Atlanta Braves’ stars Austin Riley and Ozzie Albies headline bounce-back candidates for the 2026 fantasy baseball season. Can Riley recapture his elite power stats and thrive as cleanup in a revitalized lineup alongside Ronald Acuña Jr. and Matt Olson? Matthew Ahne and Dominic Martino spotlight early spring training standouts, dissect Riley’s injury history, and debate Albies’ home run potential as his lineup role shifts.

Key topics include Luis Robert’s fresh start with the New York Mets, Brenton Doyle’s post-slump upside with the Colorado Rockies, and must-draft value picks like Padres’ Jackson Merrill and veteran pitcher Sonny Gray. The hosts explore strategy for exploiting player splits, discuss hard-hit and barrel rates, and deliver actionable draft advice to help you capitalize on late-round lottery tickets. Will these bounce-back bets deliver league-winning production?
