Fantasy baseball blog news and notes
I just saw the list of Home Run Derby participants. How’s this: I’ll take Giancarlo Stanton, and you can have everyone else. He’s going to crush them.
Trevor Cahill’s mediocre outing last night dropped our streaming starter record to 50-39, and officially puts us in a slump. Tonight’s pick is Jon Niese (owned in 35.9 percent of FOXSports.com leagues) against the Phillies, while Wednesday’s choice is Baltimore’s Chris Tillman (0.1 percent owned), who makes his first start of the season in Seattle. Tillman used to be a big prospect, but he’s flopped in a few chances with the O’s. However, he’s still just 24, and had some solid numbers (3.68 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, 92K/30BB in 89 1/3 IP) at Triple A this season. I’m intrigued.
