2014 Fantasy Baseball: The Farm Report, August 12
Well, Trevor May and Javier Baez have left us. Most like, they’ve left us for good. Baez did so with a bang, treating Coors Field like the launching bad it is. Sure, he swings and misses a ton, but when he makes contact angels sing. May’s debut did not go
2014 Fantasy Baseball: The Farm Report, May 6
Minor league action is heating up. Since our last update, Marcus Stroman was called up. It appears he’ll work out of the bullpen immediately, but given the fact that he’s already stretched -and that Dustin McGown isn’t very good – out he should make his way into the rotation sooner
2014 Fantasy Baseball: The Farm Report, April 22nd
It didn’t take long for George Springer to graduate on to the rookie report. Houston’s consensus top three prospect was called up essentially as soon as the Astros had guaranteed themselves another year of control over him. In a nutshell, it’s good for all sides. Springer gets to play in
2014 Fantasy Baseball: The Farm Report
Last week we reintroduced our rookie report. This week we’re running our first installment of our farm report. We’re tracking prospects that are the most likely to make an impact this year. There are a ton of prospects worth following, but most people only play in year-to-year leagues, so following
Cusp Dwellers: Houston Astros in the PCL
We have all read enough about George Springer to satiate our “who’s the next Mike Trout?” fix for the time being. And while Springer might indeed get thrown to the wolves in short order, the two Astros farmhands acquired in the Hunter Pence trade with Philadelphia back in 2011 deserve
MiLB Check-in: Cubs Long-Term Sticks

Cusp Dwellers: River Cats Awaiting Promotion to Oakland
Grant Green, 2B – Green has been tabbed in prospect rankings and subsequently monitored in the dynasty universe since being drafted 13th overall back in 2009. We’re still waiting. A prodigious collegiate career at USC, two ‘Futures’ invites (MVP in 2011) and consistent MiLB production still has not resulted in
Cusp Dwellers: MiLB Starting Pitchers to Monitor
Edwar Cabrera, LHP Colorado | Placed on the 60-day disabled list in mid-February with shoulder impingement, Cabrera is now targeting an early June return to action (missed his original eligibility date). The 25-year old had a legit opportunity to earn a rotation spot out of spring training prior to the
Total Recall: Analysis of Recent Promotions | Starring Carlos Martinez
The high-ceiling potential attached to the arm of Carlos Martinez has been no secret since he signed with St. Louis back in 2010. Three years and 260 MiLB innings later, a once raw 18-year old has made quick progress in the critical areas of mental maturity (strike throwing), mound intelligence
