2014 Philadelphia Phillies Preview

The Phightin’ Philadelphia Phillies provided some hopeful flickers of optimism in 2013, but it will remain a season marked as a low point in the franchise’s effort to squeeze out one more moment of dominance from the World Series core. The negatives hit hard for fans and Fantasy owners alike as we witnessed a future …

2014 Miami Marlins Preview

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 …

2014 Baltimore Orioles Preview

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 RB rankings look deeper than in recent years, but, unfortunately, that's only because there are a lot of veteran running backs that are slowly creeping backwards from 2012 and 2013. Although, I have eight different running backs getting drafted in Round 1 in my early 2014 Fantasy Football Mock Draft. The average shelf …

Peyton Manning, 2012 Fantasy Football Awards

The dust has barely settled on your 2013 Fantasy Football championship trophy, and you're already looking for 2014 QB rankings!?! You're a sicko. You're demented. You're my kind of Fantasy Football player! So we're looking at several months before we really know where all of the players end up playing in 2014, but there likely …

2014 Fantasy Football Mock Draft

Is it ever too early to look at a 2014 Fantasy Football mock draft!?! We're into the new year, and we're ready to put the 2013 season behind us. Whether you won last season, finished in the playoffs or carried home your league's Toilet Bowl trophy as the worst team in the league – we're …

Rod Streater, Week 15 Waiver Wire

If you’re lucky enough to still be interested in Fantasy this time of year, I applaud you. If you’re skilled enough to have earned a bye week this week, the players below could offer some backup off of the Week 15waiver wire. Picking those players up now, before the two winners of the Week 14 …

Eddie Lacy, 2013 Fantasy Rookies

The Fantasy Fatcast boys got together for their regular weekly podcast this week, and we did a quick one-round 2013 Fantasy rookies redraft, just to see what we think of this class now that we're six weeks into the season. We also previewed the Week 7 matchups, which have some interesting games on the docket, …

Last week was interesting for my sleeper picks. That's a nice way of saying that they pretty much sucked. What gives me some hope for future prognostication prowess is that I was close. What does that mean -- and what does that mean for the Week 4 sleepers? I had Chris Ivory picked to do …

Doug Martin, 2013 Fantasy RB Rankings

Do the 2013 Fantasy Running Back Rankings even matter anymore? I mean, we've beaten you over the head recently with quotes on passing statistics, and how the NFL had a record 11 quarterbacks with over 4,000 passing yards last season. So obviously, running backs are about as useful as a Fantasy writer and skinny jeans. …

Brandon Marshall, 2013 Fantasy WR Rankings

As you’ve no doubt been reading over the past few months, the NFL has turned into a mega-passing league, which spills over into the 2013 Fantasy Wide Receiver Rankings. But unlike the quarterbacks position, this vertical explosion has given the wide receiver position depth in the Fantasy third and fourth strings. While the top quarterbacks …
