I thought I might be done for the year writing about starting pitchers and analyzing recent pitching performances. But perhaps I am a sucker for a good comeback story, and there happen to be three pitchers who have debuted recently after missing large chunks of time (some full seasons) after having major arm surgeries. Patrick […]

The NASCAR Cup Series continues the trend of flat tracks this weekend, as the Iowa Corn 350 is set to take place on Sunday afternoon from Iowa Speedway. This is a 0.875-mile oval that is flat but kind of races like a speedway. However, the drivers that are good at short, flat tracks should be... […]

We're in the final stretch of the regular season, as the NASCAR Cup Series has four races left until the start of this year's Chase. First up in the final four races of the regular season is the Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa Speedway this weekend. Iowa is a relatively new track to the Cup... […]

On Saturday afternoon, the NASCAR Cup Series held the qualifying session for this weekend's race at Iowa Speedway, the Iowa Corn 350. It ended up being quite the qualifying session, as we had some surprising drivers end up toward the front of the speed chart, and also some big-name drivers end up slow and in […]

The NASCAR Cup Series ran a single practice session at Iowa Speedway on Saturday afternoon in preparation for the upcoming Iowa Corn 350 on Sunday afternoon. The 36-car field had a full 50-minute session with all cars on track at the same time. If you're wondering why this a combined 50-minute session when that new […]

Last season, five receivers topped 160 targets, including Ja'Marr Chase (185), Amon-Ra St. Brown (172), Trey McBride (169), Puka Nacua (166), and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (163), forming one of the most exclusive clubs. Assuming Malik Nabers was healthy in his 2024 season, which featured 170 targets, it would've gained him access to this club. So, which […]

The narrative around drafts this season has been against drafting with the ZeroRB strategy. Some drafters might be fading the ZeroRB approach because running backs were profitable in the early rounds over the past two seasons. When looking at running back win rates last season, many of the running backs from the first three rounds […]

In years past, wide receiver was the lifeblood of building your fantasy football roster in the early rounds of drafts.

Now, the shift in the league is […]

One trend that goes unnoticed when projecting wide receiver rankings is that when a quarterback starts tucking the ball and running more often, the ceiling for his top wideout takes a noticeable hit. It makes intuitive sense—more designed runs and scrambles mean fewer drop-backs, fewer pass attempts, and ultimately fewer opportunities for that WR1 to […]

Each year, we are subjected to multiple training camp battles around the NFL. These battles often center around quarterbacks, but battles at other positions can be just as impactful. For example, whoever starts along the offensive line can make or break a team's season. Too often, NFL teams are forced to roll out a plethora […]

Managers who are aggressive on the waiver wire and target relief pitchers before they emerge as the true ninth-inning option will not only save FAAB, but also add a potential lottery ticket to their roster.
