Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report (Week 8): Changing Bullpens, Speculating Saves and Elite Ratios

Remember in the last couple of weeks when I said that changes in bullpens would pick up? In the last week, we have seen a veteran closer return from IL, an all-time great removed as his team's closer, and the best team in baseball attempt to get by with its closer on the sideline.  Oh, […]

Daniel Hudson - Fantasy Baseball Closers, Saves, Waiver Wire Pickups

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Who is the Dodgers' Closer Now?

Last week, I started off this article by saying it had been a slow week in bullpen news. Now, even a slow week provides some fantasy-relevant tidbits, but for the most part, there were no huge changes. That is not the case this week. One of the best teams in baseball just put their closer […]


Yennier Cano - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

Every week, I write about the many different ways that bullpens around the leagues have changed.

Xavier Worthy - Fantasy Football, Rankings, NFL Draft Sleepers, Injury News, Wide Receiver

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Ladd McConkey, Xavier Worthy, Brian Thomas Jr., and More

Unless you live under a rock, you have heard all about the elite three receivers that sit atop this draft class. They are all elite and should be great fantasy football options from Day 1. I wrote about them here (ADD). But the class does not end there. There is a ton of receiver depth […]


Mason Miller - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB Prospects, Draft Sleepers

Florio's Bullpen Report: Mason Miller Elite, Sneaky Relievers to Add

All offseason long in fantasy baseball articles, podcasts, and radio shows, you hear about clarity with bullpens.

[…]


Malik Nabers - Fantasy Football Rankings, College FB, WR, NFL Draft Sleepers

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Malik Nabers, Marvin Harrison Jr., Rome Odunze

Back in the day, there was a narrative about the “third-year breakout” for wide receivers. But in the last decade, we have seen more and more rookies make an immediate impact both in the NFL and in fantasy football. Two of the three-highest-scoring PPR seasons by a rookie WR have happened in the last three […]

Drake Maye - Fantasy Football Rankings, College FB, QB, NFL Draft Sleepers

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Maye, McCarthy, Penix, Nix, and more

Quarterback is the hardest position to scout. No one can get inside a QB's head and I am not going to pretend like I know who has the intangibles and who doesn’t. I do not know if any of them did not have their friends attend their birthday party. But what I can judge is […]


Caleb Williams - Fantasy Football Rankings, College FB, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Florio's NFL/Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels

NFL Draft season is here! I have been covering the draft for a few years now and there has been a recent class that will have more of an impact on fantasy than this one. We could see six QBs go in the first round and even more pass-catchers.  You have definitely heard plenty of […]

Florio's Bullpen Report: Changes in Kansas City, Colorado, and Philly?

It’s awesome having fantasy baseball back in our lives. Checking lineups, box scores, and more importantly -- fantasy live scoring.

Stefon Diggs Fantasy Football Trade Impact - What The Trade Means for Texans, Bills and Fantasy

This is an article I did not expect to write. Or maybe, as a Bills fan, I hoped that I never had to write it. When the news broke that Stefon Diggs was traded to the Texans I had to check multiple times that it was not from a burner account.  But it is true. […]
