  • Best prospect pod around

    This show helped my dynasty teams immensely in 2021. James’s prospect knowledge is second to none. Clay is an outstanding host. An icing on the cake: both of their hip-hop track knowledges are on point. Highly recommend!

Rotation Battles + Late Starting Pitchers w/ Dustin McComas

Top 400 Prospects Mailbag!
Q: Who is projected to be a top pitching prospect this year and what makes Wenninger stand out?
Jack Wenninger is cited as a potential top-20 pitcher this season due to a strong full pitch mix and favorable ground-ball tendencies, showing upside that could accelerate into the top 20 in 2026.
Top 400 Prospects Mailbag!
Q: Which players are highlighted as potential breakout catchers or those with unique defensive value?
Basallo and Rodriguez are discussed as elite catching prospects for fantasy, with Basallo having a higher floor and ceiling due to his performance at upper levels, while Rodriguez could move off catcher but still contribute offensively.
Top 400 Prospects Mailbag!
Q: What skills or stats indicate a pitcher could make a big jump in rankings this year?
A complete pitch mix, at least a mid-90s fastball, ability to generate weak contact, and a favorable K-to-walk ratio in the high teens are key signals for a pitcher to rise in rankings.
How To Win A Main Event w/ Mark Srebro
Q: Do you care to give us your first bold take, Mark?
