All-Star Break Overrated/Underrated: Third Basemen

This column has (generally) been published on a weekly basis since the season started, yet it hasn't covered third basemen. It's mostly because the third base position runs so deep and has provided so much value that it's hard to say anyone could be considered overrated and deserves lower rates of ownership. A quick glance, […]

Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: Shortstops

If you came to me eight years ago and asked about the depth at shortstop, I would tell you that aside from a few stud prospects, the shortstop position did not look great. There weren’t a lot of impact bats and there were mostly just some slick defenders at the position. Now all of that […]

Jose Ramirez (2B/3B/SS/OF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 57% of Fleaflicker leagues. EXPERT ANALYSIS: Jose Ramirez has been tremendously useful thus far as he's posted a 42/4/32/10/.300 batting line, which is good for the 114th best stat line in the fake game in standard leagues. Not only has he been enormously productive, and likely […]

Dynasty Review: Deep Fantasy League Advice for Week 14

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/1/16): MLB DFS Advice

DraftKings prices came out before Clayton Kershaw was placed on the DL. That means the Rockies price tags are all extremely low, such as Carlos Gonzalez, who is only $3.4k tonight.
