The question is – do catchers in Fantasy Baseball mean just as much to their Fantasy team? You are forced to draft two catchers in Rotisserie (we’re really refer to Head-to-Head …
While most baseball fans are still tingling from the Chicago Cubs World Series win in Game 7 against the Indians, there’s one group of people that have been waiting for Spring Training even longer: Fantasy owners. What 2017 Fantasy Baseball changes do you need to know about before Draft Day?
