Poetry in Motion: The Ageless Wonder of Ichiro Suzuki

Ichiro Suzuki is still fantasy-relevant. That's probably the least bold statement I've made to start any article in this weekly series, but it's still quite surprising if you fully understand the context.

Welcome to the weekend, RotoBallers. Today we have a rather strange full slate, split up between nine early games starting at 2:10 pm ET and five late games starting at 8:15 pm ET.

Week 11 Waiver Wire: Catchers
