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.

So apparently this show called Succession ended. I have not watched a single episode, and I probably never will. If you did, I hope you enjoy it. This is a pattern for The Educator. Game of Thrones? I missed the show, still waiting for a book to come out. Sopranos? What is that, a choir […]

When I started thinking about ranks, I of course went to the Player Rater. This time, I didn’t make my editor mad and go to a different site. It’s all Razzball, baby. This week, I’m going to compare guys in the RazzSlam ADP (which doesn’t include me yet so it’s skewed of course.) Aside from […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Third base has been an incredibly difficult position to navigate in the first quarter of the season. It’s as hard as trying to navigate kids’ newfangled cool expressions. Note to everyone: Slay is a funny joke. It’s great to drop a “Yass Queen.” Just don’t call someone zesty. They are liable to call you a […]

Groupthink is a powerful drug in fantasy baseball. Pre season draft lists are often very similar. Literally everyone I saw had Nolan Arenado ranked 6. Alex Bregman was ranked 7. In first base, everyone had Pete Alonso in the late second. Jose Abreu went 6 pretty much everywhere. The group can be wrong. And I […]

Extra Credit to the first person in the comments who can tell me what classic song lyric is referenced in the title! The first two weeks of marriage. The first day in a new job. The first 30 minutes of a date. All of these are meaningless sample sizes. Well, not exactly. Each of these […]

Finally. A month in. We made it. All the smart people on the Tweeter machine have told you to be patient and wait to see what’s real and what is not. The time for patience has ended. The time for judgment has arrived. The time has come for us to determine who is real and […]

I try to not be reactionary. I know it’s a marathon, not a sprint. I also know that I will not be running a marathon or a sprint any time soon. Why on earth would you run a marathon? That’s like over 20 miles. That’s more than I have run in my entire life altogether. […]

So who is The Educator, anyway? I was a blessed Midwest child who had my JV baseball home field in my backyard. For many reasons, I’ve always been a baseball fan, not the least of which that it was the only sport I was coordinated enough to play. Soccer? Quit because I didn’t want to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I would give myself a 60 grade on parenting. Solid, all star level father. Lots of strengths and only one 20 grade. That would be building toys. Legos, especially, are the bane of my existence. I hate them. I always have. When my brilliant daughter wanted to do a building competition, I could only build […]

It seems like this is bold predictions week here at Razzball. My first bold prediction is that using the Razzball tools will help you win. Just sign up already, okay? Bold Predictions: Andrew Vaughn hits .290 with 40 HR: Has anyone had a worse setup than Vaughn in the majors? Top pick, missed 2020, then […]

Third Base Ranks Trends: After the first four in my ranks, there’s a HUGE dropoff and then a cliff after like 8 guys. Luckily, the top four are all legitimate choices in the first or second round. Might need to reach on a guy somewhere or take the (legitimate) chance that Yoan Moncada rediscovers his […]

The Educator here, and I’m dealing from the corner. And with my first sentence, I mix drugs and school. Solid start. First base rankings, right here. This is an initial ranking, based on some weird thoughts I have which I will detail. I’m mainly going to focus on the ranks that I have that are […]
