Two-Start Pitcher Rankings for Week 14

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

I hope everyone had a safe and fun Fourth of July weekend. Due to the Holiday weekend, this week's two-start rankings will come with very limited commentary.

Roto Recap: July 1st

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

First I called it the Roto Recap, then I didn't write any for a while. It came back as the Roto Roundup, but I like Recap better, so we'll go with that from now on. Not that you care, but just to clarify. The fantasy news and notes is what you're looking for I presume. Should I call it "Roto News and Notes"? Why am I spending so much time writing this stupid explanation? Brian Fuentes pitched a scoreless, hittless ninth for once...How about that? On to the notes from Thursday....
 

Re-Ranked: Starting Pitchers, Top 60

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

I published a re-ranked top 25 starting pitchers list last week, but after going over the rest of the names on my list I saw that there were changes that needed to be made to the top 25. Instead of two-separate posts, I’ve decided to go ahead and put the whole damn thing together. I’m sure you’ll find some surprises in these rankings. My methods are strongly based on sabermetrics, but I certainly include “real life” issues that some of these pitchers face like innings limitations, age, previous arm injuries, etc.

Roto Roundup: June 29th

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

Nick Swisher gets back in the home run groove and don't look now, but Ian Kinsler might be finding a power stroke of his own. That and more in the Roto Roundup from Tuesday's action.
 

Chase Utley Takes his Struggles to the DL

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

It has been a long season for Chase Utley owners. Projected as a no-doubt first rounder and the top second baseman heading into this season, Utley has struggled to a .277 AVG with only 11 home runs and 37 RBI. Now a bruised thumb has sent him to the disabled list and sent fantasy owners into a state of panic.

Roto Roundup: June 28th

Is the Hot Nolasco Sauce back? Do Jason Bay's two home runs mean he's starting to get the power swing going again? Find out in the notes from yesterday's roundup...
 

Network Server Issues

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

Just wanted to pass along an update on why there has been no content posted since last Tuesday.

The Bloguin Network decided to upgrade their servers this past week. However, the transition did not go smoothly. To put it simply, the company they decided to go with provided some very bad advice and information.

I am going to re-publish any articles that did not show up or got erased last week.

Thanks you for your patience. Regular programing resumes today.
