Middle Men
08/21 - Back again for another list of middle relievers. For this week's column, we're going to look at five relievers who's numbers have been dreadful over the last month and discuss whether it's a short term blip or whether it's time to cut bait and run. We'll also look at five more who've been terrific and analyze More
The Scouting Report
08/19 - With eight home runs in just 67 at bats since his promotion to Triple-A, Kila Ka'aihue (1B, KC) is quickly moving up the minor league home run leaders chart. Ka'aihue spent a miserable year in Double-A Wichita in 2006, and was pedestrian in 2007, spending half the season back at High-A and the other More

Is The Idea of “Keepers” a Fallacy in Non-Auction Leagues?
08/18 - Not surprisingly, August brings a plethora of keeper questions. As fantasy teams' playoff chances fall by the wayside many owners' attention turns toward next year. This is the time when analysts get lots of keeper questions. Yet, there is one issue with regard More
Free Agent Forecast
08/16 - Knowing how to utilize your Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB) is one of the key ingredients in maintaining a championship fantasy baseball team. Just like in any auction format, the question remains will you make many smaller investments to try and upgrade one piece at a time, or will you try and More
Trend Spotting
08/16 - Two infielders and two outfielders are featured in today's article, where special attention is spent on the final 40 games or so to be played in the 2008 season. None of these guys is waiver wire material, but you still have time to pull off a sell high or buy low deal that could involve any of these players. More
Showing the Love
08/15 - *cough* Hey! *cough* Look over here! It can be tough to keep track of every baseball player who is helping (or hurting) fantasy baseball teams throughout the year. The big networks and the fantasy community are often quick to pick up on the major stories - Josh Hamilton, Cliff Lee, Edinson Volquez, More
Brushbacks
08/15 - Pitching is one of the most challenging things to predict in all fantasy sports, but I will keep trying.

Middle Men
08/14 - Back again for another list of Middle Relievers. If you read last week's column, you hopefully jumped on Chris Perez of St. Louis, who seems to be leading the pack as closer, especially since the Cardinals are now stretching out Adam Wainright in the minors.

Marlins rotation young and exciting

The promise of the Florida Marlins pitching staff is too exciting to ignore, and two years after Scott Olsen, Josh Johnson, Ricky Nolasco and Anibal Sanchez became the first four rookies to register at least 10 victories each for one team, the quartet is now keeping the Fish in the 2008 National League pennant race . Nolasco's performance on Tuesday night at AT&T park, believe it ...

08/20 - Jason Isringhausen (RHP, STL)
For most of the 2008 season we reported that Izzy was not right physically. We speculated that his arthritic left hip was the ailment causing his struggles, and it may very well have contributed to them. That said, the news today is that he has a torn flexor muscle in his pitching forearm and that his season is over. There have been no reports ...
