Dynasty’s Child

The Boys are Back (in your ears)

Ben Diamond, Brady Childs, Nick Doran and Keaton O. DeRocher are back to talk baseball. Topics include the rollout of our 1st round of positional rankings and comments, beginning with catchers. If you listened to the last podcast and thought "Man, I could use some more Austin Barnes/Yasmani Grandal talk," we got you. (j/k there's more than just that). Plus, draft strategies for our TDGX2 league (20 team head to head league), including an on-air pick!
