Some players have traditionally played certain spots in the outfield and have changed positions recently. For outfielders, we will look at what position

If you read only one thing….. Welcome to the Fantasy Baseball Nightly recap. On Friday, the stars came out to play. One of my favorite lines from literature sums up the night. On a long enough timeline, the survival rate drops to zero. Similarly, if you wait around long enough
