Episode Details

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood is rewriting expectations with a jaw-dropping surge—could he be a surefire 2027 first-round fantasy pick? Dominick Martino breaks down Wood’s electrifying 2024 stats: leading MLB in runs, unleashing 15 home runs, stealing nine bases, and boasting elite plate discipline at just 23 years old. Wood’s power-speed combo and rising batting average make him the top bat in Yahoo head-to-head categories leagues.

Martino explores Wood’s preseason ADP, his value as an OF2, and the breakneck pace over the last two weeks that has fantasy managers buzzing. Projected for 35+ homers, 100+ runs and RBIs, and a steady .275-.285 average, Wood’s underlying Baseball Savant metrics highlight his superstar trajectory. Where will he rank among outfielders like Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, and Kyle Tucker heading into 2027? Tune in for actionable insights on maximizing your fantasy baseball roster this season and beyond.
