A majority of the fantasy coverage on the main sites (ESPN, Baseball Prospectus, FanGraphs) centers around players that are relevant in mixed leagues. When an injury occurs, a players replacement is deemed mixed league worthy, or not. However, guys who get around 350 plate appearances each year, platoon players, are

The 2013 Major League Baseball Amateur Draft is in full-swing, so in honor of all the scouts out there, I’d like to take a quick look at some of the scouting reports made available to us by the fine folks at Diamond Mines.

Welcome to the Fix’s week 10 fantasy baseball mailbag. We’re going to skip the fluffy introduction and fast forward to the meat-and-potatoes: @thefantasyfix better ROS: Zack Wheeler, Michael Wacha, Kevin Gausmann? Thanks. — Eric Bertram (@EricDBertram) June 6, 2013   Let’s see what the Fix staff has to say about

DraftKings Team of the Day Today I’m playing the $1 Double Up contest. Be sure to claim your deposit bonus when you sign up at DraftKings. Player  Matchup Salary Note SP – Hiroki Kuroda at Seattle – The Mariners offense is actually better than what I thought it’d be, but

Tampa Bay Rays fans are impatiently awaiting the arrival of their team’s top prospect Wil Myers’ to the big club.  The Rays acquired Myers from the Royals in a trade last December, a trade that sent James Shields and Wade Davis to Kansas City.  Big game James was a fan

Just before the 2013 season kicked off, the Detroit Tigers made a very large investment in Justin Verlander.  And if you happened to acquire the Tigers’ ace for your fantasy team, then it’s safe to assume that you also made a very large investment.  Through May 6th, it seemed like

Albert Pujols has been absolutely abysmal thus far in 2013. His current triple slash sits at .243/.311/.420. Many fantasy owners are wondering whether their first round pick investment will pan out, but unfortunately I believe Pujols will finish outside the top five amongst first baseman.

Yesterday went a little better than the past several contests had gone, but anyone could say that after the two weeks I’ve had. Baseball has been rocked by some bigger news, but we’ll touch on that later. There is nothing like a little action to make you forget your troubles.

Michael Wacha, St. Louis’s first round pick in the 2012 Draft, pitched very well in his Major League debut last week against the Royals. In mowing down an anemic Kansas City lineup, Wacha pitched seven shutout innings, allowing just two hits and no walks. He struck out six batters, four

Bud Norris has the 41st best ERA (3.39) among qualified pitchers this season. He has the 69th best WHIP (1.48). These things, as the cool kids say, do not compute. Making matters a bit murkier for Norris is an astoundingly small K% (14.9%) and K/9 rate (5.74). These are wretchedly

It’s been a down time for your’s truly on the Daily Fix. Those that follow me on twitter (@sbarzilla) know I’ve had weather issues several times during my prescribed days to play. In the last one, a Brandon McCarthy start was rained out. Judging by his performance the next day,
