Kelder does have a first name but only his Mom uses it. He's been playing fantasy sports since before the internet had sites to do it. Not a member of any important organization but he thinks he's super funny! When not consuming baseball, he enjoys church coffee and food in larger quantities than his doctor would like.

I have been humbled this weekend by the injury genie. Of course, a genie is supposed to grant wishes, right? Well, then, mean fantasy genie, why have you taken my two breakout picks, Triston Casas and Josh Jung? If you missed it, Casas went down with a weird rib thing and had quotes like “I’m […]

The first few weeks of a season are fraught with peril. It’s not like other sports in baseball. For football, you have a 100 yard week with 2 TD, yeah, he’s a pickup. In hoops, a guy spikes to 28 minutes and double doubles, get that guy on your team. Baseball, you get 3 HR […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?My current situation is in a doctor’s office, needle in my arm, drawing my precious droplets of blood for a physical to check something. That something, dear readers and trolls, is triglycerides. I’m fairly active, get 5 days of exercise a week, do pushups almost daily, and only eat one serving for meals. The trouble […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I’m not gonna lie, I was gonna mail this one in. It’s only been five days of games at this writing, and of course, you can’t make decisions on a small sample size. What in the name of Bill James are you trying to do there? Of course, baseball being baseball, we needed here in […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Attack is a strong word, but hey, it’s a snazzy title and someone on the internet said one time that the headline is like really really important so I am darn proud of it. Speaking of attack, or not actually, I’m sure you all have a home league, one that will forever and furthermore live […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I talked about this last week, if you want a last minute ranks page with all the names Gray has one right here. Quite helpful. My method here is basically to just pick 20 guys, and rank them according to how I think they’ll perform. This can be narrative based, statistically based, or sometimes just […]

What up Razzball Nation? I’m back for year two on the corner infield beat. Grey said that my writing wasn’t quite up to snuff, so he sent me to a sherpa, who imbued upon me much knowledge. He also tried to make me sit still and like meditate or something, which clearly is not a […]

Since we have last spoken, or read, Razzball has been bumping with new content. I would suggest you read it, it’s really good content for your draft prep. Speaking of content for draft prep, I think I’ll be reading a lot of prospect content! I’ve hated prospects for quite some time, I’m told on social […]

When I was a younger man, before kids and young enough to still fancy myself a good bit of cool, having swag as the kids say nowdays, I was a bit of a music snob. Well, that’s not true. I thought I was a music snob. I was truly the only person in the world […]

One time, back when I lived in the cornfields of Iowa, I thought I was being a smooth operator and went to a farmhouse with a girl. Took out the 4 wheeler, drove around, everything was great. We peeled into an open field when the cows came. No, not just a couple cows. This was […]

It’s the most intimidating and scariest time of the year in a dynasty offseason: free agency. Am I overvaluing guys? Am I missing out by being too cheap? How do I even bid?

I got a trade vetoed by the trade committee.
I traded Bret Baty for two prospects, Jefferson Rojas and Haydn McGeary. I was selling low on Baty, and buying a couple of prospects that I thought would breakout this year. The trade was vetoed, and I’m totally fine with it. I fully expected to have some minor hiccups like this along the way and that’s why there’s a trade committee in the first place.
