Emerging from your mother’s basement after six months, “I did it! I won my fantasy baseball league!” It begins to dawn on you that the world no longer looks as you remember it. Where there were once blossoming trees, there’s now decaying branches. Where flowers once sprouted, shriveled vines remained. A tumbleweed blows past. Minutes […]

1. C Agustin Ramirez | 23 | AAA | 2025
Even when/if he’s not hitting, Ramirez could still be useful for fantasy purposes next year as a sneaky steals asset from a spot without many steals to spare. He should also be playing every day no matter what happens, mixing in at Designated Hitter sometimes when he’s not catching. In 39 games with the Triple-A Marlins, he slashed .262/.358/.447 with five home runs and four stolen bases. He had 25 homers and 22 steals in 126 games across two levels on the season. That would look pretty good in anyone’s catcher spot.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Welcome back to the final 2024 edition of Up-and-Coming Dynasty Players series.
With the regular season winding down, most fantasy leagues seasons are done outside of the few still determining their champion this weekend. While fantasy seasons are basically done, that does not mean you are finished with your dynasty league. In fact, now is the start of the 2025 season!
Just like real MLB teams, the offseason doesn’t mean you get to put your feet on the table and not think about your team until February or March. The offseason is the time for you to make your plans for next season.
Who should you target in free agency or draft. What prospects should you go after? Which players should I target in a trade?
And if you really want to be prepared, now is the time to start putting together your rankings. (NOTE: If that is a daunting task for you, don’t fret! After a few weeks off, I will be back with the position-by-position dynasty rankings throughout the offseason. That will then lead into my overall player rankings ahead of spring training.)
Let’s circle back to a player you should target this offseason. My final player to highlight this year is Rhett Lowder of the Cincinatti Reds. This is a player who was pitching at Wake Forest just last year. Now, after only 22 games of minor league experience, he is pitching for the Reds.
So let’s take a look at Lowder
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well, we’ve come to the end of the line my friends, as we head into the weekend (or Monday!) to wrap up another 162 games of major league baseball. Anyone who played in even a single fantasy league no doubt had a long six months full of both highs and lows. Here’s to hoping there […]

Oh God, what is he doing? So, Oakland played its last game in Oakland yesterday, and hell is too cool a place for John Fisher. Teams […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Did Chris Sale just get another start? Did Spencer Schwellenbach just pick up another start? Who goes on Friday? Who on Sunday? Does any of this matter? Does anything matter? I don’t know, tee bee aitch, but let’s see where we’re at. Braves/Mets series was cancelled and they’re tentatively scheduled for a Monday doubleheader. That […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?1. LHP Cam Caminiti | 18 | A | 2028
At 6’2” 195 lbs with 98 mile-an-hour heat from an athletic delivery, Caminiti declared a year early for the draft and landed at 24th overall. As a two-way player, he patrolled center field and was good enough there that a decision had to be made about his role. He’s shown three solid pitches (curve, slider, change) along with the fastball, making him an alarming and unique matchup for hitters at the lower levels. Atlanta didn’t even bother breaking him in during complex league play, sending him instead to Low-A late in the season. He threw just three innings there, allowing one run on three hits with four strikeouts and zero walks.
We have arrived at the final Wednesday post of the season. There are 4 or 5 games left for every team and there are still a good number of playoff races left undecided. There are also some matchups with no postseason implications at all, so picking the right group of players tonight might prove difficult. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This year has taught us that the Giants bats get hot one bat at a time all season. From Patrick Bailey to Matos to Ramos to Wade Jr. to Chapman to Joey Bart, but on the Pirates to Fitzgerald to Carl’s Jr. Jr. finally to Michael Conforto, who gets the last week of the season. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s hard to believe there’s only one week to go in the Razzball Commenter Leagues. This marathon of a season has seen us torture ourselves for 26 long weeks, agonizing over batty calls, dipping into the streamers with mixed results, cursing players, and praising others. We’ve ignored our families, our jobs, and our hygiene and […]
