• MLB Status Check - Week 26

  The season is practically over, therefore there are some huge names on this list. There are some lesser named players, but there are also some of the biggest names in all of baseball on this list. Some did good, some did not. Owners needed some solid numbers in order to secure their final place in their leagues, yet some players did not deliver. This installment of MLB Status Check consists of nine total players and three categories. The categories are broken down into lived up to the hype , failed...

• 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 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 Fantasy Minute - Week 18

  The trade deadline is among the most exciting times in all of sports, and it is no less exciting for fantasy owners. This year's deadline was among the most exciting of recent times, which fits well into the theme of the season. What has made this season so exciting? AL outfielders, Cliff Lee, saves, and quiet stars: 1. Those traded prospects have something to prove. There is nothing fantasy owners like better than a quick, surprising fix. Sure, traded All-Stars like Manny Ramirez and Jason Bay...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Third Basemen

  This week, there are no surprises on this list. Top fantasy picks? We got 'em. Surprise waiver pickups? Have those. HR? We got 'em. AVG? We got 'em. RBI? We got 'em? Even SB? We have those too. Big names bring big numbers, and that is what happened at 3B this week: Gold Chone Figgins (Anaheim Angels) : Figgins is the absolute opposite of what fantasy owners look for in a 3B, but he continues to be a fantasy producer. No, he did not hit any home runs, and rarely does he ever do so...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Third Basemen

  It has been nearly two weeks since the All-Star game took place, but the stars are still out at the 3B position. Each of the Top Three at 3B are superstars who were taken very highly in their fantasy drafts. Though power numbers were down among 3B, these stars proved that they are so good because they can produce in a variety of ways: Gold Alex Rodriguez (New York Yankees) : A-Rod is still trying to find his power stroke (strange to hear about a guy with 21 HR in an injury-shortened year), but his...

• 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 Top Weekly Performances - Third Basemen

  Third basemen decided to forego power for batting average this week as many of the top third basemen hit over .300 for the week, but none topped three HRs. This week finds the top three consisting of one legend, one present-day star, and one future star: Gold Alex Rodriguez (New York Yankees) : So A-Rod is getting a divorce and is practicing the Kaballah with Madonna. Isn't this the guy who supposedly cannot have too many distractions? A-Rod tied Mickey Mantle on the all-time home run list by...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Third Basemen

  It was a big week for third basemen, as they showed off their power in a big way, not necessarily in quantity, but rather in the quality of their power (meaning the clutch factor). Only one surprising name on this week's list, though he couldn't beat out the man who is always expected to be at the top of any list: Gold Alex Rodriguez (New York Yankees) : A-Rod did it all: he hit for average (.375). He hit for power (two HR). He drove in big runs (total of four RBI). He scored big runs (four...

• MLB Status Check (6/19)

  There are several big names included in this week's MLB Status Check. However, the big names come as both a blessing and a curse for some owners. There were many big named players who put up great numbers, but there were also some well-known players who had absolutely horrible weeks. However, there is a bright side this week as well; namely Andy Pettitte. This article consists of three topics, each containing three players that fall into said category. Some players lived up to their draft status...

• 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 - Third Basemen

  It is insane weeks like this one that convince fantasy owners that not having an elite third baseman could really hurt the team. Third basemen are hitting for average, they're hitting for power, they're scoring runs... they're doing everything but pitching no-hitters. The top three this week probably could have thrown a no-hitter if their manager made them take the mound: Gold Joe Crede (Chicago White Sox) : To say that Crede had a good week would be a massive understatement. Sure, he... Posted Jun 08 2008, 11:18 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Alex Rodriguez, MLB Top 3B Performances, Chipper Jones, Joe Crede
