MLB Value Index - August 1

The trade deadline has come and gone. My boy Yu Darvish is no longer a Ranger, shipped to the Dodgers for a handful of prospects. A few other mid-tier to minor transactions took place, but nothing more noteworthy than the departure of Yu from…

MLB Value Index - July 14

Oh thank god.... Baseball is back. It was only 4 days, but damn was it a long four days. I played WNBA and CFL in its stead, along with a watered down PGA field, and it still didn't fill the void. Maybe I have a problem, eh? Anyhow, who…

MLB – Industry Expert Consensus – August 5th

The expert’s picks for tonight’s 15-game slate are all over the place. I don’t remember a slate that was so spread out. Many positions only had two players that were selected by at least three experts so I have expanded most of the hitting…

MLB - Industry Expert Consensus - July 15th

An afternooner at Wrigley leaves us with 14 games on this "Welcome Back MLB" Friday evening slate. Don't know about you but I could not be happier to have baseball back in my life. Now is where the stretch run begins and with the trade deadline…

MLB – Industry Expert Consensus – July 6th

Here is the Industry Expert Consensus picks for tonight’s eight-game slate. It looks like the experts are loading up on the Blue Jays hitters again tonight after a successful night from Josh Donaldson and company last night. On the pitching…

BvP for MVP - July 1

Happy early Fourth of July! American Independence Day is a great day for baseball and I can't wait to be sitting around the house with family and food and watching day baseball. I certainly enjoy it before the worst week in sports rears its…
