The right-handed swinging slugger is putting his name on the stash radar for fantasy managers with a .275 batting average and 62 […]

San Francisco Giants rookie first baseman Bryce Eldridge has some of the most power upside of any young left-handed hitter in the game.

In 68 games and 266 plate appearances […]

So let's bring you another […]

New York Yankees first baseman Paul Goldschmidt certainly hasn't looked like an aging slugger in the Bronx in 2026. Goldschmidt had an impressive showing in Wednesday night's 4-2 win over the hosting Detroit Tigers, going 2-for-4 at the plate with two solo home runs off two-time Cy Young left-hander Tarik Skubal.
