Fantasy Baseball: Will April Power Bring More Fantasy Showers?
Hello, friends.
It's a wonderful time of year, with buckets of April showers now forcing a bevy of flowers to bloom at our house, whilst tricking any passerby into thinking master gardeners must live there. In reality, we just bought our house from an old woman who really (really!) liked to garden and had virtually everything automated/dummy-proofed. I'm not even kidding - only a bare minimum of maintenance is required and we spend a couple of months drowning in flowers -- but those silly, passersby don't need to know that, do they? Ruse!
April also brought us new showers of power for fantasy baseball; some old faces, some new. I bet you can't guess who is currently leading the league in home-run rate? Psst...It rhymes with "Jorge Polanco". With every flip of the calendar, our sample sizes to separate the useful wheat from the confusing chaff of statistical noise grow ever larger. Particularly in the land of power, as many batted-ball statistics don't require monster pools of data before we can start naming them possibly significant.

Fantasy Baseball: All the Streams Fit to Print
Hello, friends.
We're three (ish) weeks in, but more importantly, the Masters are over, so I no longer have to hear that hack, Jim Nantz, continue to rip off my signature catchphrase.
Streaming pitchers in April can be dicey, and not just because of the actual pitchers available. It's also the fact that our roster spaces are likely very limited, unless you've been beset by a bevy of injuries (he said, staring at a roster that includes Shane McClanahan, Reynaldo Lopez, Ranger Suarez, and Nestor Cortes).

Fantasy Baseball: New Gods?
Hello, friends.
In a sport with as much variance as baseball, there are few highs like those of catching some small-sample lightning early. Whether it's a favorite late-round draft pick currently cashing sleeper checks, or someone you pounced on after they came out of the ether to explode in a way Yoan Moncada only dreams about -- finding early gems is always fun.

Fantasy Baseball: (Mostly) Everything You Need to Know
Hello, friends.
"Welcome back!" he said, staring into a mirror. Apologies for my absence during literally the most inconvenient month of the year; wrist injuries wait for no man. Or, at least, they made this man wait until he could type with less pain. But we're back, baby -- and we're more Nick than ever?
Well, anything interesting happen recently? Ha! That question was a ruse -- in fact, many interesting things have shaken up the fantasy baseball snowglobe of information we were working with all through the draft season. That's the tough thing about early-season fantasy: Is everything noise, or is anything real? What to react to and what to ignore?
