Customer Reviews
Mack Back!
Good to see Eric Mack Back in a podcast! In a fantasy world of stats and calculated moves it is refreshing to get advice from someone who takes these things into consideration but still weighs this against instincts. That is what you get from Eric Mack.
The podcast seems good so far! I have to say stick to fantasy baseball! Not fantasy abs! 8 minutes on men's abs is tooo much for me, baseball please.
Look forward to future podcasts.
Great team
You get the injury lowdown from Will Carroll and winning strategy from Eric Mack. It's like having Bob Horner and Dale Murphy hitting back to back.
Fantasy? This ain't no stinkin' fantasy...
While every major sports site is stocked with so-called "fantasy experts", Sports Illustrated has gone above and beyond the call by amassing a stable of the best analysts in sportswriting. Now, they're bringing the action to a podcast that is essential not only to fantasy players, but any discerning baseball fan.
Hosted by injury analyst Will Carroll - whose Under the Knife injury column was hailed as "The most important column of the decade" by Peter Gammons, and Eric Mack - the two-time NYPA Sports Feature award-winning prospect tracker and stat analyst, the podcast will give you a greater understanding of your fantasy team and the intricacies of baseball in general. Each week brings reviews of the most recent action, injury updates and forecasts, player watches, emerging trends, new stats to track (and explanations), and occasional guests to give a little more inside information. The format is fun, the dialogue is intriguing, and the content is second-to-none.
Keeping a respectable broadcast length, and expert insight, this podcast is a can't-miss. If SI Inside Fantasy and The Sports Poscast are indicative of Sports Illustrated's future podcasting efforts, then they're doing it right.
