In our 76th episode, Mike Couillard and Jeremy Brewer are joined by Taylor Corso of the Dynasty Baseball Pickups podcast and Prospects Live, to discuss the latest MLB moves and preview the NL West teams. For each team in the division, we each pick a player that for fantasy purposes we would buy, sell, and pick to click.
