Full disclosure: I am about to rip off a topic. Ryan Bloomfield and Brian Entrekin (KC Bubba) of the Bubba and The Bloom podcast and Discord have created the “Jean Segura All-Stars”. The idea is that Jean Segura, who generally had an excellent real-life and Fantasy career, was someone we all tended to just keep […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?One thing we all learn quickly in Fantasy baseball is Object Permenance…or really lack thereof. Just when we are sure we have a handle on playing time, it changes on a dime, often for no perceptible reason. The Rays always confound us, but oddly enough, they have a predictable lineup for the moment. Lots of […]

As we chug towards the halfway mark of the season later this month, let’s take a step back and check out who’s hot and who’s not. The “Not” guys really don’t merit much action, I just thought it was worth noting their overall good stat lines don’t tell the whole story. This also isn’t at […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The MLB season is really short in that it seems to just fly by every year. We’re drafting in late winter/early spring and anxiously awaiting to see if we nailed it. Then you blink and the season is a *insert measure of time* of the way done already. It’s also long in that teams and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. We’re roughly two months into the season, high time to update our Outfielder rankings! These are rankings for 15 team re-draft leagues for the rest of the season, since that’s most of what I play. Any stats in the book are just that….in the book. I’m […]

We have officially passed the quarter pole. We’ve also passed the Preakness, which reminds me that the quarter pole in horse racing is actually the marker that the race has a quarter mile to go, not that it’s ¼ done. Thus, there is no quarter pole in baseball so I shouldn’t use that phrase even […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?With 20% of the season in the books, we have a fair number of additions to our outfield pool. It, of course, varies from format to format. Yahoo seems to require that you just need to own an outfield glove, or think about buying one. Others are 5 or 10 games. Anyways, I wanted to […]

We are somehow already a month into the 2025 season! It’s high time to update my top 100 outfielder rankings. These are rankings from right now going forward. Well, almost right now, the stats I reference are as of Sunday. The rankings are based on a 15 team NFBC league, I’ll throw in the change […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This is probably the last week where I start my article by saying, “hey, it’s still early”. So let me get that out of the way now. “Hey, it’s still early.” Skill indicators do stabilize ahead of the bottom line numbers we all need on our teams. Stabilization itself is a confusing concept. It doesn’t […]

We are nearly 10% of the way into the MLB season, high time to make snap judgements on all our teams and every player in the league. So let’s gather around the Festivus table and find the outfielders who have most disappointed us over the past two+ weeks. I thought of searching in the crawl […]

Now that we are a week into the season, I have the total urge to make judgements on all my players and teams. On one hand, you do have to act quickly. If you wait for a batter to take like 5 good swings, you’re often too late. On the other hand, do you really […]

Drafting season is basically in the books. It’s now officially time to take victory laps on all your great picks. No, one half week of a 162 game season is absolutely not too soon. I drafted Wilyer Abreu as an afterthought 5th outfielder on a Main Event team and he has made Red Sox Nation […]
