Rey-Lo’s Value Used To Be A Little Now He’s Worth A Lot

“There is ample evidence that the public is getting a wee bit tired of all these ‘pitchers duels’,” wrote The Washington Post’s Bob Addie in late-1968. So after the season, MLB officials lowered the mound to 10 inches and shrank the strike zone to its modern size. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Avoiding The Blurbstomp – Categorical Denial

by: C.A. James

It's the time of the season wherein we look at our teams and some people see a magnificent juggernaut, while others see a mirage, a trojan horse of confidence hiding grisly innards of broken dreams and decaying hope.

What’s The Point: Building Like A Masyn

June 13, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, Fantasy Baseball Points Leagues | 10 Comments

by: Butters

What is up party people? One of this season's breakout hitters, Masyn Winn seems to still be flying under the radar. He hasn't really stood out in a singular area but he looks like a vastly improved hitter from what we saw last season. Batting average has been his strong suite and you can't be mad at a guy hitting over .300. The secret sauce is there might be some untapped power waiting to be unleashed. I'm not suddenly expecting him drop 50 on us, but he did swat 18 in 445 at bats his last turn in AAA so the 3 he has this season feel a little low. Even if he turns into 20-25 home runs hitter and can keep his average close to .300 he suddenly becomes a much more interesting hitter. There's quite a bit to like here even if the power doesn't manifest this season

The 2024 Major League Baseball season is about 11 weeks old (over a third of the way done already!), which means we finally have meaningful numbers that count to start evaluating our fantasy squads. With only 27 weeks in the fantasy baseball season, even a few weeks of information should help guide us to decisions about who deserves a valuable roster spot on our teams and who deserves the bench or deserves to be cut.

After coming over from San Diego as part of the return for Dylan Cease, White Sox RHP Drew Thorpe has posted a tremendous season for Double-A Birmingham and was rewarded for his efforts with a promotion straight past Triple-A and into the majors for Tuesday’s game. He threw five innings against Seattle and allowed one earned run. In 60 Double-A innings, Thorpe’s double-plus command and changeup helped him produce a 0.87 WHIP and 1.35 ERA along with 56 strikeouts and 17 walks.

One Man’s Trash: O’Hearn Airport

June 12, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, One Man's Trash | 10 Comments

by: Son

O’Hearn Airport was constructed in 2023. It was a niche airfield, sending and receiving only products from the Left Coast. As a result, the volume paled in comparison to those from Gunnar Island, Santander International Airport, or Rutschman Rail Yard. Despite the lower volume, O’Hearn Airport delivered and served a useful function. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Did you know they still play baseball on bad teams, and their stats count just as much? Didn’t think so. I wouldn’t blame you for avoiding all things White Sox for this season, or Marlins, or any of the 6 or so teams that have already tanked. Please, blog, may I have some more?

The Royals lost 10-1 to the Yankees last night in a game where both Judge and Stanton went back-to-back. They are also on the verge of losing 4 straight games. The bats have to wake up and what better way to do it against the New York Yankees and Cody Poteet. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Yesterday, Miles Mikolas faced off with Paul Skenes, but luckily they kept their faces on. This game was mano a mano. Mustachio a mustachio. A Mikolaskenes. A uniting of hair lips to create one great hair lip that Europeans want to vacation at in August. Please, blog, may I have some more?
