Fantasy Baseball Insiders History Lesson 2: More Than 40 Home Runs, Less than 20 Doubles

Fantasy Baseball Insiders History Lesson: Lots of Runs, Bad Batting Average

I stumbled upon today's history lesson while projecting Rickie Weeks for next season. The Brewers' second baseman has been a frustrating player to own, landing on the DL six times in the last seven seasons...

2011 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: The Top 15 First Basemen

Just like years past, 2011 is loaded with All-Star first basemen to roster on your fantasy baseball team. Last season, 15 different first basemen hit 25 home runs. That’s not including Justin Morneau, Kevin Youkilis or Kendrys Morales, whose seasons were cut short due to injury. This year, 15 first basemen made my 2011 Big Board, including an astounding eight in the top 20. Bottom line: there’s plenty of pop at the position to go around...

2011 Fantasy Projections, No. 54: Home Runs Aren’t Only Thing About Chicago White Sox’s Adam Dunn That Stands Out

2011 Fantasy Projections, No. 54: Home Runs Aren’t Only Thing About Chicago White Sox’s Adam Dunn That Stands Out

Adam Dunn is an easy player to overlook. If you’ve ever owned him, you know it’s nearly impossible to trade the guy thanks to his .250 lifetime average. On the other hand, only Albert Pujols (294) has hit more home runs than Dunn (282) since 2004. And it’s not like Dunn’s numbers have been up and down since then, either. In fact, he’s been fairly consistent, posting HR totals ranging from 38 (in 2009 and 2010) to 46 (in 2004). Perhaps most impressive is Dunn’s ability to stay healthy. (Fasten your seat belts for this one.) Since 2004, Dunn has missed a total of 26 games. Chipper Jones, on the other hand, has missed an average of 40 games per season during that same time frame...

Ticket Liquidator

Interest is peaking among those who seek cheap tickets to MLB games, especially the stadiums that fill up fast and sell out quick like Fenway Park seats, cheap Yankees baseball games and the big one in July; the 2011 MLB All-Star Game in Phoenix. Before that, though, don't forget to check out these seats at the College World Series 2011. As we head into spring, there are other sports hitting their high notes, including cheap games at the NBA finals, action in the octagon at a MMA Fight Night and other fight tickets including the 2011 boxing schedule.
