Lately I’ve been getting emails from some of you that have been second guessing some of your latest deals. Maybe it’s because there’s so much player movement in the majors, maybe your trade deadline is approaching and you want to make sure of your team, or maybe you’re just suffering from some early buyers’ [...]
As the real GMs of Major League Baseball go about their routine business, trading players like so many stocks on the market, fantasy baseball GMs are scrambling around, trying to recover from the fallout, and are looking to keep their squads running like fine-tuned machines. The problem is, for some, that there’s really only [...]
With all of the player movement we’re about to see over the next few days, it’s difficult to determine who’s really on their way up and who’s really on their way out. Take the recent news that Cliff Lee and Ben Francisco were dealt to the Phillies. I think Lee’s value gets a big boost while [...]
As we’ve discussed in previous posts, the MLB Trade Deadline (July 31st) brings plenty of excitement, but plenty of anxiety as well. Owners of Matt Holliday were ecstatic to see the slugger go from the nightmare that is Oakland to much greener pastures in St. Louis, but what about owners of Rick Ankiel and [...]
It becomes real easy to start losing track of players the further you get into the fantasy season. Not so much that you’re losing track, but that you’re not as familiar with some of names that now inhabit the boxscores.

I’m not sure how many years ago it was, but I once had this plan to go with only Latino players for one of my fantasy leagues to see just how it would work out. Gone from my squad were the likes of Billy Wagner, Paul Konerko and Roy Oswalt while guys like Manny Ramirez, Vladimir [...]
One of the perks of spending my days writing is that I get to have baseball on the TV in the background. What a gem that I got to witness today as the White Sox’ Mark Buehrle hurled a perfect game against the Tampa Bay Rays. I own him in one of my primary leagues [...]
As we’ve seen over the past few weeks, the rumor mill is churning out some very interesting scenarios for the upcoming MLB Trade Deadline and it’s making fantasy baseball GMs reach for the nearest bottle of Pepto Bismol. There’s a week left for the non-waiver trade deadline and then the unofficial waiver trade deadline [...]
Being less than a week into the second half of the season, I was hoping to save this edition of the Fantasy Baseball Complaint Department for atleast another week, but with things transpiring the way they have in the post-All Star Break moments and a little nudge from one of Rotobuzz’ most loyal readers, [...]
