Well, we finally had a breakthrough last week in DFS. All it took was putting 3 Oakland Athletics in my lineup. If you used my exact card last week you would have finished top 2% in most tournaments as I did and had yourself a very nice payday. I’m not saying that the A’s strategy […]

This week on the Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, Grey and B_Don discuss starting a Go Fund Me for Grey to shave his mustache off. If he played for the Yankees, it might have to go as he looks slightly over to the right. We talk about the promotion of Bobby Miller and Gavin Stone getting […]

Astros’ lineup has some 80’s WWF vibes to it. Julks-Dubon being led by Captain Woo Cubano. Can’t forget, Jose Abreu (2-for-5, 2 run) at the plate as threatening as Cyndi Lauper when she’s beating on Captain Lou’s chest in the Girls Just Wanna Fun video. Or The Fabulous Martin Maldonado went 2-for-3, 2 runs with his 3rd homer. All they needed was Manaea to come through with Afa and Sika. By the way, what’s less pro wrestling than losing your acronym, WWF, to the World Wildlife Federation. First up, Mauricio Dubon went 1-for-4, 2 runs and his 1st homer. Altuve owners are Stan Gable yelling, “Hey, that’s my pie!” Then Corey Julks went 3-for-5, 3 RBIs, hitting his 3rd homer. But, leading the way, was Yordan Alvarez. Captain Woo Cubano went 3-for-4, 3 runs, 5 RBIs and his 11th and 12th homer, hitting .305. Woo has no speed and doesn’t seem like he’s been hot at any moment this year, and is still around a top 15 hitter on the year on the Player Rater. Truly one of the best and gets nowhere near enough acclaim. Or as Rowdy Tellez would say acc’laim. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s nearly freaking Memorial Day, folx! I finally relented on No Mow May today and sheered about 8 million dandelions from my backyard. Do you know the meaning of “deadhead”? Other than being one of the greatest Devin Townsend songs. Oh, and that other band with Jerry Garcia. Oh, and the trucker slang. That’s right — the fourth guess did the trick! It’s when you pop the head off a dandelion. I suppose you could do this maliciously while cackling, but I do it with a lawnmower that dates to the 1980s. Have I succeeded in giving you a feeling that my life is ultra-exciting like Grey’s?
And now, much like Grey, let’s see if we can save your fantasy baseball team as it heads into the 1/3 mark of the season.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Week seven and we are coming up on the third-way mark (28.9% to be exact). Vin went ahead and collected all the current category leaders for this season and I thought I’d compare those to the all-time records and see if anyone is on pace for a record-breaking season. Let’s take a look at my […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?As we progress further into the 2023 campaign, continually making player adds, drops and trades in the young season, it’s important to discern the players starting off strong that will end up being legitimate, the players that have started hot that will fade to obscurity, as well as players who have started off slow but […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Chase Anderson is starting in Coors Field tonight and all I can think about is Agent Smith chasing Neo through the Matrix. Except this time Agent Smith is Jorge Soler (OF: $5,300), who is coming off a 4 for 5 game that included his 12th homer. Mr. Anderson has thus far eluded capture (0.00 ERA […]

With Dustin May injured and Julio Urias hitting the Ineffective List — Urias should be healthy when he stops giving up four homers per game — the Dodgers needed another arm besides Gavin Stone. I opened with that because when I saw the Dodgers were calling up Bobby Miller they be Gavin me a heart attack that they weren’t calling up Stone. I need Stone. Yes, this is about me. Stone has been confirmed for Monday, but Miller’s up for Tuesday. Here’s what Itch’s said, “Where I prefer Gavin Stone, most who care enough to rank ‘em seem to prefer Miller, a 6’5” 220 lb prototype power pitcher. While the 6’1” 175 lb Stone doesn’t win any off-the-bus intimidation contests, he repeats his delivery with ease, which is necessary to maintaining plus command. Miller has mostly looked like a reliever to the eye test, but he looks different now than he did on draft night. He bounced back and forth a bit between relieving and starting at Louisville and retained remnants of a max-effort, off-balance delivery throughout much of his minor league career. It’s pretty smooth and steady now, so I can’t really quibble with anyone who’d prefer the fastball-slider dynamite Miller brings to the mound, and I’d like to stick a piece of dynamite up Grey’s butt.” What on earth? As Itch says, Stone and Miller is likely a toss-up, but this isn’t like mortar and pestle, and why not both? Choose one and go with him. Will Bobby Miller be better than Bryce or Mason Miller? He could. Oh, and so many West Coast Millers. Angels and San Diego, you’re on the clock. Anyway, here’s what else I saw this weekend in fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Welcome back to another installment of the Two-Start Dive Bar! Some weeks I sit down to write this column, and I have something specific in mind to say, like “Happy Mother’s Day”, or “F*ck John Fisher”, etc. Today I find myself kind of without a lot of wisdom to impart here, other than maybe to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Under the arch in St. Louis, the weather is heating up and so are the bats of two Nolans. Between Nolan Arenado and Nolan Gorman, the Cardinals boast two of the hottest bats in recent weeks. Over the last 14 days, a total of 12 home runs, 19 runs and 33 RBI has turned the disaster of a season for the Cardinals into some form of senseless hope that the NL Central loves to foster. Between a potential future hall of farmer in Arenado and a young 23-year-old bat figuring things out at the major league level, our Top 100 hitters see the law firm of Nolan and Nolan moving on up. Who else is gaining value for the rest of the season? Read on as we dive into the Top 100 hitters for the rest of the 2023 fantasy baseball season.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last week was full of mixed results. That will sometimes happen, but we were pleased with the bats. What’s funny is that we’re seeing all of the regression monsters bite back on these teams. The Cardinals and Cubs were two of the biggest surprises through the opening months, but the inevitable flip-flop has hit these […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?With Jorge Polanco going to the injured list, Twins SS Royce Lewis has a window to step into the limelight. He won’t get the first chance with 2B Edouard Julien slashing .333/.471/.537 with two home runs in 16 May games at Triple-A. Doesn’t much matter if Lewis gets the first chance or not; he’s a must-add in just about every sized league while we wait for the Polanco fallout. Wouldn’t hurt to make room for Julien either if you have the chance, especially in OBP leagues.
