On The Corner Podcast

Brett and Scott dive in discussing the depth of this year's talent pool, debunking the myth of positional scarcity and examining the in-draft decision-making process of when to draft safe against when to take a shot on upside. Later on in the episode, Scott drops some names that have moved up his ranks over the course of the offseason and some bats that he's avoiding at cost early in draft season.Hosts: Brett Ford | Scott Chu  Join Our Discord & Support The Show: PL+ | PL Pro - Get 15% off Yearly with code PODCASTProud member of the Pitcher List Fantasy Baseball Podcast Network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Keep or Kut - Pete (@PeteBBaseball) and Chad Young (@chadyoung) just finished up a keeper league draft with 10 listeners and take some time to go through interesting picks and keeps.4:13 - Chad and Pete pick 1-2 and the first tough calls of the draft came because Pete was "stuck" with a util-only bat at 1.1.10:44 - Right off the start, you get guys being taken over ADP - even in the first round. But because of keepers, team structure and more, it's less a reach and more a pick that makes sense.20:01 - Did Matt Heckman jump too early on Wyatt Langford? And how do we feel about a second round keeper price on Cal Raleigh?23:11 - Third and fourth round keepers are high priced but generally make sense once you have context.27:34 - George Springer is a great example of old guy value and he comes with real upside even at a high cost.30:04 - We move into the fifth and sixth rounds, and Chad jumps into a mini-closer run, because he was committed to chasing saves because he kept a first closer.37:40 - Eugenio Suárez is

Adam Howe and Kevin Hasting break down fantasy-relevant MLB veterans who will be 35 or older in 2026, discussing why age-based discounts often go too far in drafts. Position by position, they evaluate starters, relievers, and hitters who still provide stable volume, category juice, or late-draft value—especially in NFBC-style formats. The episode emphasizes trusting skills, roles, and projections over age bias while building balanced fantasy rosters.0:00–6:30 — Episode Setup & Draft PhilosophyWhy veteran players are often overdocked due to ageCan you build a competitive roster leaning heavily on 35+ players?Format considerations (NFBC, draft-and-hold, redraft)Setting criteria: age 35+ entering 2026 season 6:30–32:00 — Veteran Starting PitchersCore discussion around innings, risk, and projection valuePlayers discussed:Chris Sale, Jacob deGrom.
