Week 5 Buy and Sell for Fantasy Baseball

Last week’s buys did pretty well. Miguel Sano hasn’t gone deep since last week’s column, but he did start May by going 5-for-11 with three doubles and a couple of walks. He’s pushed his batting average up to .260 and, when the homers start coming, that’s plenty good enough. Though Chris Archer wasn’t dominant in […]

Baseball is my one true love. There’s nothing quite like going to the park on a Sunday afternoon, soaking in some Rays, and watching two teams play the game that I love. But last night, Home Box Office, or HBO, if you will, may have stolen my heart in the form of Game of Thrones. […]
