The only real poor man here is anyone who drafted Adley Rutschman these past two seasons (me). He is consistently a top-10o pick yet incapable of tapping into any upside or even replicating his career-high 2022 season. That year was great (for a catcher) with 20 home runs, 84 runs, 80 RBI, and a .277 […]

It is unbelievable how good Ronald Acuna Jr. is after tearing a second ACL. In the 13 games since his return, Acuna Jr. has four home runs while slashing .333/.418/.625. He has not stolen a base yet and his strikeout rate is slightly above his career high (30.9%) but who cares when he has a […]

Mike Trout is back to playing baseball, but for how long? I’m genuinely hoping for 80-90 games total at this point because another lower-body injury just further compounds the risk for this future HOF-er. Obviously, it is disheartening to see an all-time talent virtually perish before our eyes, but not the first nor last time […]

We are roughly one-quarter of the way through this baseball season and a week does not pass without a frustrating amount of IL stints. I have teams on the NFBC with entire benches littered with red IL stints. There is nothing more painful than not having a fantasy IL for the real-life IL but it […]

*Knocks on wood* we luckily did not have THAT bad of an injury week. Nowhere close to last week’s bloodbath which almost made me log out of ESPN and Fantrax for this season. We all know what this means though…prepare your collective butts for next week and let’s dive into the news of the weekend. […]

Good News: I do not have to discuss Bobby Witt Jr. and Austin Riley because both are healthy after getting drilled by pitches this week! Bad News: We still have plenty of injury updates to cover while weeks away from domestic Opening Day!! Don’t you just love pain? I mean, baseball. Let’s dive into this […]

Ok, now that my internal monologue is out of the way, let us move on to discussing this week’s injury notes and updates. Preseason Injuries to Monitor George Kirby (SP, SEA) Shoulder Inflammation One of the “safest” picks in the draft will officially be starting the season on IL. Kirby’s shoulder acting up three […]

Oh boy, it is the BEST time of the year. MLB teams are finally announcing injuries and updates on their players after we sickos have been drafting them for months! While most updates are benign and others are known issues (i.e. player returning from Tommy John), there are always a handful that may cause whiplash. […]

We’ve been trying to find a middle ground between stacks and no stacks. Tonight feels like a prime opportunity for a Braves stack against the Cardinals. We may be going in a little blind, as there will be a double-header today, so some guys might get the second game off. Be prepared to adjust. Matthew […]

With the trade deadline well behind us, that means the next major event on the fantasy baseball calendar are the playoffs. Likely one month away in most leagues, we have to come to grips that the performance of the players we have are what we are going to be stuck with for the remainder of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Eloy Jimenez has all the talent in the world, doesn’t he? When he’s healthy and “on” he often reminds me of the great Manny Ramirez – loose, smooth, and confident. But can Eloy ever stay on the field with any consistency at this point? This week it’s a hamstring injury – always a giant red […]

I love, and I mean freaking LOVE, visiting those Most Added and Most Dropped pages on sites like Yahoo and ESPN early in the season. I feel like I am Tywin Lannister or something laughing at all funny things my subjects do to try and amuse me. “Ah, look at all the townspeople rushing to […]
