Respect has always been an interesting concept for me. As a Korean American, I was brought up to always respect my elders and people in positions of authority. In high school, though, I would see older kids punking the younger ones under the guise of the “system.” That’s when it all broke down for me, […]

Weekly Razzball news delivered straight to your inbox.
Middle Infield tends to produce the most exciting rookies. When you think about it all the way back to Little League, the most athletic players play up the middle. When they can hit as well, that produces an exciting prospect, which leads to an exciting rookie. Now is as good a time as any to […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Sal Stewart (2-for-4, 6 RBIs and his 6th and 7th homer, hitting .323) is the first time in the history of the Reds that I’ve liked a hitter coming into the year and he’s actually performed well. Matt McLain? More like Matt McLame (wiped out his whole family with that one). TJ Friedl? More like […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?White Sox LHP Noah Schultz (22) made his major league debut on Tuesday night, allowing three earned runs in 4.1 innings with four strikeouts and four walks at home against the first-place Rays. He’ll head to Sacramento for his next start before facing the Nationals at home in his third major league outing. That’s the place to start him for the first time, I suspect, if you’ve got him on your fantasy teams.
Please, blog, may I have some more?When I think of boring players in fantasy baseball, I think of guys who are AL or NL-only roster fillers. Guys who get at-bats, but very little in the counting stats department. Guys with much more value in real baseball than in the fantasy realm. For me, when it comes to guys like that, in […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last week, we talked about some hotter starts. Well, guys, not all starts are created equal. All of these guys were expected to do well and drafted in the top 100 in most leagues. Guess what? They’re not doing well. Who should we worry about? Read this prospects piece first. There is hope! Also, go ahead […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Yesterday, Reid Detmers (7 IP, 0 ER, 4 hits, zero walks, 9 Ks, ERA at 3.18) pitched a gem vs. the Yanks. One small aside. One tiny note on that. One teensy, weensy assist that he received from Aaron Boone betting against the Yankees on Polymarket. I mean, I can only guess, since he benched […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We are into week four, and before things get too out of hand, I wanted to have a little chat about pacing ourselves through this grueling baseball season. No, this is not a PSA reminding you to mix a glass of water into your whiskey drinking (but do that too). This is about pacing your […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?What’s poppin’, Razzpimples? Week 3 is in the books. SAGNOF Bullpen Report time! Don’t forget to keep that there Razzball Bullpen Chart bookmarked. It’s been updated with the latest, and I’m usually quick to get it touched up once any type of news drops. And if you’re not a subscriber, I do highly, highly, highly recommend it. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?OK, we now have about 40% more data than we did last week when I looked at early-season OF booms and busts. There were some player requests in the comments and some (100% justified) mockery about one of my busts as he went off. Reverse Jinxes really work! It’s high time we revisit this and […]
