When the owner in my keeper league was fortunate enough to pick up Stephen Strasburg on waivers, once he became available on CBS’s fantasy site last season. Not only did said owner not have the worst record in the league, he now boasted a rotation of Halladay, Sabathia, Strasburg, Latos, Brett Anderson, Jurrjens, Wandy, Gavin [...]
In third place in my division going into this, trailing the playoff leader by four games with twenty-four remaining, so I am very much in the thick of things. Being in this precarious and familiar position of trailing this late, has me pondering the following dilemma: should I buy (make a dramatic push for a [...]

I have no adequate in house candidate to mitigate this loss, so I am going to have to mix and match my bench pitchers (Scott Feldman, Ross Ohlendorf, Jason Hammel) etc to help out. I am not going to outright drop Nathan yet because maybe I (and the Twins) get lucky and he only [...]
The last few years have allowed me to build a rock solid core in my keeper baseball league. I have to come clean, the last couple of drafts I basically mailed them in, figuring I can rip off an owner or three with my shrewd fantasy sports acumen and salesmanship. Also, I stay on top [...]
Well, the lesson here is you can’t take anything for granted. Stat King was absolutely taking it to his opponent last week as mentioned, but things got very interesting when fantasy stalwarts like Kevin Millwood and Joe Saunders made unexpected solid contributions, but King Felix’s gem may have swung the pendulum back towards Stat King [...]
First off, I want to tip my hat to Stat King…who’s on a truly scintillating run on his way to his first championship in one of my leagues!!! I know it’s not over till it’s over, but barring a fantasy baseball miracle, it’s in the bag. If his opponents get shutouts or no-hitters to beat [...]
Verlander at 4:10…need him to rebound, or at least lose a close low-scoring, high strikeout game, so Nathan can get the save ; ) He’s my last big start this week, so I have to build a decent lead to withstand the 5 start onslaught Randy has in store for me tomorrow.
Well, that was a lot closer than I like, I can exhale now after I squeaked by Andy, it was a lot closer than the score would indicate. He lost his two best players, Jose Reyes and Jake Peavy for most of the season and in spite of that, he won his division. Whether he [...]
One man’s opinion and analysis of the RELEVANT trades that took place this season (Yes I am talking to you Neal trading Nolan Reimold for Contreras and Derek Holland for Phil Hughes…talk about a waste of time) This is for the truly hardcore Fantasy Heads amongst us, because it can be as boring as watching [...]
I was on my way home from work when I called my friend Randy to chat about how our fantasy teams are going for the day. He was in the midst of facing Mark Buehrle’s perfect game (as was I in the keeper league, but I was able to handle it better because I have [...]
