Please see our player page for Connor Norby to see projections for today, the next 7 days and rest of season as well as stats and gamelogs designed with the fantasy baseball player in mind.

Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect powered past six pristine innings putting on a powerful performance as he piled up nine punchouts! Is that too long for a headline? I really went full stop into the alliteration there, I’m so sorry, let me try again. Bucs heartthrob Jared Jones allowed just four base runners Friday to pick […]

Connor Norby aka Con-Nor is again the Rockies pulling a fast one on an unsuspecting trade partner. Here’s the Rockies’ front office, “Who will we tantalizingly ruse this time? The Marlins? Okay, watch this,” then they do a move that you’re just left to wonder, “Are the Rockies so insanely dumb that they’re smart?” It’s […]

It is easy to make decisions in fantasy (or in life, for that matter) that feel well considered and justified. And, in fact, they may well be thoughtful, rational, and right responses to previous situations. It’s not so easy to let go of those decisions once we have made them. It is less easy to see that situations may change. People may change. Skills may change. The better we are at going back and reconsidering our own figurative tunnels of thinking, quite likely the better we are at adapting and succeeding in fantasy baseball (or, again, in life, for that matter). Recently, I’ve had the opportunity to reevaluate a couple of players that I had previously soured on. Now, I’m rethinking my assessment of them and thought to put them up for your consideration as well.

Greetings friends! If my calendar is correct, we’ve got exactly one month left in baseball’s regular season, and therefore exactly one month left in most standard format fantasy seasons. It’s been another week that’s felt somewhat like one step forward, two steps back, with some unfortunate injuries popping up, hitters going cold at the worst […]

One thing Colorado President of Baseball Operations Paul DePodesta has retrained from his Moneyball days of decades ago is an exhaustive search for discarded talent. Enter new Rockies 2B Connor Norby, a 26-year-old in his third major league organization. He’s an imperfect player who’s perhaps not powerful enough to strike out as much as he does, but he’s a decent defender at the keystone, and he’s slashing .355/.394/.613 in his last 13 games with Colorado. That line comes along with a 33.3 percent strikeout rate, so it’s probably not real close to sustainable, but I think there’s upside here for the fantasy game, and second base is not a deep spot. What this means for Charlie Condon, I do not know. Best guess is he’ll join the big league club in September.

Marlins have been rebuilding since the early 2000’s, but there was never a real feeling that they were trying. I can’t remember a time the Reds haven’t been rebuilding. But the Orioles? They’ve been rebuilding for what, 15 years? Okay, but they were supposed to be done rebuilding! They were sniffing glue on their prospects […]
