Fantasy Basketball Fast Break (Week of 1/8)

Welcome to 2018, a year where NBA players finally start staying healthy consistently ... I couldn't even type that with a straight face. We begin the new year with James Harden going down for several weeks. With his injury, now eight of the pre-season top-20 players have missed significant time so far this season. Significant time, meaning more than just a couple of games. When will it stop? Hopefully soon. I'm tired of my phone getting blown up with injury notifications. I get it, half my team is a game-time decision every…

Toronto Acquires Yangervis Solarte from San Diego

Join or start a fantasy baseball league at Fantrax today! Keeper, dynasty, re-draft. Fully customizable. A+ customer service The Blue Jays have traded prospects Edward Olivares and Jared Carkuff to the Padres for infield utilityman Yangervis Solarte. As both rosters stand post-trade, zero fantasy implications are felt. The 30-year-old Solarte, who batted .255/.314/.416 with 18 homers in 512 plate appearances in 2017, is the trade’s centerpiece, but he moves from being a backup in San Diego to being a backup in Toronto.…

Valuing Prospects with New Homes

The calendar has turned to 2018, and the Hot Stove is officially … a bunch of tepid embers. With a majority of the top free agents still unsigned, it’s obvious to say that not much has happened so far this offseason. Sure, the Angels have made some major headlines, but guys like Yu Darvish, Eric Hosmer, Jake Arrieta, and J.D. Martinez still haven’t found a home. And while free agency is always exciting, moving prospects like Christian Arroyo always tends to be pretty exciting in its own right, and the trade front has been…
