Welcome back to my Fantasy Baseball Breakout Hitters article for Week 17 of the 2026 MLB regular season. The goal of this article is to highlight players who could be breaking out, diving into current active hitting streaks, along with recent leaders in batting average, isolated power (ISO), stolen bases, and more. With no games […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to another edition of overachievers to trade away. Each week of the fantasy baseball season, we look at which star players are sell-high candidates. Last week, we dove into players like Michael King, Emerson Hancock, and Liam Hicks. For this week, we will look at four players fantasy managers should be looking […]

The All-Star break is over, and now is the perfect time to start targeting the next wave of prospects who could give your fantasy team a boost in the second half. Some of these minor leaguers can help across all five categories, while some are speed or power specialists. Like always, we’re highlighting five prospects […]

This article is back for the third year in a row. Alvin Kamara and Javonte Williams were hits in the 2025 edition, while Joe Mixon and James Conner were not so much (but that was mostly due to injury). As always, with many of my articles, I won't highlight the obvious players who fit the […]

The 2025 rookie class of running backs generated considerable excitement throughout the fantasy community surrounding their entrance into the NFL. Enthusiasm surged due to the exceptional depth within this talented class, as a group of these newcomers appeared destined to deliver sustained value to managers who selected them during the 2025 draft season. One year later, […]

The 2026 NFL season may still be a few months away, but there's no better time than the present to prepare for your redraft fantasy football leagues. Having already completed at least 50 drafts, I can tell you the back end of this year's running back landscape is particularly interesting. Today, we'll look at eight […]

Often, fantasy football managers put too much emphasis on hitting in the first couple of rounds of their drafts. While it is important to avoid early round busts, it’s nearly impossible to be crowned a champion without a little late-round help. With June now behind us, all 32 teams will begin their training camps in […]

Finding league-winning value at wide receiver is all about identifying talented players before the rest of your league catches on. Half of this year's ADP top four -- Puka Nacua and Amon-Ra St. Brown -- were once considered deep sleepers. Are the sleeper names on this list going to become All-Pro wide receivers and recurring […]

Multiple factors should determine the viability of incorporating a Zero RB approach as you consider strategies to address the position in upcoming drafts. This underscores the importance of creating a flexible plan that helps you adjust to developments that emerge during the draft process. That could include targeting players from other positions if managers in […]

The All-Star break affords us a chance to press pause and take stock of our strengths, weaknesses, and potential avenues to success. Some years, I take a wide stance with this column and include an aggressive number of players who are rostered in a healthy swath of leagues, but we're going to zoom in a […]

The term league-winner will be tossed around during the fantasy football offseason. Sometimes, it's a buzzy term that we can overuse. However, when we think of league-winning players, we should consider those that we wish we had on our rosters. Some of these wide receivers had down seasons last year, so it's a chance to […]

Some NFL teams have the same WR1 year-over-year. Puka Nacua, Ja'Marr Chase, and Amon-Ra St. Brown come to mind. These guys aren't going anywhere, and they're set to produce for fantasy teams once again in 2026. Other teams turn over more often, either via trades, free agency, or the NFL Draft. New players assume new […]

The Panthers' backfield flipped on its head in 2025. After scorching his way to an RB14 fantasy finish in 15 games in 2024, Chuba Hubbard lost his job to Rico Dowdle in 2025. With Dowdle bolting for Pittsburgh, Hubbard has a chance to reclaim his top spot. Unfortunately, there is a youngster in the offense […]

We have reached the halfway point of the fantasy baseball season. At this point, most dynasty managers are well aware of whether they will be "contending" or focusing on the future. Whether that is due to several injuries or simply to many of their players underperforming, it is crucial to know when to begin building […]

During the opening months of the campaign, managers have seen many prospects live up to their draft capital in the majors.

Every MLB team has now played at least 90 games, meaning the season is nearly 60% complete. As with every season, there are underperforming hitters compared to where they were taken in drafts coming into the year. While it's always frustrating for a poor first half from one of your premium picks, that doesn't mean […]

Ewing were called up more recently […]
