Fantasy Baseball Live – August 30, 2026 @ 3 pm
Segments 1 and 2 – Review the weekend games
Additional Topics
1.    Let’s look at the standings
2.    We have talked much about Jac Caglinone’s breakout - .285/.334/.499 with 23 home runs.  Nine home runs since July 1 and hitting .320.  Never walks  – 6% BB-Rate.
a.    Thoughts for him next season?
3.    Roman Anthony finally gets activated from the IL
4.    Juan Soto is activated from the IL on Saturday without a rehab – let’s see how that goes
5.    PCA is starting to separate himself from Ohtani with a huge game on Saturday – 4 for 6 with three home runs
6.    Walker Jenkins gets his first start and his first hit – 1 for 3 with a walk
7.    Bryce Miller is moving to the bullpen – which, I’m assuming means more starts for Kade Anderson.  Anderson with his second start of his career this week – ok – 4.1 IP, 3 hits, 2 ER, 3K/3BB.  The Major Leagues are a bit more challenging than Double-A.
a.    Will you continue to start him or play the matchups
