Brewers’ Casey McGehee Punishes Cubs Once Again

Posted: 9th June 2010 by Joe Kleiber in MLB
You think the Cubs regret letting Casey McGehee go? All McGehee has done since the Cubs released him is drive in 111 runs and hit close to .300. He's also driven in six runs in six games against them this year alone. The Brewers caught lightning in a bottle when McGehee became available to them after the Cubs put him on waivers. He was never known as ...
This is the time of year, with nearly a third of the season complete, when you start cutting the guys not producing. Here's looking at you, Carlos Quentin, Gordon Beckham, and Aramis Ramirez. Sometimes fantasy owners can't afford to be patient with some of these guys. Why not add a red-hot slugger like David Ortiz or Jose Bautista? You have to ride hot streaks, because once their ...
This is the time of the year that most trading happens. Owners become impatient with slow starters or don't think guys can keep up fast starts. Here are players to buy and sell before it's too late. Catcher Buy: Brian McCann (ATL) McCann usually gets off to slow starts and this year is no different. He's batting .241 with two homers, nine RBI, and ...

Down To The Wire: Gorzelanny’s On A Roll!

Posted: 10th May 2010 by Joe Kleiber in MLB
There's nothing better than when a young rookie gets called up early on in the season and has early success. We've already seen it this year with Starlin Castro. Castro was called up before the weekend series and all he did was hit .333 with a homer, double, two runs, and six RBIs. Guys like Castro are definitely recommended, but here are other players that ...

Down To The Wire: Ride The Guillen Hot Streak

Posted: 21st April 2010 by Joe Kleiber in MLB
The first two weeks of fantasy baseball have been wild so far and there are plenty of waiver-wire players that can help you for the near future. This is the time of year when fantasy owners panic and drop guys off to slow starts. Already in a few leagues, I have seen the likes of Carlos Lee, Hunter Pence, Brandon Webb and numerous others dropped like flies because they were off ...

Fantasy Baseball Sleepers and Busts 2010

Posted: 4th April 2010 by Joe Kleiber in MLB
MLB Opening day is almost here and fantasy baseball fever is running wild for fantasy owners all over the world. There are plenty of players people love to talk about such as: Alex Rodriguez, Albert Pujols, Ryan Braun, etc. People tend to forgot about players coming back from injury-plagued years or poor production years. There are also players that people go crazy for, who have only had one great year. These are the ...

2010 MLB Predictions: The Yankees Dynasty Continues

Posted: 3rd April 2010 by Joe Kleiber in MLB
 Opening day is almost here and with that comes pre-season predictions.  The Yankees are clearly the favorite to win it all after winning last year and they have only gotten better with the acquisitions of Curtis Granderson and Javier Vasquez. The Yankees' biggest question marks appear to be the oft-injured Nick Johnson, the ageless Andy Pettitte, the inconsistent A.J. Burnett and if Brett Gardner can hold down being the everyday left-fielder. ...

Week 11 Point Spreads Predictions: Back The Bucs

Posted: 22nd November 2009 by Joe Kleiber in NFL
I decided to switch it up this week and go with my predictions with the point spreads. My pick of the week is the Bucs going up against the Saints. The Bucs are +10.5 dogs and the Saints have been in close games back to back weeks. The Bucs are starting to play competitive football with Josh Freeman as their starting quarterback, and every team going up against the Saints will ...

Fantasy Football Thursday Night Prediction: You Can Win With Davis

Posted: 12th November 2009 by Joe Kleiber in NFL
Vernon Davis was listed as a bust before this season, because he never truly had his break-out season. But 2009 has been the year of the tight-end and Davis has been one of the best. Tonight Davis gets the defenseless Chicago Bears defense that has everybody injured. I would start all my Niners and most of my Bears in fantasy football for what should be a high-scoring game. If you are a ...

Week Five Review: Walk Miles To Get Austin

Posted: 12th October 2009 by Joe Kleiber in NFL
I will start off this article by talking about the stud of the week, the play-maker the Cowboys have been looking for: Miles Austin. Here's all you need to know about his game yesterday: 10 rec, 250 yds, and two tds. He set a Cowboys team record and has to be more involved in this offense. If he is still available in any of your leagues, grab him now before ...
