Trust the Gut: Fantasy Baseball FAAB Guide (Week 27)
SUNDAY UPDATE How sad, my last FAAB update of the season. I’m sure you are stressing over priority bid orders like me right now. First thing I’d recommend is to take Alec Marsh and Martín Pérez out of your bid groups. It looked like they might pitch twice next week but both pitched today. Perez […]
