Get Opening Day started with a brand new episode of The Cycle, where Ryan Wormeli (@RyanWarmly) and Mike Maher (@mikemaher) answer the 10 BIGGEST fantasy baseball questions for the 2025 MLB season!

How does Los Angeles Dodgers SP/DH Shohei Ohtani follow-up his historic 2024 season in his return to pitching? Will Pittsburgh Pirates SP Paul Skenes be worth the first-round pick managers spent in fantasy drafts? Plus, will any speedster break 50 stolen bases this year?

The Pros answer the call before regular season baseball officially begins.
