Saves are an important component for many fantasy baseball leagues. Closers are one of the most volatile positions in fantasy baseball and one of the highest turnover positions in MLB.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua has been at the center of many of the league's recent scandals.

With the season quickly entering the final stretch, managers are running out of time to improve their roster. This week, we will look at several players who recently hit the injured list to determine whether they are worthy candidates to […]

Zero RB is a draft strategy where you wait until after the sixth round to select your first running back. The goal here is to load up your wide receiver room, along with adding an elite quarterback and/or tight end before taking the most volatile position in fantasy football, running back. From there, you can […]

This is the final entry into this three-part series. You can read the first entry here and the second entry here. One thing you'll notice if you've read them both is that we're continuing to move down the receiver rankings in terms of ADP. By doing so, your chances of finding a "league-winner" decrease. That's […]

Every fantasy football prospect comes with some degree of risk. It could be a significant injury history, a low-scoring offense, or workload uncertainty.

For 2026 fantasy football drafts, I am putting a higher emphasis on running backs again. In my latest overall fantasy football player rankings on RotoBaller, 11 of my top 17 players are RBs. The best RBs may be taken by the middle of the second round in some drafts, so I prefer to get at […]

Sure, I like playing fantasy football, but my real favorite pastime is saying that I was right all along. Fantasy preseason is rife with chances to do exactly that, provided you’re willing to take a few calculated risks. During preseason last year, I was particularly high on later-round gems like Harold Fannin Jr. (PPR TE6), […]

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua took another major step forward during the 2025 season. Even though the Rams added Davante Adams to their receiver room, Nacua still produced at an elite level, offering a major weapon for fantasy managers looking to win a league championship. Unfortunately, Nacua left practice early on Tuesday. He […]

Hey RotoBallers! The kicker position is often the most frustrating position in fantasy.

In this piece, we […]

It's been a really exciting last two weeks for prospect promotions, starting with Max Clark debuting on the last day of July. Since then, we've also seen George Lombard Jr., Kaelen Culpepper, Angel Genao, and Hagen Smith debut, among others. I don't believe this wave is done, either, as the threshold for teams to call […]

Even though it's always nice to have a bell-cow running back who dominates touches, you don't want to miss out on alpha wide receivers, either. These are pass-catchers who can dominate target share, giving you an ideal combination of weekly floor and ceiling. In this column, I'll choose six alpha wide receivers to target for […]
