The Reds are paying Ke’Bryan Hayes through 2029. I will now snort-laugh for the next ten minutes and, afterwards, I will take a long-awaited siesta. Doing a quick google, “Has any team ever said to a player, ‘Nah, homey, you are awful, we’re gonna make you a fielding coach?” Google responds, “Using the colloquial ‘homey’ […]

Pirates Spilling Over With E. Valdez Callup
May 21, 2026 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 164 Commentsby: Grey
As with all prospect call-ups, I like to get familiar with them, so I went to look at Esmerlyn Valdez and I was greeted by a 22-year-old Craig Monroe. I might be crazy with that comp. I went to look at Craig Monroe highlights (that’s how crazy I am), then watched Esmerlyn’s, and I can’t […]

This is going to be the most Drew Anderson-coded Tanner Bibee post, as the kids say. Drew Anderson went 4 2/3 IP, 0 ER, 4 baserunners, 7 Ks, ERA at 3.98, as he started a game for the 1st time since 2021. You remember 2021. That was the year you told your friend he was […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Royce Lewis sent to Triple-A. Hmm, let’s see the Twins’ top hitting prospects of the last few years: Luke Keaschall, Brooks Lee, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Matt Wallner, Spencer Steer, Edouard Julien, Drew Gilbert, Trevor Larnach, Royce Lewis, Jose Miranda, Ben Rortvedt, and Redfin Smart Shopper, Alex Kirilloff. Quite the track record. It just so happens that […]

May 18, 2026 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 268 Commentsby: Grey
On the Crews ship, lollipop, it’s a sweet trip to a post-hype prospect shop, where batting average [makes armpit fart noises] plops… Because my browser history is more than a little full with google searches a’la [baseball player name] + stats, let’s just say Dylan Crews + stats wasn’t the first Dylan to get pulled […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Mariners are calling up Colt Emerson and I started screaming tridents up so loud I blacked out and hit my head. I woke up in the city of Atlantis. I said to the fish people, “Gggggrgggegggh.” And they said back to me, “Gggggrgggegggh.” How pleasant. I asked them if they had any thoughts on Colt […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?ChatGPT, please explain to me Zack Gelof‘s fantasy value. “Naturally, Grey, here’s what Grey Albright of Razzball says–” Um, ChatGPT, “I am Grey Albright of Razzball.” “Of course! That is a great distinction! Zack Gelof’s fantasy value is solid power and speed but will hurt you in average. You’re going to want hitters in Bing […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Jacob Misiorowski (7 IP, 0 ER, 4 hits, zero walks 10 Ks, ERA at 2.12) needs to get through a whole season without losing his command like he did in the 2nd half of last year. Still a lot of time for that to happen. Remember, we all thought he might be the best rookie […]

April 13th was the last time Paul Skenes walked a hitter. It was James Wood, the NL leader in walks. Last night, Paul Skenes struck out the side in the first two innings, then Willi Castro laid down a bunt to open the third, because, as Biff once said, he’s chicken! In those first two […]
