Back in 2014 I started to do a thing. I decided I would target a pitcher, a guy no one was talking about much, and proclaim him to be my Breakout Pitcher of The Year. It worked, and now that call, my B.P.O.T.Y., is apparently my calling card with folks continually asking me about it. […]

We’re kind of like the Avengers here at the Guru team. We’ve go the best, the brightest, dare I say the best looking, on staff. Given that we’re all used to saving the world with our super powers, it’s nice when we can take a break and focus solely on fantasy sports. So, we asked […]

You asked for it, so here it is. Ray Flowers puts together a list of how an ideal draft would go. What players should be taken when? How much should the players cost? How to you judge when to take a starting pitcher versus a hitter? The Draft Book assumes a 12-team baseline for a […]

Are you looking for a way to make some serious cash with your fantasy baseball knowledge? Do you think your baseball acumen stacks up well against the field of folks that play the game? Is it possible that you follow Ray Flowers work, respect what he does, but you would love the chance to compete […]

  Amed Rosario has always had a nice hit tool, supported by speed and his position on the diamond. He’s struggled to find consistency at the dish, and for years it’s been thought that he has gotten by more on talent, than on having a plan. That seemed to change at the end of the […]

A former second baseman and shortstop eligible player, Jose Peraza enters 2019 as only eligible at shortstop. That said, he still brings a solid skill set to the table bringing speed and batting average, two traits that are in demand as we enter the 2019 campaign. Some folks seem to look right past Peraza on […]
