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 […]

Weekly Razzball news delivered straight to your inbox.
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.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Hello once again, Razzballers! And happy holiday weekend to all out there celebrating. Enjoy those BBQs, beverages, and agonizing roster decisions this long weekend. I know it’s an arbitrary cutoff, but Memorial Day weekend (end of May) does feel like a momentous turning point in the fantasy baseball calendar. First, it is really the time […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?If you don’t currently have three or four pitchers (or more) sitting on the IL list on your fantasy baseball team, then you likely are only rostering the minimum requirement of pitchers. For everyone else, it seems like we are placing a pitcher on the IL every day.
Because of that, the search for good pitching is a constant requirement if you want to field a pitching staff that even resembles a real staff. That leads us to Logan Henderson.
If you are paying attention to what is happening in fantasy baseball, then you are likely seeing teams starting to add this 23-year-old righthander to their roster. There is a reason why this is happening.
Let’s take a look at the young hurler for the Milwaukee Brewers.
Please, blog, may I have some more?It was an Imperial March last night at Busch Stadium as the Mighty Men of Measurement took the mound. Ok. Maybe that’s laying it on too thick. But more than a few of us were keen to see if Zac Gallen (5.2 IP, 4 ER, 3 H, 3 BB, 4 Ks. ERA at 5.25), was […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Ronald Acuna Jr? BACK. Hunter Greene? BACK. Spencer Strider? BACK. George Kirby? BACK. This is the best week of news we have had all season. While Strider and Kirby were not stellar in their first starts back, it must feel better slotting them in your lineup than Ryan Gusto or Tyler Anderson. Also, while writing […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Bubba Chandler is ready. When the Pirates will call him up is your guess = my guess. Jac Cannoli is ready and the Royals could use hitting, but where is he going to play? I don’t know. Roman Anthony is ready, but he’s more “Where is he going to play” than Cannoli. At least Jac […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Greetings deep league friends! As we inch closer to summer, it feels like we’re at an extra dull part of the season when it comes to help on the waiver wire. The early season happy surprises have all been rostered, but it’s too soon for what hopefully will be a wave of promising minor league […]
