Outfielders Who’ll Continue to Improve in 2018

While the other managers in your league are drafting redundant assets and fretting over which volatile closer they’re going to draft, you’ll be targeting up-and-coming outfielders with skyrocketing value. Winning the late rounds on draft day is the most you can do to put yourself in the best position to win a fantasy title. All […]


Platoon Role For Hunter Renfroe Possible

San Diego Padres outfielder Hunter Renfroe will likely assume a platoon role in 2018. Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports on the ongoing battle in San Diego's outfield, pointing out Renfroe's struggles with righties (.636 OPS) and success against lefties (1.077 OPS). Manager Andy Green admitted injuries and lack of depth last season forced […]


Eloy Jimenez Does Hitting Drills On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (knee) spent Wednesday doing hitting drills, and is expected to be at "full activity” on Thursday. One of the best prospects in the game, Jimenez sat out Tuesday with soreness in his left knee. The White Sox are playing it safe, as it appears Jimenez should be good to […]


Ronald Acuna Drives In Two Runs In Loss

There's one thing to remember about Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna: He's young. Really young. He's only 20 and he's not even turning 21 until December. He still wants to make the team, though the front office might decide he needs some more seasoning in the minors. Acuna made a case for himself Wednesday, driving […]


Daniel Nava Out 10-12 Weeks After Surgery

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Daniel Nava (back) underwent back surgery on Tuesday and will be out 10 to 12 weeks, according to head trainer Todd Tomczyk. It's a tough blow for the 35-year-old Nava, as he was hoping to make the team out of camp as a platoon partner in left field. That was looking less […]


Bryce Harper Scratched With Ingrown Toenail

Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper was scratched from his Wednesday start with an ingrown toenail. Victor Robles will start in right field in his place. This is the second foot-related incident with the Nationals in the last week (Matt Adams has a foot blister), so maybe the Mets have transferred their injury voodoo onto their division […]


Craig Gentry Being Held Out Until Tuesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Craig Gentry is going to be held out until after the team's off day on Monday as a precaution with his hamstring. It's a smart move for the team even though Gentry has said that he's feeling much better. Even though he's a fourth outfielder, losing him for an extended time would […]


Kris Bryant Remains Out With Illness

Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant (illness) remains out of the team’s lineup on Wednesday. Bryant has been absent all week while he is sick, but it should be nothing for fantasy owners to worry about. He remains one of the best hitters in the game and should see his run production improve in 2018.


Austin Hays Gets MRI Results; Won't Play Outfield For Several Days

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays got good news about his sore lat muscle on Wednesday. An MRI showed that he had inflammation in the area and he just needed rest. Hays won't play the outfield or throw for at least three days. It's a minor setback for him as he hopes to head north with […]


George Springer Rankings Debate - Comparing RotoBaller's Rankers

We continue our long-running series of articles debating fantasy rankings with a player that is sure to be one of the first few outfielders off the board in all formats. Or is he? RotoBaller's expert writers have come up with our consensus rankings for mixed leagues, but that doesn't mean we agreed on everything. In this space, […]


Tommy Joseph Shifting To Outfield

After spending last season as the starting first baseman of the Philadelphia Phillies, Tommy Joseph finds himself fighting for a spot in 2018. The 26-year-old hit .240 with 22 home runs and 69 RBI in 142 games last season, but will give way to newly-signed Carlos Santana this upcoming season. As a result, the Phillies […]


Jason Kipnis Off to a Great Start This Spring

Cleveland Indians second baseman/outfielder Jason Kipnis is off to a great start in Cactus League play this year. He hit two home runs on Tuesday, recording four RBI in a win over the Oakland Athletics. It's still February, so Kipnis' fast start may ultimately mean nothing, but his hot start is nice to see after […]


Ian Happ Hits Second Home Run

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ian Happ hit his second leadoff homer of the spring versus the White Sox on Tuesday. The Cubs have floated names around for the leadoff spot in the order, but Happ has made a strong impression. The rookie forced his way up to the big leagues last year and hasn’t looked back. Happ […]


Austin Hays and Chris Lee Both Due To Have MRIs On Wednesday Morning

Both Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (lat) and pitcher Chris Lee (lat) are going to have MRIs on Wednesday morning, according to MASN reporter Roch Kubatko. Hays and Lee both have been dealing with lat issues, and perhaps the MRIs will dictate what happens next. Disabled list stints to open the season may be looming.


J.D. Martinez Will Debut Next Week

According to Jason Mastrodonato of the Boston Herald, Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez is acclimating quickly and is expected to debut next week. “His routine got messed up the last four or five days and it was the first day he hit in four or five days, so we want him to get back […]


Cory Spangenberg Injures Wrist During Workout

AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports San Diego Padres infielder Cory Spangenberg jammed his wrist and will be out a "short period of time." Spangenberg was expected to compete with second baseman Carlos Asuaje for playing time at second base. His absence will open more opportunities for Jose Pirela, who will see action at second due to the […]


Craig Gentry Only Expects To Miss A Few More Days

According to Roch Kubatko of MASN, Baltimore Orioles outfielder Craig Gentry (hamstring) will only be out a few more days before resuming baseball activities. He said that his hamstring is much better. Gentry is hoping to make the team as a reserve outfielder and will only play a lot if a regular gets hurt and misses […]


Ben Revere In The Mix For A Bench Spot

Cincinnati Reds manager Bryan Price told reporters that recently-signed veteran outfielder Ben Revere is in the running for a spot with the club, but it will not be as a starter. Revere is in the mix for a reserve outfielder position, with Price stating, "Ben will compete to offer a component we may lack – […]


Austin Hays Will DH In Tuesday's Game

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (arm, lat), who was originally slated to play right field on Tuesday, will be the designated hitter. The purpose is for him to rest his sore arm/lat muscle for one more day. He should resume regular game duties on Wednesday.


Ben Zobrist Could Get Game Action This Week

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist (back) could see some game action this week. Zobrist missed the beginning of spring training with back soreness, but in recent days has been on the field and even took some swings in the batting cage. The Cubs are taking it easy with the veteran, and he should be good […]


Yoenis Cespedes Should Return Friday

Updating a previous item, New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes (shoulder) told the media he should return to the lineup on Friday. Cespedes is dealing with a minor bout of shoulder soreness, but as you can see, it’s not expected to keep him out very long. Unless we hear more about this injury or the lingering […]


Jay Bruce To Make Spring Debut On Tuesday

With some mild injuries creeping up for some members of the New York Mets, there’s a silver lining in that at least one of them is getting better. Outfielder Jay Bruce (foot) will make his spring training debut on Tuesday, serving as the designated hitter, when the Mets take on the Astros. Bruce has been out […]


Shoulder Soreness For Yoenis Cespedes

The New York Mets injuries continue, as outfielder Yoenis Cespedes is suffering from a mild bout of shoulder soreness. The key word here is “mild,” but when it comes to the Mets, you just never know. Since being acquired by the Mets in July 2015, Cespedes has always been, and still is, the key to […]


Adam Duvall (OF, CIN) - 2018 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers & Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target ~120 CURRENT ADP: 165 ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Reds outfielder Adam Duvall has emerged as one of the National League's better power hitters over the past two seasons. Duvall exploded on the scene with 33 homers in 2016 and followed that up with another 31 round-trippers this past year. The 29-year-old outfielder finished his 2017 campaign […]


ADP Myth Busters - Debunking Myths in the NL West

This series will attempt to help fantasy baseball owners make informed opinions on players whose ADP may not be in line with their value for the 2018 season. As fantasy owners, we can fall into a "group think" mentality and start to overlook certain teams and players. If we aren't careful, those ideas can turn […]


Top 500: Mixed Leagues Tiered Staff Rankings (February)

Spring training is officially here! To celebrate, today we are here to look at our staff's updated 2018 fantasy baseball mixed league rankings for February and the top 500 players. Our rankings are updated weekly, but enough changes have taken place recently (see humidor, Arizona) to release a new overall list. Over the next few weeks we will also be publishing individual tiered […]


Aaron Judge Set For Spring Debut

After undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his left shoulder this offseason, New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was not ready for spring training when it began. However, the Rookie of the Year has been cleared to play and will start in right field against the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday. Judge has been taking live batting practice the […]


Clint Frazier Suffers Concussion

Although not noticed when it initially happened, New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier suffered a concussion on Saturday afternoon, banging his head against a wall in the outfield. The 23-year-old stated he was suffering from just a “slight headache” Monday and is expected to get back on the stationary bike and swing off a tee Tuesday. […]


Franchy Cordero Hits Second Homer Of Spring Training

San Diego Padres outfielder Franchy Cordero hit an inside-the-park home run on Monday. The Padres 12th-ranked prospect showed his coveted pop and speed combination by hitting one off the fence and racing around the bases to easily score. Cordero also homered on Saturday and has started spring training 3-for-8. The reigning Dominican Winter League MVP […]


Steven Souza Jr. Committed To Goals

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Steven Souza Jr. is committed to certain goals in his first season with the team, according to Jody Jackson of Fox Sports Arizona. Continuing a method he first used in 2017, Souza will write down his goals that he hopes to achieve this season and stash them to review once the season […]
