It’s crazy when people drive slow in the left-most lane on the freeway. It’s crazy that people spend over $5 everyday for coffee when the Korean instant coffee packs come out to like $.20 each. They are delicious, by the way. It’s crazy that Razzball is not the most visited website on the internet. It’s crazy that people don’t consider Shohei Ohtani the greatest baseball player we have ever seen. It’s crazy that….Luis Robert Jr. has been dropped in 10.2% of ESPN leagues over the past week? Is that so cray cray? Let’s dig in.

One would be best to avoid most internet chat groups, especially larger public forums Reddit or Twitter, full of idiots like me drawn into conversations we hate with people we’ll never know. I previously wrote about Yahoo deleting message boards on all leagues, to be replaced with their useless “Chat” function, which serves to shove even more advertisements down our collective throats (a disgusting image).

What’s the Point: Flat Colas
May 4, 2023 | 2023 Fantasy Baseball, Fantasy Baseball Points Leagues | 3 Commentsby: Butters
Another week, another promising prospect banished to AAA. Unlike Jordan Walker who should really still be in the show (please bring him back) Oscar Colas really hasn’t looked like he belongs in the big leagues so far. I was a big fan of his potential as a fourth or fifth outfielder because I thought he would start smashing the ball, and he did not. His demotion should be far from a back breaking blow but it is saddening nonetheless. He still has tremendous upside so you pretty much have to hold him in dynasty but for redraft, you’ll need a replacement. Even if Colas wasn’t part of your squad there’s always room for another outfielder. Fortunately, there are plenty of options on waivers so let’s dive right in.

Sometimes when I write about fantasy baseball (and certainly when I play fantasy baseball), I feel a lot like Ruth Langmore. You’ve seen the meme from Ozark by now. Sometimes I feel like I don’t know s*** about f***. Case in point. Some dummy wrote in the preseason that the new park dimensions in Camden […]

DFS: Justin (Verlander) Time
May 4, 2023 | 2023 Fantasy Baseball, DFS, DraftKings, Fanduel |by: darksheep
Justin Verlander returns to action today after an initial IL stint stemming from a shoulder muscle strain in Spring Training. The Mets as a team need this injection to their rotation like that guy at the park just hovering in place needed his. Regardless of what you think about the suspension of Max Scherzer, it’s […]

Don’t just toss around the boomstick tag, okay? Pass out the boomstick tag after thoughtful introspection. Okay? Okay. With that said, Josh Jung (3-for-5,3 RBIs and his 7th and 8th homer), that 3rd baseman in Texas? Yeah, he has a boomstick. Not saying he could play Quidditch, that’s a broomstick. This is a boomstick. To give you a super random comparison, Jung could be Ty France but with the boomstick. Jung, the France man. Call him Josh-Jung Sartre. Though, France has kinda sucked, but I was talking about his average when it’s good, and Jung should have more power France. Hmm, maybe that comparison isn’t great, except how else was I getting to call him, Josh-Jung Sartre? Some have doubted whether or not Josh Jung has the power to be an attractive fantasy corner man contributor. Doubt no more, as Josh-Jung Sartre once said of self-reflection. Can he stay on pace for 40 homers? We’re in unknown territory, but he’s been ready for the last two years. What would Sartre say of that? Let’s see, hmm… “Hell is other people having Josh Jung on their team.” Geez, this guy’s a real bummer. Unlike his sorta namesake! Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:

Prospect News: Everybody Must Get Stone
May 3, 2023 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Featured | 30 Commentsby: The Itch
Royals SS Maikel Garcia leads off for us today and could eventually claim the same role in Kansas City. He’ll probably start at the bottom if he starts at all, of course, but he’s an ideal fit at the top given his high-contact, solid-OBP profile. The team’s build lacks anyone else who fits the table-setting profile. He wasn’t clicking in Triple-A like he was this winter or spring, but I’ve long thought he’s the kind of player who answers whenever opportunity knocks.

SAGNOF: Acuna Matata Means No (SB) Worries
May 3, 2023 | 2023 Fantasy Baseball, SAGNOF, Steals |by: MarmosDad
Happy Wednesday, Razzball faithful! Are you ready for another (moderately) exciting episode of SAGNOF with MarmosDad?! I’ll just assume you shouted, or muttered in a not-so-disgruntled manner, “YES!!!” and we can move on… Our lede this week shouldn’t be much of a surprise as he’s taken the league by storm with his accumulated counting stats.

“Please bend your knee, Gabriel Moreno, we have a coronation to attend to. Thank you.” Places sword on Moreno’s shoulder, then passes it over his head to other shoulder, and ceremoniously says, “Every fifth day, from today forward, you will be known as Boombalatty, so it’s now Pfaadt y Boombalatty. The perfect battery mate. You have no choice in this matter. Okay, now you can stand.” So, the Diamondbacks are showing their youth by exposing their baby Pfaadt. With Brandon Pfaadt being called up, the minors are closed now. *Matt Mervis pounds on door* Sorry, man, we just closed! So here’s what Itch’s said previously, “The 6’4” 220 lb Brandon Pfaadt got better outcomes than anyone could expect from a Triple-A Diamondback, posting a 0.99 WHIP with 74 strikeouts in 61.2 innings. Pitching coach Brent Strom has gotten great results from a lot of arms over the years, and Pfaadt comes gift wrapped with all the bells and whistles, carrying his plus velocity deep into starts and commanding his four-pitch arsenal like a veteran. I’m a veteran of fighting a war with Grey.” What? If it’s not clear, Brandon Pfaadt is a pickup in all leagues. Pfaadt chance I’m missing out on him! Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:

I usually like to start with something like, it’s been a wild, unpredictable season in the outfield thus far! But when you look closely – and see Ronald Acuna, Randy Arozarena, Adolis Garcia and Mike Trout in the top four – nothing strikes you as particularly unbelievable. As you work your way down in the […]
