RotoRob Fantasy Baseball Weekly Podcast — heard every Thursday at 9 p.m. EST on Blogtalkradio — was back in action as RotoRob was again joined by Tim McLeod of Pattonandco.com. The good news was we enjoyed a technical glitch-free show for once, so it was nothing but pure Fantasy baseball talk without the griping about BTR!

Among the topics we passed judgment on:

• Carlos Carrasco was pulled from his last start because of stiffness, but it’s not a issue of concern.
• Tim will soon be asking for weather forecasts from us.
• A word from our sponsor, SideLeague.
• Since 2012, Giancarlo Stanton — by himself — has as many or more 450-foot or longer dingers than three teams have hit in total.
• We were impressed by Masahiro Tanaka shutting down a powerful Detroit lineup.
• What’s wrong with Julio Teheran?
• Vanderbilt players will figure prominently in the first round of the 2015 MLB Draft.
• We try to calculate how hard it would be to match Casey Stengel’s feat of winning 3,000 games as a manager.
• Will we see Blake Swihart at some point in the second half?

Now it’s your turn. Let us know in the comments below what you thought of our Fantasy baseball chit chat.

It seems we can finally use the words “healthy” and “Brian Roberts” in the same sentence. It has been a long time coming. In his past seven starts, Roberts has driven in eight runs, capped off by a grand slam Friday against the A’s. Finding help in those counting categories out of the middle-infield is never an easy task and Roberts should provide just that heading into September. more
