    Process vs Results with Carter

    The reigning champion Carter joins the podcast for a wide ranging fantasy baseball conversation that covers everything from blockbuster trades, to sabermetrics, to the psychology behind building a roster. We revisit the controversial Matt Olson trade and get a firsthand look into what was going through Carter’s head that day, including why he is always willing to bet on superstar upside. Along the way, we grade a handful of league trades, debate process versus results, and even break down a potential trade between Greg and Stephen live on air in real time.The episode also dives into some of Carter’s favorite baseball metrics, the stats he completely ignores, his skepticism of chase rate, concerns about Logan Gilbert’s arm, and the shocking revelation that despite being one of the league’s biggest Braves fans, he has somehow never attended a Braves game. As always, the disagreements stay fun, the baseball conversations stay sharp, and the trade investigations continue.
