So far this season Tyler Wells has seemingly done the impossible. One would think with a K-BB% barely above nine (9!) in the AL East there would be a culling. And yet, he continues to evade hitters and limit the damage. What is letting him get away with this and avoid getting smashed? Those questions […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Taken as a top 20 pitcher in drafts at the beginning of the year, Lucas Giolito hasn’t really lived up to the hype we were hoping for when he was taken as top pitcher coming off some statistically promising years in 2019-2021. Giolito started the season off well this year carrying a 2.63 ERA (2.93 […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?There were several names I could lead off with this week as we revisit the outfield, umm, field. But is there anyone hitting the ball better right now than Aaron Judge? I think not. There’s nothing quite like a prime athlete in his contract year that feels like he’s been slighted in preseason contract negotiations. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I benched Zach Eflin in my weekly leagues last week. There, I said it. Even us “analysts” can get it wrong from time to time. You think you have a beat on something and then a small round ball with randomly changed rules on stitching misses bats just the right way and then you are […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This week is a big shuffle-up now that we have more data to go. Injuries are being factored in, players have been pushed down, hot starts are being factored in, and the cream is rising to the top. Of some of that cream, is a couple of Tommys that are surpassing expectations… Holy Schnikes! Tommy […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I had to pivot last night. I could have gone with a few pitchers for today I’ve been keeping tabs on, but those can wait another week, I had already hinted at Naylor in last week’s outfielder post, but now he deserves a bit more attention. Josh Naylor went 3-for-5, 2 HR, 8 RBIs, one […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I have no words for how this season has started (proceeds to write 1500 words). The Angels are leading the AL West and I don’t know what to do with myself. Do they have the most potent outfield in the majors? For the first month they do at least. In a season where the league […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The Intro Last year after showing up to camp with improved velocity, Trevor Rogers was a huge breakout pitcher. I was lucky enough to grab him on a few teams and thusly reap those benefits. He was touching 97/98 mph after previously averaging 93 on his fastball. The velocity gains proved to be a difference-maker. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I wasn’t sure what I wanted to look at this early in the season. It’s still so early, what can we take away from roughly two weeks of games and many starters just barely having thrown 2 starts. Lorenzen had an intriguing debut for the Angels but an underwhelming second start. His command was not […]

Okay, Razzers, one more outfield post to start the year while I get my footing. I’ll be back to the deep-diving next week after we get a full week plus of games to digest and I can process pitchers with at least 2 starts under their belt and more than 4.2 inning starts. So why […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro Yes Razzers, I’m back one more time to give a final rundown on the eve of the baseball season. There has been a flurry of last-minute moves and announcements this week and these all need to be accounted for. “Last bus stop” is not only because spring training is coming to a close but […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Intro Greetings Razzers, it’s another hot season here at Razzball, and have I got a treat for you. This year’s preseason edition of outfield rankings done by yours truly will now feature outfield TIERS. Everybody loves tiers. However, these aren’t just your everyday run-of-the-mill tiers, No sir (/ma’am). These are Coolwhip’s latest labor of love […]
