MLB fantasy expert Fred Zinkie is joined this week by FanRag Sports baseball fantasy writer Al Melchior to take a closer look at the numbers for Nationals hitters Bryce Harper, Anthony Rendon, Daniel Murphy and Ryan Zimmerman and why you should avoid starting a pitcher that is going to face that stacked lineup. (:40) Miguel Sano led the American League in RBIs during the month of April but can he sustain this success throughout the season? (9:25) How will the Rockies playing-time situation change now that Ian Desmond is back and ready to play? (12:20) The crew also discuss if Michael Conforto and Jedd Gyorko should be owned in all leagues. (17:00) Zinkie and Melchior then break down which hot starting pitchers need to be picked up and who you still need to wait on to see if they can keep up their success. (25:15) Finally the guys discuss closers and if Bud Norris and Greg Holland can keep racking up the saves. (37:50)
