Ep. 109: Vegas A’s, College Baseball/Draft Updates, Ohtani Trades

On this week’s episode of Long Gone, the boys talk about the Oakland Athletics becoming the Las Vegas Athletics now that they’ve purchased land in Nevada. This could totally change the franchise’s losing ways… or not. Michael is extra happy this week as his fantasy players Tim Anderson and Bryce Harper are off the IL. Will they help their own teams out of the gutter? College Baseball is underway and the latest power rankings have been published with the usual suspects Vanderbilt, Florida, Arkansas, LSU and Stanford hanging in the top-10. This leads to Michael breaking down some of the potential top picks in this year’s draft. LSU’s Dylan Crews and Paul Skenes lead the way, but some other prospects are currently staking their claims for the top picks. Afterwards, the boys get some early trade deadline talk going, each throwing out a few trades they think will happen. And of course, the big one, Shohei Ohtani. They each give a crack at the best hypothetical trade involving him that could happen IF the Angels are suddenly out of the playoff picture. The boys then round out the show with Fantasy Factory and Collection Corner.
