Vlad Sedler (@rotogut) joins DVR to discuss a few spring news items before digging into February's risers and fallers on draft boards as Wyatt Langford has cruised into the top-40, Junior Caminero has moved into the top-75, and Alex Bregman is making his way back toward the top-100 after landing with the Red Sox. Plus, they discuss a few of the rapidly rising closers whose job outlooks changed over the course of the past months, and a few fallers -- including the draft market's drop of Rays pitching as the Tampa Bay staff will have its home games at Steinbrenner Field in 2025.
