I am shifting gears this week and focusing on some very early rankings for 2027. I will start with a list of the top 50. The rankings are subjective, based on what I saw this season. They rely heavily on present value but factor in growth or decline. I am playing to win, so I […]

I usually do a look ahead for pitching in the final weeks, but with two weeks left, I am using a similar approach to help you optimize your outfield spots for the remainder of the season. I grouped the remaining schedule by division using park factor and second-half runs allowed. Team runs allowed is directional. […]

If you’ve reached this point of the season, you know what the stakes are. Pretty much everybody reading this is in contention for their fantasy championship, and it’s essentially a two-week season at this point. That means draft stock and past statistics really don’t matter. It’s all about getting these players right for the final […]

Hit the beach for Labor Day this year. Best thing about that place (besides living within driving distance of the Outer Banks and no, it’s not like the show at all) is that there’s something for everyone. Wanna get knocked around by waves? Read? Play a rousing game of catch? Get fried like a lobster? […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Apologies for last week to my many, many fans, it was a great week, though, and there really wasn’t time to put into this what it needs to be. I had thought to do ranks, but then thought “why?” How does that help people win their leagues? So let’s go into more guys whose struggles […]

This is where the rubber meets the road. For my first set of rest-of-season rankings, referencing R.E.M. and Michael Stipe feels so appropriate here. If you’ve been staring at your outfield roster on the IL, you are not alone, because everybody hurts right now. I also want to offer a quick disclaimer. I’ve learned a […]

Dodgers are at 41% chance of winning the World Series. In a game like baseball, where anything can happen on any given day, that’s insane. Dodgers should be more like 98%. Who’s doing these odds? They’re so dumb! Why couldn’t any other team but the Dodgers get Tarik Skubal? It’s not like other teams don’t […]

The Heriberto Hernandez buys started on July 10th, when I said, “If you prorate–[Mr. Prorater skydives through my ceiling, legs crashing through, but getting stuck] Damn it, Mr. Prorater! “Sorry, I misjudged the angle. Prorated it at 45 degrees. Anyway! Heriberto is a 30/15 hitter in a full season of at-bats. Wow! Now, can you […]

Late Saturday night, the Red Sox traded Connelly Early to the Nats for Curtis Mead. Check out Curtis Mead’s trade tree: Curtis Mead was traded from the Phils to the Rays for Cristopher Sanchez. Oofa! Who says the Rays always get the best side of a trade? Next up, Mead went to the White Sox […]

Ryan O’Hearn (4-for-5, 10 RBIs and his 14th, 15th and 16th homer) did what they call in the business, The Swanson. The Swanson is when you’re box score is so full and you can’t eat another bite, then they hit another homer and, boy, now I’m not sure I can have dessert. The Swanson is […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Who has the most homers in June? Is it Kyle Schwarber because he’s the King of June? Is it Yordan Alvarez because Captan Woo Cubano is in the running for most homers in any month? Is it Junior Caminero because he has 78 homers in the last week? Is it Pete Crow-Armstrong because he colored […]
