For everyone saying that Shohei Ohtani is doing something we’ve never seen before, I’m calling bullshit. We saw it last year by a player named Shohei Ohtani. Is it impressive? Absolutely. Are we witnessing history? I dunno. He can hit and he can pitch, and that’s awesome. But he’s a two-trick pony that’s performed the […]

Here’s what I wrote last Tuesday. Andrew Heaney has to be the most frustrating points league starting pitcher. On the surface, his numbers are fantastic. He has 52 strikeouts in 35 2/3 innings pitched across 8 starts. He has a 1.77 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP. Not too shabby. Here’s the thing, he’s pitched at […]

Ever wonder what goes on inside malamoney’s head when he’s contemplating a trade? Well if you’re anything like me, you’re at least a bit curious. What is the method to his madness? Well lucky for me I had to opportunity to sit down with the mathematical genius and get a glimpse inside his web of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?In his final season in 1966, Sandy Koufax averaged a whopping 24.2 points per start over, wait for it, 41 starts. The season before he averaged 25.9 points per start. To put it simply, those numbers are incredible. However, before his season was cut short last year, Jacob deGrom was averaging 26.2 points.

I don’t give a rat’s rear end where people speculate Juan Soto is going to end up. Seriously though, I’m tired of reading all of these posts about hypothetical packages that would be needed to land Soto. It’s not fun, or funny. I don’t find it informative either. To speculate is to assume, and you […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hunter Renfroe has 13 home runs, but his 118 points and 0.527 points per plate appearance is not roster material. He did have 31 homers last year and 33 in 2019, so the power is real. Hopefully, it returns soon. Unrelated but now related because I’m writing it, Wade Boggs surprisingly had only a 0.677 […]

In fact, no hitter has scored more fantasy points than Alvarez over the last 28 days. During that span, he has scored 120 points, with a 1.25 points per […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It sure does seem like pitchers are dropping like flies. It’s probably the same every year, but this year it’s just affecting me more than others. And you know what, I don’t like it. Not one bit. Call me cold-hearted, but I don’t care if pitchers hit the IL, as long as they aren’t on […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hey reader. Yeah, you. Yes, I am actually talking directly to you. Quick question. When you were a kid, did you ever blow Bubbles? I know you did. I just thought I’d let you know that he was asking about you. Giovanny Gallegos blows saves. He gets right down on his knees and gets to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Catcher Willson Contreras leads all catchers with 94 points. Will Smith is right behind him with 91 points in 15 fewer plate appearances. If I’m picking one I’m going with Smith. He’s in the Dodgers lineup, which has scored 55 more runs than the Cubs. Not to mention I had Smith as my preseason #2 […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Did you know that Wilmer Flores has two brothers named Wilmer? So when he introduces himself and some of his brothers, he says “Hi. I’m Wilmer. This is my brother Wilmer. And this is my other brother Wilmer.” Why couldn’t they be named Larry and Daryl! The Wilmer Flores that plays for the San Francisco […]

Welcome back to week two of Pete. In fact, like I said last week, its name might change in the coming week. To be a man of my word, Pete will now be known as RePete. Consider it Pete with a few minor modifications in playing time calculations and weighted distributions of preseason projections and […]
