2016 Fantasy Baseball: Late-Round Outfield Sleepers
Most of these players are only going to be appealing in deep, five-outfielder leagues or AL/NL-Only leagues. But there’s definitely some late-round value to be had at outfield, so I wanted to give you some of my favorite deep picks. If you have any questions or comments find me on
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Breakout Candidate — Joe Panik
Sometimes teams don’t give you a lot of options when it comes to breakout candidates. The Giants are one of those teams. This isn’t to say that the Giants are a bad team. Obviously, you don’t win three World Series titles in the decade when you are a bad team.
2016 Fantasy Baseball: 12-Team Snake Draft Flow Chart
Back by popular demand (and by popular demand I mean one guy asking about it on Twitter), it’s the snake draft flow chart! It’s a little late this year because I’ve been more interested in NHL DFS lately, but there’s a short NHL slate not worth playing today, so I
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Breakout Candidate — Wil Myers
The blogosphere owes Dayton Moore a huge apology. Sure, all of the generic snark kind of looks foolish in the face of two straight pennants and one World Series title. However, more specifically, if we believe the pundits out there (myself included), the Wil Myers trade was the dumbest trade
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Breakout Candidate — Gregory Polanco
Like the Athletics, the Pirates are an organization that must rely on smarts in place of money for them to compete. They are in a slightly better position than Oakland because they have enough money to tie up some of their young stars. Andrew McCutchen signed such a deal a
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Breakout Candidate — Maikel Franco
In some ways, we are all sad to see Ruben Amaro Jr. out of Philadelphia. When he was released as general manager, he left a trail of snark behind him long enough to go from Philadelphia to Boston (where he landed as a base coach for the Red Sox). He
Outfielders: Like Him Less, Like Him More
The outfield is deep, and for that reason, it isn’t combined with another position in the Like Him Less, Like Him More series. At shortstop, I chose not to discuss the rankings disparity for Manny Machado as it appeared the result of some rankers not ranking him at that position.
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Breakout Candidate — Danny Valencia
Organizations in baseball get certain reputations for doing things well. Some organizations get known their ability to develop hitters while others get known for their ability to develop pitchers. The richer franchises get known for buying their talent. The flip side are those teams that belong to those on the
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Preseason Outfield Tiered Rankings
The following rankings are a tiered approach, which I like using for my drafts. Outside of a handful of players I enjoy watching play this marvelous game, I don’t mind if I land Player X or Player Y – just as long as they produce for me. Using tiers helps
2016 Fantasy Baseball: Breakout Candidate– Michael Conforto
The great thing about sports is their unpredictability. We can crunch numbers and utilize more and more advanced analytics, but that only tells us why someone succeeds as often as they do and how often they will succeed. It won’t tell us exactly when they will succeed or the relative
