Prepare for the ultimate deep dive!

Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) invite Futures Focus host - and all-around great guy - Jeremy Mahy (@_JMahy_) back to the show to participate in the inaugural Five Percenters Club Challenge!!

All three name their all-world squads from the Minors, but with only one small caveat. Their teams must be comprised of players owned in 5% or less of all Fantrax leagues. Let that sink in.

Top-to-bottom, three teams, all of which, the players are owned in less that 5% of all Fantrax leagues. The players named - due to their excessively low ownership(s) - play contrarian to the unfair belief that "if you're not owned, you're not good." As our trio proves, the statement above has numerous exceptions - thirty-three to be exact (9 position players and 2 pitchers per team x 3).

Get those pens, pencils, and keyboards ready because, we're diving deep!!!

We've got an extra special crossover edition of Dynasty Deep Dive! Host Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) is joined by a very special guest, Futures Focus host, Jeremy Mahy (@_JMahy_)!

Nate and Jeremy dive headlong into the Arizona and Florida Complex Leagues, revealing their favorite "hot start" prospects! They analyze the teenage wunderkinds putting up ridiculous stats all over the backfields.

You want deep folks? Look no further than right here at Dynasty Deep Dive!!

Episode 8 of Season 2 (our 18th overall) finds hosts Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) naming their Top 5 Starting Pitchers a piece, whilst putting together a consensus Future Top 10!

On top of that, gather your diving gear because we're going, DEEP!! Mikey gives us two scarcely owned in Fantrax Leagues prospects who'll become diamonds from the roughest of seas.

Nate brings his flippers to the galley for another 3 SPs who are owned in less than 13% of all Fantrax Leagues as well!!

As we're about a month into the 2026 season, hosts Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) share four Deep Dives (2 hitters, 2 pitchers) owned in less than 16% of all Fantrax leagues.

In addition, Nate and Michael take an exclusive tour of the Zhou Dynasty league. Five years in and running stronger than ever, the hosts just so happen to own the majority of their league's hardware (3 of 5 titles).

As Mikey grades Nate's six (+) trades already in 2026, enjoy a backstage pass through the ins and outs of all things: strategy, team construction, trade philosophy, and, plainly, how to win.

You won't want to miss this episode!

With sample sizes still growing throughout the various levels of Minor League Baseball, our hosts - Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) - navigate the stormy seas of not having enough stats.

Yet they managed to come up with equally challenging lists for one another, forced to answer on the spot: whether these prospects are 'Buys,' 'Holds,' or 'Sells.' A lot of their answers may surprise you.

Knowing whether to buy, sell, or hold is a vitally important part of managing a dynasty organization. This episode taps into the very essence of deciding when, where, and how long each of the prospects mentioned should inevitably land.

Don't be left in the dirt!!

Hosts Nate Eckert (@GQMiLB) and Michael Kelley (@MKelley_ND) list their favorite MLB prospects, one position at a time!

With the lower Minor League Baseball season(s) still in their infancy in 2026, Nate and Mikey dive deep into the numerous reasons why they love these certain players above all others.

Reunited for their first episode since the Season 2 premiere, Mr. Eckert and Mr. Kelley are back! Now, without further ado...

Let's get DEEP!!

Join our host, Nate Eckert (@GQ__82), through each selection of his league's - the Zhou Dynasty - First Year Players' Draft (FYPD).

All ten of his team King Wu-Tang Clan's picks are, in Nate's opinion, the very best ten he's ever compiled in one single FYPD alone.

Be sure to listen and find out who he takes. Nate gives his advice, full scouting reports on his picks, and the reasons why he chose certain players over others.

All of this brought to you from glorious and sunny Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Nate Eckert (@GQ__82) guides us through the varying strategies of First Year Player Drafting.

"Everyone has a gameplan until they get punched in the face."

-Mike Tyson

What happens thereafter?

This is the show that will help you prepare, navigate, and excel before and after that punch makes its landing.

Deep Dive's Draft Strategy Guide has arrived! Use it.

Allow host(s) Nate Eckert and Alex Sanchez to guide you through the crafty waters of your annual FYPD(s). This episode (part one of a three-part series) logically begins with Round 1.

FYPDs are unique in that there's no other allotted time or opportunity to improve upon your team's value without giving up any equity whatsoever.

Therefore, in a hypothetically realistic league of 14 teams, Nate and Alex go back and forth, pick by pick, delivering their highly coveted analysis about highly coveted prospects, so that you are more prepared than your competition.

All you have to do is tune in for the next three episodes and get the lowdown on their favorite draftees to get that upper hand!
