Positions to Prioritize: Statistical Scarcity Breakdown

Position scarcity is a big topic of debate every fantasy baseball season. Not all positions on the baseball diamond are created equal, and they often give us quite different arrays of offensive production for fantasy purposes. In this post, I will take a close look at what's going on at each position by the projections […]

Kevin Gausman: 2022 Fantasy Baseball Bust?

One of the best picks in 2021 drafts turned out to be San Francisco Giants pitcher Kevin Gausman. He pitched like a bonafide ace for most of the year, beating his ADP by a dozen or so rounds. He rode that great season to a new contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, who signed him […]

Jon Anderson's Catcher Tiered Rankings and Projections

Catchers, catchers, catchers. Everybody's least favorite position for fantasy baseball. This year, the position is a bit more interesting.

Jon Anderson's First Base Tiered Rankings and Projections

It is very important to have a feel for how each position is shaking out from a high level before you start a draft. Having positional rankings is great, but having tiered positional fantasy baseball rankings is even better. Throughout February, we will be going over each MLB position and showing you our rankings tiered […]

Jon Anderson's Second Base Tiered Rankings and Projections

The second base position has long been a wasteland for fantasy purposes. For whatever reason (maybe there's no reason at all and it's just random chance), the least exciting athletes seem to end up playing this position. You can typically squeeze a lot of batting average and even some steals out of here, but you […]

Jon Anderson's Third Base Tiered Rankings and Projections

We're really getting close to the draft season now, and we're firmly on our way through the different positions, ranking and tiering off the top-300 or so players. Today, we look at third base. Typically, this has been a pretty heavy position full of big-time hitters. The top of the ranks is still that, we […]

Improved Hitter K% vs. Power Production - Fantasy Baseball Risers

There are plenty of different ways for a hitter to improve at the plate. We see dozens of players every year who make huge improvements at the plate, and it's very important for fantasy managers to identify these hitters earlier than the field does. Sometimes these improvements can be driven by luck, sometimes by a […]

Starting Pitchers Home Run Luck Analysis for Fantasy Baseball

The three best predictors of earned run average turn out to be strikeouts, walk, and home runs allowed. These are the three components of most advanced ERA metrics (like FIP, xFIP, SIERA, etc.). Adding on stats into these ERA prediction models can help accuracy a bit more, but most of the heavy lifting is done […]

Pitcher Predictability Analysis for Fantasy Baseball

There are different ways to have success as a pitcher. You can have wipe-out stuff, pinpoint command, superior deception, or an arsenal of different pitch types that make it tough for a hitter to see what is coming next. The best pitchers will have all of those things going for them. For this fantasy baseball […]

Batted Ball Data Analysis - How Consistent Are GB%, LD%, and FB% Year To Year

When we are evaluating hitters, we talk a lot about batted ball profile. When we're talking about this, things like launch angle and ground ball rate are cited quite often.

Pitch Count Analysis for Fantasy Baseball - Analyzing Last Year's Starting Pitchers

A few things that have been rising rapidly in the last 20 years of Major League Baseball: revenues, player salaries, and the use of data analytics. These three things working in conjunction have led most Major League teams to be very careful with their starting pitchers, especially their best ones. We have seen both total […]

Which Cody Bellinger Will We Get In 2022?

Cody Bellinger had one of the better seasons you will ever see in 2019 at the ripe age of 24 years old. In 660 plate appearances, he smashed 47 homers and drove in 115 runs while scoring 121 times and posting an elite slash line of .305/.406/.629. He was just 24 years old at the […]

Key Fantasy Football Data from Week 15

There are just a couple of weeks left in the season, and most leagues are probably into their playoff weeks now. It has been a whirlwind of a season, and I think we're all hoping next year brings a little bit more normalcy. Week 15 was no exception to the weirdness of the year, as […]

Another whirlwind week in the books as we barrel towards the fantasy football playoffs.

Jon Gray to Rangers - Fantasy Baseball Impact Analysis

The Texas Rangers are spending some money this month, making multiple big-time splashes in free agency already. One of their smaller splashes was the signing of Jon Gray, whom they signed to a four-year contract in late November. It is looking more and more like the Rangers will have an above-average offense in 2022, so […]

Kevin Gausman to Blue Jays - Fantasy Baseball Impact Analysis

The Toronto Blue Jays scored the third-most runs in Major League Baseball in 2021 while leading the league in home runs by a huge margin. Despite the clear successes on offense and finishing 20 games above the .500 mark, the Jays missed the playoffs after landing fourth in their division. The main reason this team […]

Byron Buxton 2021 Year-in-Review

Flashback to May 7, 2021. Major League Baseball had five full weeks in the books, and no player was looking like a better late-round draft pick than Twins centerfielder Byron Buxton.
