It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Happy Wednesday, Razzball faithful! Are you excited for the season? I can say without a doubt that your old pal MarmosDad definitely is! I’ve officially drafted 9 out of my 10 leagues so far. Hopefully, you’ve been able to use my list of SAGNOF targets to move […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Triston McKenzie had some good news the other day. He learned he has a muscle. The bad news he received concurrently was he strained it. His teres major muscle in his shoulder is strained and he will miss up to eight weeks. A teres major muscle sounds like a muscle conductors use to wave their […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Patrick Sandoval arrived back at camp this last week looking as confident as ever. Something was different. Returning from the WBC in which he made 2 strong starts for Team Mexico, he’s primed to take another step forward this season. He successfully held the 2 finalists teams, USA and Japan, to only 1 run collectively […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last night 11 Razzball writers and Cram It gathered to show their RCL prowess in a season-long battle akin to playing a game of speed chess every day for around 180 days straight. The Razzball Commenter Leagues are a different beast, one of the longest grinds of the fantasy baseball season and not for the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?What’s poppin, Razzpimples? Got a short and sweet one for you this week. Maybe you’ve already drafted and this ain’t much help, but if you’ve still got a team or two to put together, I’m laying out an updated list of cheap sources of saves for you to target in the later stages. I’ve just […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?How long can two men talk about a 20 year old that has never played in an MLB game? Good question. Grey tests that question as we talk about Jordan Walker, Anthony Volpe, and Oscar Colas getting to start the season in the majors. Then, we complain about the Mets incompetency in leaving Brett Baty […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Official baseball starts in a few days, but it’s time to focus on what’s important: insane preseason predictions! Before we dive deep into countless hours rearranging lineups, FAAB bids, and making trade offers in order to win a couple hundred dollars in our friends and family league, which equates to roughly twenty-eight cents per hour, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Your most anticipated article of the year is here! I can read your mind like I read a Twitter feed: scattered and filled with unmentionable things. But don’t worry, I won’t tell people about your Gundam fantasy. Let’s stick to the socially acceptable fantasies — like baseball!
Every year, I sift through my trove of data and give you ridiculous yet data-driven takes that aim to give you the edge in your fantasy team construction. Successful calls have included Robbie Ray and Luis Castillo, while failed calls have included Jack Flaherty and Tyler Mahle. So…if it wasn’t for injuries, I’d be Nostradamus!
Please, blog, may I have some more?According to Dave Roberts, the plan is for Mookie Betts to play about 40 games at 2B this season. Why am I mentioning this? Well firstly because commenters oldman and Ben pointed out to me that my first cut spreadsheet had no indication of Betts’ impending 2B eligibility. I spent […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?As draft day comes and goes, it’s bold prediction season! We’re inching closer and closer to Opening Day and we have high hopes for our drafted players and pro teams. Here are some predictions as they relate to middle infielders this year. 1) Fernando Tatis Jr. hits at least .275 with 30+ home runs […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Sometime around the end of February, I contacted my Cards’ connection and they said Jordan Walker would break camp, and from that moment I donned my train conductor cap on the Jordan Walker hype train, grabbed the wheel (do trains have steering wheels?), put my foot on the gas (again, pedals?) and started screaming choo-choo-choo out the window (is it up to the conductor to say ‘choo-choo-choo?’) and went full speed ahead. Topping off the hype train sundae (clearly, I know a lot about trains), I drafted him this past weekend in Vegas at the Main Event with the minimal pick at 97. And it felt effin’ glorious!

This weekend we found out Jordan Walker did, indeed, make the Cards’ Opening Day lineup. You want this year’s Julio Rodriguez? It’s prolly Corbin Carroll. You want this year’s Bobby Witt Jr.? It’s maybe Corbin Carroll too. So, who is Jordan Walker? I’ve haven’t seen a guy like Jordan Walker since rookie Giancarlo Stanton. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s on the Struggle Bus with inside pitches, and there’s some chance here that he’s nothing more than 25/10/.240, but the upside is, brucely, as big as he is.
