99: MLB Recap, top players through the end of May, and more!

Dane Martinez, Scott Engel, and Jake Ciely are your daily morning RotoExperts. We are in the month of June, and Dane and Scott are looking at the top players as we turn the calendar. Dane asks Scott if the future of pitching rotations will move to 6-man rotations. Scott and Dane look at some injury updates, including Rhys Hoskins and David Wright. Jake joins the show, and opens up asking if LeBron James should be held responsible for bringing JR Smith to Cleveland in the first place. Looking at some fantasy football, Dane and Jake question what to do with Devontae Parker, though Jake says to take Kenny Stills over Parker. Jake says Kevin White has a ceiling comparison to Terrell Owens, but says to look elsewhere, possible Corey Davis (calling him a top 30 WR for 2018).  #FNTSY #MLB #fantasybaseball #DFS #RotoCleo #NBAFinals #Cavs #Warriors #LeBronJames #JRSmith #fantasyfootball #DevontaeParker #KennyStills #CoreyDavis #KevinWhite #DFS #DailyRoto #DavidWright Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers
