2017 Fantasy Baseball: Three To Add, Three to Keep, Three to Drop– Second Basemen
As we approach the non-waiver trade deadline we are getting to that point where fantasy players are evaluating their rosters and looking for players to move and get. The stretch drive in fantasy is actually a lot shorter than the real game. The playoffs begin at the beginning of September
2017 Fantasy Baseball: 3 to Add, 3 to Keep, 3 to Drop– Second Base Edition
Admittedly, I took some flack last week for going with the obvious choices at first base. This feature creates an interesting conundrum. We can outthink ourselves by going for the under the radar choice when the obvious choice is well…obvious. On the other hand, if that player is owned in
2017 Fantasy Baseball: The Fielding Chronicles– Los Angeles Angels
Fantasy baseball and real baseball often don’t intersect. One of the areas where they don’t intersect is in the area of fielding. The Angels made a deal in the winter of 2015 that shifted their fortunes a ton on the field. Occasionally, a transcendent fielder comes along that changes the
2017 Fantasy Baseball, Los Angeles Angels Team Preview
Offseason Overview The Angels are the new White Sox. They’ve changed management off the field, but they’ve kept the same philosophy in general. The idea is that they are always one or two players away from being competitive. That certainly makes sense with Mike Trout and Albert Pujols in tow,
2017 Fantasy Baseball: AL West Lineup Grades

2016 Fantasy Baseball: Daniel Murphy to sign with the Nationals

2015 Fantasy Baseball: Deep League Digging, Week 11
View image | gettyimages.com Last week, I touched on all the important injuries across fantasy baseball, but today I’ll shift my focus to my other role here at The Fantasy Fix — and that’s scouring the waiver wire for players that can help you in the deepest of leagues. We’re getting

We took a look at the young second basemen in the last edition of dumpster diving, so today we will take a look at the veteran version. Of course, veteran is often in the eye of the beholder. In this case, veteran will be defined as someone that has more
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Week Three Free Agent Fixes
This week’s Free Agent Fixes features a couple of young fireball throwing relievers from Chicago. They’re joined by a 30-year old starting pitcher that has a history of control problems that, quite frankly, I can’t believe I’m writing good things about. On the hitter side of the ledger, a middle
