But the real game is played on the field and managed by those who wear the uniform. And no one has had an impact on […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Now that Juan Pierre has lost his starting job to Andre Ethier, one question hangs over the fantasy baseball community like the smog over Chavez Ravine: What will happen to Juan Pierre’s power numbers? While the expected reduction in ABs will cut down on his RBI opportunities, we think the additional time off plus a […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Some random observations as I prep for 2 normal drafts and 1 Razzball draft in the next couple days… Is there anything more fruitless than trying to make preseason trades? Unless someone did auto-drafts or accidentally picked a guy, we all picked our players for a reason. We think they’re good value at that pick. […]

HQ has him 72nd and your player rater has him 22nd for batters in mixed 12 team regular 5×5. HQ assigns $ values but I think it’s effectively the same thing. PECOTA likes Dunn so i assume the difference […]

No positions have fewer bargains in the draft. This post is to make sure you don’t pay scalper rates. Below is a comparison of middle infielder value comparing Average Draft Position (ADP) on MockDraftCentral.com vs our […]
