This post is not meant to scream fire in the theater of Razzball. I’m not saying don’t draft these guys. I’m not unfriending them. I would hide all of their stupid Mafia Wars updates. I’m just saying you need to be aware of certain concerns that I’ve kept to myself about these players. I’m unburdening […]

There’s no Reyes, Rollins or Hanley on this list of shortstops. This list is guys that can be had later in your drafts if you’ve punted shortstop or are still looking for a middle infielder. Look at this as a supplement to the top 20 shortstops of 2011 fantasy baseball. If you’re feeling especially adventurous, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Neftali Feliz is now a starter. Or is he? Emphasis on the ‘or.’ Or is it on the ‘is?’ You’ll never know! Muahahahahaha… Yeah, I don’t think Feliz is going to be a starter. They got to the World Series the way things were, you change that? Ogando or O’Day or Oliver or… What’s with […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Chris Carpenter left yesterday’s spring training game with a strained hammy. That sounds delicious! Unless, of course, you’ve drafted him already. Then you’re like, “Jesus, Carpenter!” But you shouldn’t have drafted him already. You really shouldn’t draft until the last possible second in March. You don’t want to lose your league before the season even […]

2011 Fantasy Baseball Draft, 12 Team, NL-Only
March 1, 2011 | 2011 Fantasy Baseball Draft | 86 Commentsby: Grey
So we had our first draft. Rudy and I. We drafted a pretty badass team if this were 2004. Maybe they can show this draft on ESPN Classic. If I can somehow bait my leaguemates into my DeLorean, I could win this league. Rudy’s a bit of a fantasy baseball cougar, so let’s blame him. […]

Head-to-Head, or H2H if you’re into abbreviations that look like R&B groups, doesn’t change a lot from our 2011 fantasy baseball rankings. There are 300 billion suns in the Milky Way galaxy. There are 100s of billions of galaxies in the universe. There are at least 256,000 planets exactly like Earth. Yet, there’s one Albert […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? 2nd Basemen to Target, 2011 Fantasy Baseball
February 28, 2011 | Uncategorized | 57 Commentsby: Grey
Between the two middle infield positions, I tend to draft a 2nd baseman early and punt shortstop. This happens for a few reasons. 1) 2nd base has more talent. That’s right, I draft the deeper position earlier. Same reason I punt catchers and try to get a 1st baseman early. If a position is deep, […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Well, there’s better young pitchers that I could go over. Shizz, there’s better pitchers in the Padres farm system — hello, Simon Castro. But the whole idea of these posts is not to pinpoint who’s going to be a great pitcher in 2013. This is about who is actually going to help you this year […]

He’s also touched upon some fantasy […]

Tommy John surgery, Dr. Freeze, Adam Wainwright. Words you just don’t want to hear. Okay, not Dr. Freeze as much unless you only get your news from Razzball, which I’m fine with but you may walk around calling people schmohawks and telling your girlfriend her meatloaf was kinda yawnstipating. Rudy totally called this one! (Just […]
