I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. We’re roughly two months into the season, high time to update our Outfielder rankings! These are rankings for 15 team re-draft leagues for the rest of the season, since that’s most of what I play. Any stats in the book are just that….in the book. I’m […]

DFS is never easy. I am mired in a slump of sorts where it seems like I am a day or two off of my recommendations. It basically seems like every time I roster a player or a pitcher, they have their ceiling game a day or two after I roster them. Still, I must […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?On this week’s Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast, Grey and B_Don talk about a couple call-ups including Marcelo Mayer for the Red Sox. Ronald Acuna Jr. returned and hit 2 HRs over the weekend, but where does he rank for us for the rest of the season? Last week we talked about some top picks that […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day! Let’s honor our vets by looking at the way vet pitchers adapt despite their best selves no longer shiny and new. I’m reminded of Justin Verlander. Not this year’s Verlander. That guy is just old and dusty. I’m reminded of Verlander under Dusty. When he looked gassed and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! Ok, let’s get this out of the way right now. Why, yes, I could use a new computer and photo editing program. Why do you ask? Logan Henderson has gone from a waiver wire gamble to an “Oh No! I’d better go check to see if anyone picked him up yet!” […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy Memorial Day, America-dwellers! If you’re like our good-natured Canadian friend Marmos, you may not know that we ‘Mericuhns celebrate veterans by crushing Coors cans during boat parades. Indeed, plural parades. Sometimes there’s even brewskis in those cans, although in this economy, there’s a non-zero chance we’re just digging them out of the trash of Coachella. Yacht rock at it’s finest!
Have a great and safe holiday, and here’s my gift to you — some help for your fantasy team!
Please, blog, may I have some more?May we never forget! Today is a day of reflection and remembrance above all else. Please be sure to take time today to honor and mourn our fallen heroes. Don’t let them be forgotten. Nothing I put on virtual paper today will come close to doing justice to remember those who make the ultimate sacrifice […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Yesterday, Tarik Skubal (9 IP, 0 ER, 2 hits, zero walks, 13 Ks, ERA at 2.49) had one of the best starts ever fo’ reals fo’ reals fo’ reals fo’ reals…fo’ reals! FO’ REALS! As I continue to say fo’ reals in different intonations, the Fo’ Reals Police break down my door and drag me […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?There’s underwhelming weeks for two start options, and then there’s this week. Yuck. Not only are the Chocolate Chip and Sugar Cookies in short supply, but even the Oatmeal Raisins are lacking in quantity. (They’re also lacking in quality.) If you’re someone who comes here looking for options to chase after on the waiver wire […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Aaron Judge sits atop our rankings once again, and by now, that should surprise no one. With so much talent shifting below him, it’s easy to overlook the steady dominance at the top. So before diving into all the risers and fallers, let’s take a moment to appreciate just how absurd Judge has been. According to Statcast, Judge leads the league in average exit velocity (96.7 mph), barrels (45), and hard-hit rate (62%), and none of those races are particularly close. He has produced more 110+ mph batted balls than most teams, and his expected metrics might be even more impressive. His current xwOBA (.482) would be the highest Statcast has ever recorded in a full season. This level of production simply cannot be ignored, not even in a world where a 50/50 season just concluded for Shohei Ohtani in 2024. Judge’s historic blend of power, plate discipline, and consistency keeps him locked in at number one. As we dig into this week’s Top 100 Hitters for the rest of the 2025 fantasy season, we see plenty of movement, including the return of Ronald Acuña Jr. and the continued slide of several big-name bats who just can’t find their rhythm. Dive in and enjoy the ride.
Please, blog, may I have some more?I can’t complain about the results in Week 8. Most of our starters performed well, and the hitting streamers were also solid. We’re actually going to ride one of the same hitting steamers from last week, and it’s hard to believe some of these guys are still sitting on the waiver wires with how hot […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Earlier this week, the Rangers signed Korean high schooler Seong-Jun Kim and announced they will develop him as a two-way player. I’ve only seen the hype video the org posted, but he looks best at shortstop, then on the mound, then with the bat. I’ve noticed he’s getting added in a bunch of Fantrax leagues, but I’m probably not spending any spots on him. Feels like every FAAB run these days involves several young players I really want to add and hold for the long term, but Kim would fall into a trade-chip bucket for me because I’m not patient like that. Kim won’t join the club until January, making him something like a half-decade away from impacting our game in the categories.
