• 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 Buy 'n Sell - Week 26

  The fantasy season is nearly over, but there’s still enough time for some owners to make a few quick adjustments to get their final lineups and rosters together. Values are forever fluctuating and the players listed below all had their values change in a big way. There are three players who had high values this week and three who had weeks that they would probably rather forget. This article suggests that those who have the higher value should be sold, while owners should specifically target those...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Starting Pitchers

  Starting pitching usually wins championships, but that isn’t always the case. Sure, there was a top name on this week’s list. There was also a guy who’s had talent but never did much. However, even though his numbers weren’t the best of any of these pitchers, the number three guy put absolutely incredible numbers, especially considering that nobody would even think to use him considering he was coming off of such a horrible last couple of weeks. These three pitchers have been incredible and have...

• MLB Status Check - Week 25

  The fantasy season is winding down, but baseball is heating up. Some players have no quit in them and have been on absolute fire. However, there have also been those that have hit slumps and are struggling. That is what makes fantasy baseball so exciting. Things can change quickly and you never know when a player will heat up or cool down. That’s especially why the waiver wire is so fun to look through each week. Sometimes that could be the difference between winning and losing. Good luck to all...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell - Week 25

  It’s finally here. The end of the season. Championship matches will be starting soon for those in head-to-head leagues. This is the final time to update rosters to get that last missing piece of the puzzle. Tinkering with rosters can be a risk, but there are some players to consider buying or selling this week. This installment of MLB Buy ‘n Sell consists of six players that could have an impact this week, whether it’s negative or positive. Three players are placed in each category which best displays...

• 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 Top Weekly Performances - Starting Pitchers

  It’s impossible to predict pitching, but if you were to bet money on pitchers then these three would be solid guys to bet on, at least as of late. Each player has an interesting story to go along with their recent accomplishments. Brett Myers was sent down to the minors to work on his mechanics. He came back and has been better than ever. Rich Harden has always dealt with injuries, but then he was dealt to the Cubs. He’s been pitching like a Cy Young contender ever since. As for Felix Hernandez,...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Catchers

  Catchers seem to come and go, but Geovany Soto and Brian McCann look like they’ll be fixtures in the catching department for a while. Each of them seem to be two of the most consistent catchers in the league. It wasn’t luck that made each of them NL All-Star catchers. However, as for the future, it may be here in the form of Nick Hundley. He’s had a very solid week and seems to fit in nicely as part of the Padres’ puzzle. Each player deserves recognition for their great weeks. Geovany Soto probably...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Starting Pitchers

  Pitching wins championships, at least in fantasy baseball. It is so important to have solid pitching that can get wins, prevent losses, maintain a solid ERA and WHIP, and rack up strikeouts. That's exactly what the three pitchers in this article did. It's nice to see that the top pitchers of the week are guys that did what they were supposed to do. None of those listed are a surprise since they are expected to produce like this week in and week out. Most of these guy will be involve in Cy...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Second Basemen

  The second base position used to be hard to fill with a very good player, but more and more players are becoming versatile enough to play the position enough to qualify as a second baseman. However, the true second basemen are what this is about and the three listed below fit that bill. Sure, some of them have played a few games at other positions, but their primary position is second base. The three players mentioned below put up great numbers to help fantasy owners and deserve recognition for their...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Catchers

  Catchers are difficult to invest in because they wear down so quickly because they've got to play such a physically challenging position. There have been some consistent catchers this week, mainly Brian McCann, but this week there were some new faces that haven't been on this list in a while. First off, Chris Snyder, back after fracturing a testicle, had an amazing week. Joe Mauer, who has a huge following in fantasy baseball, had a great week, but he's been gone for a while. Another...

• 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 Buy 'n Sell - Week 20

  The trading deadline is officially here, but there are a lot of leagues out there that don't use a deadline. That means more time to tweak lineups before the playoffs. There are some interesting names in this week's version of MLB Buy ‘n Sell. There aren't as many lesser named players on this week's list because these players are suddenly in the spotlight and the hype machine is in full gear. That mainly refers to Raul Ibanez and Denard Span. Ibanez has had the best week for a Mariner...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Second Basemen

  Second base is a very fun position to draft for in fantasy baseball. There are some guys who can hit for power and average; there are others who steal a lot of bases. However, the best part of that position is that you never know when someone is going to breakout because it seems like every single season there is a second baseman who joins the other terrific second basemen in terms of offensive production. Placido Polanco was like that last year when he broke out and put up great numbers. Jeff Kent...

• MLB Status Check - Week 19

  This has been an extremely exciting week for fantasy baseball. There were some insanely dominant performances this week. Some players were in dire need of turning the corner and this week they did just that. Some have been dominant since coming back or overcoming injuries. Others have been dominant after trades. However, there are some that just didn't do well in general. In fact, all three players who could be labeled ‘busts' this week were among the top producers at their level. This version...
