Razzball nation! We’ve got a bit of a computer nerd pun as our title today for those that observe such things in the land of SAGNOF. Some of you might not remember those old dial-up internet days with the screeching and dinging of phone connections to get you live on the ‘world-wide web’. Trust […]

Weekly Razzball news delivered straight to your inbox.
Mitch Haniger fractured his forearm on a pitch, which was his most solid hit this year. Giants’ beat reporters are saying Luis Matos is being called up. Luis Matos being called up is fun. I like fun. Transitive! I like Luis Matos. He had hit six homers in the last six MiLB games. Total damage in the minors: 9/15, and he was hitting .396 in Triple-A. Can I get a giddy up, pardner? Itch said two days ago he was on his Prospect Stash List. Itch said previously, after Matos was coming off a disappointing previous year, “The premium bat speed remains. He just needs to develop better plate discipline. He has the hands to make contact with most pitches, so he swings at most pitches. That has to change. Development is not linear. He’s got time, and I might do time if I find where Grey lives.” Okay, honestly, I’m scared. So, I grabbed Matos in my shallowest leagues. He’s got power and speed, and he’s crazy hot. Let’s see how far it takes him. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Welcome back Razzers to another Top 100 Outifelders, I’m just going to dive into the player updates this week as I made several updates throughout my rankings in a bit of a shuffle-up, let’s get it! Nolan Jones – Who would have thought that the land where all prospects go to die would be the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?What’s poppin, Razzpimples? Bullpen update time! Don’t forget, the Razzball Bullpen Chart is manned by yours truly and updated like every single second (not really, but I stay on top of thangs for the most part). And directly below, you’ll see a current look at the Top 15 RP (in both 5×5 standard leagues and 6×6 saves/holds […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?So, how does everyone like midseason platform updates? No one has any comments on the new design? I didn’t imagine so, great, let’s move on… OK, I know we’re not getting out of here without addressing the big, pink, elephant in the room. The update is kinda crappy. However, I will say that many of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Elly De La Cruz is the talk of the baseball world. There’s only been a few articles on him the last week here at Razzball. Guess I better jump on the bandwagon! He broke some FAAB budgets Sunday night in ways I have never seen. I got zero shares because I’ve already spent my fair […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?How long can 2 grown men talk about a 21 year old? Well, we put it to the test this week with the call up of Reds top prospect, Elly De La Cruz. Listen and find out how much Grey loves him. The Reds also called up pitching prospect Andrew Abbott who has thrown 11.2 […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Royals called up insanely fast speedster, Dairon Blanco (1-for-4). He’s so fast he just ran in your room, mussed your hair and ran back out without you even seeing him. His name translates to “Strike while the iron is white hot.” Roughly. I’m not a linguist. Dairon has 47 steals in 49 games in Triple-A, which is absolutely hilarious. Oh, and he’s 30 years old. Okay, so the Royals have one of those teleporters like in The Fly, and Rajai Davis was in it when a cheetah entered. They got zapped together and out walked Dairon. Idea Alert! Every MLB team should be required to have an 80-steal burner. Like they all have LOOGYs, they should all have Billy Hamilton clones. This isn’t an idea, this is a must-have. If your fantasy team’s steals are anemic, Dairon is your answer. Otherwise, I’d prolly wait to see the next guy to come out of the cheetah teleporter. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy June, folx! I’m heading into the second stretch of the season with a bit more blurby-type approach, similar to your other favorite writers like The Itch and Chuck Palahniuk. I mentioned this early in the year as well, but I’ll repeat it here for good measure: I’m only responding to comments on the day of publication now. I love y’all, but I need to carve out some time for the people I call “family” instead of “folx.” I talk to Coolwhip and JKJ literally everyday and they have access to my data. If you haven’t said “hey” to them, give them a shout.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Yes, I could be referencing an old movie from the early 90’s, directed by the great Robert Redford and starring then a very young Brad Pitt, or I could be referencing the 1976 book the movie is based on. OR I could literally be describing Emmanuel Rivera‘s propensity to run through random objects. Walls, Jello, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?What a week it was for MLB middle infielders, which featured the much-awaited Elly De La Cruz callup. He’s been as electric and entertaining as advertised with a loud homer, steal, and blowing past Reds third base coach to score one of his runs. Hopefully, you had him stashed or won him in your FAAB […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Tonight the Colorado Rockies travel to Boston to battle the Red Sox on zero days’ rest. A bottom-three road team on both sides of the ball, I’ll be looking to pick on the Rockies with bats and arms alike. Rafael Devers (3B, $5,800) is heating up and our DFSBot loves his chances against Connor Seabold […]
