Brewers called up Caleb Durbin. What? No, not Dyler Turban. Hey, first rule of Vindaloo Club is don’t talk about the Pakistani Brad Pitt playing Dyler Turban in the Bollywood movie, Vindaloo Club.

Paris Dishing Out Some Batatouille
April 8, 2025 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 322 Commentsby: Grey
Yesterday, Kyren Paris (1-for-3, 2 RBIs) hit his 3rd homer. At the worst, a hot schmotato. At the best, he’s hosting the last Olympics in his brain and we’re all Raygun. At most realistic, he’ll be hot for a few weeks until teams figure him out. At the most illuminating, I just realized Gaylord Perry […]

*nudges the Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell, and it doesn’t move* “Oh my God, the Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell is dead!” Drowsily, the Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell wakes on the couch, “I’m not dead, you idiot. I’m hungover. Could you please stop screaming?” “Woo hoo! The Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell is alive!” Rubbing temples, sitting up and asking, “What time […]

Look at me, throwing shade like a beach umbrella! That makes sense…if you don’t think about it! That’s what I want my bumper sticker to say, “That makes sense….if you don’t think […]

Last year I had an accident where I slammed my head into a wall, which caused me to say stupid things, and I said Elly De La Cruz was overrated. Thankfully, I had an operation, removing the idiot from my brain and I have a chance to make amends. As they always say, “Make amends, […]

The best 2025 fantasy baseball team is the friends we made along the way. Also, the title is hyperbole. What was I gonna say, “The Mostly Kinda Good Fantasy Baseball Team?” You’ll get over your scoffing, you freakin’ scoffer! This is the best 2025 fantasy baseball team that I can put together when drafting from […]

Top 400 Dynasty Players for 2025: 200-176
January 8, 2025 | Fantasy Baseball Keepers | 19 Commentsby: Jakkers
After two weeks of rankings where I lumped players ranked 400-301 into one group and then players 300-201 into a second group, this is the week in which I break out the rankings into groups of 25. For this week, that means players ranked 200-176.
The overall breakdown of this group tends to be a little older compared to those ranked higher. Eleven players are between the ages of 30-34, 11 are in the 25-29 age range and three players are 24 or younger.
As for the position breakdown, there are two relievers, two starting pitchers, one catcher, two third basemen, one shortstop and one DH. Nine players are outfielders, either at one outfield position or multiple, while another five are “utility” players, which for this purpose means they can play at least one infield and one outfield position.

Please, blog, may I have some more? Top 50 Dynasty Keepers for 2025 – Center Fielders
December 4, 2024 | Fantasy Baseball Keepers | 22 Commentsby: Jakkers
Thanksgiving is behind us, which means two things – the Holiday season is in full swing, and the 2025 Top Dynasty Keepers for 2025 series is in the home stretch.
This week we focus on center fielders, leaving only right fielders and true designated hitters remaining.
For me, the center field position ranks only behind the shortstops when it comes to talent and depth. If you are starting a team from scratch, my first pick is coming from either the shortstop or center field position. This is a position where I am counting on young players to build my team around.
Of the 50 players ranked below, only six of them are 30 or older and a total of 18 ranked players are 25-year-old or younger.
So this is a position that give you a key player for the next half decade or longer.
Please, blog, may I have some more? JJ Bleday: Up-And-Coming Dynasty Player
September 21, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, Fantasy Baseball Keepers, Keeper Leagues | 3 Commentsby: Jakkers
The MLB season is nearly at an end and the playoffs are in site. But what is not at an end is this wonderful weekly Up-and-Coming Dynasty Players post!
So welcome back and take a few minutes to read why I think JJ Bleday is an Up-and-Coming Dynasty Player.
Bleday was the SEC Player of the Year in 2019 and was a Golden Spikes finalist for the best college player of the year. Drafted by the Marlins as the fourth overall pick of the 2019 draft, Bleday never really found his footing in the organization and was traded to Oakland ahead of the 2023 season for A.J. Puk.
With a resume of ups-and-downs in the minors and now being 26 years old, I can understand if you think I am crazy to think that Bleday is an up-and-coming dynasty player. I understand that argument. I mean he is 26! That is usually past the point for a player selected 4th overall to still be trying to establish himself.
But for some players, the adjustment from college to the minors to the majors can take longer than expected. I believe that Bleday is one of those players.
So let’s take a dive into his performance and why he has turned his career around with the Athletics this season.
