The Red Sox made a trade for Eduardo Nunez in an attempt to plug a hole at third base as they chase the AL pennant. MLB.com's Matthew Leach and fantasy expert Fred Zinkie take a closer look at Boston's hot-corner options now that Nunez and top prospect Rafael Devers have been added to the team. (:40) Whit Merrifield seems to be an undervalued second baseman that is available in most leagues, should he be picked up over more established players? (11:54) What should you do with Clayton Kershaw now that he is out for several weeks with another back injury and should he be the first pitcher picked in 2018 fantasy drafts? (17:45) Will Stephen Strasburg miss multiple starts after heading to the disabled list due to a nerve impingement? (23:05) Who are some ace options that could be picked up with Kershaw and Strasburg out? (26:30) Finally, Yahoo! fantasy sports writer Dalton Del Don joins Fred Zinkie on the show to discuss strategy for leagues with an innings cap (37:20), where Sale, Scherzer and Kershaw should be drafted next season (42:15), where Willson Contreras ranks among the top catchers in the league (44:50) and if Gerardo Parra can maintain his current hot streak. (49:45)
