Will the 2014 Miami Marlins be much different from the 2013 version? It’s not surprising that, after trading away nearly all of the franchise’s Fantasy worthy talent before the start of the season, the Miami Marlins finished the year at the bottom of the NL East. However, losing 100 games didn’t stop the 2013 version …
Before we get into the 2014 Boston Red Sox, let's look back at last season. You don’t win the World Series without ample talent, and the 2013 Boston Red Sox were no exception. Their championship roster was anchored by the only offense to surpass 800 runs (853), and they scored 7.2% more runs than Detroit’s …
Last year, Fantasy Baseball owners were thoroughly disappointed by the production they got from the recently acquired B.J. Upton. With the letdown and the hole that B.J. Upton left in the lineup with his lackluster performance, other players emerged and broke on to the scene. Evan Gattis and Chris Johnson had career years and both …
The 2014 Fantasy shortstop rankings are quite different than they were about 10 or so years ago, when players like Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter and Miguel Tejada were fighting for the top spot. Shortstop is a position which has long been considered scarce. Don't get me wrong -- it is still scarce, but some nice young …
In 2012, the Orioles had baseball's most unlikely playoff run. In 2013, they didn't have as much success, but they did have a handful of Fantasy Baseball studs at the plate. Also, last season, for first time since Mike Mussina sported an Orioles cap, they had a legitimate front-end-of-a-rotation-type pitcher in Chris Tillman. This past …
The 2014 Catcher Rankings might not be the sexiest place to start our season rankings for each position, but then again, I think chunky Christina Aguilera looks better than the skinny version. So what do I know about sexy!?! Many of you that know me know that I'm a huge fan of the catchers position. …
Welcome to the 2014 Texas Rangers Preview! Last year could only be described as a disappointment for Texas Rangers’ Fantasy Baseball fans, as they went from No. 1 in team batting in 2012 to No. 8 last year. However, not all was lost as Yu Darvish finished as the AL runner-up in the Cy Young …
Sure, I know what you are thinking when you read 2014 Fantasy Baseball: Second Basemen Rankings. "Seriously? This early?" Well, sure it may seem early, but in many cases it's not. I am personally drafting in three leagues right now! So, last week when I was scraping my car in record time because it was -32 …

We are starting with Tigers' top prospect Nick Castellanos. Enjoy, and feel free to comment below, or even request more Prospects as well. There …
This post will wrap up our series on 2014 Fantasy Baseball busts. We’ve looked at outfielders, infielders, starting pitchers, and now we will examine closer busts. As a supplement to this discussion we will look at the velocity loss leaders from 2013 at the end of the post. More so than any other position in …
The holidays and the year 2013 are officially in the rearview mirror, but there is no slowing the 2014 MLB offseason. After a lengthy break from writing and most things Fantasy (except for Daily Fantasy Sports, I can't quit that) I am back to recap a few more winners of the Fantasy Baseball offseason. A …
We looked at outfield busts two weeks ago and infield busts lasts week, while our attention will turn to the biggest starting pitching busts of 2014 this week; we’ll look at closer busts next week. (If you read the previous two articles you can skip the next two paragraphs, which describe how we define a …
