When Will Mason Miller Return From The Injured List? Fantasy Baseball Injury Update

We have a busy 11 game Monday, but one is a matinee game and another had the audacity to start an hour earlier than everyone else. That makes the main FanDuel slate a nine-gamer. There is a lot to wrap our heads around on this slate, including the massive price increase on a few pitchers. […]

Starter Prospects that Could be Impact Relievers in 2021
In many ways, Major League Baseball is getting back to normal in 2021.

2020 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers - Khris Davis
The Oakland Athletics finished 2019 with a record of 97-65, which was good for a second-place finish in the AL West and a second-consecutive wildcard birth.

Oakland Trades for Reliever Jake Diekman
Less a splash and more of a sneaky splish, the Oakland A's waded into the trade waters on Saturday, sending minor-leaguers Ismael Aquino and Dairon Blanco to the Royals in exchange for left-handed reliever, Jake Diekman. In Diekman, the Athletics make a classic Oakland move, shoring up their bullpen with the eight-year veteran and his […]

Catching Heat - What To Do With Fantasy Catchers
To be blunt, catchers in fantasy baseball have been a huge disappointment this year.
