It’s possible we only get three games to choose from, so if you’re playing, you need to be in Discord for the latest updates as we get closer to the first pitch. […]

Drops & Disasters: Fantasy Baseball Roster Moves (4/7)
With the first full week of MLB games completed, and many crushing injuries to address, this should be a busy FAAB weekend.

There is a big 11-game main slate on Sunday, and I always like Sunday slates when the Rockies are at home because Coors is not generally included. It’s nice to have a slate where you don’t feel like you have to play Coors Field in some aspect, so let’s figure out who we like. We […]

We’ve got another nine games on Tuesday’s MLB DFS slate, and this will be the point where I start to use 2024 stats. We have one start for a bunch of pitchers, so that’s a data point and we have a handful of games offensively. It’s slightly flawed to just look at 4-5 games, but […]
