Trust the Gut: Fantasy Baseball FAAB Guide Week 19
SUNDAY UPDATE A few starting pitchers to add to the 15-team mix: Huascar Ynoa, Atlanta Braves There is going to be some action on Ynoa but I’m hardly bullish. It will still take an injury to one of their five starters for Ynoa to slide into the rotation. Ian Anderson (who has been awfully inconsistent) […]
