• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Second Basemen

  The first base position may be the position of power, but it seems like the second base position has been the position of balance. There’s a nice blend of power, speed, and average from second basemen. Clint Barmes displayed that and put up some very steady numbers, but Chase Utley is the epitome of an elite second baseman. Last but not least is Felipe Lopez who proved that even when the Nationals don’t think you’re good enough to play baseball, you can keep trying and put up good numbers elsewhere...

• 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 - Catchers

  Catchers play an extremely physically demanding position, but that’s what makes good offensive catchers more appealing. They have to deal with the wear and tear of their normal position, and then they’ve got to play offense, get on base, and run around the bases as well. This week there were several catchers who put up some terrific numbers. When you think about all they have to go through during every single game then the numbers seem even more impressive. They deserve praise and recognition for...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell - Week 24

  The playoffs are underway and teams are being bounced out left and right. Soon enough we’ll all know who the winners were in our leagues. However, there are many out there who refuse to go down without a fight and are continually trying to improve their team before their next big face off. This installment of MLB Buy ‘n Sell consists of six players, three that had great weeks and three that had poor weeks. Each is placed in the category that best supports the type of week they had. It’s similar to...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell - Week 22

  The best thing in fantasy baseball is when you make a trade and wind up fleecing another owner because they didn't know as much. Too many people look for the quick fix and think a guy who's had an alright season and a great week will all of a sudden have a great season the rest of the way. That sometimes does work, but most of the time they'll wind up going back to their normal numbers and the owner will wind up worse than he was before the trade. That's what this article is here...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances – Center Fielders

  Speed kills in fantasy baseball. Stolen bases are hard to come by because it seems like players are so inconsistent with them. One year a guy will have 50 steals, but the next year he'll only have 30. This week there were guys running all over the base paths and it was quite a spectacle. However, Grady Sizemore stole the show with his amazing all-around performance. He did everything and showed how close he is to becoming a true, elite five-tool stud. The players listed in this article deserve...

• 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 Busts of the Week - Week 20

  It's pretty frustrating when players that are drafted early do not perform up to expectations. Early draft picks are used for players that are consistent and put up numbers that help an owners team win week after week. However, every player goes through a slump at one time or another during the season. This week there are several players that can use that excuse for poor performances. This installment of MLB Busts of the Week consists of six players that fantasy owners invested in, who haven't...

• MLB Buy 'n Sell - Week 21

  This week has been a bit different from past weeks. There are some pretty big names included in this segment, but it does seem to lack the elite names that have been present as of late. That doesn't mean there aren't great players, because there are some such as Ryan Braun and Brian McCann, but there are also a lot of lower tier guys who have been very solid that have made the list. This installment of MLB Buy ‘n Sell consists of two categories. The sell category lists players who have high...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances – Center Fielders

  Centerfield has been a very exciting position for fantasy baseball this week. There are no real superstars in this article, but there are some great all around players. Some of them have struggled, another is mainly a one stat wonder, but there is one player in here that doesn't get much recognition and he deserves it. I'm talking, of course, about Matt Kemp. He's an extremely solid and productive player. Hopefully he gets more recognition after this. All three players deserve credit...

• MLB Waiver Wire - Week 19

  Injuries are a huge part of teams not getting far as they should, but sometimes even the healthy players can hit the wall and hold the team back. Trades aren't always the answer to everything because they're expensive and usually made when an owner is desperate. Therefore if you were to trade and you were doing it out of desperation, sadly, you'd most likely wind up getting ripped off. That is why the waiver wire is such an important tool in fantasy baseball. There are players in there...

• 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 Fantasy Minute - Week 17

  This week's Fantasy Minute channels a little bit of John Denver, looks to the past for a return to glory, searches for hope in the hopeless, but also brings owners back to reality. Yup, it has a little bit of everything, just like this baseball season has had this year: 1. Rocky Mountain High on the Waiver Wire. Were you one of the many who jumped on Rockies players in the early or middle rounds of your draft? After all, the Rockies were a young team full of rising stars, and they had just come...

• 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...
