Dear Cal Raleigh, What the hell man?? I was convinced this dude was an awful fantasy pick given his top-100 ADP and poor batting average but guess what…he might just post the greatest fantasy season for a catcher ever! His fringe 20-steal pace is just an added insult to injury. I bow to you, Big […]

Ambulance Chasers: Sonny With A Guarantee of Meatballs
March 22, 2025 | 2025 Fantasy Baseball | 20 Commentsby: RotoSurgeon
Did you draft a starting pitcher this offseason? Well, congratulations! You now have a one-way ticket to the waiver wire in search of a replacement. This Spring may not be more or less brutal than any in the past but in the moment, it feels like the worst in years. Every day I wake up […]

DFS: Aces Galore On Tonight’s Board
September 18, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, DFS, DraftKings |by: Chris Krouch
As the title implies, there are aces all over the place for tonight’s slate. We’re going to try to pick the correct 2. Skubal, Cease, Framber, Gray, Miller, Nola, and Peralta all take the bump tonight. Out of all these guys, I’m taking Sonny Gray ($9,400) against the Pirates. He’s only given up 1 run […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The 2024 Major League Baseball season is about 13 weeks old (almost halfway done already!), which means we finally have meaningful numbers that count to start evaluating our fantasy squads. With only 27 weeks in the fantasy baseball season, even a few weeks of information should help guide us to decisions about who deserves a […]

June 26, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, DFS, DraftKings |by: Chris Krouch
We’ve been trying to find a middle ground between stacks and no stacks. Tonight feels like a prime opportunity for a Braves stack against the Cardinals. We may be going in a little blind, as there will be a double-header today, so some guys might get the second game off. Be prepared to adjust. Matthew […]

April 17, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, DFS, DraftKings, Fantasy Baseball DFS |by: Chris Krouch
Paul Blackburn has yet to give up a run this season in 19.1 innings. He only has 11 strikeouts, and he’s never been a huge strikeout pitcher. He’s got the stuff to get outs, and he will continue to show that Wednesday afternoon against the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cards have big names on the […]

MLB Risers And Fallers: Where Jordan?
August 10, 2023 | 2023 Fantasy Baseball | 3 Commentsby: CableBoxScore
With the trade deadline well behind us, that means the next major event on the fantasy baseball calendar are the playoffs. Likely one month away in most leagues, we have to come to grips that the performance of the players we have are what we are going to be stuck with for the remainder of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Sometimes when I write about fantasy baseball (and certainly when I play fantasy baseball), I feel a lot like Ruth Langmore. You’ve seen the meme from Ozark by now. Sometimes I feel like I don’t know s*** about f***. Case in point. Some dummy wrote in the preseason that the new park dimensions in Camden […]

Eloy Jimenez has all the talent in the world, doesn’t he? When he’s healthy and “on” he often reminds me of the great Manny Ramirez – loose, smooth, and confident. But can Eloy ever stay on the field with any consistency at this point? This week it’s a hamstring injury – always a giant red […]

I love, and I mean freaking LOVE, visiting those Most Added and Most Dropped pages on sites like Yahoo and ESPN early in the season. I feel like I am Tywin Lannister or something laughing at all funny things my subjects do to try and amuse me. “Ah, look at all the townspeople rushing to […]
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 […]
