PullHitter Fantasy BaseballEpisode Notes
I am joined by the 2025 NFBC Draft Champions winner James Tomony. Jim has now won the NFBC's three biggest overall events- The Main Event, Online Championship, and now the DC- joining Lindy Hinkelman as the only other person to pull off that feat.
We discuss
- Jim's dominant overall win, by 2000 points
- Nearly 7 categories with 94th percentile and over
- Strategy / Roster construction talk
- Do you have a typical approach to building your DC teams?
- Are you using percentile targets while drafting?
- What are your goals per position, ie- 3 1B / 10 OF, how many pitchers/relievers, etc
- Multi eligibility a priority?
- Format trends/changes in 2025 → is just one year, or are things shifting?
- The correlation between AB and the counting stats cats were lower than historical marks over the past
- What goes behind your team names?
