It’s time for a one-month fantasy baseball check-up, and we’re digging into what actually matters, and what doesn’t, after April. In this episode, we take a step back and look at the early trends shaping the season, separating real concerns from small-sample noise so you don’t overreact.

We kick things off with a lighthearted look at a certain AL team hitting the reset button and why, based on our early league success, we might be overqualified to step in. Then we shift to some intriguing young pitching that Grey hasn’t been able to stop talking about all season. We are breaking down a couple of high-upside arms making noise in the minors and what their early performances could mean for fantasy managers if opportunities open up.

Next up, we move on to our “Month Into the Season” checkup: a group of notable hitters who surprisingly started the year with little to no power. We dig into the numbers to figure out who’s just been unlucky and who might have something more concerning going on. The goal: help you decide where to stay patient and where to start adjusting expectations.
We also highlight a handful of struggling bats who’ve been tough to roster so far, breaking down whether they’re buy-low candidates or players you might need to move on from depending on league depth.

On the pitching side, it’s bullpen chaos season. Injuries and role changes have opened up save opportunities across multiple teams, so we walk through the evolving closer situations and identify where you can find value on the wire without overcommitting. We wrap with a quick-hit waiver wire segment featuring under-the-radar hitters getting playing time, plus a slate of streamers to help you maximize matchups in the coming week.
