Dynasty Deep Dive - Episode 24: Who's Getting the Call?

With the September 1st MLB roster expansions right around the corner, Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) each take a league (Nate-NL / Mikey-AL) and name one prospect per team who he believes should be promoted. They run through all 30 teams.That's not all. Nate has his prospect nominations for The Deep Dive Squad!!All on the latest episode of Dynasty Deep Dive!!

Hosts Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND), both dive into equally treacherous waters. Nate takes us through the Bermuda Triangle of teenage wunderkinds, the Dominican Summer League. He enters a fantastical land where everyone hits in the .300s, has a 1:1 BB:K ratio, and steals leagues of bases, seemingly at will.Mikey trudges through the deep and dark waters of Arizona and traverse the sparse desert otherwise known as Florida. As he names the Complex League standouts, we shall remember just how young these players truly are. With that, too shall we remember just how many of these teens are actually rostered in all Fantrax Leagues. Or should we say, not actually rostered! Fair or not, to each standout, your team shall benefit from all the shiny treasures Nate and Mikey have unearthed!!

Join Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Jeremy Mahy (@_JMahy_) as they go through their second-half "surgeons." That is, starting pitchers who are trending in the right direction leading into the second half of the season. Hence the phrasing "second half surge" mixed with those dastardly young "surgeons" as they slice and dice hitters across MiLB. These are the young arms you want on your team.Six (SP's) from Nate. Six (SP's) from Jeremy. With two lil' caveats. 1. 3 of the 6 are owned in 0-10% of all Fantrax Leagues. And 2. the other 3 of 6 are owned in 10-20% of all Fantrax Leagues. These are the types of names, and these are the types of moves that separate you from the competition. Thus, it'd be wise to check out this latest episode of Dynasty Deep Dive!!

Prepare for the ultimate deep dive! Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) invite Futures Focus host - and all-around great guy - Jeremy Mahy (@_JMahy_) back to the show to participate in the inaugural Five Percenters Club Challenge!!All three name their all-world squads from the Minors, but with only one small caveat. Their teams must be comprised of players owned in 5% or less of all Fantrax leagues. Let that sink in. Top-to-bottom, three teams, all of which, the players are owned in less that 5% of all Fantrax leagues. The players named - due to their excessively low ownership(s) - play contrarian to the unfair belief that "if you're not owned, you're not good." As our trio proves, the statement above has numerous exceptions - thirty-three to be exact (9 position players and 2 pitchers per team x 3). Get those pens, pencils, and keyboards ready because, we're diving deep!!!
