2015 Fantasy Baseball: Trade Deadline Profile — Milwaukee Brewers
Now that the all-star game is behind us, the sport changes its focus immediately on the non-waiver trade deadline on July 31st. I could choose to focus on individual players or positions, but I’m choosing to look at likely sellers. For the fantasy baseball player, trades can make a significant
2015 Fantasy Baseball: Where are they now? — Centerfielders
Center field is the premier position in the game, but for fantasy baseball players, we’ve noticed that right field is a little more advanced in terms of offensive production. That being said there are few disappointments on the center field side. Mike Trout and Andrew McCutchen are the cream of
2015 Fantasy Baseball: Mid-Season Deep League All-Stars, Part 2
I’ve already covered my deep league All-Stars at the infield positions, so today I’ll be taking a look at which outfielders and pitchers I deem worthy of setting foot in my clubhouse. Remember, all these players are guys who were drafted in 14-team leagues or more. This means they were
2015 Fantasy Baseball: Where are they now? — Left Fielders
As we move to the outfield portion of our “Where are they now?” series, we find a position where most of the disappointments have done so for the most basic of reasons: they’ve been hurt. In many ways, this makes the analysis a lot easier. All you have to do
2015 Fantasy Baseball: Mid-Season Deep League All-Stars, Part 1
The (unofficial) midway point in the season is here. Some of baseball’s best players will spend the next few days galavanting around Cincinnati hobnobbing with southern Ohio’s finest and stuffing their faces with chili. Fantasy owners get a little respite as well, so now is the perfect time to assess
2015 Fantasy Baseball: Where are they now? — Shortstops
The game’s halfway point is really a misnomer. Some teams will approach 90 games played by the end of the first half. Plus, the fantasy season really isn’t a 162 game affair. In some leagues, the fantasy playoffs take the full month of September. So we’re looking at a little less
2015 Fantasy Baseball Week 15 Waiver Wire: 3 to Catch, 3 to Cut, 3 to Keep
In the Week 15 edition of fantasy baseball 3×3, we’re grabbing Jarrod Dyson, dumping Melky Cabrera, and clutching Carson Smith tight. There are plenty of waiver wire columns out there that provide an exhaustive list of the most added players in fantasy leagues. This isn’t one of them. Here, we’ll
Fantasy Baseball Final: July 12, 2015
IF YOU READ ONLY ONE THING… On the last day before the All-Star break, Jake Arrieta, who many think should have been named to the National League All-Star team, came out of Sunday shining after the Cubs beat their cross-town rivals 3-1. Arrieta only surrendered one run over nine dominant
Fantasy Baseball Final: July 11th, 2015
If you read only one thing….. Jerry Dipoto officially resigned as the Angels general manager on July 1st. Of course that whole saga has numerous angles, but the most important might be the team’s play in the wake of his resignation. The Angels lost to the Yankees 3-1 on that
Fantasy Baseball Final: July 10th, 2015
If you read only one thing….. As we approach the all-star break, the fantasy world and real word shift their attention to the July 31st non-waiver trade deadline. I remember when I was a kid, there was only one deadline. It came on August 31st. That deadline was only for
2015 Fantasy Baseball: Where are they now? — Third Basemen
As we approach the all-star break, it is high time to look back at the disappointing players from the season’s first half. This time we are looking at third base. Like the other positions, there have been a number of injured players and under-performing players at the position. Our task
2015 Fantasy Baseball: All-Star Break Injury Report
Cincinnati will host the 86th Midsummer Classic next Tuesday in what should be an exciting affair. Unfortunately, stats accrued during the game won’t be reflected in your fantasy baseball lineups, so the break is a great time to plan for the second half. While others are enjoying the time off from
