Small Ball: Fantasy Baseball Game Theory (Week 19)
August is a great month. One of my favorites actually. The MLB trade deadline just passed. How crazy was that? NFL training camp is officially underway. I traveled to Lambeau Field for the Green Bay Packers Annual Meeting of Shareholders last week. I took in a few training camp practices and got an up-close-and-personal view […]

Crossed Up: Prospects on the Move at the Deadline
Another year, another exciting MLB trade deadline. While there weren’t any major 11th-hour deals swung that knocked our socks off, there were still plenty of notable trades made on deadline day or in the few days leading up to it. The Mets and White Sox, two massively underperforming teams, were both sellers, while teams like […]

Crossed Up: Pitching Prospects on the Rise (July)
Another month has come and gone, and with it another set of fantasy baseball prospect rankings. The mid-July post-draft prospect rankings update is always my favorite one of the year as we have a brand new batch of names to add to the list.  But the 2023 draftees are far from the only exciting names […]

SUNDAY UPDATE   Nick Pivetta pitched a clean inning in relief on Saturday as it doesn’t look like he’s getting the bulk work in the Sunday Night matchup. It’s possible Pivetta will pitch in bulk relief against Atlanta on Tuesday.  Sal Frelick was called up right after this article was published. He’s clearly one of […]

Small Ball: Fantasy Baseball Game Theory (Week 17)
In a world where nothing is what it seems, there’s no one less surprised than me. Morgan Wallen, anyone? I just quoted one of his songs. Well, almost. I changed one word. The song is “More Surprised Than Me.”   I was listening to it on one of my afternoon walks around Lake Takanassee in beautiful Long […]

Crossed Up: Hitting Prospects to Target in Rookie Leagues
One crucial and vital part of any dynasty league is the churn and burn at the back-end of your roster. This rings true regardless of roster size but takes on added importance the deeper the league is. Especially this time of year when we have rookie leagues in full swing and new prospects breaking onto […]

Small Ball: Fantasy Baseball Game Theory (Week 15)
“TRADEEEEEE.” That’s the exact text I got from the commissioner of my home fantasy baseball league back in 2015 when the season really started to heat up.    Our league had been together for five years – and I’ll be honest, it was a bit of a cesspool those first five years. But things were […]
