Before we get into the monthly SPaRP review, I want to take just a moment to shout out the guys doing things in the opposite direction. That’s right, the guys serving as closers who have SP eligibility. You don’t see that very often, but right now we do have three of them. Jacob Latz appears to […]

Points Leagues: June Outfield Rankings
June 8, 2026 | 2026 Fantasy Baseball | 5 Commentsby: Latch-Key Kid
Here we go for another look at the outfield situation. Before we get into it, there are a couple of things that I think are worth noting. First, you’ll see that I do not currently have Aaron Judge ranked. If he wasn’t hurt, he’d obviously be in the top-3, and probably not second or third. […]

It’s the start of a new month, which means it’s time to take a look at the positional rankings again. One thing I think it is worth noting before we get into this is that these are not power rankings in response to who has been the best so far. As a result, there will […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last month, we looked at some of the surprising starts, for good and bad, around the league. Well, we’re another month in, so we’re going to do it again. However, our focus isn’t going to be on who’s been a happy surprise or disappointment for the season on the whole, but over the past month. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? Points Leagues: SPaRP Party!
May 18, 2026 | 2026 Fantasy Baseball, Fantasy Baseball Points Leagues | 5 Commentsby: Latch-Key Kid
Ok, calling it a party might be overselling it. A SPaRP Get-Together? Can we talk for a second about the term SPaRP? I get where it comes from and why it gets used. Starting Pitcher as Relief Pitcher tells you exactly what they are. Mostly irrelevant for roto leagues, but always of interest in points […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I don’t really have much to say by way of introduction this week. So we’ll just get to the rankings. The Top 12 Aaron Judge NYY Juan Soto NYM Yordan Alvarez HOU Corbin Carroll ARI Kyle Tucker LAD Julio Rodriguez SEA Cody Bellinger NYY Byron Buxton MIN James Wood WSH Jackson Chourio MIL Ronald Acuña […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last time we did this, it was after less than two weeks of action. Now we’ve got over a month of games to work with. As a result, there’s a bit more movement than there was last time. It may still not be as aggressive as you might like. That’s ok. If you really believe […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? Points League: Surprise Party
April 27, 2026 | 2026 Fantasy Baseball, Fantasy Baseball Points Leagues | 6 Commentsby: Latch-Key Kid
How common are surprise parties? Growing up, TV and movies made it seem like they were happening constantly, even though they almost never went well. In my lived experience, they are few and far between. Like with the threats of quicksand and amnesia, did the media I consumed as a youth lie to me? Or […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? Points Leagues: Relievers Who Start

Sometime shortly before or after this article goes live, MarmosDad’s weekly Top 100 Starting Pitchers will be available for you to read. Me doing a second ranking of pitchers in a given week seems silly, and doing it on the same day just wouldn’t make any sense at all. So I’m not going to do […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last week, we took a look at how infield rankings had shuffled around since the start of the season. This week, we turn our attention toward how things are currently looking in the outfield. While we do have more data to work with than we did a week ago, we’re still talking very small sample […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Draft season is full of hopes and dreams and imagining best-case scenarios. Then the games start, and reality smacks you in the face. Alas. It’s too early to have any drastic changes to the rankings, as the sample size is just way too small. It doesn’t mean that feelings about particular players doesn’t change at all, […]

March 30, 2026 | 2026 Fantasy Baseball, Fantasy Baseball Points Leagues | 2 Commentsby: Latch-Key Kid
Now that the season has begun, the question turns to what to do in this space each week. At least once a month, I will provide an update on how I rank guys across the various positions. But as we are just a few days into the season, it seems a bit soon to do […]
