If your playoffs haven’t started already, they’re likely about to. Hopefully you’ve already got your spot in them locked up. If not, and you’re reading this, it means you’re still in it and are on edge, figuring out who you can trust to get you over the line. At this time of the year, at […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Corbin Carroll had two of Arizona’s FIFTEEN hits last night as the D-Backs did their best impression of the worst hosts in baseball with a 9-0 thumping of Nick Lodolo and the Cincinnati Reds. The Snakes were biting in Arizona as Gabriel Moreno (2-for-5, 1 RBI, 5th SB), Geraldo Perdomo (3-for-5, 2 R, 1 RBI), […]

Saw an open house on RedFin recently of the Rockies’ front office. You enter from the parking lot into the lobby, which was built to resemble a giant ear canal. Then you travel into the main workspace, where the office and personnel is supposed to be and it was designed to appear to be a […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?If there’s one universal Cubs’ voice, let’s imagine them singing their version of this old 80’s classic: “You know I love you (you know I love you), you know it’s true (you know it’s true) It’s up to you, Clay, now what have I got to do? Don’t hold me up, Holmes, don’t waste my […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Also, in baseball just as in life, the process of aging plays a part. With players who are getting older (in baseball years at least), decline is a real issue. As a result, as fantasy managers, being patient with aging players is harder than it is with young stars like Crow-Armstrong and Rice or players still in their prime like Alvarez. With older guys, when a long, bad streak rears its ugly head, it’s reasonable to wonder if the guy is just washed. Two such players who have piqued my concerns this season are Gleyber Torres (mostly due to injury) and Marcus Semien. Yet, both guys show up on the MLB leader board for runs scored over the last 15-game period. This led me to a deeper dive to find out if there’s value to be had. Here’s what I found.

Injuries happen. They happen to every position, every season. But it sure feels like the top of the outfield has been particularly snakebitten by them this year, doesn’t it? Just look at the names who were, if not top-10 picks at the position, certainly must-start players who are currently on the shelf: Aaron Judge, Juan […]

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 […]

I wanna talk about Troy Melton but first we have to acknowledge the Tigers scored 14 with the hitting stars being: Gleyber Torres (2-for-5, 5 RBIs and his 5th homer). I’m convinced Hinch saw that Gleyber used to bat at the top of the Yanks’ lineup — three years ago — and was like, “Welp, […]

Yesterday, Jackson Merrill went 2-for-4 with his 14th homer, 2nd homer in two games, four homers in four games. Okay, but what you really want to talk about is how Luis Rengifo homered — a tomato is thrown, and it connects — Bull’s eye to side of my head. Ow! What? Rengifo could do something–A […]
