A significant reshuffle in the MLB's top 100 prospects has emerged, highlighting Leo DeVries as the new number one prospect. Known for a blend of speed, power, and defensive prowess, DeVries is seen as a potential future star, albeit more suited for dynasty leagues than redraft leagues this season. Meanwhile, Kevin McGonagle of the Detroit Tigers has risen to the third spot, showcasing impressive stats and a solid batting average. McGonagle's advanced hit tool and power potential make him an intriguing option for keeper leagues.

Prospects like JJ Bleday and Shane Bieber are also under discussion, with Bieber looking to rebound from injury setbacks. He could be a valuable late-season asset if he can return to form following his rehab assignments. Tovar's oblique injury raises questions about his return; however, his potential remains high for the upcoming seasons, making him a stash candidate if healthy.

Rob Manfred's controversial decision to allow the MLB commissioner to select legacy All-Stars has sparked discussion among fans and analysts. With the notable selections of Miguel Cabrera and Albert Pujols in 2022, the question arises: who could follow in their footsteps? Players like Clayton Kershaw and Max Scherzer are highlighted, though none seem ready to bow out yet. Names like Andrew McCutchen and Freddie Freeman are also floated as potential candidates for future legacy honors.

Interestingly, the All-Star Game has yet to see similar selections after 2022, which raises questions about its future. References to Kevin Pillar's recent retirement and an appeal for honoring veterans underscore a desire among fans for more recognition of long-standing players. Ultimately, the conversation touches on the balance of honoring legacy while maintaining the competitive integrity of the All-Star Game.

Ronald Acuña Jr. showcased his remarkable return to form, hitting two home runs in his first two games back, including an impressive 467-foot shot with an exit velocity of 115.5 mph. His strong performance has led to his ranking as a top 15 player across fantasy formats. However, concerns about his stolen base potential linger as he may not replicate his previous speed after a torn ACL.

Tarik Skubal also stole the show with an incredible two-hit shutout against the Padres, achieving a Maddox by completing the game in under 100 pitches, while striking out 13 batters. His ability to adapt and evolve following a Cy Young-caliber season raises questions about his long-term fantasy value.

The weekend also saw significant news as the Red Sox promoted top prospect Marcelo Mayer. With Alex Bregman sidelined, Mayer's performance in the minors has made him a hot add, as he looks to capitalize on his opportunity. The landscape of fantasy baseball is shifting, with injuries and performances reshaping player values.

Struggling closers Mason Miller and Ryella Glacius are under scrutiny as the MLB season progresses. Miller's recent performance has been dismal, with an 8.00 ERA over the last month. Despite this, his prior success and underlying metrics hint at potential recovery, making him a candidate for a buy-low trade. Conversely, Glacius has had a rough season, sporting a 5.89 ERA, raising concerns about his position as the Braves' closer.

Additionally, Jack Flaherty's inconsistency has fantasy managers questioning his reliability, while prospects like Andy Pages and Dylan Crews are drawing attention for their potential upside. The podcast urges listeners to consider trading for these players while their values are lower than expected, especially as the trade deadline approaches.
