Fantasy ball don’t lie...
How bad is the Giants’ offense? Here’s a little fantasy baseball story that’ll tell you. I have Chris Volstad of the Florida Marlins as one of the starting pitchers on my fantasy team. Not my best starter, but he’s productive enough to deserve a spot for now. And since he’s...

Fantasy Baseball Rankings Part 4: Third ...
I apologize for taking so long between fantasy baseball segments. I could blame an avalanche of negative Warriors news, the Manny Ramirez non-story or the Kurt Warner debacle, but those would all be lies. It’s because I knew third basemen were next, and I just feel badly about the position because...

Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Part 3: Secon...

Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Part 2: First...
When I first started collecting baseball cards in 1987, first basemen ruled the Major League landscape. There were six young surefire Hall-of-Famers at first (or so we thought at the time): Will Clark, Mark McGwire, Mark Grace, Fred McGriff, Don Mattingly and Wally Joyner. Hell, maybe even John Kruk...

Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Part 1: Catch...
Drafting catchers in the first four rounds is always dangerous, much like picking a tight end early in fantasy football. Still, Victor Martinez looked like a sure thing last year. Martinez seemed to have the total package — a .300 hitter with 30 homer potential on a supposedly up-and-coming team. (Cue...
