Fantasy Baseball Live – September 28, 2025 – 5 pmSegment 1 – Review the Weekend Games and Playoff situationAdditional Questions:1.One playoff spot is left – Mets or Reds2.Both the Guards and Tigers make it, but for the first time in years, the Astros are out of the playoff race.a.Zach Cole looked really good to end the season. Hit his fourth home run yesterday and stole his third base. Thoughts?3.The Brewers and Phillies get byes in the NL and in the AL it’s the Mariners and either the Yankees or Blue Jays that get the bye4.Give me the ALCS and NLCS finalist and ultimate WS opponents?Segment 1.5 – My Team Top 20s drop on Friday with the Cubs1.Two per week after that until we are done2.I’ve modified my approach and will be discussing.Segment 2 and 3 – Let’s draft the first round1.Shohei Ohtani - Tim2.Aaron Judge - Rich3.Juan Soto - Tim4.Bobby Witt Jr. – Rich5.Jose Ramirez – Tim6.J-Rod – Rich7.Elly De La Rosa – Tim8.Francisco Lindor – Rich9.Corbin Carroll – Tim10.Tarik Skubal – Rich11.Fernando Tatis Jr – Tim12.Kyle Schwarber – Rich13.Gunnar Henderson – Tim14.Kyle Tucker – Rich15.Paul Skenes – Tim16.Junior Caminero - TimSegment 4 – 3 to 5 sleepers entering next season – Here are mineSleepers (5)1.Emmet Sheehan – ERA of 2.82, xERA of 3.01. Three plus pitches of a fastball with a huge whiff rate, signature pitch in his slider (43.6% whiff rate) and a good enough change-up. Above average control.2. Ranger Suarez – Will continue to be underrated because he’s not an elite strikeout guy, but ground ball machine 3.04 xERA on a 3.20 ERA3.Eury Perez – Had a rough spot that drove his ERA up, but xERA is 3.24 with nearly a 10 K/9 strikeout rate. Fastball is back to averaging 98 MPH and his change-up is still ridiculous (60% whiff rate).4.Jac Cag – I’m hoping a .158 batting average surpresses his value. Had a 89 MPH exit velo, which is not elite (more average), but huge bat speed metric and I believe he’s going to hit the ball hard. xBA is .249, reasonable strikeout rate of 22% (just below league average).5.Dylan Crews – Call me crazy, but speed is at 90th percentile, average exit velo is at 89.7 mph, bat speed ranks in upper third of the league, xBA is .248 on his .210 BA. Strikeout rate is a bit high (23%) and walk rate a bit low (7.5%), but nothing too alarming. Failed sleeper1.Coby Mayo – I got intrigued a few weeks ago, and now he’s continued to hit and now has become a bit of Darling going into next season. That said, the data doesn’t not support a breakout. He’s not hitting the ball hard and striking out too much. Oh, he’s been great over the last month, but the exit velos are worse with a .228 xBA. All his power is derived from pull and loft. This might be a sucker a pick, so I’m backing off.Close
