Week 20 fantasy baseball FAAB check-in
Pitching ratios are growing by the day and the length of pitchers’ outings is shrinking, creating a weak supply of wins. Teams are starving for the win and will stream and start nothing but starting pitchers. The save category becomes less desirable to some as many teams realize they can’t gain much more in saves […]

The Double Dip: Fantasy baseball 2-start pitchers for the week
We’re back again for this week’s fantasy baseball Double Dip — highlighting pitchers making two starts in a week. Some of the plays may be obvious — you don’t need a 1,000-word soliloquy highlighting why it’s a good idea to start Jacob deGrom twice. You just do it.  But volume is key, especially two-start-pitcher volume. […]

Week 18 fantasy baseball FAAB check-in
With the trade deadline approaching next weekend, this would be the week to try to make cheap speculative bids on players that could have a positive role change once the deadline is over.

Week 17 fantasy baseball FAAB check-in
The second half of the fantasy baseball season is underway, and we’re being served another top prospect. Last week, it was Vidal Bruján; this week, we have Jarren Duran.

We are rolling into Week 15 in the FAAB process for fantasy baseball. You’ll notice that the math regarding remaining budgets has to start forcing managers to bid less than we have witnessed during the first half of FAAB. Sure, there will always be outliers due to a leaguemate or two that has been hoarding […]

Week 12 fantasy baseball FAAB check-in
We’re now in Week 12 out of the 26 weeks for FAAB in fantasy baseball. FAAB budgets on average are lower than we’re accustomed to in previous full seasons.

Week 11 fantasy baseball FAAB check-in
Two months down with a little less than four to go. Remember, fantasy baseball is a sprint, not a marathon. Even if you’re down a bit in your league standings, it’s best to stay strict with your FAAB process. Making moves just to make them isn’t a useful tool. Trimming away average/fringe players that are […]
