Week 9 Waiver Wire: Catchers

It's officially June, which hopefully means some bats will start heating up soon. Right now it's pretty rough out there in catcher land.

Week 8 Waiver Wire: Catcher

It's kind of appropriate that it feels like summer as I write this today. The temperature's in the red and so are the ownership levels of catchers on Fleaflicker. Week Eight is not great. It's like a bad day on the stock market - there's red all over as people seem to be cutting catchers. […]

Poetry in Motion: The Speed of Jonathan Villar

Jonathan Villar is your National League steals leader. No, really. Villar has 15 SB in 21 attempts and shows no sign of slowing down--literally.
