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 […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Week four in the Razzball Commenter Leagues and we’re rolling right along now. I’m hoping we’ll have Master Standings available for you later this week, so keep an out HERE for an update. Regardless of whether these standings are updated or not, Merry Band of Schmohawks is no doubt leading the way. Their 110.5 points […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well, second week in a row my DFS column here at Razzball comes in off a loser. We nailed both starting pitchers again but also put up nearly nada with the bats despite having a fairly large investment in hitters. 1-3 on Double-Ups on the season and onto a new week we go! Lots of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The Brookeout is upon us! Brent Rooker was so good that even he didn’t think he was capable of a month that good. Maybe the Padres and Giants would be Rooker good if they could play every game in Mexico City. You know who is not playing every day right now…Luis Robert Jr. LuBob got […]

Seattle Mariners, or as they’re known in the Pacific Northwest “Seattle’s Best Club,” are calling up their 24-year-old right-hander, Bryce Miller. Last thing Itch said on Miller was, “His time is nigh, but he’ll need something to go wrong in a stacked rotation.” El oh el. Not at Itch, but at the M’s. Um, go wrong in their rotation? If their only crack was in Robbie Ray’s pants. Itch said earlier in the preseason in his top 75 prospects rankings, “If you’re looking for a deep-sleeper starter late in a draft-and-hold format, it might be Miller time. A 4th round pick in 2021, Miller has chugged right through the minor leagues and figures to open this season in Triple-A after posting a 1.05 WHIP in 50.2 innings across ten Double-A starts in 2022. The main worry is that he goes the way of Matt Brash. His delivery isn’t as low or unbalanced (reliever-y) as Brash’s, but he too is a fastball-slider dominant pitcher getting kind outcomes in a kind setting. Speaking of kind, ever wanted a Kind Bar truck to fall on Grey?” What the heck! Miller’s command looks crazy wonky, but it was decent this year in 19 2/3 IP (1.4 BB/9). He looks closer to a 3.5 BB/9 or higher, which smells of trouble. His strikeouts should be around 8.6-9.1 K/9. On the “oh crap that’s bad” side, he could go 3.5 BB/9 and 8.5 K/9 and be a 4.50+ ERA guy. On the “oh, daddy, that’s nice, I’m appreciative of your love” side, he could have a 9+ K/9 and 2 BB/9 and be a strong number two. Like in the carnival game “water gun used to blow up the balloon in the clown’s mouth,” aim your expectations for the middle. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Salutations on this wonderful May Day. I hope you, like me, are reveling in a break from work. Acktshually, BRB, I gotta handle this manufactured crisis about a shipment of widgets getting lost over the Pacifics. In the meantime, readers of Razzball unite and read what Reddit calls “The Third Worst Fantasy Baseball Listicle.”
Please, blog, may I have some more?No, it’s not Bastille Day. I mean, technically it might be, but I wouldn’t know much about it because that would require roughly five percent added effort to open up another tab and Google it. That’s five percent I just can’t spare at my age and energy level. So maybe since we’re not a website […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The calendar flips to May, and April has always provided us with some hot and cold starts from expected and unexpected places.

Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s a mixed-up Monday, Razzball DFS’ers! The Bruins are going home and the Leafs are moving on to the second round. If that’s not enough to make your head spin, picking out your pitchers for tonight’s DFS slate surely will. Let’s take a look at tonight’s pitching considerations in light of the DraftKings slate, which locks at 7:05 […]

As many of you know, I was in Mexico City this weekend. The funny thing (is this funny?), I was in Mexico City for a cousin’s wedding. Not until maybe three days before did I realize it was the same weekend as the Padres and Giants playing in Coors South, which I guess is Corona. Around the city, they had these player statues, and, boy, were they awful:

I look more like Manny Machado than that statue! Any hoo! I’m being told this is not Travel & Leisure dot com. Too bad, I had some great tips for Gavin Stone about how to get to Los Angeles. El eff gee! That’s right, the Dodgers are calling him up to start on Wednesday. I have Stone stashed since March in multiple leagues; I just gave you a Gavin Stone fantasy two weeks ago. I am absolutely all-in. As Bob Dylan would say, everybody must get Stone. Seriously, don’t leave any Gavin Stone unturned. All those Dodgers’ babies from last week are going to have Gavin as their birth Stone. Anyway, here’s what else I saw this weekend in fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Lots of very familiar names in the Top Shelf this week, and at least one very unfamiliar name. Mason Miller, of my beloved-slash-abhorred Oakland A’s, gets a start in the Coliseum and one at Kauffman Stadium this week. Miller shows a solid K/BB and with the park/team factors at play this week, he’s Top Shelf: […]
