With an abbreviated spring schedule this year, pitchers have been feeling a bit of pressure to ramp up quickly. This is already causing some injury problems and the regular season hasn’t even begun yet. Many key starters (and a few relievers) are already nicked up, some more seriously than others…

Despite everyone paying a load of attention to lineups and matchups as we always do in March, there are still always a few positional questions that aren’t quite clarified as teams depart from Arizona and Florida to start the regular season. Part of the cause for the uncertainty was due…

We all know that spring statistics mean nothing a lot of the time. It seems like often the players who lead the Grapefruit League in home runs end up playing the rest of the season (and often their career) in places like Toledo, Buffalo and Memphis. Hitting bombs off of…

I realize that baseball season may not start until December 2027, but a lot of fantasy drafts have their dates set for March, so I’m going to do my level best to get fantasy nerds prepared, even if it currently feels pointless and depressing – just like baseball owners always…

This will be the last positional breakdown of the preseason. After this I will have some suggestions of sleepers, players who are overrated and underrated and positional battles to keep your eye on. Right fielder might be the deepest position as far as getting an elite player goes- more than…

My last fantasy baseball article was to warn you about overbidding for players that I didn’t think were worthy of the draft spots they were being taken in. Today we’re going to talk about players I think you actually should reach for before they’ve been going off the board. It’s…

Rather than just rank outfielders, I thought I’d be a little more specific because some drafts require you to cover all three outfield positions and it can be valuable to know who plays where and which of the outfield spots is deepest and which is kinda thin, so you can…

I’ve done a number of drafts so far this spring – some of which happened before we were even sure there would be a season and a few since the labor agreement was ratified. I have noticed some emerging trends so far in the last few weeks and a few…

This is a position where almost no one separates themselves from the pack. There’s one clear Alpha Dog – hitting 48 home runs in 2021 will do that for you; but then things even out really quickly. There are a few guys who are above average, but even the slightest…

There was a time when dozens of big, burly, powerful first basemen roamed the countryside, looming over the rest of fantasy baseball like giant dinosaurs, crushing mammoth home runs and knocking in baserunners in record numbers. As light-hitting little middle infielders meekly scampered around on the ground beneath these skyscrapers,…
