Im happy Emilio Pagan is going to close games again. That makes him more than 12-team viable.

But he has a 3.60 ERA in cincy last year (1.88 on road)

56% fly ball rate. 9.1 BRL. GABP.

Eek.

But... the swing and miss is there to help, so im not fully out for #FantasyBaseball

Some bats really salvaged/gained their 2026 #FantasyBaseball values in the 2nd half last year.

I discuss Jakob Marsee, Daylen Lile, Michael Harris II, George Springer and Bryson Stott.

Who am I buying? Selling?

ICYMI - Larry Vannozzi (@LarryV86 on X) examined the 2026 Philadelphia Phillies for #FantasyBaseball!

Kyle Schwarber's spectacular season, the decline of J.T. Realmuto and the disappointing seasons from Alec Bohm and Nick Castellanos are just some items discussed in this deep dive!
December 3, 2025 at 2:12 AM
Welp. Some reports say the Mets may still bring back Edwin Diaz. #FantasyBaseball managers will need to hold their breath on this one.

Devin Williams, I think. Is still an elite closer. I really was hoping he would land a closers job.

He still may have...

We shall see.

Going through my SP ranks right now.

And.

Im going to be drafting Cole Ragans a TON in 2026.

3 elite whiff offerings in arsenal (change, knuckle curve, slider).

I bet heavily he will get his BRL rate under control.

I just love him.

Am I the only one wanting to slightly fade Yoshinobu Yamamoto strictly because he threw 210 innings (playoffs included) after only 108 in 2024?

Like from SP4 to like SP6/7 kind of fade. Not drastic but enough were I probably wont be drafting him.

Ryan Helsley to the Orioles is a sigh of relief for his value in #FantasyBaseball

He is a top-12 closer closer now landing in Baltimore.

One year of elevated barrel and hard hit numbers are hard to read too much into. They look like an outlier.

I'm buying the swing and miss.

Wanna extend a gracious and heartfelt thanks to everyone who has ever listened to me on the Fantasy MLB Today Podcast, read my stuff at Sports Ethos, or just follows me on here.

And I hope everyone in the #FantasyBaseball community has a great Thanksgiving!

Very very intriguing deal here.

For #FantasyBaseball, this deal is a lateral move for Dylan Cease. He is a much better arm than his 4+ ERA would suggest. Potential ace.

For real baseball, this is great news for other FAs like Framber Valdez. The market seems red hot.
November 28, 2025 at 3:33 AM
Solid deal on both ends.

Sonny Gray continues to have excellent K-BB. And if he can get back to 47-50% on the ground balls and keep the barrel rate from getting higher, this could be even better.

Fitts is a solid back of rotation arm, Clark is a high-upside (and risk) prospect

Great news for Raisel Iglesias in #FantasyBaseballl

He should be the closer and should be considered a top-10 fantasy option.

#FantasyBaseball projections systems are super important in a managers prep for draft season.

And finding players who you think are going to outperform those projections is critical to winning the draft.

Tune in to get my very early choices to do outperform current projections

LOVE this for Brandon Woodruff.

Stays at a great park.

Good team.

Im all in on him for 2026 with that new cutter under cutting any worry from a loss of 4-seam velo.

This isnt a perfect comparison but the Nationals hiring Blake Butera (33 y.o) as their manager reminds me of the Rockets bringing on a young, player-development type of head coach in Stephen Silas.

He won't be the manager when the Nats get good but he should help them get there.
November 17, 2025 at 6:59 PM
My knee-jerk for the Josh Naylor deal for #FantasyBaseball...

Meh.

Good for his steals potential as we know the Mariners will turn him loose.

The park is far from ideal but he has a good K/BB numbers and the average should be fine.

Power is capped at like 20 HR IMO.

I like Grayson Rodriguez as a fun upside draft pick.

Currently going outside the top 300 in early NFBC drafts but the cost is most likely going to sky rocket as draft season goes along.

He is a standard 12-team pick for sure IMO.

November 16, 2025 at 5:31 AM
I think there is so much value to be found in picks 76-150. Multiple potential first/second/third round potential dudes are going in these rounds in early NFBC #FantasyBaseball drafts.

Tune in to see who caught my eye!
