Dynasty Review: Deep Fantasy League Advice for Week 12

It's the buying low edition. This week, I'll cover a couple good players who were recently optioned.

Cubs catcher Willson Contreras […]

Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: Second Base

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Wright, Lackey and McCutchen

Last week's column was kind of a downer, harping as I did about my least favorite MLB player. This week I figured I should do the opposite and profile three of my favorite players. I'm a sucker for a good knuckleballer (or even a bad one), so Steven Wright continues the trend of a Red […]

Beleaguered Dallas Keuchel May Be Onto Something, To Improve

Can He Return To Form? I won't say Dallas Keuchel is out of the woods just yet. I think it might be a bit of a hyperbolic characterization of his recent success. Even the word "success" is a bit hyperbolic here, but take note: in Keuchel's last five starts, he has struck out 34 hitters […]

For the longest time, if you could find a shortstop who could hit, you found a rare commodity.
