There are all kinds of strategies to assembling a fantasy football team, but an approach I seem to find myself sticking to across all Fantasy Sports is ensuring to balance my high risk picks with what I consider safe and reliable options. I kicked off my All Reliable QBs and Running Backs already and for the purpose of this 2013 Fantasy Football All Reliable Team,...

This week I want to share a few waiver wire columns that I thought were particularly good as a part of my weekly fantasy baseball preview. I take care of the waiver wire article over at The Fake Baseball and it can be a tough racket! However, roster management is sometimes even more important than your initial fantasy draft, so keeping active is critical. This weeks...

So Gonos zaps me an email, “Hey man, want to host a Fantasy Baseball Awards Show?” and I was all like “For sure, dude, love to.” I didn’t realize that I was going to be handing out quarterly Fantasy Baseball awards for a sport that doesn’t even have quarters! Furthermore, there are no after parties, red carpets or nominees...

Injured quarterbacks are just one of the many news items you have to track during the Fantasy Football offseason. You have to know who goes where in free agency, and figure out which veterans have new competition breathing down their necks after the NFL Draft. So it’s easy to understand when we miss out on an offseason news bite about injured quarterbacks and...

This article will look at the most added players over the last seven days according to ESPN’s calculations (the percentages are current up to Tuesday night). This exercise should be able to allow us to see if some recently successful performances have been authentic or fraudulent. While it may be justifiable to react and pick up several of these recent risers,...

In 2012, we were all atwitter over the arrival of Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon joining Jacksonville. And the year before that, we had Georgia’s A.J. Green having us drool with anticipation. But we...

Earlier this week, I wrote about the luckiest pitchers of the year, but in this article our attention will be pointed toward the luckiest hitters of 2013. In the same way that our previous article used FIP to discover which pitchers have been the luckiest, we will use BABIP as our tool to discover what hitters have received the most assistance from randomness. How...

Tuesday, we broke out the first round of The Usual Suspects 2013 Fantasy Football Mock Draft and today it is on to Round 2!  Last season, the top 2 rounds were filled with teams that likely got mixed up in back-to-back picks as notorious as Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne. That’s right, ‘Dumb and Dumber’ and I’m not sure which one is which,...

It’s May. We are a month into the season, and there have been many surprises. Starling Marte is second on the player rater, and Clay Buchholz is the number one rated pitcher … Wait, that does not sound right. But it’s true. However, while we know better than to believe that Starling Marte and Clay Buchholz will keep up their current pace, it is easy to...
