Week 11 doesn't bring too many changes in the rankings, but several teams are beginning to separate themselves from the field in both directions.

Fantasy Baseball Lineup Notes: Batting Order, Platoons, and Playing Time Changes - Week 11
We're onto Week 11 in the fantasy baseball world. Wild things continue to happen in baseball while some things continue to normalize. This is the part where I tell you that my Colorado Rockies are back...to their normal ways, anyways. They ran into the buzzsaw that is the Cincinnati Reds, who many have feared dearly, and […]
Carlos Rodriguez Tallies Seven Punchouts Across Five Frames
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitching prospect Carlos Rodriguez tossed 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball on Wednesday and allowed just one hit, two walks, and struck out seven. This was a nice bounce-back performance for the right-hander, as he held a 3.86 ERA and 1.13 WHIP over his previous three starts. This is the 22-year-old's first […]

Florio's Fantasy Baseball Bullpen Report: Figuring Out Mets, Blue Jays, and Other Confusing Bullpens
Every week gives us some sort of meaningful bullpen information. But few weeks have as impactful news as this past one. We saw one of the first relievers drafted land on the IL while the rest of his bullpen was a mess. We also saw another big name, a proven closer, land on the IL. […]
Fantasy Baseball Risers and Fallers - Davis Schneider, Jo Adell, Nathaniel Lowe, etc.
There is nothing quite like the ebbs and flows of fantasy baseball. Every at-bat of every game is the final straw based on that moment whereas in reality, players will have hundreds more across the next dozen weeks to neutralize whatever outcome came about. Across the past two months, plenty of recently unknown players have […]
Aaron Ashby Called Up And Starting On Wednesday
The Milwaukee Brewers called up left-hander Aaron Ashby from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday to make the start on the road against the Phillies in Philadelphia. We aren't recommending Ashby as a fantasy streamer on the road against one of the best offenses in baseball, but the 26-year-old southpaw is worth considering as a waiver-wire pickup […]
Robert Gasser Placed On 15-Day Injured List
The Milwaukee Brewers placed left-handed rookie Robert Gasser (elbow) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to June 2) with a left flexor strain. The Brewers added left-hander Andy Ashby and right-hander Tobias Myers from Triple-A Nashville and optioned right-hander Janson Junk to Nashville. It's a bummer that the 25-year-old southpaw is going to miss at […]
Fantasy Baseball Trade Candidates (Hitters): Sell High or Ride the Value Train?

Robert Gasser Not Dealing With Structural Damage
An MRI exam on Milwaukee Brewers rookie left-hander Robert Gasser's elbow came back negative for any structural damage, and manager Pat Murphy described Gasser's injury as tightness and soreness. "There's a possibility he could miss some time. But from the first MRI, I guess it looks pretty normal," Murphy said. The Brewers aren't going to […]
Colin Rea To Work Behind Opener On Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Colin Rea will work behind an opener on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Phillies on the road. It's unclear who the Brewers will use as the opener after going with Jared Koenig on Monday. Rea, 33, worked as the team's bulk reliever behind Koenig on May 25 against the Boston Red Sox and […]
When Will Jacob Misiorowski Be Called Up? 2024 MLB Prospect Outlook
Jacob Misiorowski is an important name to know moving forward in fantasy baseball. The 6-foot-7 Brewers starting pitcher possesses two elite pitches in his fastball and slider. He is dominating Double-A this year but still walking an egregious rate of hitters. How long will Misiorowski remain in the minors? Will he even get called up […]
Should I Stash Cade Povich In Redraft Leagues? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook
The Baltimore Orioles are not only one of baseball's best all-around clubs but according to MLB Pipeline, they also boast the league's No. 1-ranked farm system. Pick your poison: Jackson Holliday, Samuel Basallo, Colton Cowser, Coby Mayo, or Heston Kjerstad. This is after trading infielder Joey Ortiz to the Brewers in the Corbin Burnes trade […]
Robert Gasser Seeking Second Opinion On Injured Elbow
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said in his pregame session on Monday that rookie left-hander Robert Gasser (elbow) is dealing with "some tightness, soreness" in his left elbow and that he's in the process of receiving a second opinion. In just the fifth start of his rookie season on Saturday against the Chicago White Sox, […]

Fantasy Baseball Players To Watch For The Week Ahead (June 3 - June 9)
Well, out of Shota Imanaga, Ranger Suarez, and Seth Lugo, it was Imanaga who blinked, allowing seven earned runs against the Brewers.

Sneaky Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups and Buys (Week 10): Super Subs to Sustain Success?
Waiver-wire pickups and setting lineups can make or break fantasy baseball leagues.
