Steve "Sparky" Fifer talks with Tim Dillard about Keston Hiura, the Brewers bullpen since the Josh Hader trade, Christian Yelich struggles in August, and much more!! 

Matt Stroup and Drew Silva look at the fallout from recent injuries to MLB stolen base leader Adalberto Mondesi and surging outfielder Eloy Jimenez (11 homers since the start of June), as well as Jay Bruce and Byron Buxton. We also analyze hot streaks for Keston Hiura and Ramon Laureano, and consider what kind of impact Nathan Eovaldi might have when he returns as the Red Sox closer.

Matt Stroup and George Bissell consider some recent waiver wire options, including a surging Mallex Smith (17 steals since late May), a hot-hitting Keston Hiura (.308 with three homers in July) and Rays prospect Nate Lowe, who had five home runs in his last eight games at the start of this week. We also discuss whether Andrew Cashner is worth the risk now that he's with the Red Sox, what to expect from Daniel Ponce de Leon going forward and the outlook for fire-throwing Padres reliever Andres Munoz. Plus, why Emilio Pagan should be added immediately if he's still available in your league.

Matt Stroup and Nate Grimm look at an impressive wave of recent big league arrivals, including hard-hitting recent call-ups Austin Riley, Keston Hiura and Brendan Rodgers. Plus, what to make of a dynamic month of May from Byron Buxton, a dominant 15-strikeout start from Shane Bieber and a stolen base binge from Nick Senzel.
