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 […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I was excited when Truss messaged me yesterday and asked if I’d be willing to step in for Dan Pants to do the Daily Notes this weekend. Don’t get me wrong, I love writing up the Top 100 Starting Pitchers each week, but doing the rundown of a full Friday slate is pretty awesome too. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Spring Training has started, which means many fantasy leagues are gearing up for the season to start. Yes, some leagues have already had their drafts, but many haven’t.
As fantasy owners prepare for their upcoming league drafts or auctions or whatever process you use to add players, this week the Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025 features the players ranked 50th-26th. We are in the backstretch as next week we conclude the series.
When you look at the position and age breakdowns for this group, it should not be shocking to see 19 of the 25 players are under the age of 29 with five players under the age of 24. And you really shouldn’t be shocked to see so many pitchers. After the first two rounds of a draft, I will hunt for the top pitchers on the board, especially as more and more leagues adjust their categories to make starting pitching more meaningful other than collecting strikeouts or posting a 4.50 ERA yet get credited with a quality start.

Howdy friends, hope winter is treating you as well as can be expected, and if it isn’t, at least we’re a week closer to spring. Last week we splashed around a bit in the shallow end of the fantasy baseball pool with my NFBC 12-team mixed league draft recap, but this week we’ll dive right […]

Welcome back to another installment of Top Dynasty Keepers for 2025. We have made our trip around the infield as we highlight the third basemen this week.
This is an interesting position. There is some solid depth as you can land a good starter from the Tier 2 group or even Tier 3 if one of those players has a breakout year. But the top talent skews toward the older side as six of my top 20 players are 31 years old or older.
There are some solid players who are in their 20s, but there is no Bobby Witt Jr. or Gunnar Henderson in this group.
Overall, it is a position with one great player, a lot of above average players and then a gaggle of players who have the potential to be above average but are not there yet.

The MLB trade deadline is always an exciting time for fantasy baseball managers. Each year, the flurry of trades can significantly alter the landscape of player values. As teams bolster their rosters for a playoff push or begin to rebuild for the future, player roles shift dramatically. Some players find themselves with increased playing time or in more potent lineups, leading to a surge in their fantasy value. Meanwhile, others may see their opportunities diminish. Navigating these real-world moves can be the key to getting ahead in your league during the closing months of the season. This week, our Hitter Profiles dig into a quick-hitter version of buy and sell for many of the key players moved at the deadline. Buckle up, as who knows what can happen when AJ Preller and Jerry Dipoto get involved.

The Baltimore Orioles made a huge stride in bolstering their starting pitching staff Friday trading for Rays starter Zach Eflin. About Eflin time! Eflin has struggled with consistency all season long with an unsightly 4.09 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and underwhelming 87/13 K/BB, but there have been flashes of the pitcher we saw in 2023 (3.50 […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?I really enjoy golfing, and I’m sure I’m not alone–there’s got to be a lot of Happy Gilmore wannabe’s out there in Razzball Nation. Golf may be the hardest sport to be good at (outside of hitting a baseball from a major league pitcher?), due in part to the dozens of things that have to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?A week ago, Wednesday, Analytics Anonymous held a special fantasy baseball draft meeting to evaluate how our lessons are being implemented. Specifically, myself, and 11 of my new AA friends, took part in the Razzball Commenter League (RCL) #11. These RCL leagues are 12-team Rotisserie scoring leagues hosted on Fantrax and free for all (there […]

Howdy, Razzpeeps! It’s Saturday, and you know what that means? It is time for Razzball Ambulance Chasers, your fantasy baseball injury analysis. Every Thursday or Friday, I email Matt Truss to help me make sure I don’t do things like spell “roles” as “rolls”. Except one time that really did happen and neither Truss nor […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Under the arch in St. Louis, the weather is heating up and so are the bats of two Nolans. Between Nolan Arenado and Nolan Gorman, the Cardinals boast two of the hottest bats in recent weeks. Over the last 14 days, a total of 12 home runs, 19 runs and 33 RBI has turned the disaster of a season for the Cardinals into some form of senseless hope that the NL Central loves to foster. Between a potential future hall of farmer in Arenado and a young 23-year-old bat figuring things out at the major league level, our Top 100 hitters see the law firm of Nolan and Nolan moving on up. Who else is gaining value for the rest of the season? Read on as we dive into the Top 100 hitters for the rest of the 2023 fantasy baseball season.
