Things were quiet…too quiet last week so of course, we are back with another edition of Ambulance Chasers in Week 2. The Baseball Gods laughed as we got our hopes up during Opening Weekend. The past few games have not been a bloodbath but they also have not been kind. Several big-name stars are going […]

March just began and I am already sick of the injury train that is rolling. Luckily, we have avoided significant issues but those are inevitable. Sports are not kind to players’ bodies. We in the fantasy community should be ever grateful for the talents we witness daily. Every day I scroll the horrible, no-good X/Twitter […]

Baseball season is BACK! We have a lovely mix of Spring Training games underway and soul-crushing injuries reported every morning. The good news is that we are still a month away from games that count. Most injury updates thus far are luckily mild-to-moderate rather than season-ending. Nevertheless, we must be wary as fantasy drafts are […]

This week’s list is focused on some players who miiiiiight just be available in your standard 12-team […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Because Major League Baseball doesn’t do anything fun like throwing players battling for a position into a coliseum pit to fight to the death, we have to settle for them figuring things out on the field. LAME. Yes, baseball’s version of The Purge is quite mundane, but that’s not to say there are not still […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Sound the small sample size alarm, because it’s time once again to cast season-long judgment on less than two months’ worth of data for players. But this is the information we have, and fantasy baseball is a reactionary game. We can’t pause our waivers or our FAAB to get a better, more longitudinal look at […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Good day Razzballers, and Happy Mothers Day to all you mothers out there: We are watching history. While 2022 isn’t exactly the Dead-Ball Era that Babe Ruth revolutionized, the league-wide batting average is around .230, the implementation of the DH in the National League seemingly has no positive effect on slugging percentage yet (Brandon Drury […]

Good day All, If you’ve been focusing on the NFL Draft this week, I’m happy to report we’ve had another exciting week of baseball. The Mets combined to pitch a no-hitter against the Phillies this past Friday, Bryce Harper and Mike Trout earned their 10th year of MLB service time (I feel old), and yes […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Brent (@ExitVelo_BH), Jordan (@ExitVelo_JR), and Zach (@Braffz), breakdown the MLB 60 game schedule and what teams have the easiest path to the playoffs. The Twins, Padres, Indians, and White sox have a great chance to make the playoff and compete. The Angels, Athletics, and Rockies have some of the tougher schedules in the league. We discuss the underrated fantasy assets on teams that will compete. Can Wil Myers, Franmil Reyes, Luis Robert make impacts on their rosters? We discuss our award winners in a 60 game season. Can Josh Hader as a reliever get CY Young consideration? We all agree Josh Hader will be a very valuable asset in fantasy leagues. We talk about the future of the Exit Velocity Podcast and guests we will feature, highlighted by SP Streamer, Carter Capps, Adam Aizer, Chelsea Ladd, and Deegs. We also launched a new podcast store on Instagram (exitvelocitypc), which include shirts, mugs, koozies, wine glasses, and beer steins!

The drumbeat of social distancing goes on. But as Rob Manfred says, baseball will happen….eventually. And the New York Mets will have a left fielder too. Or will it be a few left fielders? This whole quarantine thing is managing to make seasons possible that seemed impossible. In other words, those we thought would miss large portions of the the season are now in play. There was a time Yoenis Cespedes would strike fear into opposing pitchers. Then he signed with the Mets. Okay, that’s not fair, he did hit 31 home runs and was an All Star two years ago. But that was two years ago. Now he’s 34, and thanks to his lingering issues J.D. Davis, among others, got his chance. So what will happen in 2020?
