2020 Player Profile: Zac Gallen
Everyone is drafting Zac Gallen this season with the belief that he will grab a starting spot with the Diamondbacks and extend out the run of dominance he offered over 15 outings last season. Gallen profiled as 4th starter type since the draft, but he exploded on the scene last season with such impact that Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: David Price
A perennial all-star level performer, David Price will suit up for a new team this season with the Dodgers. The 34 year old lefty can still get outs, no doubt about that, but there are legitimate concerns about the workload. So, we will examine the skills below, while keeping an eye on what the legitimate Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Byron Buxton
We all had that girl/guy we just couldn’t quit growing up. They would say hello to us, and our hearts would skip a beat. They would smile at us, and we would forget what day it was. They would ask us to help them with something, and like a moron, we would say yes no Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

Position Tiers Overview: RP
Elite save totals have become a scarcer commodity over the last couple of seasons. New-school managers are less reliant on committing to a reliever to be their ninth-inning man and instead opting for committees based upon BvP matchup optimization. These managers care not about our fantasy teams. Let’s kick this off with an illustration. Here Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Rhys Hoskins
Rhys Hoskins was dynamic as a rookie, leading to some unreasonable expectations in year two. He was good in his second season, not great but good, causing a re-thinking of his value. People are now looking at him as somewhat of a failure given his “down” in his third season last year. We will explore Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Mitch Keller
Mitch Keller turns 24 years of age in April with 11 uneven big-league starts under his belt. There were tons of strikeouts last season, but also an insane amount of base hits allowed for the young Pirates’ hurler. Keller is seen as pretty much a can’t miss pitching prospect, but does that mean he can’t Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Ian Happ
A first round selection in 2015, Ian Happ should have arrived by now. He hasn’t, but it’s not been for a lack of trying. This spring he finds himself in a battle to finally, firmly, establish himself as an every day piece of the Cubs puzzle. 25 years old Bats/Throws: Both/Right Height/Weight: 6’0”, 205 Read More!

This is this the summary of recent ADP (average draft position) risers and fallers, per NFBC data (there have been over 500 paid drafts that we can gather information from, and their data has become the industry standard).

Roto League Targets for 2020
I don’t know how some of you do it. You go through life willy-nilly and seem genuinely happy to do so. I’m not criticizing you, I am actually very, very jealous. You see, I need to plan EVERYTHING. I have the next month of my life planned out in great detail. Sure, there are always Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Andrew Benintendi
In just a few short years, Andrew Benintendi has been the best hitting prospect in baseball, arguably the top prospect in baseball, a second-place finisher in the Rookie of the Year race, a 20/20 performer and a fantasy letdown. He’s been all of it. Let’s look at the wild ride and what we should expect Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Lucas Giolito
At one time, Lucas Giolito was the best right-handed pitching prospect in baseball. Injury struck, followed by poor and then terrible performance, and he was an afterthought at drafts last season. Flash forward 12 months and he has reclaimed his lost luster to the point that he is widely being regarded as an SP2 option Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Luke Weaver
A first-round pick in 2014, Luke Weaver has long tantalized with his pitching skills. He has yet to break out in an appreciable way, though many seem to be expecting said breakout to occur this season. Is that faith in the righty misplaced? 26 years old Bats/Throws: Right/Right Height/Weight: 6’2”, 175 lbs. Position: Starting Pitcher Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

The Exclusive KC Cha Interview
The man, the myth…the elusive. Over the last few years, many of the world’s most successful and profitable high-stakes fantasy baseball players have taken to Twitter to join the daily conversation about our beloved hobby. There are very few folks at the top of their game who don’t have an online presence (on Twitter) and are front and center…
2020 Player Profile: Lourdes Gurriel
Lourdes Gurriel has a difficult name to spell. Prior to last season, many were predicting a potential breakout for the youngster. However, there were lots of struggles, including a bout of the yips with throwing the baseball, but on the strength of one massive month he did hit 20 homers in just 84 games with Read More!

2020 Player Profile: Luis Arraez
As a 22 year old last year, in a season of 92 games played, Luis Arraez hit a robust .334. He’s on the Twins, he qualifies at multiple spots on the diamond, and he just might be someone to pay a wee bit more attention to on draft day. 22 years old Bats/Throws: Left/Right Read More!

2020 Player Profile: Bryan Reynolds
No one drafted this Pirates’ outfielder last season. In the end, he had one of the most productive seasons by any rookie in baseball, including a .314 batting average. Is Bryan Reynolds a perennial .300 hitter who is likely to develop a bit more power, or is he kinda just a guy in the outfield Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

Position Tiers Overview: SP
To keep this from turning into a Dostoevsky mini novel, we’ll keep the introduction brief. Year after year, starting pitcher is the position that bring us the most heartache and pain. The position in and of itself is inherently volatile, injury-laden and the most difficult to project. There are just so many other influences outside Read More!

2020 Player Profile: Corey Seager
It was just a few years ago that Corey Seager was the top prospect in baseball. Not with his team, not at his position, but in all of baseball. His climb to the mountain top has been delayed by health woes, but it seems to me that a whole lot of folks just don’t seem Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Hunter Dozier
In 2013, Hunter Dozier was the 8th overall selection in the Draft. He was expected to be a true leader for the Royals for years to come. Along the way, the train fell off the proverbial tracks. Dozier had success in the minors, nothing great mind you, and his early work in the big leagues Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Franchy Cordero
Franchy Cordero is a player that I have eluded to previously as someone who intrigues me. To this point of his career though, he has either been injured, performed poorly, or been blocked for playing time at the big-league level. It appears that with the opening of the 2020 season, all impediments have been removed Read More! You need a subscription to access this content.

2020 Player Profile: Victor Robles
Victor Robles finished 6th in the NL Rookie of the Year vote last season as he nearly went 20/30. Yet there are many folks coming into this season that believe his draft day cost is far too high given that the batted ball data suggests that Robles is way more of a “guy” than a Read More!

2020 Player Profile: Corey Dickerson
Corey Dickerson has one season of 25 homers, has never driven in 80 runs, has hit just 25 homers the last two seasons and plays for the Marlins. All of those factors have to be why he’s generating such little excitement at the draft table this season. Is that position accurate, or are folks missing Read More!
