• MLB Status Check - Week 23

  The playoffs are here and some owners are already out of it thanks to a few players here who haven’t lived up to the hype. However, there were some early draft picks who are on absolute fire and helping some owners on their way to a fantasy championship. This edition of MLB Status Check consists of three categories. Each category consists of three players who’s performance of the week best falls into said category. This is the biggest time of the season and owners need every player on their team...

• 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 Buy 'n Sell - Week 23

  There have been some real head scratchers this week. For instance, how can 5’9” Dustin Pedroia make A-Rod look like a clueless rookie? How could the fragile Carl Pavano look like a Cy Young finalist compared to Brandon Webb? The questions go on and on and the answers are just as mystifying. It seems like everything has gone opposite because the players you’d expect to do well are not doing anything productive, and those that are solid, but unspectacular, have all of a sudden begun playing like the...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Second Basemen

  Second base doesn’t exactly sound like a huge fantasy position, but lately it really has been. However, most people think of it in terms of speed and average, but not power. There are some players that provide a little of everything. Sure there’s Chase Utley, and Brandon Phillips, but it really isn’t as deep overall as some owners would like. Luckily there is emerging talent in that position. Brian Roberts was elite, but it seems like he’s regressed a little bit. However, Dustin Pedroia is on the...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Center Fielders

  Centerfield has been an exciting position lately. Grady Sizemore was the talk of the fantasy world last week, but this week Mike Cameron takes the gold medal for top performance. He has had an amazing comeback season and the Brewers couldn’t be happier. As for the rest, Carlos Beltran helped the Mets’ playoff chances after hitting a huge grand slam. Johnny Damon has been the sparkplug of the Yankees, but baseball is about teamwork and no player can do it all by himself. These three players have put...

• MLB Status Check - Week 21

  There have been many disappointments in fantasy baseball this year. However, there have also been many surprises that have helped save many owners' seasons. Three such surprises are in this article and could have been had by anyone off the waiver wire this year. As stated earlier, there have also been many disappointments, and one of the bigger names in category would be Derek Jeter. He had a sub-Jeter like year and hadn't exactly been helping fantasy owners (or the Yankees) too much. Until...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell - Week 19

  The trade deadline for fantasy baseball is just around the corner. There are several players that could be moved in order to help solidify fantasy teams and make a final run at a championship. The players listed below fall into one of two categories. The sell category is for players who have high values this week, but in all reality their numbers will most likely take a dip due to inconsistency. The other category features some big named players who have had a rough week, therefore hurting their...

• MLB Status Check - Week 18

  What a week! There have been some extremely big names in the spotlight this week. It seemed like there was an elite player in every category this week. This was especially exciting because some owners got big days from players they hoped to perform well, while other others were given absolutely horrible performances by their players. Then there are some players who have been playing well as of late who have helped owners out as well. This version of MLB Status Check contains three categories; lived...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell - Week 18

  The trade deadline is approaching and now is the time to make that major move you've been waiting for. This will be the last time owners can fix up their teams via trade; therefore it's time to make the most of it. There have been some big names that are slumping and some big names that have been red hot, even though they aren't expected to continue that pace. This article of MLB Buy ‘n Sell focuses on three players, whose value is red hot, who should be sold and three players, whose...

• MLB Status Check (7/24)

  We haven't seen a week like this in quite a long time. It is, in my opinion, the perfect week for some fantasy owners. Some players are playing their hearts out while others looks fizzled out and are in prolonged slumps. Of course if you own a player in a slump then you aren't happy, but if you own one of the players that are on fire then you're dancing for joy, especially if your opponent has one or more of the mentioned slumping players. Things don't stop at that though. There are...

• MLB Waiver Wire - Week 17

  Trying to find someone decent after the All-Star game? Picking someone up now is taking a chance and hoping you're picking right. Most of the quality players have been grabbed and people can see what to expect from the ones who are left, but with waiver wire, there is always someone stashed away you could use to help your team. You just have to find them and here is a little help. Nomar Garciaparra Los Angeles Dodgers - 3rd Owned: 25% Notes : Nomar is having a decent year, not quite what everyone...

• MLB Weekly Sleepers (7/20)

  Risk is a huge part of fantasy baseball. With big risks come big rewards. However, big risks can easily burn you and wind up hurting you more than you already were. The risk that has to do with this article is the risk of players returning from the DL from various injuries. Three of the five players listed in this article have been on the DL for a little while and may not even come back when they were scheduled to do so. However, if they do come back then the numbers they are capable of putting up...

• MLB Weekly Sleepers (7/13)

  It is very hard to predict how well a player will do. However, there are always a few players of some value who have been stuck in slumps, and then they suddenly break out and put up great numbers. This week's version of MLB Sleepers of the Week consists of five players who have either not been doing well lately, or they've been very inconsistent. Each player in this article has a history that proves they have the ability to put up some great numbers after the All-Star break. Hopefully these...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell (7/13)

  This installment of MLB Buy 'n Sell will be a little different than normal. With the All-Star break right around the corner, this article will still focus on some players who's value is higher/lower depending on how they pitched this week, but it will also give a view into how they've faired after the break in the past, for those that have enough experience that is. It was hard to find players worth selling because there were so many players with high value. However, I believe that I...

• MLB Status Check - Week 14

  Many fantasy owners praised the fantasy gods this week. There hadn't been too many really outstanding offenses performances. There have been some alright performances lately, but this week the crop of elite players is quite high and fantasy owners couldn't be any happier. This week's version of MLB Status Check will focus on nine total players. Those players are divided into three categories; lived up to the hype, didn't live up to the hype, and keep an eye on. The first two categories...
