Welcome to the All-Star break, which gives us the chance to catch our breath roughly halfway through the marathon of the regular season. Rather than the composite approach we took to our preseason rankings, we're offering tiered rankings for each position. I had planned to name each tier after Coen Brothers films, but Alex Chamberlain beat me to the punch. So even though he doesn't have No Country for Old Men or Fargo as the top tier and is therefore objectively wrong, I'm not going to steal [...]Keep on reading: Fantasy Baseball Midseason Rankings: First Base

Assuming he didn't use up all of his home runs last night, Chris Davis and the Orioles are a high-upside stack for tonight.

A lot can happen in the span of a week. A team can turn a couple of wins into an 11 game winning streak. Several teams can throw a few pitches and start a new rivalry for the season. The way the season is shaping up, it looks like the NL East could be one of the most interesting divisions in baseball after appearing in the offseason to only have one or two teams that could contend. With the Mets rattling off 11 straight wins, the Nationals have to at least be aware of the fact that the divis[...]Keep on reading: MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Power Rankings for Fantasy (Week Three)

What have we here? It's a ranking of the top 30 MLB ready prospects. Some are in the majors and others are working their way to the top level. With the start of the season, there will be two additions to the power rankings. I've added an estimated time of arrival. I will also add the prospect’s stats from the season. The stats will NOT include RBI and R for hitters or W-L for pitchers because those numbers are team dependent. For hitters, I will provide plate appearances, a slash line, hom[...]Keep on reading: MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Power Rankings for Fantasy (Week Two)

To be clear, this list is not the top 30 prospects in baseball. This is a list of the top 30 prospects who are likely going to rise to the major leagues and provide fantasy baseball value this season. The qualifications are simple: a player must not be on an active roster, they must have a clear path to the majors, and while they may have played in seasons prior to 2015, they must still have rookie eligibility. If a player is moved to the active roster of their team, they will be removed from t[...]Keep on reading: MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Power Rankings for Fantasy (Week One)

In a surprising turn of events, no veteran third basemen made the Top Five Dynasty/Keeper list. Veterans like Evan Longoria, Chris Davis, Todd Frazier and Josh Donaldson are too old to crack my top five. Much respect to those guys, but a new generation of third basemen has arrived. Let's take a look.   The Fantasy Future of Third Base 5) Kyle Seager, 3B, Seattle Mariners   Most consider Josh Donaldson a top five Dynasty 3B and for a hot minute, I considered it, but I just don[...]Keep on reading: Top Five Dynasty / Keeper Third Basemen

This article references Chris Davis, Giancarlo Stanton, Jose Abreu and more! BALLER MOVE: Draft ~70th Overall for Huge Power Upside ANALYSIS: Chris Davis is one of the safest power hitters to target in the middle rounds of your 2015 draft. His low average and high strikeout rate make him too risky to grab in the early rounds, but his power potential is undeniable. Davis burst onto the scene in 2012 with 33 home runs and then ascended in 2013 to the fantasy elite with 53 home runs and 42 doubles. In 2015 he struggled mightily to consistently make contact, batting [...]Keep on reading: Chris Davis (1B/3B, BAL) – 2015 Fantasy Baseball Undervalued Asset

Over the last few years in fantasy baseball, the topic of player tiers or tiered rankings has become a trendy way to approach your draft. Often times, in real life, something that is trendy doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best course of action or the smartest idea. It very easily could be something that will be temporary. However, in the case of looking at how to draft your team in fantasy baseball, breaking positions down into tiered rankings m[...]Keep on reading: 2015 Fantasy Baseball Draft Strategy: How To Use Tiered Rankings
