00:00let's start off with catcher and yes there is a catcher back in the first two rounds of fantasy
00:04baseball i i don't recall the last time that there was a catcher drafted this high in fantasy but is
00:10this like the tight end equivalent in fantasy football maybe so cal raleigh's adp is 16 going
00:17into the season you don't see that very often that's followed by william contraris of milwaukee
00:23shay langoliers who got off to that fantastic start last year uh then it gets a little dicey
00:27here ben rice youngster hunter goodman is now on the map inside the top 100 salvador perez at 101
00:34and then uh the one player who seems to be getting the most steam here in this early part of
00:39february
00:40drake baldwin of the atlanta braves a lot of folks feel george he's just going to steal that position
00:45and run with it at some point this year you know i'll stop a ball when they are you know
00:50they just
00:51signed jonah heim he can play sean murphy's still there i mean atlanta went healthy has a lot of
00:55good catchers i imagine one's going to get dealt eventually here not baldwin uh let me ask you a
01:00question do you still play in leagues with two catchers do i there's one yeah there's one i don't
01:08know why i hate two catcher leagues right i hate two catcher leagues they're just i mean even a 10
01:13team
01:13league there aren't 20 catchers here my philosophy of catches was always in two teamers i want one who's
01:18not going to kill me the other one i don't care i'll take a minor league who might get cold
01:21up a great
01:22minor league who might get cold up during the year because i don't want them to hurt me you know
01:25that sort of thing here cal raleigh by the way if you're taking him the second round the power is
01:29going to be there he's at three straight years of obviously at 60 uh home runs last year 34 and
01:3330
01:33so you're getting 30 plus home runs but you're getting an average it's probably going to hurt
01:37you know so it's probably to take a player in a second round i can find power average can be
01:41a
01:41problem there he's not going to add anything to stolen bases here so i'm not going to have rally in
01:44any
01:45leagues i'm just not i tend to wait on catcher one thing i will say about catchers now
01:49there are a lot of them right well we're not desperate anymore i can wait to take the 10th
01:55best catcher craig and i'll be fine i don't want anybody on that list that top seven list i'll take
01:59any of them any one of them i'll be happy there are a couple of guys after that here i
02:02said i like
02:02baldwin i'd love to have rally won up contraria sure langley every athletic in that ballpark by the
02:08way i'll take ben rice got hurt a little bit this week with the signing of goldsmith they've already
02:12said goldman's gonna play he's gonna play something including get some righties that means rice
02:16gonna sit some now right that we don't want him to sit there so that annoyed me a little bit
02:20as
02:20far as rice and the yankees are concerned there but a catcher like i said i hate two catcher leagues
02:25uh but catcher is definitely deeper than it's been i man craig it's been a long time since i'm like
02:31i'll take the 10th best catcher i'm fine i i do think there's a huge disparity between cal raleigh and
02:36everybody else so i i mean look if raleigh doesn't if he only hits 47 and doesn't hit 60 he's
02:43still
02:43well worth that adp of 16 but i think that most people feel there's even more regression coming
02:48for raleigh this season so we will see after his 60 home run season a year ago
