Grey wrote a sleeper about Dylan Cease (FD $10,900/DK $10,400) over the winter (don’t believe me? It’s right here), and, as always, we all should have listened to him. If you did, you’ve been rostering Cease and enjoying the 5th-best SP in 2022 according to the Razzball Player Rater. I’ll stop gassing up Grey at […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?There’s only about a month left of the minor league season, so it’s a great time to check in on some prospects that have really helped (or perhaps hurt) their profile in 2022. The MLB trade deadline has come and gone for the “real” baseball league, but you may still have some time in your […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?As the trade deadline approaches (August 2 is just days away now), MLB teams are scouring the also-rans in an effort to bolster their teams, patch holes, and make them the most complete team possible for meaningful September and October baseball. Part of our fun, and maybe my most enjoyable aspect of fantasy baseball, is […]

I love Streamonator. I won’t rub WD-40 all over myself in an effort to woo it or anything, but I’m not saying I didn’t buy a few gallons of it from Costco just in case, either. Most of the time, if Streamonator says it, I do it. But tonight? There must’ve been a glitch, because […]

After a period of rest, it’s important not to jump right back into really strenuous activity. According to muscleandfitness.com, here are some tips on what to do prior to strenuous activity: Eat for fuel, focusing on carbs and proteins. Peanut butter has lots of protein, right? *rips open pack of Oreos, dips in PB, clears […]

Riley Greene is Detroit’s best prospect, and since his call-up, he’s been atop the lineup pretty much every game. While he’s only hitting .245 through his first 113 plate appearances, he’s doing so with a .345 OBP while maintaining an improved 23.9% K% (which is lower than most of his minor league career) and improving […]

Tonight, like most nights, there are some really good SP options, and usually, we’re splitting hairs or getting cute trying to decide which one is the “right” one for our lineups. Maybe tonight’s just like that for you, but for me, I’m leaning heavily into the one option that’s going to be facing a lineup […]

Post-All-Star Break, the major storyline is the trade deadline–what teams are buyers, playing for the playoffs and the coin flip it is, and what teams are sellers, playing for future seasons. There’s another game at play that influences current playoff races and future seasons alike–monitoring pitcher workloads. Whether it’s the rookie without a lot of […]

One month into the year, 39-year old Charlie Morton (FD $10,000/DK $9,200) looked completely washed–over his first four starts he carried a 7.00 ERA and a 1.78 WHIP, along with barely more Ks than BBs (15:11). You’d have said “Stay the course, he can’t stay that bad.” And you’d have been right, but only in […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?What a slate of SPs going today. Chris Bassitt gets to host the Rangers, but check out his ER given up his past eight starts: 3, 3, 0, 7, 4, 1, 8, 4. This hound has spent the last month dog-wiping all over your ratios. Who else ya got, Streamonator? Joe Ryan checks in going […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?If you’ve got a younger sibling, you may remember those days when you’d take advantage of your physical/athletic superiority over them. You’d feel really big and bad if you could out-wrestle them; you’d let them get leads on you when playing sports at home, only to come back and take the lead and win at […]

We’re all here because we love baseball (on Razzball, not Earth; that’s a different “Why are we here?” discussion for another column/site). When did you know you loved it? Feel free to skip through if you just want the rankings. For me, it was before I was a teenager. My grandfather played on a small-college […]
