St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker is showing true signs of a sustained breakout while Cleveland Guardians second baseman Travis Bazzana is doing a lot of things that Scott likes, too! Meanwhile, sure-thing third basemen Matt Chapman and Bo Bichette are hamstringing fantasy managers with their respective lacking production.

This week on Hacks & Jacks, Scott and Brett dive into the Top 150 Hitters List, including the players who have risen the most this week and the ones that have tumbled down Scott's rankings. Are players who are out-kicking their coverage like Ozzie Albies and Munetaka Murakami sell-high candidates or should managers be holding as long as the production is still there. Other managers are being held hostage by stars that aren't producing up to their potential – like Fernando Tatis Jr. – and there really isn't much that they can do. Managers could never just drop them and a trade would get pennies on the dollar. Scott and Brett discuss the best path forward and more on this episode of Hacks & Jacks.

This week on Hacks & Jacks, Scott and Brett dive into the landscape of hitters across MLB – some of which have been great and some not so much. It's awesome to see guys like CJ Abrams and Andy Pages off to such a hot start but how sustainable is their success and what should fantasy managers be on the lookout for? And for guys like Francisco Lindor and Nick Kurtz who have been dreadful to open the season, what level of concern should fantasy managers have in regard to their lack of success so far? The crew takes a look under the hood to figure out what performances are real and which ones are fluky make-believe numbers that won't stick around. The answers to these questions and much more are all here for you on this episode of Hacks & Jacks.
