Hey there, Razzballers! Your friendly neighborhood Coolwhip has finally survived sick season, snow days, and winter hibernation. I’m back with a fresh season of deep dives into the world of pitching studs, and this time, I’m zeroing in on the next big name making waves across the Pacific: Roki Sasaki. You’ve probably heard of him […]

Hey Razzfaithful, back in the saddle after returning from a family vacation. With renewed clarity and a sunburn, I’m ready to take on a midseason review of my sleepers and deep dives from the early going. Call it a furthering need for authenticity. I do my best to practice this with my work and family, […]

Intro It’s time for another outfield update as we enter the dog days of summer. Since our last update, Aaron Judge has taken over the top spot and the league as he caught fire like the surface of the sun. No one is hotter than he. But Heliot Ramos is coming close, and his name […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Sometimes when a player is called up they find instant success like Jared Jones. And others, despite a great track record, experience a few growing pains as they adjust to the MLB level. Gavin Stone was shelled early and often during 2023 in his first taste of the majors despite finishing 2022 as the Dodgers’ […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro Forgive this tired and abused Angels fan, but I didn’t believe this day would ever come. After seeing the team change managers and the same old tired routine of paying for replacement outfielders while Jo Adell would rot in Salt Lake hitting bomb after bomb, I didn’t think he’d ever get this chance. They […]

Intro This continues to be one of the more interesting seasons as we approach the end of April that I can remember. Between the calamity of keeping up with baseball injuries, coaching my son’s tee ball team, and watching Shogun, I find myself struggling to find time to take a deep breath and retreat into […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro If only Joe Ryan had waited one more week to showcase a big “breakout” game. I have been holding him close to the vest waiting for a few more data points before planting my flag on a post-breakout re-breakout. I was watching him covertly take the next big step before making a big statement. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro Forgive me if I’m a bit out of it right now. After the Shane Bieber injury, I searched for life’s meaning in a few liquor bottles. I didn’t quite find the answers I was looking for; but give me a minute, I’ll find them somewhere down there… Anywho, time for another update to the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro I could have written a sleeper post about Shane Bieber, and almost did, but ultimately chose not to. However, if you all paid attention during the offseason and drafting season you likely noticed a trend with my work. Shane Bieber kept showing up here, there, and everywhere. He’s my bold prediction, my AL CY […]

Intro Happy Opening Day to everyone except Ippei! This is my favorite time of the year. Spring is sprung, everyone is huffing hopium (EWB’s word), and we all get to talk about the excitement of baseball. It’s a magical time. And this, my final draft of each season with my fellow writers/analysts here at Razzball, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro Free agency has become quite the topic this year with Scott Boras’ leading his clients to wait out the clock to sign big contracts only to end up with decent Average Annual Value (AAV) short-term contracts with player-friendly opt-outs after the first year. Which, is really wild when you think about it, and feels […]

Intro Greetings Razzers, I’m back at it for another season of Top 100 Outfielders. As before, I will calculate the rest-of-season outfield ranks into TIERS. Everybody loves tiers. Tiers are like onions, and onions have layers. Tiers and layers, onions and parfaits. However, these aren’t just your everyday run-of-the-mill tiers, No sir (/ma’am/et al). These, […]
