Much to my frustration, the tables below will never be perfect. Pitchers expected to do well will get blown up. Offenses you expect to pile up runs will be frustratingly flummoxed by forecasted f...
Injuries are the worst. That isn’t exactly breaking news, I know. But you know what else is the worst? Rain. Oh, sure, farmers will tell you we need it in order to grow the crops that allow us ...
Alright, here we go. Last week was like the first batch of cookies out of a new oven using new baking sheets. It was alright, but there were kinks to get sorted out. We’re good now. Dialed in a...
Hi, everyone! I’m Jeremy, but my friends call me the Latch-Key Kid. Does that have to do with my last name? Yes. Is it because when I came home from school my parents were still at work and so ...
We have arrived at the penultimate week of the MLB season. After this, there’s just one more. I’ll be honest, if you’re in H2H, it’s been over a decade since I played that format, so I’...
Hey there, Barflys! Here’s your set of Two-Start Pitcher tables for the coming week. We’re well into the home stretch of fantasy baseball, I believe we’re about to kick off the 23rd week of...
Better late than never, right? Luckily for me it isn’t Patriot’s Day, so there is still time to get this info to y’all. Thanks for understanding, Barflys. This week’s Low Point of Referen...
Welcome back Barflys! We have just a few installments of this column left to go this season, but in last week’s comments section, LenFuego said: I think it would be way more useful to have a po...
Hello there, Barflys, and welcome back to the Two-Start Dive Bar! I always try, and usually fail, to come up with some witty anecdote or interesting thing to say as an introduction to the tables,...
Welcome back, Barflys! I’ve got your tables for the week below, so check them out. You’ll forgive me if I’m a bit distracted this weekend, as another of my favorite sports kicked off its se...
August is in full swing, kids are going back to school, and the MLB trade deadline has come and gone. If you’re a casual fantasy baseball player and not doing well this year, then you’ve by n...
August is upon us! The penultimate full month of the MLB season has arrived. Is your fantasy team like the Orioles, shocking the league and destroying everyone’s expectations? Is it like the A�...
Welcome to– what is this, the 17th week in the MLB season? Something like that. Welcome to the end of July! That’s for sure. Just over two months left in the season, best ball tournaments hav...
Welcome back, Barflys! Hope you all enjoyed the All-Star Break. I know I sure enjoyed the chants of “Sell the team!” when Brent Rooker of the A’s got up to bat during the ASG. Good times, s...
Greetings and salutations, barflys. In a couple days, I’m sure the majority of you will be grilling hotdogs, attending parades, drinkin’ brewskis, maybe seeing some fireworks or– here’s a...
We’re fast approaching the All-Star Break, meaning we’re close to kicking off the unofficial “Second Half” of the MLB season (though every team will pass 81 games played before the ASB ar...
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. I’ll be spending today with my kids, and with my own dad, as we venture out to the Coliseum to see the A’s play the Phillies. Most years when w...
Hey there Bar patrons… I’m on vacation in beautiful Lake Tahoe with my family this weekend, so I’m going to make this one short and sweet. Spencer Strider is your single-start Point of Refe...
Happy June, Dive Bar Patrons! We are just about 1/3rd of the way through the 2023 season. If you’ve been hanging on to players you spent draft capital on, but who haven’t worked out, it might...
The Dive Bar giveth, and the Dive Bar taketh away. We’ve had a few good weeks here, with a lot of great choices when it comes to two-start pitchers for your weekly-change leagues. This week, th...
Welcome back to another installment of the Two-Start Dive Bar! Some weeks I sit down to write this column, and I have something specific in mind to say, like “Happy Mother’s Day”, or “F*c...
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, mas, mothers, mommies, grandmas, step-moms, mothers-in-law, and other assorted mother-figures out there in the world today. If you’re “mom” to someone,...
Happy Sunday, Barflys! Welcome back to another edition of the Two-Start Dive Bar! This week’s tables look a lot different from last week’s tables, and there are many more very good reasons to...
Lots of very familiar names in the Top Shelf this week, and at least one very unfamiliar name. Mason Miller, of my beloved-slash-abhorred Oakland A’s, gets a start in the Coliseum and one at Ka...
I’ve been an Oakland A’s fan since 1985. My family had season tickets from the time I was in kindergarten until about the time I was in high school, in the mid-90s, which happened to coincide...
Plenty of good options in the Dive Bar this week, but a lot of pitfalls to watch out for. There are a dozen players up on the Top Shelf this week, and I know everyone comes here to have me let th...
Hello there, and Happy Pagan Spring Equinox / Fertility Festival to those who celebrate! I’m also being told there is another holiday today that only kinda involves bunnies and eggs, and so a H...
Hey hey hey, barflys! Welcome back to the Two-Start Dive Bar, all fresh and ready, and given just a cursory once-over of “cleaning” (after all, this is a dive; the carpet still sticks to your...
Well, here it is. The final Two-Start Dive Bar of 2022. I hope everyone enjoyed this column. I hope it helped you make some tough calls. I hope it sometimes made you chuckle. I hope it made you t...

As we inch nearer and nearer to the end of the fantasy baseball season, there seem to be more and more clunkers down there in the Bar Mat. Lots of potential land mines here, double-dippers with a...
