I’m not gonna lie, deep league friends, there’s probably not a lot of hope out there in most of your free agent pools if you’re looking to stop the flow of a polluted stream of fantasy disappointment. My good friend-who-I’ve-never-met, Son (who knows quite a bit about unearthing possible fantasy gems!) recently thanked me for […]

Ah, remember back to February, when all of our fantasy baseball hopes and dreams were alive and well, as we looked forward to what we imagined would be a beautiful season free of major injuries and disappointing performances from our top players? I remember discovering that I’d gotten first pick in one of my 15-team […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hello deep leaguers, and happy Memorial Day weekend! It’s an odd time in the baseball year; in a way it still feels like it just started, but most teams have played more than 50 games at this point, so in actuality we’re almost one-third of the way through the season. SO much can happen from […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Greetings, deep league friends! As we inch closer to summer, things are both literally and metaphorically heating up, at least in some places in terms of the weather, and at least in some players in terms of their hitting. It’s also getting closer to that time where I start to worry about who isn’t ever […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s been another brutal week friends, at least for any fantasy baseball type who has (had?) Willson Contreras rostered, or for any sentient human being who just doesn’t enjoy seeing other humans in excruciating physical and emotional pain, and watched the reply of Contreras’ injury. His 6-8 week recovery timetable sounds awfully optimistic, and even […]

It’s finally a new month! That shouldn’t really mean anything in terms of baseball statistics and how they impact my fantasy teams, but if any of the slow-starting hitters that I’m rostering think that changing the calendar page will help them get going, maybe it actually will help them get going, which would be fine […]

Okay, this injury thing is getting ridiculous. It was bad enough when it was just the pitchers and an occasional hitter, but now I have teams where I have two or three of my most valuable offensive players who’ve just disappeared to the IL overnight. I never like to think about quitting on a fantasy […]

Happy Friday, Deepies! Hope things are going as well as possible for you and your teams in the world of fantasy baseball. I for one have gotten a brutal reminder of how quickly things can get ugly for a deep league offense that was humming right along, losing Seiya Suzuki and Ozzie Albies in the […]

Okay, I’m sick of talking about all of the pitcher injuries, but how can we not be constantly talking about it at this point? I’m not sure exactly where I fall on the cause of all of it, but my instinct is that it has a lot less to do with the pitch clock, and […]

Happy April! We’re one week into the season now, and personally, I feel like it’s been much longer. Sure, it’s beyond wonderful to have baseball back, but some of the pitching has been… well, disappointing so far (like, disappointing enough that I feel it’s taking months off my life). Luckily I didn’t have a ton […]

Happy Day After The Best Day Of The Year! As I write this, my house is literally shaking a little bit because of the opening day flyover that is zooming right over it, headed a few miles away to Dodger Stadium, and it’s hard not to get emotional as I settle in to see what […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy Spring! Always seems weird that we officially start spring just as spring training is ending, not beginning, but I’m not worried about that right now since I’m just happy that it’s finally baseball season. Last week we talked about players whose value had risen, or was likely rising, or might rise soon, for one […]
