In case your offseason of binge drinking and crack smoking (in case Andy Dick is a reader), a quick reminder the Royals develop pitching well. That bumps up against being a cheap-ass organization and Noah Cameron looks like he’s been ready since 2024. Alas, he’s here now and last year he went 138 1/3 IP […]

Alex Bregman signed with the Cubs and this is legit a brain puzzler. I’m gobsmacked! I’m besides myself and the me next to me is wearing the Riddler’s leotards with question marks all over them. I’ve been hoodwinked and bamboozled! C’mon, thesaurus, lay on me another one! I’m speechless. Here: Uhh. Dot dot dot. What? […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The goal of a trade is to get the better of your opponent. “Suckers,” is what you’re hoping to scream at your trade partners. Let them feel your wrath but brain-wise. Actually, BrainWise is what you think they call you in your league. Like Pennywise, but with brains. “Don’t trade with BrainWise,” is what you […]

You know what kind of fantasy baseball sleeper Ryan Pepiot is? A lay-up. Now it’s up to me to prove that. Once upon a time, Itch placed Ryan Pepiot in the top 100 prospects. There was talk when he was on the Dodgers, as a prospect, he might be an ace in the making. Here […]

Oh, I absolutely wanted to give up on Jack Leiter. [snapping my fingers and shaking my tailfeather] What have you done for me lately, boy? What have you done lately for me? Nothing? Then I must ask you to leave. Goodbye. That’s how I felt, when I looked at his name. Just his name, by […]

Tatsuya Imai signed with the Astros for an incredibly reasonable price (3-year, $54 million) and I have to be honest with you, I’m starting to get worried. We’re still a year out from a potential work stoppage, but it’s starting to feel like a lot of teams are in Hold Mode. And not Hold Mode […]

Emmet Sheehan came back from Tommy John last year, almost exactly 13 months from the surgery, and went 2.82 ERA, 0.97 WHIP with 10.9 K/9, 2.7 BB/9 in 73 1/3 IP. Um, how is he a sleeper? He’s an ace. Is he not an ace? Sure, he has five guys in front of him that […]

So, I’m not sure if Chase Burns is a sleeper, a rookie, both or something in-between we haven’t discovered yet. Maybe we’re discovering it on our own right now. We’re a bunch of fantasy baseball Magellans. Look at me, I’m wearing a puffy hat like Magellan and I’m in a ship with a handheld telescope. […]

Went back and searched my posts for every mention of the word “sleeper” until the All-Star Break. So, if I said, “(player’s name) was going to be a 2026 fantasy baseball sleeper,” I made note of it with a slash. By the time I was done, if you put the Dominic Canzone slashes on a […]

Look at position eligibility like this, you have a toolbox filled with different positions, and you need a certain position for a certain hole in your lineup, or a screw for a certain hole to secure a latch. If you use the wrong screw, then the latch will be loose and you’ll need to translate […]

There’s this thing that happens with fantasy baseballers (<–my mom’s term). They get crazy excited about a prospect being called up. A rookie gets their goose-willies pumping through their chest. Prospects with pedigree who have never had a moment of MLB play? That’s the rookie nookie the people love. Show me a guy with a […]
