  • The Best in the Business

    Bubba is my favorite podcaster in the fantasy baseball space. He always brings on elite guests, brings forth important baseball content, and provides excellent analysis himself.

Benched with Bubba EP 838 - SS Preview with Brandon Waddell
Q: How are you approaching the closing market these days in these 12 team leagues?
I avoid overspending on closers, prefer value in RP1 without paying third or second round prices, and I look for opportunities to grab effective, lower-cost closers later while still building a strong core elsewhere.

The season was challenging, and after a hopeful 2024, it went from not good to terrible.
