Hey all, Rotoworld Baseball headlines are now on Bluesky!

Not sure I can fix the giant heads since Bluesky is wonky like that, but expect the same comprehensive news and analysis you found at that other place. Also I miss the snarky reactions to our headlines, so it's about time we got here.

If you’re in a league where you can drop bench players who have already played, then I would scoop up the Lions DST. My early defense rankings are loving their spot against J.J. McCarthy, and the Vikings next week.
October 27, 2025 at 10:12 PM
Are the Titans and Raiders DSTs both playable? Can the Packers rebound against the Bengals? Can we trust the Rams after their letdown on Thursday night?

I answer all of those questions in my Week 6 DST rankings, which are LIVE @rotoworld-fb.bsky.social www.nbcsports.com/fantasy/foot...

Everybody talking about “set an alarm” for the NFL London game. That sounds lovely. That game is at 930am. I live on the East Coast and have a toddler

Week 5 Fantasy Football DST rankings are LIVE.

Cardinals and Texans are in the top 10. Bills are not. See who else might be a surprise start/sit @rotoworld-fb.bsky.social

I can't wait for our first "Chris Weber" ABS challenge, when a player angrily calls for a challenge that everybody else knows he's gonna lose, and his team only has one challenge left in the 5th inning.

Attack this tier of WRs in fantasy drafts, we said, and get two guys and flourish:

Calvin Ridley, Jaylen Waddle,
Jameson Williams, Travis Hunter, Chris Olave, Jerry Jeudy, Jakobi Meyers, Matthew Golden.

Was Egbuka/Flowers or bust so far

It’s week 3, and we’re already facing some desperate times in deeper fantasy leagues. Here are a few of my favorite low-rostered players you can start this week. Who is your most desperate play today?
September 21, 2025 at 3:34 PM
Imagine drafting Rashee Rice in fantasy and holding on him on your bench for six weeks since he can’t be put on the IR and then, before he takes the field, the Chiefs trade for Tyreek Hill
September 19, 2025 at 4:09 PM
Had James Cook over Omarion Hampton in my rankings. In my home league draft, I thought “Ah, F it. I’ve gotta get a Hampton share.” Yeaaaahhhhhh, about that
September 19, 2025 at 1:08 AM
If you want a sneaky stash before Thursday Night Football kicks off, add Malik Washington. He has looked dynamic with the ball in his hands, and if Miami falls to 0-3, you have to wonder how long until Tyreek is traded away
September 18, 2025 at 10:39 PM
Lions vs Ravens has the highest O/U this week at 52.5 points. Which low-rostered players could provide you fantasy goodness?

- DeAndre Hopkins: unlikely to get many targets but could score
- Tylan Wallace: played 51% of snaps in Wk 2 & scored
- Isaac TeSlaa: low snaps but a TD threat
September 17, 2025 at 10:49 PM
I guess don’t try and see if anybody is interested in trading for your rookie RBs. Somebody just offered me Stefon Diggs for my Ashton Jeanty
September 17, 2025 at 1:48 PM
Hi, I’m Eric. In my home fantasy football league, I rostered two “high-upside” rookie RBs and my team is hot garbage
September 16, 2025 at 11:29 AM
It’s been just two weeks but is anybody happy they drafted a rookie RB in fantasy right now?
September 14, 2025 at 10:51 PM
Can VEGAS ODDS point to sneaky fantasy football starts?

CIN/JAX has the HIGHEST O/U at 49.5. What low-rostered players can produce value?

- Brenton Strange had 4 catches in Week 1. Could sneak on the TE1 radar.
- Andre Iosivas had 5 fewer routes than Higgins. Deep league dart?
