Hey, look! A decent batch of two start options! After a couple weeks of pretty unappealing offerings, this week provides some sweet relief. That said, it isn’t without some sour notes of its own. For instance, Nathan Eovaldi was originally lined up for double duty this week, but left his last start early and is […]

Chandler Simpson was just sent down by the Tampa Bay Rays in favor of Jake Mangum much to the chagrin of fantasy managers. He was hitting .285 with 17 runs and 19 steals across 34 games. Since his call-up on April 19th, he had more steals than anyone else in professional baseball and more than seven entire teams. But despite the blazing speed and .285 average, Simpson posted just an 85 wRC+, meaning he was performing 15% below league average as a hitter. His OBP hovered around league norms, his slug was nonexistent and fielding was not as good as hoped. This is the dilemma: elite speed plays in fantasy, often disproportionately. Yet in real life, if you can’t hit enough to justify a lineup spot, that speed becomes a tool without a stage. Speed can be scarce especially for those in rotisserie formats. Over the past few seasons, stolen bases have surged across MLB, but true category dominant threats remain rare.
Please, blog, may I have some more?The results have been really solid across the last month, and last week was another good week. Ryan O’Hearn has been magical as one of our streamers over the last few weeks, and he’s finally getting rostered universally. Our biggest goal throughout the season is to stumble into must-roster players like that because the better […]

1. Red Sox OF Roman Anthony | 20 | AAA | 2025
2. Athletics 1B Nick Kurtz | 22 | MLB | 2025
3. Brewers SS Jesus Made | 18 | A | 2028
4. Royals 1B Jac Caglianone | 22 | AAA | 2025
5. Rangers SS Sebastian Walcott | 19 | AA | 2026
6. Padres SS Leo De Vries | 18 | A+ | 2027
7. Reds RHP Chase Burns | 22 | AA | 2025
Interesting times at the top. Made and De Vries both feel like a smart place to put your money during these volatile economic times. Kurtz and Caglianone get these spots partly for floor, but they’re also closer to the Torkelson-Vaughn vortex than anyone in the lower minors. Gotta try to account for all facets of reality, and in doing that, I can see Chase Burns making a Skenesian impact over the final stretch this season. The pitcher penalty felt pretty outdated as I watched him dominate. The only thing most people can agree on here is that Anthony represents the best combination of proximity, probability and potential.

Please, blog, may I have some more?Last weekend I featured Milwaukee pitcher Logan Henderson. A few days later he was given a ticket back to the minors despite pitching well on the mound, including allowing only one run on five hits and two walks in five innings in his final outing before being sent down.
So this week I hope to not curse Andrew Abbott of the Reds. Considering the success he has had this season plus the fact he is now in his third year with the Reds, I will say he is at least safe from not being sent to the minors any time soon.
Abbott is making the serious case to be considered an All-Star this season and a certain pitcher to be rostered on your fantasy team.
Let’s examine why he is an Up-and-Coming Dynasty Player.

Mike Trout is back to playing baseball, but for how long? I’m genuinely hoping for 80-90 games total at this point because another lower-body injury just further compounds the risk for this future HOF-er. Obviously, it is disheartening to see an all-time talent virtually perish before our eyes, but not the first nor last time […]

Happy Friday friends, as we’re suddenly pretty much at the one-third mark of the season. Some fantasy teams may be flying high without a care in the world, while others may be mired in the mud without much realistic hope of climbing back up those league standings. Regardless of how your team has been faring, […]

Juan Soto is not having a great start to the season or as a Met. Sure, he’s $765 million richer, still walking at an elite rate, scoring a lot of runs, and stealing bases at a greater frequency than expected. But in terms of HR, AVG, and OPS—three big drivers in many leagues—Soto has largely […]
