Are The Mets Hitters Here To Stay? Fantasy Baseball Insider Report

If the early returns are any true indication of how the full season will play out, then Francisco Lindor will prove to be one of the best early-round picks of 2022 fantasy baseball drafts.

Bullpens to Cause Headaches in Fantasy Baseball

Collecting saves is a tricky and dangerous game in fantasy baseball. One of the major pitching categories in 5x5 roto leagues, they are hard to completely ignore. If you don't have a collection of high-end closers, it's easy to start digging into every team in the league to figure out who is going to get […]

Fantasy Baseball Trade Targets - Buy/Sell For Week 2

Making the right trades can be crucial to championship success in fantasy baseball, almost as much as the draft, if not more.

Bullpen Report: Speculating on the Red Sox, Twins, Giants, and More

While many early-season trends in baseball can be dismissed as hot or cold starts, bullpens are the one thing you should always pay close attention to and get actionable information.

Justin Verlander Is Proving He's Still An Ace

What defines a Hall of Fame pitcher? There has been a lot of debate about what the qualifications are for a pitcher to be enshrined in Cooperstown, leading to an overall lack of clarity. In the end, though, every voter is going to have their own evaluation system, which, in my opinion, makes the voting […]

How Sustainable is High Fastball Usage? Hunter Greene, Justin Steele Analysis

Hunter Greene and Justin Steele have looked very sharp to start the 2022 season.

Steven Kwan: Champ or Chump for Fantasy Baseball?

Steven Kwan was one of the biggest stories to come out of MLB's Opening Week, setting numerous records for most times on base over a player's first X games. Unsurprisingly, the 24-year-old has endured a couple of hitless games and likely won't hit .400. Now that the initial performance is in the rear-view mirror, it's […]
