The San Diego Padres make a major big boy move on Friday acquiring Miami Marlins second baseman and back-to-back batting champ Luis Arraez. Luis batted .354 in 147 games in 2023 and .316 in 144 games in 2022. The .354 was the highest season average for a player since 2010 and my dude holds an […]

Weekly Razzball news delivered straight to your inbox.
Friends, welcome back to Razzball Ambulance Chasers, your weekly fantasy baseball injury report. Either this week’s batch of injuries were less devastating than usual or my new emotional baseline around baseball injuries is “terror”. I mean, sure, Mike Trout and Byron Buxton are injured again (expected). And I am wondering if Nolan Jones is Kris […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hey, look at this! I got two tickets for the Astros’ Broadway remake of Weekend at Bernie’s! How cool is this? You know I’ll be seated! Later, the lights dim and the curtains go up. On stage, there’s a home plate with an impatient ump and catcher. The ump yells, “This is going to be […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s finally a new month! That shouldn’t really mean anything in terms of baseball statistics and how they impact my fantasy teams, but if any of the slow-starting hitters that I’m rostering think that changing the calendar page will help them get going, maybe it actually will help them get going, which would be fine […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Now that it’s May, we can stop saying “It’s only April” when we look at our teams and get frustrated that our guys aren’t producing as expected. This is a great time to make some moves, however, as the stats are starting to get “sticky” in that there are enough accrued to make some judgments […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Sometimes, less is more. My recent articles have been lengthy and if you can check out some of the teaching points in those, you will likely benefit and understand today’s thoughts a bit better. The Cardinals get to face B(r)ad Keller whose one positive data point is his high ground ball rate. San Diego and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Mets are promoting Christian Scott to the majors this weekend–[presses finger to ear] “Yes, I can hear you? What happened? As soon as they gave him the news he was promoted to the Mets Christian Scott became…bad? How does that happen? I see, so as soon as they said the word ‘Mets,’ he suddenly lost […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Click HERE. Now sing this: Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if after all these years you’d draft me. To put the past aside. They say that time’s supposed to heal ya, but I ain’t done much hitting. Hello, are you still there? I’m in Los Angeles of Anaheim of Alhambra of Artesia dreaming about […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?One might believe that being privy to the secretive goings-on at Razzball gives one access to information quicker than your average Joe Q. Public, and one would be absolutely correct in making such a bold declaration. Upon hearing there was not one, but two features on Jo Adell coming down the old Razzball pipeline, my brain did the only thing that seemed logical. I decided to avoid mentioning Jo Adell in order to not clog the blog arteries with too much rich and redundant content.
Please, blog, may I have some more?What is up party people? Elly De La Cruz is on one heck of a tear right now and I regret not getting more shares of him. I will be the first to admit that I thought his ADP was too rich for my blood going into the season mainly due to his strikeouts. I will also be the first to admit that despite a 36% strikeout rate, he has still been amazing. That is truly impressive. He’s got the power (8) and he’s got the speed (18) to be a star. Honestly, it’s surprising that he only has 5 doubles with those kind of wheels. I still have some concerns there will be some rough patches from the Ks but he’s good enough to be productive in spite of that. Consider this my apology to Elly for ever doubting him.
