Show Notes
O'Neill Cruz left fantasy managers wanting more this season, hitting just .259 with 21 home runs. Drafted in the third round, his performance didn't quite match the hype. Is he worth a gamble in next year's drafts?
In this episode, we dive into Cruz's stats and potential for a comeback. We also evaluate Brian Reynolds' reliable output, Paul Skenes' standout rookie season with a sub-2 ERA, and Mitch Keller's rollercoaster year. Plus, we assess David Bednar's struggles as a closer and his value as a mid-tier RP2 option.
Tune in for a comprehensive look at the Pittsburgh Pirates' players and their fantasy baseball prospects. Get the insights you need to make informed decisions for your fantasy team next season!
