A Look Back at the 2013 Draft: AL Second Basemen
There is no dirtier word in sports than potential. Paul Bear Bryant once said that “potential means they ain’t done nothing yet.” That may well be true, but a fantasy baseball player ignores potential at their own peril. Admittedly, a part of potential means looking back beyond the last season,

Welcome to another stirring rendition of the daily fix. Today, I will be playing the MLB $1K Moon Shot ($1000 Guaranteed). I hope to add to my solid winnings over the last couple of weeks. If you want to get in on the action you can go to DraftKings and
A Look Back at the 2013 Draft: NL First Basemen

There are always little pecularities when you break down fantasy baseball into individual leagues. One of those is that each league has positions that are strong and positions that are weak. In the case of catching, we notice that the National League is considerably stronger than the American League. Of
A Look Back at the 2013 Draft: AL Catchers
Everyone’s draft has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean the analysis needs to end. In fact, looking back on the drafts this year can give us insight into what the various players in our league were thinking and are thinking about certain players and types of players. I will

“Here come the Astros burning with desire, here come the Astros, they’re breathing orange fire.” The Astros may be breathing orange fire again, but they sure as hell aren’t making a lot of contact these days. In three games, they have struck out 13 times, 15 times, and 15 times
