Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! Last week, I gave you a breakdown of our TGFBI league’s draft with a write-up on the starters that both The Lineup Builder and I chose from our respective draft slots. That was a pretty extensive breakdown of arms, and I hope it helped you gather up some information about certain […]

I know, I know. Nobody cares about your fantasy team. Except you, dear reader, actually do care about my team, right? Or, at least you care to read about Grey’s teams, and you care to read about Rudy’s teams, and you care to read about other people’s drafts like it’s some literary genre.

It’s not the next War and Peace or even the next Fourth Wing, but I think there’s stuff to be learned from draft analysis. That said, I’m going to be harsh on myself because I think there’s too many fantasy analysts that say, “I just drafted the best team in the universe, I’m making bank on this, I’m perfect.” I’m not perfect and no team is perfect. You can literally rearrange the draft order of a fantasy baseball draft something like a quintillion times. But here’s a team that I’m happy with, and put thought into, and will try to win with. If that helps you, then read on.

Hello there, RazzSlammers! The season has begun to progress in earnest, and it’s time we all take stock of our teams and what help we might need. To the rescue: the Waiver Wire! Unlike “standard” NFBC leagues, we don’t have weekly FAAB runs in the RazzSlam… after all, you drafted 42 players! But, unlike most […]

Good morning, baseball fans! It’s nearly February, which means it’s almost close to time to start considering thinking about baseball! Unless, of course, you’re a fantasy sports degen like myself, in which case, it is already literally baseball season! And of course you are, or you wouldn’t be here! So let’s talk about the biggest fantasy […]

As evidenced by my team’s unceremonious exit from the first round of the RazzSlam playoffs, I didn’t do a great job following baseball this year. Sure, every week I’d put out my beloved, world-famous, award-winning column, Two-Start Dive Bar, but that’s a niche area, a product of and for weekly-change roto fantasy leagues. Apparently, there […]

I remember the day fairly clearly. It was springtime a few years ago and I was out taking the dog for a walk. That welcome and very bright March sun had started to melt away the snow, and I had downloaded one of the podcasts where the guys were talking about the Razzslam and its […]

Greetings and salutations, Razzballians! Do you know what time it is? Time… of year, I mean? I don’t know what time it is where you are, or when you’re reading this. That wouldn’t make sense. I’m not a wizard. But time of year? Do you know what time of year it is?

It’s Cutline time.

B_Don is joined by fellow Razzballer Steve Paulo (@StevePaulo) and Darik Buchar (@DBuchar) from the NFC to talk about the upcoming RazzSlam contest. Steve is our resident RazzSlam writer for the season and Darik is one of our primary contacts, and the two of them are here to go over the details and our draft strategies for the RazzSlam and the Cutline contest in general. We discuss how to handle some of the transitions from roto to the Cutline points set up and how to handle steals, starters vs closers, and other tricky areas. Darik walks us through the offerings from the NFBC this year. Before I let my guests go, I ask them about some of the big free agent signings of the off-season.
