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.

Major League Baseball's landscape is constantly evolving, and understanding the latest prospects and injured players is crucial for fantasy league success. Yuri Pérez of the Miami Marlins is generating buzz among fantasy enthusiasts. With only 26% ownership, his imminent return from Tommy John surgery makes him a prime target. In his brief stint, he showcased impressive strikeout potential with a 3.15 ERA and 108 strikeouts over 91 innings. Meanwhile, Cincinnati Reds' Christian Encarnacion-Strand, currently 17% owned, is recovering from a back issue that has limited his play but could provide significant power and RBI potential upon his return.

Tyler O’Neill of the Baltimore Orioles offers another compelling case; with a power-hitting upside, his current neck injury has sidelined him, but he’s projected to return soon. Lucas Giolito’s rehabilitation presents a risk-reward scenario for deeper leagues, while Zack Gelof of the Oakland Athletics, although struggling, has potential upside worth monitoring. New prospects like Kobe Mayo from the Orioles and Andrew Painter from the Phillies are also on the radar, with Mayo needing to prove himself in Triple-A before a likely call-up, and Painter being a potential difference-maker once he returns.
