"the rest of this. The Bill Simmons podcast is brought to you by Fandall. On Fandall, a player leaving the game doesn't have to be in the end of your bet. It's called pinch hit protection. If the player you bet on exits the game and it's replaced by a pinch hit or your bet stays in play with the player who takes this place because in the post season managers are going to make moves. Line up, so they're going to change and Fandall gives your bet away to stay in the game. I agree with what cousin South said on Sunday. I think we're headed for a Tampa Milwaukee World Series. It just seems like the perfect matchup as we head into a lockout. And also both those teams are really good. I am on Ben Rice for homers. Basically every Yankee playoff game the rest of the way because he's on fire and he's the only one on that team who's hitting it. I don't think it's going to stop. So there you go. When you're making your player picks this post season look out for pinch hit protection. Check it out in the Fandall app or visit Fandall.com slash BS to get started.
