  • Solid Fantasy Analysis

    Anyone looking to get more than surface level analysis about baseball players should listen. Production value of the show itself leaves a little bit to be desired but doesn’t take away from the troves of information you can’t find on most fantasy podcasts.

  • Entertaining & Informative

    Hacks & Jacks is a great listen for all fantasy baseball players. It’s entertaining and informative. Joe & Scott casually discuss all thing fantasy baseball. They don’t just spew numbers and ratios at you. It feels like you are a part of the conversation. I definitely recommend for players of all levels.

H&J 116 – Small Sample Sizes
Q: How do we differentiate between the guys that we drafted and we think we're going to do well versus unknown young players that break out?

Q: Are there any concerns with these underperforming guys?
