• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  In what seemed like a season-long trend, short stops last week did not hit for much power at all, but did hit for very high AVGs and/or stole plenty of bases. With big, powerful short stops becoming less chic, it is clear that AVG, SB, and R are the trends to look for next season, so be ready to expand your draft spreadsheets: Gold Yuniesky Betancourt (Seattle Mariners) - Betancourt was a disappointment both on the field and at the plate, but his final week of the 2008 season gave Seattle at least...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  Short stops may be having a down fantasy season overall, but they look like they want to end the season on a very positive note. Short stops in general have been hitting well in September, and though the power numbers may not be there, the rest of the numbers are. This week's top three fields one mainstay, one surprise, and one name people expect to see on this list more often in the years to come: Gold Jose Reyes (New York Mets) - The Mets have been slumping of late, but that hardly seems to...

• 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 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Week 24

  It's September, and it's everyone final sprint to the finish as preparations for the playoffs begin. Now, more than ever, owners need to pay attention to their lineups as they fight either to secure that last playoff spot, or improve their seeding in fantasy tournaments. If you can bench the albatross in your lineup while also picking up the hot player of the week, which might give you the edge you need to make your statement: Note: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em will follow the weekly schedule...

• 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 - Short Stops

  The temperatures may be getting a little cooler, but it was a hot, hot week for short stops. Several short stops topped the .400 mark, meaning the the top three had to distinguish themselves in some other way, and distinguish themselves they did. It simply wasn't enough for these guys to get on base; they wanted to make some noise once they did. Your top three: Gold Jimmy Rollins (Philadelphia Phillies) : In many ways, it has been a season to forget for the 2007 NL MVP. Rollins has had a largely...

• MLB Busts of the Week - Week 22

  The most hurtful thing to fantasy owners are injuries. The second most hurtful thing is inconsistency. This week there was a little bit of both. Jimmy Rollins opened his mouth, again, and basically bashed the Phillies fans. Not a smart thing to do. It seems to have definitely effected him because he's been in a horrible slump. As for the injuries part, look no further than John Maine. He's trying to pitch through a bone spur, but things don't look good. As for the rest, that is inconsistency...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  It was an excellent week for the elite short stops, some of whom had not appeared on this list in quite some time. All three are in the middle of a playoff run, so their teams need them to step up big. Same goes for them in the fantasy world, as their owners look to get some production at short stop that has been lacking for the most part this year: Gold Hanley Ramirez (Florida Marlins) : After spending what seemed like the entire first half on this list, Ramirez cooled down a bit and spent much...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  Short stops are not hitting for much power this year, so they need to rely on high AVG and good numbers in a run-producing category. They did a pretty good job this week, as the top short stops of the week hit for a good average and drove in enough runs to satisfy their owners: Gold Mike Aviles (Kansas City Royals) : Somebody grab a bucket, because clearly Aviles needs to be extinguished. He has been red-hot pretty much ever since getting the call-up from Kansas City, and he continues to do nothing...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  This week is renaissance week for short stops. After slow starts to the season for each of the Top Three, one continues to prove he is one of the best players in fantasy baseball, one is proving that his powerful 2007 was no fluke, and one is finally showing why he was one of last year's rising stars: Gold Jose Reyes (New York Mets) : Reyes continues to surge into the upper echelon not only among short stops, but among all fantasy players. After a week in which Reyes hit .321 with two HR, six... Posted Jul 27 2008, 11:55 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Jose Reyes, MLB Top SS Performances, Troy Tulowitzki, J.J.

• MLB Buy 'n Sell (7/20)

  The first few games in the second half of the season have been quite exciting. There are several players who have started to pick things up, but there have also been some players that have fallen. Owners should keep their eyes open and hopefully try to acquire the missing piece of a championship team before the trade deadline. This installment of the MLB Buy ‘n Sell consists of three players in each of the two categories. Those that are riding hot streaks are prime candidates to sell, while those...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  For a short little while, short stops looked like they were breaking out of their season-long slump, hitting for insanely high averages and stealing plenty of bases. This week, there is some good news and bad news. The bad news? Short stops again had a mediocre week, with no short stop hitting more than two home runs or driving in more than six runs. The good news? With so many short stops clustered together, there is a good chance your team was not hurt by your short stop. With that, your top three...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  The cream rises to the top, as the top short stops from before the season take their rightful spots at the top of the SS list for this week. This week saw short stops do what we expected them to do: hit for average, steal bases, and hit for a little power. Your top three for the week: Gold Hanley Ramirez (Florida Marlins) : This is the Hanley Ramirez we know and love. After muddling through a relatively lowly season by his standards, Ramirez's bat woke up with a huge week. Ramirez not only hit...

• (Published) Fantasy Baseball Top Fives: Left-Side Infielders

  Last week, in honor of fans vigorously filling out their All-Star ballots, we decided to look at our ballots for the non-existent Fantasy All-Star Game, starting with the pitchers. As such, we will examine the top five players at each position thus far and why they are there. However, you will also see why certain players did not make the top five, plus a look at players who could crack the list by season's end. These lists should assist you in trade talks, whether you have a player on the list...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Short Stops

  Run like the wind, short stops, because that is where your fantasy values lie this year! Well, that and batting average, since power and run production do not seem to be in the cards after two full months of the season have passed. Still, the short stops have provided some diversity on fantasy rosters, none more than this week's top three: Gold Jose Reyes (New York Mets) : Reyes is the easy winner this week, as he hit .367 with three HR, four RBI, 10 R, and three SB. Reyes' fantastic week... Posted Jun 02 2008, 11:30 AM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Jose Reyes, MLB Top SS Performances, Jerry Hairston Jr., Marco Scutaro
