Rudy Gamble. Part man, part bot, but all legend. He is the being behind the curtain of the projections for Razzball baseball. It may or may not be in a basement. That’s top secret. He is the creator of the War Room, which I have become a devout follower of. There are multiple tools on the Razzball site to help dominate leagues, with my favorite being the Weekly Pitcher Planner. Everything just makes my life easier navigating the fantasy baseball season. I have had the honor and privilege of splitting teams with Rudy over the last two seasons. The puns and GIF exchanges have been the best but I’ve really garnered an appreciation for his process and methodology. He is my EF Hutton. When he talks, I listen. Granted, sometimes I wonder if it’s human Rudy or bot Rudy, but it really doesn’t matter at the end of the day. They are one and the same. So, a few weeks ago, we were talking over things and he mentioned Tarik Skubal. He said that the bot loved him ROS and that everyone should scoop him up. Was this a cry for help? Had SkyNet fully taken control? They are one and the same. Remember?

What is up party people? The second half is off to a roaring start and it seems like every game Tuesday saw both sides score double digit runs. Could it be that the bouncy balls are back? If so, hitters are about to explode. Of course that means very bad things for your pitchers but let’s be honest, it is really fun to watch bombs. Did you Know that Shohei Ohtani leads the league in home runs? I’m almost certain that is brand new information that you would otherwise have no way of knowing. He is the hottest name potentially in line for a mid season change of scenery.  So, who used the break to refocus and lock in…

Mike Couillard and Jeremy Brewer have launched a pod, Cards & Categories, to discuss baseball from card collecting and fantasy angles! In our second episode, we open with fawning over Shoehei Ohtani and comparing his bat flip to Max Kepler’s bat kick. Then we overview Topps Chrome 2023, slated to be released on July 26. Lastly, […]

“The guys we have in here, in this clubhouse. These guys are home. This locker room for the last three months is where I’ve placed my bowl of cocktail wieners and beans on top of this wooden bench and dined, while people around me have said, ‘Really? You have to eat in here?’ This locker is where I hang my Mets’ jersey, where, before me, once Hubie Brooks hung his Mets’ jersey, and before him, another guy whose name I’m forgetting. That’s a legacy, and we’re damn proud. Mets is written across our chest, like a stigmata.” That was Justin Verlander as he tried to pretend to not want to be traded, making his best effort on the field — 8 IP, 1 ER, 4 baserunners, 7 Ks, ERA at 3.47. Verlander is carrying his worst peripherals in fifteen years — 7.6 K/9, 2.8 BB/9, 4.49 xFIP, just hideous stuff for a guy of his caliber, but maybe the inspiration to get off the Mets will be all he needs. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:

For this list, I used the players’ ages as of July 9, 2023.

The cut-off lines for eligibility were 130 at bats for hitters and 50 innings for pitchers.

Here’s a link to the Top 25.

Here’s a link to the Top 75.

76. Mets SS Ronny Mauricio | 22 | MLB | 2023

Breakout season began in winter ball but has been complicated by the club’s efforts to find its best lineup. Probably should’ve been playing big league second base a long time ago. Jeff McNeil was a nice find, but he’s 31 years old with a .324 slugging percentage. He’s essentially Luis Guillorme without the cool infield defense. How any club lets him block a bonus baby coming into his own is beyond me.

“Anything you can do I can do better,
I can do anything better than you.

No, you can’t. Yes, I can.” Sang Christian Walker (3-for-5, 3 runs, 5 RBIs) as he had a double slam (19, 20) and legs (7). On Christian solder! *blowtorches a piece of metal*

“Anything you can do I can do better,
I can do anything better than you.

No, you can’t. Yes, I can.” Sang Austin Riley (3-for-5, 3 runs, 7 RBIs) as he hit hit his 17th and 18th homer.

“You’re supposed to wait for me to reply ‘Yes, I can’ after you say ‘No, you can’t.”

“No, I’m not.”
“Yes, you are.” Sang Orlando Arcia (2-for-4, 2 runs, 2 RBIs) who hit his 8th homer. Next year, Christian Walker will once again be underrated, as he’s currently above Vlad Jr., Riley and others on the Player Rater, and others who went way before him, and I imagine will again in 2024. “No, they won’t.” Yes, they will! Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
