole and Zach Wheeler have both had rehab games this week and they were “Ehh”. Who do you want the rest of the season? 6.If you take away Yamamoto, the rest of the best Japanese pitchers who have migrated to MLB haven’t been very good.
