Another week, another reminder of how quickly things can change in fantasy baseball’s deep league landscape. My desk is often littered with post-its featuring names of players I might write up a little blurb on, most of whom have fantasy ownership in the 0-5% range. What a difference a few days or a week can […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?So I’ve been trying to look for silver livings when it comes to the slow starts of the hitters I have rostered in my deepest leagues and I’ve come up with this: at least I have a sense of calm knowing there’s really nothing I can do about it. While I actually had to stop […]

As the month of April draws to a close this weekend, it’s a good time to take a moment and realize just how early it is in the world of fantasy baseball, especially once we remember that the season started a week late due to that pesky lockout. Earlier this week, just when I was […]

We’re three weeks into April, the season is in full swing, and that weird lockout nightmare that we all suffered through for most of the winter feels like a fuzzy memory. It’s still early, but we probably all have a completely new outlook on the fantasy baseball landscape. For the moment my offseason obsessions with […]

Hello, deep league friends! The season is just now a week old as I type this, and my draft season is finally over as of about 48 hours ago. It is amazing looking at how differently players are being valued in the drafts I did this week, versus those I did a week ago, versus […]

By the time you read this, actual 2022 major league baseball games will have finally happened! I still have a couple more drafts before I’m officially ready to roll for the year, but in the meantime, I thought I’d look back to some of my early deep league picks to see which look like hits […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?How do we still have a week left before the season starts?! This feels like the longest pre-season ever, which is kind of surprising given that just two years ago the pre-season lasted until late July. Anyway, I’m not complaining, just a little exhausted from drafting and overwhelmed from information overload as I head into […]

It’s been another exciting week of fantasy baseball prep, Razzball friends, which for me was highlighted by my $100 RCL draft on Wednesday. We had, as expected, a group of competitive, focused drafters who never let their guards down while still having lots of fun in the draft chat. We also had — not as […]

Gotta start this with another quick RCL pitch; I have my first RCL draft Friday evening and I cannot wait! As much as I love me my deep leagues, I have become quite enamored with the RCL format and I think those teams provided the most fun I had playing fantasy last year. One of […]

Happy Day-After-New-CBA Day! I wrote everything below on Wednesday, and am writing this paragraph an hour or so after the CBA announcement, and I absolutely can’t wait for all of the free agent news and signings that are coming our way. In the meantime, it’s time to kick March Madness into full gear, and by […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This is a very different post than I thought I’d be writing this week. I’ll refrain from going on for paragraphs about how sad, frustrated, disappointed, and angry I am regarding the current state of major league baseball, even though it’s admittedly tempting to just vent uncontrollably right now. I truly thought this post would […]

Last week we chatted about deep league starting pitchers outside the top 300 ADP that we might consider taking a flier on, and this week we’ll get even crazier and bump it down to a few pitchers outside the current top 400 NFBC ADP. Obviously, you’re not going to want to put too much faith in anyone at this point in a draft in even the deepest leagues, but it doesn’t take too much production for picks this late to be worthwhile, and of course, there is little risk given that you’re not passing much up to get them.
