• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Third Basemen

  It was a relatively quiet power week for third basemen, who instead decided to hit for batting average and set the table for the other position players this week. Though they were not lacking in the power numbers, those statistics were not as prodigious as weeks past. Regardless, third basemen did plenty of damage this week, with a couple of big names leading the way: Gold Alex Rodriguez (New York Yankees) : Remember him, A-Rod, who was more likely than not the top overall pick in your fantasy league...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances – First Basemen

  When it comes to sports of any kind there is always one phrase that corresponds to what fans think of players - "What have they done for me now." It isn't about what they did last year, last month, or last week. Sports, especially fantasy sports, are about what is going on in the present. It just so happens that this week's top first basemen fit in well with that saying. Miggy Cabrera got a huge contract, but he didn't do anything for the Tigers to show that he really deserved...

• MLB Status Check - TWIB

  Hello folks, and welcome to MLB Status Check . I'm your host Tommy D filling in this week. It's that time of the week where we check the status of the "hypification" (totally just invented a new word) of players around the diamond of late. If any of you are familiar with my NBA version of Status Check, you'll know that I tend to look at trends instead of streaks, which usually means the time of evaluation for each player can vary from player to player. Don't be alarmed,...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Third Basemen

  There is no other way of putting it. In Week Three, the third basemen simply mashed, especially the superstars. Huge numbers from the elite third basemen made not only their teams happy, but their fantasy owners glad they picked these guys in the first few rounds (Author's Note: this article does not include the Sunday night Mets-Phillies results) : Gold Chipper Jones (Atlanta Braves) : Jones left Sunday's game with an injury, but not before continuing to punish opposing pitchers. Jones went... Posted Apr 20 2008, 06:25 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Miguel Cabrera, David Wright, MLB Top 3B Performances, Chipper Jones

• MLB Status Check (4/18)

  This was a very interesting week. This week really shows how much a single player can either hurt or help his team. Manny Ramirez has carried the Red Sox, David Ortiz has hurt the Red Sox, and Miguel Cabrera has done a bit of both to his Tigers. This week also showed the brilliance of Brandon Webb, as well as the talent of some lesser named players who have lots of talent of their own. This article is composed of three topics: Lived up to the hype, Way too hyped, and Keep an eye on. Three players...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 2

  Bust is a relative term at this point in the season. No, not bust size, that’s fairly scientific, I’m talking about whether or not a player on your fantasy team can be labeled as a bum and/or a bust. While it is ridiculously early in the long summer, our teams are taking shape and value is slowly being established. It’s not quite time to make rash decisions with these underperforming commodities, but it will be soon. Usually in this column I won't be punishing players who are afflicted by injury...

• Marlins/Tigers Eight Player Deal

  The Tigers propelled themselves into the elite of the American League officially today as they finalized their eight-player blockbuster trade with the Marlins. The Detroit Tigers sent southpaw pitcher Andrew Miller , Cameron Maybin along with catcher Mike Rabelo , and pitchers Eulogio De La Cruz , Dallas Trahern , and Burke Badenhop to the Florida Marlins for Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis . In the Tigers' lineup Miguel Cabrera's fantasy value will rise quite modestly, depending on where...
