Reviewing Edward Sutelan's Bold Predictions for 2016
Before this season, I made a couple of bold predictions about the upcoming season. There were some hits . . . and then there were some misses.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (10/7/16): MLB DFS Advice
As a Mets fan, I was a little bummed out by how the season ended, but that can be expected when dealing with multiple key injuries. On a different note, props have to be sent to Madison Bumgarner, who continues to prove that he's one of the best playoff pitchers in the MLB. In this […]

Week 26 Waiver Wire: First Base (1B) and Third Base (3B)
The tragic death of Jose Fernandez in a boating accident yesterday morning was a sobering reminder of how trivial this game truly is.

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (9/22/16): MLB DFS Advice
Ten games - all at night - on a Thursday in September? What's not to love? Relative to a normal get-away-day, 10 games is healthy number and as a DFS guy that likes to have his fair share of player options, every game being played at night is dreamy. As for Vegas lines, there isn't […]
Week 25 Waiver Wire: Catchers
Whew. Another fantasy baseball season is almost in the books. 2016 was definitely a weird one for catchers, since many of the big names either struggled to hit like they had in the past or started off red-hot and then fell off a cliff (Francisco Cervelli, I'm looking at YOU).

Arizona Fall League Preview: 2016 Glendale Desert Dogs
This year's Arizona Fall League rosters contain a lot of the top talent in minor league baseball. The fall league isn’t always a platform for promotion straight to the big leagues like Triple-A.

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Gregorius, Nunez, and Dozier
A few weeks back, I lamented Rich Hill's blister problem because it prevented me from including him in my NL trade deadline article. He is back now, but was famously pulled after just 89 pitches despite being perfect for seven innings, again due to blister concerns. Babying him may be the best move for the […]
