Volume 2 - Preview to Stat Kings Keeper Baseball team.
I’d like to say we’re awesome and optimistic. 15 keepers….here’s how it shook out:

I am wondering if anyone is in, or has entertained the idea of a fantasy league, using the World Baseball Classic as a premise. It would be a brief thing of course, but would feed the need before the real fantasy baseball season starts. If anyone has any ideas or any interest about doing a [...]

I wasn’t the biggest Ted Lilly fan as he came up through the Montreal Expos system, but I thought he would be a solid pitcher, with 15-18 win potential when he was traded to the Yankees. It finally happened nearly a decade later when he signed with the North Siders, the Chicago Cubs. He has [...]

Since my keeper baseball league started in 2003, I have been accustomed to having a top catcher in Jorge Posada. I am not as big of a proponent in position scarcity as other fantasy owners, but this was a classic case of “Not knowing what you had until it’s gone”. I took for granted the [...]

36 Million Dollars for Mr. Erratic, come on! Oliver Perez may be the most maddening pitcher in the Major Leagues and Fantasy Leagues. In head to head leagues, he gives you negative points in a two start week and 30 points in a one start week. In roto leagues, he can be a major WHIP killer. I [...]
