Hey Fast Ball Talks community!
With the 2025 season heating up, I wanted to dive into some intriguing fantasy baseball discussions sparked by the latest episode of The Sleeper and the Bust. The hosts highlighted some interesting targets after pick 300, and it got me thinking about the hidden gems that can make or break our fantasy teams.
First off, let's talk about Tommy Pham and Mike Tauchman as potential steals for runs. Do you think these players can really deliver consistent value, or are they just flashes in the pan? What’s your experience with late-round picks that turned out to be game-changers?
On the home run front, Giancarlo Stanton and Hunter Goodman were mentioned. Stanton has been a perennial power threat, but can he stay healthy enough to justify a late-round pick? Goodman is a bit more of a wildcard—what are your thoughts on his potential to break out this season?
The conversation also touched on players like Carlos Santana and Trevor Larnach for RBIs. Santana has been around the block, but does he still have enough left in the tank to be a reliable contributor? And Larnach—can he finally put it all together this year?
As for speed, Dylan Moore and Jacob Young were highlighted. Speedsters can be game-changers in fantasy, but how do you weigh the risk versus reward with these types of players?
Lastly, let’s not forget about pitching. With names like Brayan Bello and Chris Bassitt being discussed for wins and ERA, how do you approach drafting pitchers in the later rounds? Are you more inclined to take a chance on a high-upside guy or a steady veteran?
I’d love to hear your bold predictions for these players and any other late-round targets you’re eyeing. Let’s get the conversation rolling!
