I hope our American readers all had a restful long weekend and kept our veterans in their thoughts (hopefully our non-American readers had great weekends too). Now is the time standings solidify, and you really need to take a hard look at those standings and decide where you can make moves, where you can trade […]

2025 Fantasy Baseball
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 […]

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?Games that are played in Colorado are more likely to produce a higher score because Coors has 12% more scoring than the average game. DFS players know this and love to roster opposing offenses in Colorado, but the players’ prices increase as well. Aaron Judge had his price raised nearly 10% because of this matchup […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?As we approach Memorial Day and the week eight recap of the Razzball Commenter Leagues, our league standings have stabilized a bit. Those teams who got out to 30 point leads at the end of April have drifted back to the pack (hopefully), and even those teams who were sitting in last place (I had […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?When you look at pitcher heat maps, you will see a red circular shape where the pitcher most often hits the catcher’s mitt. Some pitchers have two spots they like to target in the zone, but most have one particular spot they like to focus inside the zone. For Tarik Skubal, that dot is very […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?11 of the top 25 starting pitchers (by SIERA) are starting today. Cole Ragans, Jack Flaherty, and Max Meyer are in this grouping, but due to some small sample issues, they still have an ERA over 4. This means that with 24 offenses to choose from, I am cancelling out 11 right away. Here is […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Welcome to the week that was, week 7 in the Razzball Commenter Leagues. Vin tells me this past week marked the 25% point of our season. I’d say it’s officially panic time for those of us in the bottom of the league standings. For every team I have with PCA, I have one with Roki […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Whenever I review a slate and find the makings of a straightforward slate, my mind instantly starts looking for the holes. Can the advanced stats, the matchup charts, and Vegas all be wrong somewhere, and if so, is it worth it to take the risk? I am usually very grateful for this way of thinking, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I start my process every day by recognizing that making money in DFS requires 1st place finishes every so often and that I must have a fearless mentality (willing to lose) in order to win. I love the way this slate sets me up to play fearless tonight. I think the high priced “safe” pitching […]

We are back and so are the injuries, sadly. There is no rest for the wicked baseball gods who deem us unworthy of love and happiness. There have been a slew of injuries since my last post two weeks ago (apologies for the delay) and I covered all the relevant ones I can remember in […]
