It’s always so hard to know if a guy is GREAT uppercase, great lowercase or “Meh, was great but that’s because the Braves suck–Excuse me, I mean, the team he was facing sucked.” Though, the Braves do suck. Hard not to see that going on two years. So, was Merrill Kelly GREAT uppercase, great lowercase […]

Hey, look! A decent batch of two start options! After a couple weeks of pretty unappealing offerings, this week provides some sweet relief. That said, it isn’t without some sour notes of its own. For instance, Nathan Eovaldi was originally lined up for double duty this week, but left his last start early and is […]

Prospect News: Jac In The Box or Denzel In Training
May 25, 2025 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Featured | 15 Commentsby: The Itch
Earlier this week, the Rangers signed Korean high schooler Seong-Jun Kim and announced they will develop him as a two-way player. I’ve only seen the hype video the org posted, but he looks best at shortstop, then on the mound, then with the bat. I’ve noticed he’s getting added in a bunch of Fantrax leagues, but I’m probably not spending any spots on him. Feels like every FAAB run these days involves several young players I really want to add and hold for the long term, but Kim would fall into a trade-chip bucket for me because I’m not patient like that. Kim won’t join the club until January, making him something like a half-decade away from impacting our game in the categories.

I searched “Ward” for the last three weeks, and there was at least 500 comments asking to drop Ward. All coming after, on May 6th, I said Taylor Ward (3-for-4, 5 […]

Pirates Put Burrows Before Yohohos

Carmen Mlodzinski optioned to the minors, and the Pirates called up Mike Burrows, which is a bizarre way to spell Bubba Chandler. MLB teams are so goofy with how they don’t promote their best players. Can you imagine any other sport being like this? “He’s our best running back, so he’s going to spend a […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Rangers RHP Jack Leiter is a good place to start because he exemplifies what’s weird about the Futures Game. Leiter hasn’t earned his spot on the field (6.30 ERA), but that’s not uncommon to this game, which different organizations use for different reasons on a player-by-player basis. It’s not an All-Star game, in other words. It’s not even an all-famous game, although that’s what gets Leiter on the roster. It’s not even really a combination of the two. Some organizations might send a middle reliever, like Baltimore did with Marcos Diplan in 2021, who the team DFA’d the other day, almost exactly a year after Diplan gave up home runs to Brennan Davis and Francisco Alvarez in Coors Field during the sixth inning of last year’s Futures Game.
