MLB Trade Scenarios: 5 Teams Who Should Pounce on Zack Greinke

As we near the start of spring training and the 2012 regular season, we start to analyze players to see which will perform well, which will perform poorly, which will stay put and which will be traded.  We make projections and predictions and try our best to single-handedly determine who will walk away eight-and-a-half months from now with the trophy.  We're usually wrong, but we try regardless ...

Fantasy MLB Fan: Will Buster Posey Remain Healthy and Return to Form?

Buster Posey is going at an ADP of 54, which given his leg and ankle injuries just seems far too high for my liking. All reports so far seem to indicate that Posey will be ready and good to go for spring training, but that doesn't mean he'll stay healthy, as the catcher...

Fantasy MLB Fan: Can Joe Mauer Return to Form?

Who Should You Choose to Start a MLB Franchise?

We have all thought about it. If you could pick one player to start a franchise, who would it be? Everybody has their method. Some people want youth to be the foundation of their team for years to come, others want a veteran with experience to start their team. There is also a debate over pitcher or position player. Which one is really more important to a team? An ace, like Justin Verlander, or ...

MLB Free Agency: Every Team's All-Time Epic Offseason Failure

During the offseason MLB teams are willing to go out and spend big money on free agents. There have been times when these deals have not worked out for the teams. While there have been a number of free agents that have been outstanding, there are a number of signings that teams would like to forget. Some of these signings cost teams tens of millions of dollars. Injuries derailed some players ...

MLB Power Rankings: February Predictions and Rankings for All 30 Teams

February is not the time to try to build a winner through MLB free agency or trades. Though Roy Oswalt, Edwin Jackson and Yoenis Cespedes remain on the open market, only the Boston Red Sox, Kansas City Royals and Miami Marlins are really positioned to reap huge benefits from one marginal addition. With fewer than two weeks separating us from Spring Training, there remains time for teams to make ...

@AdamSchefter I'd pay to see pros play a mid-season flag football (no injuries) game. Market a mid-season all-star wknd like MLB, NHL & NBA.
