2014 Fantasy Baseball: Regarding Danny Salazar
Danny Salazar is a name you likely heard last year. He took the league by storm – as much by storm as you can playing in Cleveland, anyways. His stuff is huge as is his upside. You may have read about him here or here ($). If you haven’t had
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Regarding Hunter Pence’s Scalding September
We all – to some degree – suffer from recency bias. It’s natural. Whenever you’re drafting in a few months you’ll likely remember Michael Wacha’s postseason performance and maybe rank him a little higher. You’ll remember that Pablo Sandoval was awesome in September and perhaps give him another chance despite
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Who Is Dillon Gee?
The other day I began looking at a few guys who put together complete Jekyll and Hyde performances during the 2013 season. Dillon Gee was one of the names on the list. After pitching pretty poorly for most of the season, Gee was absolutely lights out down the stretch. The
2014 Fantasy Baseball: The Grandy Man Can, Right?
Curtis Granderson found a new home today when he signed with the Mets for 4 years. There’s no mistaking how valuable “The Grandy Man” has been for fantasy owners since he landed in the Bronx in 2010. He smashed 84 homers combined in 2011 & 2012. Last year, 2013, however,
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Early Top 20 SP Part I
Ranking the starting pitchers for 2014 was by far the hardest list I had to make. On a few of the lists – SS in particular – I had to talk myself into including someone that I might not be exuding confidence about. Starting pitching was an entirely different animal. I had
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Too Early Top 20 OF For 2014, Part II
I went over my top ten in my previous piece. To catch you up, if you were unable to read it or found this one first, my top 10 is as follows: Trout, McCutchen, Gonzalez, A. Jones, Ellsbury, Gomez, Harper, Stanton, Braun, & Bautista. I did my best to explain
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Early Top 20 OF For 2014 Part I
When I began working on my outfield rankings, I decided, mainly due to boredom and my general sadness that there is no baseball at the moment, to do a top 20 instead of a top 10. I’ll be breaking them down into two posts, so this will post will only
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Early Top 10 SS For 2014
Shortstop is, to put it lightly, extremely lacking heading into 2014 – at least from a fantasy standpoint. Nearly everyone in my top 10 has legitimate question marks regarding either their production or health. The first three have injury concerns. There rest of the top 10 is littered with young
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Early Top 10 3B For 2014
We’re making our way around the diamond, slowly but surely, for our too early 2014 fantasy rankings. So far, we’ve taken a look at catcher, first basemen, and second basemen. Third base should be a pretty intriguing position in 2014. The following list will only include my top 10, but
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Prince Fielder and Ian Kinsler Trade Places
The Texas Rangers and Detroit Tigers rocked MLB tonight with a trade that sent Prince Fielder to Texas and Ian Kinsler to Detroit. The fantasy baseball impacts of this deal are many – and almost all positive. A home run hitter moves to a home run hitter’s park, and his former team gets a perfect-fitting puzzle piece.
