Fantasy expert Fred Zinkie and MLB.com's Matthew Leach begin the show by taking a closer look at Rays speedster Mallex Smith and how he compares to Royals center fielder Lorenzo Cain. (:27) They also break down what to do with outfielders Jose Pirela, Jacoby Ellsbury and Aaron Hicks. (3:50) Gary Sanchez has returned to last year's form and now should be the No. 1 catcher in fantasy baseball over Buster Posey. (10:18) Lewis Brinson is an intriguing prospect that could add value if he receives regular playing time. (16:19) Rougned Odor and Kyle Seager are established players that are starting to come around and play well. (18:17) Mitch Haniger is a player that keeps collecting hits and should be picked up if he is available. (21:38) Next, Leach and Zinkie run down a long list of starting pitchers consisting of Buck Farmer (22:45), Sean Newcomb 24:24), Joe and Tyson Ross (26:31), Masahiro Tanaka (30:53) and the Rockies' starting staff (33:06). Need a closer? The crew takes a look at the numbers from Corey Knebel (37:07), Matt Albers (40:17), Felipe Rivero (42:15) and the Phillies bullpen. (43:35)
