| 0:16.6 | Hello, everyone, and welcome to this week in Fantasy Baseball. |
| 0:19.8 | I'm John Cud, joined by my co-host, Patrick Fitzgerald. |
| 0:22.6 | And today we're joined by pitcherless dynasty manager Matt Hackman to talk about nationally hitting prospects that are likely to debut in 2026. |
| 0:31.8 | Matt, welcome to the show. |
| 0:32.9 | How are you doing? |
| 0:33.8 | I'm good. |
| 0:34.4 | Thanks for having me on again. |
| 0:36.0 | Yeah. |
| 0:36.9 | Patrick, also, how are you doing after a little bit of a break from our last episode? I'm good. Thanks for having me on again. Yeah. Patrick, also how are you doing after a little bit of a break from our last episode? |
