I don’t know about you, but over the past few years I’ve often found myself targeting Adam Frazier as a pick up in season when injury strikes. He never does much to get excited about, but he’s always been a useful substitute piece once players start visiting the doctor’s office with regularity. This season he […]

From the Gut: My Draft Portfolio
There is only one thing better than fantasy baseball draft season. The actual games – and even that’s debatable with just how much fun draft season is! Well, we are right on the precipice of Opening Day, and I hope we helped you properly prepare for your drafts. I just flew back from NFBC weekend […]
2019 NFBC Main Event
Sin City. Booze. Blackjack. Shows. Lap dances. The date – March 23rd, 2019. The reason for traveling to Vegas, the third weekend out of four that I’ve been on the road in March (LABR and Tout Wars were the others), was to participate in Main Event of The NFBC for the Beat Ray Flowers Challenge. […]
2019 Player Profile: Justus Sheffield
One of my favorite, late round dart throws on the board this season is Justus Sheffield (see my LABR and Tout Wars teams where he ended up on my squads). Sheffield was recently demoted to the minors by the Mariners, but that doesn’t dampen his prospects this season, at least in my eyes, as I […]
2018 Splits: NL Pitchers
Which guys are good against lefties? Which batters struggle against soft tossers? Conversely, which arms struggle at home or dominate hitters with swing and miss tendencies? In what can be a maddening game of chasing numbers down a rabbit hole, it’s nice to have someone hold your hand and guide you through the maze, or […]
2019 Player Profile: Pablo Lopez
Prior to last season, Pablo Lopez has never thrown a pitch above Single-A, yet in June he was in The Show. He made 10 starts before his shoulder was barking enough to get him sent to the sidelines. Three months ago, no one was talking about Lopez. If we judge his current level of interest […]
Divisions and Arms
Jeff Mans has a big ego, and a loud voice. Therefore, I do whatever I can to minimize his importance when at all possible. However, in this instance he deserves full credit. The basis of this article is the work that Jeff Mans put together to share with his audience on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio […]
2019 Player Profile: Matt Strahm
Matt Strahm is 27 years old and has all 118 innings as a big-league pitcher. Still, he throws four pitches, misses an awful lot of bats, and limits the walks to the point that they should never preclude him from having success. It seems like the Padres will utilize him out of the rotation this […]
Battle of the Experts – Starling Marte
Ray Flowers and Vlad Sedler take counter positions on a single player, one for, one against. Which one of our experts do you agree with? Does either strike a knockout blow? Is there a TKO? Is there a need for another round? Two or our best analysts give their thoughts on a player for the […]
Battle of the Experts – Shane Bieber
