Finding the right player to fill your roster at first base or third base can make all the difference in deeper leagues.

The Case for Punting Saves Midseason

Over the first eight weeks of the 2017 season, 14 teams underwent a change in the closer’s role, whether as a result of injury or ineffectiveness. Two of those teams, the Nationals and the Phillies, are on their third arm. Some of these clubs have since turned back to their original ninth-inning man, but the […]

Champ or Chump: Tyler Anderson & Masahiro Tanaka

Nothing is more discouraging than watching your fantasy pitcher get lit up like a Christmas tree every time he toes the rubber. ERA and WHIP are both rate stats, meaning that it takes a lot of good performances to smooth over a disaster. Furthermore, owners with IP caps eventually reach a point where they don't […]

Strikeout Rate Risers and Fallers for Week 9: Buy or Sell?

Missing bats is the #1 way a pitcher can control his own fate. If hitters make contact, the pitcher is largely at the mercy of the atmosphere, the weather, the ball park, the ability/work ethic of his fielders, and sometimes just sheer luck. This is ultimately why strikeouts are so important. By looking at pitchers […]

Buy or Sell - Underowned and Overowned Players for Week 10

Now may be a good time to mention that I advocated picking up Justin Bour back on May 1, although in a different column. Rather than simply calling him a waiver wire pickup or streamer, I'm going all in on the big man. Never let it be said that I'm not an unabashed fan of […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 9

Another quiet week in the world of bullpens, and few fantasy owners will complain about that.

But, as always, it wasn't a completely quiet week, […]

ADP Arbitrage - Mid-Round Targets for MFL10 Fantasy Drafts

The Wisdom of Crowds is a concept theorized by philosopher Francis Galton, who observed at a county fair in 1906 a group of over 800 people guessing the weight of an ox that was on display. While the majority of people were off by a fair amount, the median guess was 1208 pounds, less than […]

Week 9 Waiver Wire: Catchers

Once again, it seems like catchers have about as much forward momentum, stat-wise, as Buster Posey did when he rushed out to protect Hunter Strickland after Bryce Harper charged the mound. Oh... wait. Anyways, when I open the statistics page for catchers, this is what I feel like doing when I see nearly the same […]
