This wait before the deadline is killing me. As a Reds fan, I am waiting for them to begin the fire sale and see what kind of prospects they can get for players like Johnny Cueto, Mike Leake, Jay Bruce, Marlon Byrd, and maybe Aroldis Chapman. I will also be eager to see some of the prospects that get called up to replace these starters on the big league roster and see what they bring to the table. While these prospects here are unlikely to be called up this season, they have great value as po[...]Keep on reading: Minor League Spotlight: Top Fantasy Prospects from Week 16

Entering the final weekend of the first half, let’s pause a moment and analyze the chances of all the teams in the majors. There seem to be basically three separate tiers of teams. The first contains teams that are clearly playoff favorites. This will be the Royals, Astros, Angels, Nationals, Cardinals, Pirates and Dodgers. Kansas City, Houston, St. Louis and Los Angeles (N) have sort of just survived by playing close to .500 ball after coming out of the gates hot. The Nationals used amazing p[...]Keep on reading: Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 14 (Part 2)

That trade between the Atlanta Braves and the Arizona Diamondbacks is very odd to me. In case you missed it, The DBacks traded an injured and old Bronson Arroya and 19 year-old pitching prospect Touki Toussaint for utility man Phil Gosselin. That Diamondbacks must have seen something that most people don’t in Gosselin. Or maybe they just saw something bad in Toussaint. Toussaint is a very highly touted pitching prospect within the Diamondbacks system. And though the Braves have to eat the con[...]Keep on reading: Minor League Spotlight: Top Fantasy Prospects from Week 11
