Twins RHP Mick Abel (24) bullied a lineup built mostly of backup Braves, recording six strikeouts in three scoreless innings. I don’t care much about the lineup, actually, because Abel looked excellent, spotting a 97 mile an hour fastball and sweepy slider time after time. He got taken out into the field a bit in 2025, but it was just 39 innings, and the jump from Triple-A to the major leagues proves difficult for pretty much every prospect these days.

Please, blog, may I have some more?Jurickson Profar was busted for PEDs once? Oops. Busted twice? You gotta be joking, who do you think you are, ARod? You’re not even a power hitter, what are you trying to do? C’mon, man! You seem legit like a dummy. I have no sympathy for Jurickson Profar, after having all the sympathy in the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s time for Part 3 of my OF rankings, as we go through players I have in slots 61 through 100. As I mentioned in the first part of this trilogy, I went Objective this year. I aggregated 4 projection systems for the stats, then converted them to auction values and ranked them accordingly. I […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last week, we covered why you should join an RCL, so this week, let’s start covering what to do once you’re in there. To be honest, this has all been covered somewhere on the site over the years, most often by Rudy. If you haven’t been playing in RCLs though, I could see how some […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Spring Training is here and the hype trains are ready to leave the station! On this episode of the Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, we dive into the sexy names of Spring Training that have been lighting up box scores and ask the real question: is this helium worth the brain cells lost? Konnor Griffin is […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Here, friend, are some catchers that I will be targeting at my 2026 fantasy drafts after the top options are gone. I’m not going to get into the strategy of punting catchers. Been there, half-drunkenly wrote that during the Ottoman Empire. Click on the player’s name where applicable to read more and see their 2026 […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! Deep leaguers, rejoice! We’ve arrived at your favorite stop on the Preseason Starting Pitching whirlwind that is the Top 100 Starting Pitchers list tour! Last year, I titled this one “The Next Next 100 Or No Dessert Until You Finish Your Brandon Sproats.” This was where we peeked in on the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Pitchers are going to get injured. It’s a fact (OK, maybe it doesn’t hold true 100% of the time, but you get the point). As humans, our bodies are capable of lifting an object over our heads, allowing us to unleash the object with velocity, spin, and direction, but that doesn’t mean our bodies like doing that action.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hesitant to say any pitcher was overrated for reasons. One big reason is in my 2026 fantasy baseball rankings, where it has the starter rankings, it says pretty clearly which pitchers to avoid and which pitchers to draft, so by writing that you’d — I’d, at least — would hope that you’d understand which pitchers […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Coming onto Razzball and providing player rankings and comments on draft values feels like walking onto The Great British Baking Show and telling Paul Hollywood how to make bread and cake. (I want to say Grey would be Paul in this comparison, but I think the flair for eyewear opens it up for debate.) Regardless, […]
