Who doesn’t love a good comeback story? Mickey Rourke, Jamie Walters, Wilco’s Sky Blue Sky after a very hit or miss, A Ghost is Born… Now there’s Edwin Jackson. Last night, he pitched a gem. 7 2/3 IP, 1 ER with 89 pitches. I love prospects that seem destined for greatness then fail. (see Alex […]

12 Team Mixed League Recap
April 7, 2009 | 2009 Fantasy Baseball Draft | 127 Commentsby: Grey / Rudy
This was a fantasy baseball league put together by the FSWA, Fantasy Sports Writers Association. (Grey is in the FSWA and Rudy is unlicensed. Hopefully they don’t kick out Grey for hiring non-union labor.) We drafted this league together, which made for some disagreements in our two styles of drafting. That was quickly mended when […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Emilio Bonifacio is like that kid in the 80’s movies that seemed like he didn’t belong but, by the end, is holding his own. At least for one day. Yes, Bonifacio has 2B eligibility, but the Marlins are playing him at 3rd. Who knows how long this lasts? Perhaps as long as Anthony Michael Hall’s […]

April 6, 2009 | 2009 Fantasy Baseball Draft | 144 Commentsby: Grey
I’m in a bunch of leagues because I’m popular and smart. Feathered hair is coming back! It is? Yes, Grey said so! This fantasy baseball league is being hosted by RotoRob. (NOTE: It’s not RotorOB, RotOrOB or roTOROb.) After the pretty picture of my fantasy baseball team, I share with you never-before-seen thoughts I jotted […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Frenchy’s back, Jordan Schafer’s going to hit 161 home runs (accounting for one rainout, of course) and McCann’s going to win the MVP. Oh, and Lowe’s winning the Cy Young. Unanimous. Spring has sprung and baseball’s back. It’s a good time to be alive. Aren’t you glad you didn’t eat any peanuts in the last […]

Adam Ronis of Strong Island’s Newsday.com hosts the Fantasy Roundtable this week. He asked… Do you have players that you will absolutely not draft even if they fall far in snake drafts or go cheaply in an auction and if so why? Include examples. Can’t say I was super enlightening on this one but feel […]

April 3, 2009 | Razzball Word of the Day | 51 Commentsby: Grey
Razzball Glossary Entry: SAGNOF Pronunciation: Sag Noff Noun 1. SAGNOF — Saves Ain’t Got NO Face. The act or instance of ignoring how terrible a pitcher is, instead concentrating on his role of closer. Is this guy the best reliever for the job of closer? Who knows? Doesn’t matter. SAGNOF! 2. SAGNOF — Steals Ain’t […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Andy Behrens of Yahoo! Roto Arcade invited Razzball into their 16-team mixed league that they are christening a ‘Pro-Am’ since 9 of the players are fantasy bloggers and 7 are avid players from Fantasy Baseball Cafe boards and Y! Roto Arcade commenters. Andy posted all the rosters as well as some Q&A over in this […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Our weekly Friday Fantasy Baseball Feature, Buy Low/Sell High is back after an offseason layoff. When asked what this fantasy baseball feature did during the offseason, it said this, “Went up to the Adirondacks for some bass fishing with my friend, Clete. Well, one thing led to another and we fell in love.” Alrighty then! […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s time to take our beginning of the month look at all the fantasy baseball closers. Here at Razzball we are always evolving like Saaphyri’s alliance on I Love Money 2, so I’ve added pluses and minuses in parenthesis for the movement a closer has had since the last time I went over them. For […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? Rodney Named Closer – I Ain’t B. Lyon!
April 1, 2009 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 77 Commentsby: Grey
Between smoke breaks, Jim Leyland anointed Fernando Rodney the opening day closer. This sounds like when you were a kid and you tried to pulled something like, “Pops, you said not to put on my bathing suit until after lunch so I went into the pool in my dungarees.” Leyland is saying Rodney is the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Juan Pierre is like a piece of paper. You fold his ABs in half but it just makes him twice as strong. People scoffed last year when I boldly kept my HR projection for Juan Pierre roughly the same (0.5 from 0.6) despite seeing his projected ABs go from 615 to 350. Let’s see what […]
