Fantasy Baseball Podcast: Dynasty Talk with Ian Kahn

Fantasy Baseball Podcast: Dynasty Talk with Ian Kahn

This article is part of our Fantasy Baseball Podcast series.

RotoWire's Lead Prospect Analyst James Anderson and Senior MLB Editor Clay Link are joined by The Athletic's Ian Kahn to discuss two sets of Dynasty Rankings: one for Contenders and one for Rebuilders. How should they be used when drafting or trading? What's the most difficult type of player to rank/value? (Clay's toughest player to rank for the broad set of rankings was Max Scherzer....) What are the most common mistakes you see novice dynasty players make?

Enjoy either the audio or full video versions.  Here is the traditional audio podcast:
