Take 10 with Tim – June 21, 20241. The injuries have been brutal of late. What is your advice for managers who have been kicked in the teeth multiple times this season with the loss of, just not fifth outfielder, put first, second, and third-round picks?2.    Mookie Betts will be out for 6 to 8 weeks with a fractured hand. This opens up an opportunity for a player to step up. Who do you think will seize this chance and make a significant impact?3.    Kyle Bradish will have Tommy John Surgery.  This should secure Cade Povich for the rest of the season.  How good can he be this year and in the future?4.    Bo Bichette hits the IL with a calf strain.  While it doesn’t sound too bad, that doesn’t seem to be the case this season.  Orelvis Martinez gets his chance.  Does he hit?  Does he stick?5.    Christian Encarnacion Strand might need season-ending surgery. Noelvi Marte should be finishing his 80-game suspension soon, as the Reds have played 75 games this year.  Is he the answer for playing time there.  Should fantasy managers be excited by the potential?6.    Anthony Rizzo is out for two months with a fractured arm.  Ben Rice has been promoted and will get the strong side of the platoon.  Should fantasy managers be excited about this?7.    Justin Verlander hits the IL with neck soreness.  It might not be too long, but the Astros are out of pitchers.  What will they do?  Is there anything of interest for fantasy managers?8.    Yimi Garcia hits the IL with a nerve issue in his elbow.  I’ve heard of no time frame for his return.  Who is the pickup for saves now in Toronto?9.    As expected, Mike Trout is healing slower than anticipated.  It’s really interesting that some people heal faster than others.  I remember when Albert Puljos broke his arm and spent the minimum time on the IL (15 days).  Trout appears to be on the opposite side of that equation.  Not a criticism, just an observation and a disappointment to his fantasy managers.  Thoughts?10.    Tyler Black has been promoted back to the Brewers.  Does he get enough playing time to be relevant for fantasy managers?11.    Johan Rojas was demoted earlier this week when the Phillies activated Trea Turner from the IL.  Were you surprised that Rojas got demoted?  They kept Mickey Moniak, Christian Pache, and David Dahl.  Sure, they were all of out options, but really?12.    The Mets are playing much better, and arguably, Christian Scott, their best pitcher, was sent back to the minors and continues to pitch well.  What am I missing?13.    What hitter are you targeting for this weekend’s FAAB?14.    What pitcher are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?
