Daily Fantasy Baseball Podcast: The Heat Check, Week 12

Is Jeff Samardzija getting unlucky with his poor results this year? And are the Kansas City Royals becoming a relevant offense for daily fantasy baseball?

How do we evaluate hitters as they transition into the major leagues from the minors? numberFire's Brandon Gdula and Jim Sannes go through their processes in that arena and discuss how they handle young players in their first few weeks at the next level. They also sort through big trends across the league for daily fantasy baseball, including Jeff Samardzija's strange season, the Kansas City Royals' improving offense, and Wilmer Flores' new role with the New York Mets.
