Description

It's waiver day in the fantasy baseball world, and while this weekend falls short of last Sunday's bounty, there are still players worth chasing in all formats. It all starts with Mike Tauchman, who should be a regular starter with Giancarlo Stanton on the IL. Spencer Howard will make his MLB debut on Sunday, and Rafael Montero is locked into the closer's role in Texas. DVR and Beller discuss all those players, and a whole lot more, on this episode of The Athletic Fantasy Baseball Podcast.Rundown1:54 Mike Tauchman in Line for a Regular Gig4:50 Time to Buy in on Todd Frazier7:39 Could Ben Gamel Lead Off?9:58 Rockies Home All Week — Interested in Matt Kemp or Chris Owings?14:17 Catcher Remains a Wasteland19:17 Spencer Howard Makes His Debut22:51 One More Mention for Tyler Mahle23:23 Going after Framber Valdez?26:27 Randy Dobnak and Streaming Against the Brewers28:49 Could Bryse Wilson Be Coming Soon?31:08 Rafael Montero is The Guy in Texas34:46 Ty Buttrey Takes Over in Los Angeles36:07 Would You Rather?: The Rafael Montero Edition41:20 Drops, Including Craig Kimbrel, Sean Doolittle, the Cardinals, and Some Prospects49:42 Listener QuestionsDVR's Adds and Drops ColumnFollow DVR on Twitter: @DerekVanRiperFollow Beller on Twitter: @MBeller
