Pitchers With New Pitches - Should We Care For Fantasy Baseball? Part Two

The new pitch, like the shiny new toy, might be exciting on its own, but it also needs to be a complement to what a pitcher already has. Much like a toy that's the exact same as a toy we already have makes us forget the older toy. So instead of just celebrating that some […]

Bullpens to Cause Headaches in Fantasy Baseball

Collecting saves is a tricky and dangerous game in fantasy baseball. One of the major pitching categories in 5x5 roto leagues, they are hard to completely ignore.

Bullpen Report: Speculating on the Red Sox, Twins, Giants, and More

While many early-season trends in baseball can be dismissed as hot or cold starts, bullpens are the one thing you should always pay close attention to and get actionable information.

Justin Verlander Is Proving He's Still An Ace

What defines a Hall of Fame pitcher? There has been a lot of debate about what the qualifications are for a pitcher to be enshrined in Cooperstown, leading to an overall lack of clarity.
