Sorry about not being around for all you Razzballeroos last week. When life gets busy, my secondary loves of fantasy baseball and gambling take a backseat to real life youth baseball and travel. Sometimes it’s tough to find an hour or two to put together the dynamic articles you know and love when it comes […]

Here we are. Back with SAGNOF stories once again as we approach Memorial Day. Had to skip last week’s article as real life sometimes gets in the way of Fantasy life, and between the full time job and travel and the kid’s sports seasons just couldn’t find the time any evenings last week to whip […]

Like anything else at Razzball, I strive to find humor in the face of Fantasy Baseball. I devote this article to Razzball reader and commenter Brent who wrote last week in the comments, “Such a strange article. How can an article about steals not even mention Jacob Young.

Well, he did it again. By he I mean Elly De La Cruz. 6 stolen bases and counting since the last SAGNOF article dropped, including a steal of home (granted it was a double steal and the throw got into Center Field, but still.) The most impressive thing so far has been the improved patience […]

What a time to be alive. The era of the stolen base is is here to stay and I am loving it. Just take a look at the Stolen Base leaderboard below. We are barely ten games into the season and we’ve got guys on pace for 100 steals. We have 16 players who have […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well if the start of this season doesn’t send home the message we’ve been preaching for years in regards to SAGNOF here at Razzball I don’t know what will. It stands for Steals/Saves Ain’t Got NO Face. Meaning, you can find these things on the waiver wire, don’t over-invest during the draft. It always rings […]
