Nationals Showing Interest In Christian Yelich
Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports that the Washington Nationals have shown interest in Miami Marlins outfielder Christian Yelich. They have also been reported to have interest in catcher J.T. Realmuto. For the Marlins to be willing to move either player, they expect a sky-high offer, and it doesn’t seem like the Nationals are willing to […]
Champ or Chump - Magneuris Sierra and Matt Moore
Last week, we looked at how West Coast players frequently become fantasy values because not everyone can stay up late enough to watch them play. The same principle applies to teams that fantasy owners expect to be utterly terrible. The 2018 iteration of the Miami Marlins is therefore a great place to look for potential […]

With the holidays in the rearview mirror, it’s time to turn our attention to the upcoming fantasy baseball season.

Shohei Ohtani - What Should We Expect in 2018 and Beyond?
Shohei Ohtani is already the most talked-about player in the baseball world and he doesn't even belong to a Major League team. Not yet, at least.

2018 Dynasty Baseball Strategy - The Home Run Elephant in the Room
We've all heard about the home runs. A total of 6,105 balls left the yard in 2017 - or avoided outfielders sufficiently for an inside-the-park home run. The previous record of 5,693 home runs was set in 2000 during the peak of the steroid era. This time, juiced balls and mechanical changes seem to be […]
