Happy All-Star break, RCLers!  We’re almost 60% of the way now and this little lull in the action is a perfect time to regroup, analyze our teams and league standings, and formulate a plan for the rest of the season.  Are you up by 40 steals?  Well, maybe look to move a stolen base threat […]

We only had two trades this week in week 15 and that got me wondering how long teams had to improve their teams.  If I’m wondering, probably other people are too.  The answer is August 7th, we have about a month left to make any trades, buy or sell those saves, and aim for a […]

About halfway through week 14 marked our midpoint of the fantasy baseball season.  We tend to celebrate the halfway mark at the All-Star break, but this is actually our halfway point for stat purposes.  That means you should be sitting around 700 IP right now if you plan to max out, or at the very […]

Thirteen weeks down, lucky number thirteen.  Fitting then that we will open today by talking about “win luck”.  Now, Rudy will tell you that Wins are actually predictable as shown by his Ombotsman.  While the data and the bots may tell you this, as a human, it still seems like they are luck-based, do they […]

Just like that, we can’t have nice things.  First Acuna, now Mookie, our first round picks are dropping like flies.  The number of teams where I lost both Mookie and Yamamoto made this past weekend a rough one.  Replacing these players Monday morning was an exercise in futility.  Mookie turned into Miguel Rojas, and Yamamoto […]

It was a bloodbath out there this week, folks.  I had teams with ERAs of epic proportions thanks to Bryan Bello, Freddy Peralta, and Hurston Waldrep, who took time off from the front of the Monopoly box to ruin my ratios.  If you managed to avoid these landmines and others, you were likely rewarded by […]

Welcome to our second RCL Master Standings update!  We are ten weeks in and the first Tuesday of the month means we have updated standings!  Who sits atop the RCL universe now?  Scroll and find out!  We also have our usual weekly numbers, trades, and a RazzSlam update.  Make sure to get those RazzSlam FAAB […]

It’s a holiday weekend and I’m all thrown off.  Holiday Mondays are always weird for me and writing this article.  Collecting data while my schedule is all helter-skelter.  Am I the only one who gets really thrown off by unstructured days off?  I eat at weird times, I feel like I’m wandering through the day, […]

As we approach Memorial Day and the week eight recap of the Razzball Commenter Leagues our leagues standings have stabilized a bit.  Those teams who got out to 30 point leads at the end of April have drifted back to the pack (hopefully) and even those teams who were sitting in last place (I had […]

With all the call-ups and breakouts, it really makes me want to experiment next year by only focusing on the first ten rounds of offense, grabbing a starter, and a million relievers, and then just streaming/grabbing prospects to fill out my roster.  Paul Skenes is the latest in awesome call-ups.  Undrafted in every RCL, he […]
