Are you guys ready for some football!? (Gotta love that interrobang, and I think you know why. Har har.) Great! (I’m assuming you answered yes.) We only have, roughly, 234 weeks left until the football season. Listen, I get it. Baseball is still the current choice to be played in your mother’s basement (I love your mother’s basement, by the way), and the season hasn’t even reached the half-way point yet. Even if you are in last place, there’s plenty of time to right that ship and something-something sailing metaphor. But I just came on over here to let you know that Razzball’s fantasy football season content schedule is about to come into full bloom. I also came here to tell you that I’m going to come into full bloom… in your mother’s basement. One of these day’s I’ll run out of your mom jokes. But today is not that day. So while we take a moment to go over what was this week in Razz (baseball!), be sure to start checking up on the fantasy football side of things in the coming month, where we’ll have the 2015 Draft Kit, Rankings, Game of Thrones podcast discussions (which you can listen to now!) along with some football talk… maybe, and all the things you’ve come to love about Razzball. Me! (That’s totally why. Don’t say another word.)
Follow me after the jump to take a look back at what was week four AND a look forward on all things Razzball, including some player suggestions for next week, straight from Razzball’s Streamonator, Hitter-Tron, and DFSBot!
This Past Week…
Bonus points goes to Prospector Mike for the punniest title of the week. For his minor league spotlight, he developed a “Dahl Pain“. Then he lost those points, coming up with the worst punny title of the week, going over J-FOH’s “May Flowers” for the Razznasty League update.
J-FOH, for the ninth straight week (what a pace!) released his Top-100 Hitters for the week. With only three hyperlinks in his intro… what’s next? Stigmata? Or maybe a RCL Update? Yeah, probably that one.
JB Gilpin, in response to J-FOH’s continued rankings attack (is this conflict actually a thing?), released his Top-100 Pitchers rankings. He also listened to Grey yell about social media from his lawn chair in the latest RazzPod.
Say it ain’t so! RotoLance wondered if you should sell Steven Souza or not.
Magoo went over the waiver wire, wondering if you should buy or sell Preston Tucker and Jose Quintana, and then focused a spotlight on Troy Tulowitzki, wondering why he’s the destroyer all of our hopes and dreams.
Paulie released part 2 of what is a special mini-series based on the Cardinals “Gas House Gang”. You can read part 1 here.
In what was probably the best Game of Thrones episode this season, Tehol intertwines “Hardhome” with Joey Gallo’s arrival to the bigs. A stretch, but one only Tehol could preform.
In his Razzball debut, Elliot gave you a much anticipated update covering all the OPS and OBP leagues out there. Be sure to check it out!
Smokey updated his closer rankings for Week 9, and then told you that you could spell Melancon without a “K”. I knew that. Did you know that? I think you knew that too…
Dave is back with another fascinating look at Odubel Herrera’s swing mechanics, and Malamoney covered all of you that play in points leagues.
Next Week…
The Streamonator seems to think Chris Heston will have a good week. He’s rated as your 26th highest pitcher. He’s be rated the number person if he was actually Charlton Heston. Well, movie Charlton Heston. Not the real life one.
The Hitter-Tron has Wilin Rosario as the 12th rated hitter for next week. I’m okay with it if he gets enough at-bats, but the high-risk/high-reward bet might be to go with Justin Boar (that’s his real name, I swear!). He’s 18th on the list.
And be sure to check in everyday for our Daily Fantasy content, led by Sky and company. They’ve been bringing you all the tips and strategy you need to win that cash-monies. Our DFSBot is also there to help guide your way to that aforementioned cash-monies. Mmmm, cash-monies.
Want more of the Jay? Don’t we all folks? Don’t. We. All. Well, you, in fact, can have more. AMAZING. I know. You can find Jay enjoying his dig’s over at the Football side of Razz.
