Fantasy Baseball: Happy Stabilization Day!

By | at

Hello, friends.

It's finally here. Like a baseball Christmas morning, we can finally say everything matters. No more, "it's just April" or "don't worry, regression is coming" -- none of that couching is necessary anymore. The numbers are in. Or, at least, enough of them are.

The Rubicon has been crossed and there is no turning back because it's officially official, fellow number-nerds...

It's Stabilization Day!

That's right, fellow nerds; all of your favorite fantasy numbers have officially stabilized, with much of the relevant player pool either having crossed or getting ready to cross the necessary thresholds for doing so. Let me explain, completely.

Fantasy Baseball: Dealing With Early Anchors

By | at

Hello, friends.

Ahh, it's almost officially time; I can feel it, deep in my plums.

No, I'm not talking about the time of year when the Chicago White Sox are officially eliminated from playoff contention. Give them some credit, that's still weeks away. Colorado, on the other hand, is officially on the clock.

No, I'm talking about the day when everything, for almost everyone, officially matters. We're so close to Stabilization Day, I can almost taste it.

But, unfortunately, Tom Tango didn't see his shadow last week -- we'll just have to wait a little longer.

Until then, let's talk about what people seem to be most concerned about -- at least according to the questions in our weekly chats (every Thursday at 11 am Central).

Why is *insert name of player drafted in the first five rounds* hurting me so much, and what can I do to get revenge on their horrible, rotten souls*?

Fantasy Baseball: Will April Power Bring More Fantasy Showers?

By | at

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

By | at

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?

By | at

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.
