Cincinnati Reds third baseman Eugenio Suarez and outfielder Jesse Winker are not in the starting lineup on Saturday. Kyle Farmer draws the start at the hot corner and will hit eighth, while Matt Kemp is in left field and batting cleanup against Pirates starting pitcher Trevor Williams. The Reds lineup as a whole has struggled early on this season, so they're looking to change things up to get on a roll. [...]

Before listing the three National League outfielders destined for breakout seasons, its best to define what I classified as a breakout candidate. I decided to choose players that fantasy owners have seen on the waiver wire over the past few seasons. Perhaps these players have even found their way onto a roster or two.However, it is this upcoming season in which they will contribute to a fantasy team in a significant way for the first time. That means no rookies such as Nick Senzel or Victor Robl[...]

As we enter the final stretch for drafting it is time to take a look at the latest iteration of points leagues rankings from our amazing hard working rankings staff. Starting with the outfield is always fun because there is so much depth at the position, especially if you only require three of them, as many points leagues do. However, even if your league has switched to five outfielders there is still a lot of value, both within the top-60 at the position and below.Points leagues are always toug[...]

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jesse Winker turned in a big game against the Cleveland Indians in Cactus League action on Saturday. Winker, hitting leadoff, went 2-for-3 with two homers and three RBI in an 8-5 loss. The 25-year-old is having a slow spring, hitting just .159 with four homers and eight RBI, but he is still widely expected to open the season as Cincinnati's leadoff batter. [...]

For those fantasy enthusiasts that love the head-to-head competition and being able to trash talk their friends every week, the points league is the ideal setup. For the casual player in this format, its common to unknowingly draft using a standard top-300 list from a magazine or website. These lists base themselves on roto formats, and depending on which league you are participating in, there is a contradiction in value.For batters, the roto leagues value hitters more for their stolen base abil[...]

As we get set for the 2019 MLB season, it's time for our crack staff to reveal their favorite preseason sleepers.We recently polled some of our fantasy baseball writers to get their take on which hitters and pitchers they are targeting the most in the mid-to-late rounds of fantasy drafts. [...]

Oh yeah. You knew @Roto_Dubs was closing this bad boy. After all that soft cheddar you gotta bring that Jordan Hicks FIRE in the ninth!I kid, my colleagues are MOSTLY terrific (*sideways glance at Kyle*).Love doing these every year, no matter how tragic the final results are.This series is a chance to take our unfulfilled desires and hopeful predictions for the coming season and then take them to a place that nobody would expect.Is this list mostly based on my own personal affinities and disdain[...]

We continue our fantasy baseball tiered rankings analysis with a look at the star-studded outfield position[...]

The hunt for the next breakout player is a never-ending quest for fantasy players. Identifying and acquiring even one of those players can pay huge dividends throughout the course of a single-season league and even more so in dynasty and keeper leagues. Unfortunately, this quest is shared by all fantasy players, so the window of opportunity to get these players on your fantasy teams is small.That being said, there are always methods to get an edge. Some players who are primed to break out are ea[...]

I'll openly acknowledge that I don't really do bold predictions.I sit, read, think, and then watch the players play. If I see something, maybe I'll write an article.But in the spirit of fun, I've put together my own version of 10 Bold Predictions that will definitely, almost probably come to pass. Paul DeJongis a top-ten shortstop and top-100 playerHere's my position: Your team would be better if you built your strategy around getting Paul DeJong at his current cost. Right now, no other pla[...]
