Can Yoshinobu Yamamoto Continue His Dominance in the MLB?

In a normal offseason, signing a player to a 12-year $325 million deal would be a team's biggest acquisition, but with Shohei Ohtani signing with the Dodgers for $700 million, it has been anything but a normal offseason.

A Year to Forget: Fantasy Baseball Pitchers Who Will Rebound in 2024

Fantasy baseball managers drafted these pitchers in 2023 expecting them to deliver results, however, they underperformed expectations relative to their ADP.
