If you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a hundred times: Fantasy Football never sleeps. We are months away from Week 1, yet you clearly need your fix since you checked my quarterback tiers article in early June.My rankings, once complete, will be released for standard, PPR and even half-point PPR all on Fantrax. You will be able to filter through the scoring format you want, as well as positions, etc! Make sure to continue to check back here for when they are released! But, as I work on them, I decided to give you all a…

Is Jake Odorizzi the innings filler from the last two years or the fantasy ace of 2019?

Workhorse running backs are a dying breed. What does that mean about their value on draft day?

Fantasy Football season never ends. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t ebbs and flows to the season. Right now is the down period between the NFL Draft and training camp. This is the time of the football season where you should be jumping in some best ball drafts to help you learn the player pool and help you craft the perfect draft strategy – luckily for you, you can join one on Fantrax for as little as $10! But this is also the time of year where I begin to do my deep rankings dive. I have a pretty good idea of the players…

You may not know it, but Memorial Day Weekend is a huge date on the fantasy baseball calendar. It is basically the New Year's Day for your team. On New Year's Day you hungoverly stumble to the mirror, take a hard look at yourself, and think of a resolution! Maybe you want to read more, maybe you want to be a nicer person, or most likely, you want to get into better shape. Well, Memorial Day for your fantasy baseball team is not much different. You hungoverly look over your roster, the standings, and evaluate your team. Can…

Heading into each Fantasy Baseball season there is more and more research on statistical trends. I write about it every winter and how the latest trends should affect your team building and the numbers you shoot to reach in each category. However, once the season starts, the statistical trends tend to get overlooked. Memorial Day Weekend is a huge timestamp on the fantasy baseball calendar, as it is often a date cited where fantasy owners and analysts tend to agree, it is now time to take a hard look in the mirror… and your…

There are a number of players that Fantasy owners have picked up and enjoyed their success, but are wondering if this is just a hot stretch or something to buy into going forward. Let's dive into a number of these fantasy baseball breakouts and I will tell you if I think it is for real or not! Fantasy Baseball Breakout or Short Term Treat? Tommy La Stella has been nothing more than an injury fill-in in the deepest of fantasy baseball leagues to this point in his career. Suddenly he is batting .299 with a .373 OBP, and his…

It is May. While your fantasy football league mates are likely still fully in Fantasy Baseball mode or worrying about Memorial Day BBQs, here you are reading about Fantasy Football sleepers. This is why you win chips in December!These sleepers are guys you can target in early fantasy drafts (best balls are now open!) like I have and are names to remember come August.Looking to change things up in 2019? Check out the recent Fantrax SuperFlex Mock Draft.Early Fantasy Football Sleepers for 2019 Parris…

Whether you appreciate it or not yet, we just went through one of the craziest adventures that will be talked about for years to come. But, no, I am not talking about Game of Thrones (sadly) coming to an end, I am talking about the first ever FAAbageddon. This past Sunday was the craziest FAAB period I have experienced in my time as a Fantasy baseball player. I came away with two shares of Nicky Lopez, one of Oscar Mercado for very cheap, and one share of Keston Hiura, for not that cheap. Meaning I missed out on Austin…

This week I participated in a mock draft. It so happened to be a superflex draft, so QBs were pushed up the board. I selected Baker Mayfield as the fifth QB off the board and was met with a simple response in the draft chat: “reach.” That got me thinking… was it a reach, or does Baker Mayfield deserve to be in the first handful of QBs off the board? Is Baker Mayfield a Top 5 QB? First, let's take a look at what he did in his rookie season. Last year in 14 games (13 starts) Baker Mayfield threw for 3,725 yards with 27…
