• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 25

  Now that the season is basically finished, those who did not win can finally vent their frustration on a handful of players who did not deliver. This is when owners needed the best that these players had to offer, but the players had other things on their mind. These players put up numbers that were extremely harmful to owners. This installment of MLB Busts of the Week consists of six players, all of which had horrible statistical weeks. The players on this list were drafted early in their drafts...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 24

  This is crunch time and owners need All-Star caliber weeks from every single player on their roster. The chances of every player putting up their best game is slim, but it really shouldn’t be too much to ask for an owners’ top draft picks to put up great numbers. This is when fantasy owners need their players to step up and help out. Sadly, that rarely happens, as was the case this week. This installment of MLB Busts of the Week consists of six players who were drafted early who haven’t produced...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 23

  This is it. The time is at hand for owners to reap the rewards of a championship. However, before that happens owners will need their so called better players to step up and produce like top players. Lately it seems like that hasn’t been the case and more and more top players are putting up horrible, and hurtful, stats at the worst time imaginable. This is the absolute worst time for players to go into slumps, at least from a fantasy perspective. Some owners are on the verge of a championship, but...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 22

  The playoffs are here and owners need production from key players more than ever right now. Unfortunately that doesn't always happen. There have been many disappointments from some very big name players. However, none is bigger than Brandon Webb and how horrible he's been lately. Owners need production from every single player on their roster because the end of the season is right around the corner. This installment of MLB Busts of the Week consists of six players who were drafted early,...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 22

  The most hurtful thing to fantasy owners are injuries. The second most hurtful thing is inconsistency. This week there was a little bit of both. Jimmy Rollins opened his mouth, again, and basically bashed the Phillies fans. Not a smart thing to do. It seems to have definitely effected him because he's been in a horrible slump. As for the injuries part, look no further than John Maine. He's trying to pitch through a bone spur, but things don't look good. As for the rest, that is inconsistency...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 20

  It's pretty frustrating when players that are drafted early do not perform up to expectations. Early draft picks are used for players that are consistent and put up numbers that help an owners team win week after week. However, every player goes through a slump at one time or another during the season. This week there are several players that can use that excuse for poor performances. This installment of MLB Busts of the Week consists of six players that fantasy owners invested in, who haven't...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 19

  This week was pretty ugly to look at. There are some elite fantasy players on this week's installment of MLB Busts of the Week , and that is definitely not a good thing. These players were drafted early on at their respective positions because they bring stats that are what help owners compete on a daily basis while trying to make their way into the fantasy playoffs. This article includes six players that basically failed their assignments and hurt owners more than they helped. Each player is...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 10

  Perhaps the most frustrating part of fantasy sports is when a highly ranked player does not perform as expected. When a player is drafted early they should be the model of consistency and produce well. However, that is not always the case since the players are human. This article will revolve around six players who were drafted early, or gained value as the season went on, who have suddenly been outperformed by lesser players. The players listed below are still legitimate players, but definitely...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 3

  One bust can derail your fantasy team's fortune in a particular week. Trust me, I know from experience, and it makes life difficult because you don't want to bench your star player. Yet you check the daily results and see that first round pick put up oh-fer after oh-fer, and it's enough to make you want to scream On the bright side, most of these players should pick up the pace real soon, so you can shift your worry to someone else. Okay, so there's at least one player who won't... Posted Apr 21 2008, 11:59 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Jose Valverde, Ryan Braun, Eric Gagne, C.C.
