Episode notes
IL Tags Can Create Draft Discounts
- Injury transparency affects draft decisions and perceived player value.
- Frank cites Trey Yassavage's shoulder IL news as a discounting opportunity since stashing in an IL spot can be preferable to holding on a bench.
Exploit Midround Pitcher ADP Slips
- Take advantage of mid-to-late draft slips on risky pitchers when they fall beyond their typical ADP.
- Scott says Dylan Cease, Nick Pivetta, and Brandon Woodruff have shown occasional value slips of 20–30 spots worth exploiting.
Stash Jacob Lopez As A Late Strikeout Target
- Target late-round breakout arms with repeatable strikeout track records like Jacob Lopez.
- Scott highlights Lopez's final 13 healthy starts (2.17 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, 10.8 K/9) and ADP outside the top 350 as a late-value grab.
