The season may be in it's final two months, but there is still plenty of time for closer situations to change. Here's a look at some current movement around the league.

Unlike the catcher position, which lacks depth and stability, first base is very deep and filled with players in or around their prime seasons.

I decided to halt my re-rankings since it is already August and most teams have things figured out by now. The great thing about keeper leagues is that whether you're in it or out of it, you still need to keep an eye out for the future. So, today marks day one of the long-term keeper rankings position-by-position.

Every season has it share of surprises and disappointments, but some players play so far below expectation that they are tossed away to the darkest places on your free agent wire or oppositions roster. However, as the season continues marching toward September, some players begin to emerge from the darkness. By the way, what ever happened to The Darkness?
These three players represent the biggest of the busts (think clean thoughts people), but they also represent some hope for a late seasons surge.

Note: I wrote this article for Bleacher Report and while it's not a straight forward fantasy article, I found that the analysis on A-Rod's 2010 season-to-date has plenty of relevance for keeper leagues.
On Wednesday, August 4th 2010, Alex Rodriguez became only the seventh player in Major League history to hit 600 or more home runs and the youngest player in history to reach the 600 home run mark.
Minutes later, no one really cares.
Rodriguez is one of the premier faces of baseball's steroid era. As an admitted user, his stats will forever be looked upon with shadows and questions of validity.
Beyond what A-Rod has done, is what he will do. Without the aid (supposedly) of performance enhancing drugs going forward and closing in on back-to-back sub-par seasons, will A-Rod's future performance be worth the seven years remaining on the 10-year, $275 million dollar contract he signed in December of 2007? Or will this contract, which has him playing at the age of 42, go down as the worst in baseball history?

In an interesting move the Angels have called up one of their top prospects, apparentlyto play center field. Yes, the center field that has been roamed by all-star Torii Hunter since the failed Gary Matthews Jr. signing.
The speedy outfielder is not ultra-hyped Mike Trout, but rather 23-year-old speedster Peter Bourjos.

Yesterday, we looked at the changes to the catcher position. Unfortunately one of the top five listed, Carlos Santana, got injured and is likely done for the season. Let's hope that nothing bad happens to any of these first basemen as the fantasy trade deadline approaches.

It's crunch time in the fantasy baseball season. The trade deadlines are right around the corner and evaluating injuries becomes ever more important. Let's take a look at some of the recent news.

August is here and as we head toward the stretch run it's time to look at where our updated rankings stand. We start behind the dish.

First of all, sorry for not posting any content since Thursday, but I have a good excuse. One of my best friends got married over this weekend and that, of course, takes priority over analyzing baseball happenings. However, there was plenty of fantasy trade talk going on between groomsmen. It sort of felt like our own little winter meetings. Some GM's --you know who you are-- were pushing hard to get a blockbuster done. No deals went down, but there were plenty of good times.
Congrats on a great wedding Steve. When you come back from the honeymoon we'll talk trades.
Now, onto the fantasy baseball stuff...
A couple of weeks ago I released FB365's exclusive RAW Pitcher Ratings, then followed up with an article explaining the reasoning and looking at some high and low scores that were somewhat surprising. There was, however, a small glitch in the last spreadsheet as I didn't paste the altered formula to all of the players. This week, everything is good to go. We'll look at some of the trends from the last update and try and decipher who to buy and who to sell.
You can download the RAW Pitcher Ratings spreadsheet here.
