Questionable Fantasy Baseball Keepers: 2010

Written on January 29, 2010 – 12:12 pm | by Keith Giordano |

Every fantasy baseball keeper league team has two types of keepers.  There are those that are no brainers: studs that are just too valuable to drop.  Then there are the bubble players: those players who are good and have upside, but the price has to be right in order to protect them.  Depending on your [...]

2010 Fantasy Baseball Tiers: Outfield

Written on January 14, 2010 – 3:00 pm | by Keith Giordano |

The outfield is full of talent, and the upside lasts deep into the tiers.  With perhaps some of the best players that blend power and speed, you can make up some ground here if your infield is weak.  Don’t feel like you HAVE to get 4 great ones early though, because there will be good [...]

2010 Fantasy Baseball Tiers: Shortstop

2010 Fantasy Baseball Tiers: Second Base

Written on January 6, 2010 – 6:39 pm | by Keith Giordano |

Second base seems to be the thinest position for the 2010 season.  As someone who has no players to protect at second base in one of my keeper leagues, it is a little scary to look at the options that are going to be available.  One of the most complex equations that fantasy GMs have [...]

2009 MLB Stats You Need to Know: AB/HR

Written on December 11, 2009 – 11:55 pm | by Keith Giordano |

If you are looking to find power, a good place to start is HR.  Once you realize that every other fantasy baseball GM out there is looking at that too, then it is time to get a little more serious.  Looking at who lead the league in home runs is great, but unless you account [...]
