Pat Murphy, the Brewers’ manager and the head of the MLB’s Irish-American Anti-Defamation League, Take A Walk After BB (Beaucoup Beverages) is on the phone with his chapter, “Hey, Seamus, I’d like to send this new Giants’ kid, Tyler Fitzgerald, a personal greeting from Colm Meaney and Brendan Gleeson dressed as leprechauns to welcome him to the major leagues. Please, blog, may I have some more ..read more

Greetings friends and readers, hope you are enjoying your summer both in real life and in the fantasy baseball realm. I honestly wasn’t expecting there to be so little trade news or even rumblings with less than a week to go before the deadline, but I suppose with the new playoff rules and the relative lack of obvious sell candidates, that is to be expected.

There’s never been more data for anything at our fingertips than what there is for us right now. Between this preponderance of data and the increasing competence of machine learning, there’s nothing we feel we can’t predict. Take the weather, for instance.

Dylan Cease (9 IP, 0 ER, 0 hits, 3 walks, 9 Ks, ERA at 3.50) throws a dandy, but you know what else? Dylan Cease is a dandy! Not the 1954 through present-day definition! I don’t know if he dandies like that. Please, blog, may I have some more ..read more

That is both terrible and uplifting at the same time. You’re a liar if you say you didn’t crack a smile and pump a fist or two. Unlike Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli, Jose Iglesias of the New York Mets is not a one-hit wonder. Please, blog, may I have some more ..read more

What is up party people? Who is the hottest bat in the majors right now and why is it Tyler Fitzgerald? Fitz may be the only guy hotter than Lawrence Butler (more on him later)  right now with his home run binge. If he gets the chance to play everyday, and let's be honest the Giants should run him out there to see what he can do, there might be more than just a hot streak here. Both power and speed were on display in the minors along with a fairly solid average with more strikeouts than you would like. He has defensive versatility and has seen time all over the field. He's even taken ..read more

In our 53rd episode, Mike Couillard and Jeremy Brewer open by discussing the latest and greatest transactions and moves including a injuries to Ozzie Albies, Bo Bichette, and Max Fried along with the epic collapse of the Seattle Mariners. Then we analyze players and playing time situations that could be changing around the July 30 trade deadline and create or destroy fantasy value. Please, blog, may I have some more ..read more

So, this is a little unrelated to fantasy — don’t worry, we’ll get to stuff that is 100% unrelated in a second — but here’s the setup, Cal Quantrill (6 IP, 2 ER, 8 baserunners, 3 Ks, ERA at 4.09) threw a good pitch to get Reese McGuire to pop-up and celebrated on the mound. Please, blog, may I have some more ..read more

This week marks the beginning of a bottleneck on the minor league baseball calendar.  The Arizona and Florida Complex Leagues will finish their regular seasons on Thursday before a brief playoffs. After the postseason, some of these players will head to a practice facility after a 50-game season. Some will get promoted to Low-A to continue their development via in-game repetitions. You can probably guess which outcome most players would prefer. It’d be a long off-season if you weren’t going to play an actual game again for about seven months.  ..read more

It’s time for post All-Star Break SAGNOF Razzjiblets. I hope you are ready for a fun and exciting stretch run in fantasy baseball and that your teams are all doing better than mine are. I missed the cutline in Razzslam thanks to an awful week 16 performance. Please, blog, may I have some more ..read more
