The Shallows EP 002 - Sink or Swim

Erik Hinrichsen and Carson Picard set sail aboard The Shallows, giving you current news, draft strategies, and players to sink or swim with this draft season. First we have the Captain's Report, featuring all the news you need to know, including the Twins losing Pablo Lopez for the season already, Nick Castellanos's new home, Zac Gallen returning to Arizona, a new big arm in the Bronx, the hamate bone injury epidemic, and a quick chat about the most interesting Japanese players who came over this offseason. Erik and Carson also answer the first listener question of the season, talking about pitcher draft strategies. Lastly they play a new game called sink or swim where they each picked three players and ask each other if they would swim with those players at their ADP or let them sink further in the draft. But here's the catch? Neither of Erik nor Carson has seen each other's picks! In an actual live draft you likely have to make decisions quickly, so they're putting their baseball knowledge and wits to the test by doing it LIVE on the show! Welcome to The Shallows!

First base is deep again heading into the 2026 season, with guys like Spencer Torkelson and Willson Contreras outside of the Top 100 hitters. There's a nice balance of boring production and exciting potential (though flawed) down in these tiers as well. Which prospects are the most exciting heading into draft season and which ones have the clearest path to playing time? Brett and Scott talk through it all in this episode of Hacks & Jacks.
