Much like last year, what a time to be alive. The era of the stolen base is here to stay and I am loving it. Just take a look at the Stolen Base leaderboard below. We are barely ten games into the season and we’ve got guys on pace for 100 steals. We have 26 […]

Now that we are a week into the season, I have the total urge to make judgements on all my players and teams. On one hand, you do have to act quickly. If you wait for a batter to take like 5 good swings, you’re often too late. On the other hand, do you really […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Offense has been hard to find this year in DFS, making hitting on your stacks even more important than ever. The stud pitchers are striking everyone out and I know it is too early to predict a trend, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we continue to see some elevated K rates in MLB. On […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Grey and B_Don are back for another Razzball Fantasy Baseball Podcast! We discuss a couple of Rockies prospects in Zac Veen and Chase Dollander, and if you should be adding them to your rosters. Jackson Merrill was an impact prospect last year, and has continued this year, but where do the guys have him ROS? […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s not that I didn’t like Hunter Greene (8 2/3 IP, 0 ER, 5 baserunners, 7 Ks, ERA at 1.31) in the preseason. I liked him too much. Okay, that’s a lie. It wasn’t too much, but it was, “I like him with reservations.” Not as in, “I like him and want to take him […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! Last week we looked at MacKenzie Gore’s impressive line of 6 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 0 ER, 13 Ks and wondered if his man-handling of a potent Phillies lineup was a sign of things to come. I moved “Big MacK”, up our Top 100 Starting Pitchers list last week, but […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Howdy doody, Razzfolx! I’m back from my annual pilgrimage to discover Japan’s finest convenience store food. I had a lot of fried chicken and udon, which paired well with chu hai while sitting under cherry trees.
I’m happy to be back in the saddle for my award-winning (status: pending) weekly article, which I creatively titled “That’s What I Like.” Because I thought, “If I like something, and if Bruno Mars likes something, it’s probably good, right?” I tried searching for “Versace” on the Player Rate but all I got was “Verlander, Justin.” I don’t like that. So I changed my search criteria to “awesome players only” and the following guys popped out.
Usual disclaimer: we are in small sample size season right now. Anthony Volpe is on pace to hit 80 home runs. Tommy Edman is on pace to hit 100 dingers. Like, grain of salt time, right? These players are best served for your teams that are waiting for a superstar to come back from the IL (see all my Acuna teams). Add at your own risk and discretion.
Please, blog, may I have some more?With all this talk about torpedo bats and barrels, I thought we should take the opportunity to look at the early data to see if we can find something useful for our Points league teams. Now, I hear what you’re saying. “We’re only crossing into double-digit games, how can any of that data be meaningful […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Rockies are eligible for an extra draft pick if Zac Veen or Chase Dollander (more on him in a second) finish top three in the end-of-the-year awards, because they were called up within two weeks of Opening Day. So, the Rockies could manipulate their service time and still get rewarded with picks. Sounds dubious, as […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Is it Christmas already? This is the kind of weeks you dream about and look forward to with giddy excitement. Some weeks this list is brutal, and it feels like a stretch to have anyone in the top tier. But this is not one of those weeks, my friends. This week there are guys you […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Welcome to the most volatile stage of the season, the early shuffle. Two weeks in, and the stat lines are loud enough to catch your attention but still small enough to lie to your face. It’s the perfect cocktail of confirmation bias and premature panic. Some breakouts are blossoming right on schedule, others are bluffing. We’ve seen enough to start tweaking the board for guys like Aaron Judge who looks like he’s auditioning for a Marvel movie with the way he’s smashing baseballs. However, this is also where fantasy managers get themselves in trouble by chasing ghosts or giving up on stars too soon. The key is balancing data with discipline. We’re weighing playing time trends, barrel rates, and underlying metrics that signal legitimate growth but we’re not ready to walk away from proven talent just yet. So shuffle up, deal in, and let’s navigate the chaos. The top 100 hitters for the rest of the 2025 fantasy baseball season have moved with some names are rising like rockets while others are sinking like stones. Let’s dig in.
Please, blog, may I have some more?We kicked off the season with a solid opening week of streamers. Almost all of our pitchers performed well, but the hitters were all over the map. That tends to be the most likely outcome when providing streamers because predicting pitchers is much easier than predicting hitters. It feels strange to say that since the […]
