Fantasy Baseball Expert Ian Riley

Ian Riley of RotoExperts.com

About My Guest: Ian’s first exposure to the world of Fantasy sports came in the form of Strat-O-Matic baseball back in the summer of 1994 at the tender age of 17. That introduction has led to a love affair with both Fantasy Baseball and Football that is now rapidly approaching two decades. 
 
His writing career began in August of 2008 with OPENSports.com, where he was discovered by the one-and-only David Gonos. While there his work also appeared on FantasyLive.com and the Fantasy Football draft kit on FoxSports.com. 

Ian brought his talents to RotoExperts in March of 2011, where he writes his weekly OSR Report (Observations, Speculations and Revelations). He also regularly appears on Sirius XM Fantasy Sports Radio with Scott Engel and Adam Ronis.

Episode Summary: Ian and I talk Fantasy Baseball for over an hour to get you prepared for the upcoming week.  The fact that Ian and I know each other so well really comes through on the episode even when we disagree on some players.  Make sure to listen all the way to the end when we discuss our top waiver wire adds for the week.
