Pirates rookie starting pitcher slash phenom slash heart throb thrash Livvy Dunne’s boyfriend Paul Skenes followed up his much anticipated debut last week with an even more impressive outing going six hitless innings, allowing just one walk and striking out 11 Cubs for his first career win, but definitely not his last. Skenes was absolutely […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Juan Soto was sent to the Padres for MacKenzie Gore, C.J. Abrams, Robert Hassell III, James Wood and Jarlin Susana. To quote someone talking to the last person, “Oh, Susana.” That was only 18 months ago! I’m Mr. Trade Prospects For Now. That is me! And A.J. Preller is my father. Call me Trade Prospects […]
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?I really enjoy golfing, and I’m sure I’m not alone–there’s got to be a lot of Happy Gilmore wannabe’s out there in Razzball Nation. Golf may be the hardest sport to be good at (outside of hitting a baseball from a major league pitcher?), due in part to the dozens of things that have to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?There are three teams that have generated bottom of the barrel offensive stats for the season and into this recent stretch of play: CWS, MIA, and COL. COL and CWS are on the road facing capable SPs while MIA is at home facing the rookie flamethrower, Christian Scott. OAK enjoyed a run of hot power […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?“Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?2013 was when “twerk” and “selfie” were added to the dictionary. 2013 was when Paul Walker died in a car crash. RIP. 2013 was when Edward Snowden made it snow upon the intelligence community from Hong Kong. Man, 2013 seems like a lifetime ago. 2013 was also when Kevin Pillar made his MLB debut. He’s […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Come over here. Quietly. In the corner of the room, away from the rest of the party. Ignore JKJ and Coolwhip’s invitation to play Pin the Crown on the Jo Adell. Yes, Keelin just broke the knee of another party-goer so she can breathlessly describe the extent of the injury to a captive and frightened audience, and also finally live out her iTonya fantasy. Don’t mind Bdon, he’s 12 White Claw’s deep and ranting at a potted plant regarding his Bo Bichette vindication tour. Please give no attention to Grey, he is once again Golden Godding on the rooftop, enjoying the pyrrhic victory that is every Oneil Cruz home run. And the rest of the crew? They’re out getting whippets and vapes because they’re one in the same, right?
Please, blog, may I have some more?What is up party people? Sigh, another week, another promising young outfielder hits the IL. Jung Hoo Lee wasn’t lighting the world on fire just yet but there were signs he was about to take flight. Then he dislocated his shoulder in a collision with the wall and his timeline to return is uncertain, with the worst case timeline being the rest of the season. We should have some clarity in the coming days, but I’m fearful it will be a lengthy stay on the IL. So far he has been replaced in center field by Luis Matos who was a top prospect just a short time ago. He has big time potential but struggled in the majors last season which is why he’s been in AAA. Now that injuries to the rest of the Giants hitters have given him a chance to play everyday, it’s up to him to put it all together and show off his talent. His numbers in AAA haven’t been great but he has hit the ground running since his call up and that makes him worth taking a shot on. Now lets look at some other potential replacement options, starting with some guys from last week and then we’ll see who’s hot.
Please, blog, may I have some more?The 2024 Major League Baseball season is now seven weeks old (a quarter of the way done!), which means we finally have meaningful numbers that count to start evaluating our fantasy squads. With only 27 weeks in the fantasy baseball season, even a few weeks of information should help guide us to decisions about who […]
