We were back in action this week… well, half of the team was, anyway. RotoRob was again out because of the NHL playoffs, but Tim McLeod returned, bringing back long-time guest host Tim Heaney of KFFL fame.

The two Tims had an engaging chat, discussing a cornucopia of Fantasy baseball goodness, including:

• Kevin Gausman’s major league debut.
• Tim M. bemoans cutting Rex Brothers just before he inherited the Rox closer job.
• The boys look at potential closers in waiting.
• Is it time to buy in on Christian Yelich?
• Mike Zunino’s recent struggles at Triple-A.

On Sunday, in his first start in a week, Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a double for just his third extra-base hit in 19 games and 40 at-bats this season. He also continued to flash his horrible strike zone judgment, fanning three times. more

In 44 2/3 IP he’s allowed 34 hits and 15 walks, and has chipped in with 47 strikeouts. With no definitive timetable established for Price’s return, Odorizzi could be in for a lengthy stay with the big league club. more
