If you’ve played fantasy baseball for a while, you know how hard it can be to find enough quality outfielders to field a competitive team all year long. The good news for fantasy managers is that there are some big names on the way, thanks in part to the 2020 amateur draft which had a […]

Launch Angle Analysis - Potential HR Risers

J.D. Martinez: Bounce-Back or Fantasy Bust?
It's easy to forget that just three short years ago, J.D Martinez was considered the best hitter in baseball.

Martinez followed up that season with a very solid 2019, but his production completely fell off in […]

2021 Keeper Value Rankings - Second Base
Many many years ago, I noticed the managers in my long-time keeper league were consistently making terrible keeper decisions year after year.

Snake drafts are the more common method, but salary cap leagues offer a more complex flavor to your draft day.

Using Sabermetrics for Fantasy Baseball: Batting Order
You may be wondering why there aren't any advanced stats aimed at predicting a player's counting stats like runs and RBI. The answer is simple: modern sabermetrics reject the idea of a "clutch RBI guy" and therefore do not bother inventing predictive metrics for it. Runs and RBI are team-dependent stats and are unhelpful in ascertaining […]
