The season is just getting started and things are already getting weird.

In this episode, we break down the early wave of MLB injuries and how they’re already impacting the standings—plus which teams might already be in trouble.

We also bring back Buttered, Plain or Burnt, run through some Real or Noise takes, dive into fantasy baseball targets and traps, and close it out with Series to Watch heading into the weekend.

If you're looking for MLB analysis, fantasy insight, and real conversations about what's actually happening across the league, this one’s packed.
