Hello, everyone, and welcome to This Week in Fantasy Baseball. I'm John Cook, joined by my co-host Patrick Fitzgerald, and our guest for this week, pitcherless writer Martin Sikulski. In this episode, we're going to go over Martin's article previewing potential AL prospects that might be making their way to the majors next season. And then we'll wrap it up by looking back at the over and underperformers from last season, specifically a few hitters.

But as I mentioned, we are joined today by Pinterest writer Martin Sikulski. Martin, welcome back to the show. How are you doing? I'm doing well. Thanks for having me again. Nice to see you, John. It's been probably about a year since we recorded last. I think our last conversation was about the three Jackson's, Merrill, Truro, and Holiday. So it's been a while and nice to see Patrick as well.

Yeah, it's been a fun time, obviously busy time for the dynasty team. You guys are putting out a

bunch of articles. How has been this year for you kind of just

in terms of fantasy baseball and maybe even real baseball, though I know that wasn't maybe the

greatest experience this season for you? Yeah, the Red Sox, I mean, they did better than I thought

they would. They got to a game, you know, winner take all game in

the Bronx, and that's more than I would have ever expected. As far as fantasy goes, kind of an up

and down year. I finished second in my TG FBI League, which is probably my favorite thing I did

all year because I finished dead last in the previous two seasons. So that was encouraging and just putting out a lot of content over it,

the dynasty team for Pitcher List.

We've got so much stuff coming out.

So keep an eye on that, especially as we approached the new year.

Yeah, I know you also had the fun job of putting out together dynasty rankings,

which I'm sure is not easy, but nonetheless,

a very helpful tool for us dynasty managers who are just trying to figure out, yeah, where do

people rank? So definitely appreciate that work. But yeah, we are going to be talking about your

article on potential AL prospects that might be making their way to the majors in 2026. A lot of good names here. We're only going to focus on the stars. You had a couple different tiers in this one, basically players that could be starters, players that were replacement level guys. And then my favorite, just a guy, you know, guys that, you know, starters, players that were, you know, replacement level guys. And then

my favorite, just a guy, you know, guys that, you know, might make it up as, you know, organizational death, maybe a, you know, not even like maybe a fourth outfielder, but a guy who gets called up maybe a couple times, but, you know, just won't be fantasy relevant. But as this is a fantasy baseball show, we are going to focus on those who are viable fantasy assets.

But before we get into really just, in. But as this is a fantasy baseball show, we are going to focus on those who are viable fantasy assets.
