Clipped Wings
Posted on 29 Aug 2010 by Trevor Stewart.
The Toronto Blue Jays don't have much to cheer about this year; they won't make the playoffs and are in a tough division. They do have Jose Bautista launching home runs on a very regular basis, but other than that it's a little bluer than usual. The other bright spot is SP Brandon Morrow, who has pitched brilliantly at times, and even recently threw a one-hit complete game against the Tampa Bay...

On The Bubble
Posted on 29 Aug 2010 by David Willow.
We’re finally starting to wind down on the preseason and fantasy players are gearing up for the late drafts and scanning the waivers flagging potential pickups. Preseason can make a lot of fantasy owners nervous about some of their picks and other player’s values can shoot up quickly. Sometimes it’s an injury and sometimes it’s underperformance, but to win is to have your ear to the gro...

Fantasy Football Deep Sleepers
Posted on 24 Aug 2010 by Brandon Galvin.
QB: Chad Henne: Chad Henne possesses all of the intangibles to be an excellent NFL quarterback. He is a smart passer with a big arm and great accuracy. Passing behind one of the better offensive lines in the league, Henne is supported by an extremely strong rushing attack. Entering his third year, Henne should remain an effective passer and should hover around a 65 percent completion rate. The ...

Angels in the Infield
Posted on 22 Aug 2010 by Trevor Stewart.
Well, first off let me apologize for my extended absence. I just completed a move from Washington to Nebraska and my fantasy teams and blog have suffered. Never fear, this is my triumphant return. (insert sarcastic comment here) Anyways the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, (which can I just make a note is the most ridiculous name in sports? Just let them stay the Anaheim Angels, they still play i...

TEs and TE sleepers
Posted on 21 Aug 2010 by David Willow.
The tight end position is always a fun filler for the fantasy team. Outside of the top tier guys the position can seem like nothing more than a crap shoot trying to find that next breakout star. Here are some the top tier guys: Dallas Clark – The guy caught 100 passes last season and 10 TDs. That’s wide receiver stats. Antonio Gates – Year in and year out this guy is hover by or going ove...

WRs and WR Sleepers
Posted on 14 Aug 2010 by David Willow.
Now we get to wide receivers. This can be a tough position to get right year in and year out. It’s probably best to look for guys on a pass happy team, but also a guy who is the main focuses of that pass attack. Studying the trends from around the last 6-8 games of last season will help to select a good up and coming WR, but training camp battles can also shed some light on the matter. Though...

RBs and RB Sleepers
Posted on 8 Aug 2010 by David Willow.
Running backs in most league settings will essentially be the bread and butter of your respective fantasy teams. Some important aspects when choosing your RB is to see if their team is a run oriented team, has a good offensive line, has a good offense, and if the RB is a good pass receiver. Having these qualities helps to assure that your back will get the most production and is almost never ph...

What now for Vikings’ Skill Players?
Posted on 3 Aug 2010 by Robert Bode.
As of right now Brett Favre will not be playing for the Minnesota Vikings in 2010. While a return for Favre is entirely possible (some would say probable), I’m going to assume #4 will stay retired, thus leaving Tavaris Jackson as the Vikings’ starting quarterback. So what does that mean for Jackson and the rest of Minnesota’s offensive skill players? Let’s just say Adrian Peterson is no...

QB Sleepers
Posted on 2 Aug 2010 by David Willow.
Well it’s almost time for preseason and that means it’s almost time for fantasy drafts. If you’re not new to fantasy then you’re probably well aware of who the top QB prospects are, and now you’re searching for that sleeper. Let’s go over some of those sleepers you may know of and some you might have overlooked. Kevin Kolb – Kolb is probably at the top of most people’s sleeper p...

Shopping for a closer? Head to the Storen
Posted on 1 Aug 2010 by Trevor Stewart.
At this point in the season, if you have had your relief pitching decimated by injuries or if you just drafted unreliable closers, I have a solution. The Washington Nationals traded their closer Matt Capps to the Minnesota Twins and now they are without a closer. However, the young set-up man Drew Storen has done a masterful job in that role and most likely he will be stepping into the closer s...

You Can-tu it
Posted on 30 Jul 2010 by Trevor Stewart.
Ok this trade deadline is turning the fantasy baseball world upside down. So many moves, some big and some small, some changes have devalued players,but some have increased their values. The prime example of a player whose value has taken an unexpected turn for the better, even amidst his hitting slump is newly acquired Texas Rangers 1B/3B Jorge Cantu. Cantu will most likely be the everyday fir...

Better Latos Than Never
Posted on 25 Jul 2010 by Trevor Stewart.
So it may not be a secret to you that despite the red DL next to San Diego Padres pitcher Mat Latos' name that he is actually not on the DL anymore. Latos threw 6.0 innings today and only gave up two earned runs on seven hits. Latos is 85% owned in all Yahoo Leagues, but he may be available if someone had to drop him due to no more space on their team's roster for a DL spot. If you think he's u...
