My final deep dive into the middle infield depth charts of an entire division. The NL West isn’t too shabby — and it’s deep.

My final deep dive into the middle infield depth charts of an entire division. The NL West isn’t too shabby — and it’s deep.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Greetings deep league friends! As we inch closer to summer, it feels like we’re at an extra dull part of the season when it comes to help on the waiver wire. The early season happy surprises have all been rostered, but it’s too soon for what hopefully will be a wave of promising minor league […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?“Pump up the jam, pump it up,” was what I was singing during the shortstops rankings. And now we’re not singing fun, party songs anymore. Submerge yourself into a garbage dump; take a deep breath…Ah, that’s the smell of the top 20 3rd basemen for 2025 fantasy baseball. Don’t turn your nose up! Don’t turn […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The year is 2045. All the years after 2038 have been a blur because, seven years prior, I was hit by a flying car, and now my frozen head is in a jar, and the visibility is very poor through formaldehyde. Something no one talks about! “Hey, Charlie, how well can you see in that […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Howdy, ya’ll! It’s another week which means another fantasy baseball injury report to make or break your season. It’ll be over soon (you choose if that is menacing or hopeful). Here’s something that feels weird but familiar to say: Jacob deGrom is back and made his first starting appearance since April 2023. In his rehab […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The other day Bo Bichette announced he still wants to play for the Jays. Cool, I still want to practice my 13 years of Spanish with Salma Hayek. Hola, mi amor, I will say as we laugh and hold peaches to each other’s mouths. Mi amor, you’re letting it drip down my chin! Si, I […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Started Keider Montero because of the Streamonator and I felt dirty, but call me a dirty, dirty boy because I am rolling in the filth! I am howling in the pigsty of life, baby! I am eating where I crap! I am saying no to bacon because it is literally me. I am not a […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Submerge yourself into a garbage dump; take a deep breath…Ah, that’s the smell of the top 20 3rd basemen for 2024 fantasy baseball. Don’t turn your nose up! Don’t turn away from the stench! This is the reality about, uh, fantasy. You have to embrace the stank of the 3rd basemen. Enjoy!
Please, blog, may I have some more?One super quick word about the top 20 2nd basemen for 2024 fantasy baseball and all the 2024 fantasy baseball rankings, each ranking appears insanely long and it is, but I imagine in a lot of leagues guys won’t have eligibility, because I’m using the extremely lax Yahoo position eligibility (five games started).
Please, blog, may I have some more?The journey through the 2024 Top Keepers continues this week with a look at the top shortstops. Compared to some of the other positions we’ve covered, shortstop is actually a pretty deep position. If you get stuck with a Tier 4 player, like a Jeremy Pena or Tommy Edman, you still have a decent shortstop on your hands.
Even in Tier 5 (players ranked 31-40), you still can get a decent utility player or fulltime shortstop with some solid upside. Meanwhile, the top shortstops are players who are not just the best at this position, but are some of the best players in the game. Overall, this is a strong group of players.
Now, on to the rankings!
Please, blog, may I have some more?After going over keeper relievers, keeper starters and keeper catchers in October, we turned our attention to the top infield keepers last week with a look at the keeper first basemen.
This week we continue the trip around the infield by looking at the second basemen.
I’m pretty sure I said this last year, but I will say it again: second base is the scrapheap of major league baseball. It seems every manager believes anyone can play second base – and they may be right. You have players getting starts at the spot that you would think would never play there – like a Brandon Drury. Right fielders, center fielders, third basemen, first basemen – they are all getting time at second base.
With so many fantasy leagues requiring middle infielders, the list of keepers is long and the bar to be on the list consists of players who had to have at least 10 starts at second base.
Enough with the chit chat, on to the 2024 Top Keepers – Second Basemen
Please, blog, may I have some more?We’re back with what I like to call: My Conspiracy That Getaway Day Is The Best Day For Pitching. Am I wearing a tinfoil hat? Yes, what’s the alternative? I forgot my Big Jugs trucker hat and you want me to get melanoma? That’s awful, friend. This conspiracy theory, that the lamestream media is saying is more misleading than The Clinton Kill List, might just be confirmation basis, but, I ask you, gentle reader with a fading hairline, what good is a confirmation basis if that shizz ain’t confirming anything? I got more blind spots than an Airstream trailer, but I see every pitcher around baseball yesterday pitching well, and I ask you, take my hand and follow me to Conspiracy Loonloon Land. Take my hand metaphorically! Let go of my hand, you weirdo! So, Kodai Senga (6 IP, 0 ER, 4 baserunners, 10 Ks, ERA at 2.95) threw another gem. Was it because it was Thursday? Who’s to say? (It was.) I begged people to draft Senga this year, as he was going around 175 overall and an absolute steal. Speaking of which, I present to you frequent commenter, Oaktown Steve’s comment from yesterday that everyone should read:
