MUST TRADE Players Week 13! | Fantasy Baseball 2025

Byron Buxton's health has always been a concern, and with just 61 games played this season, questions loom about his durability moving forward. While his performance this year is impressive—with a .280 batting average, 17 home runs, and 13 stolen bases—his history of injuries makes him a prime candidate for a trade right now. Fantasy owners are advised to capitalize on his high trade value before potential injuries limit his contributions. Trading Buxton could yield multiple reliable players to fill gaps in a lineup, especially for teams looking to secure playoff positions.

Alec Bohm is another name on the trading block. Although he boasts a .290 batting average, his overall contribution to fantasy points is limited, making him a potential trade target for teams needing specific stats. Many owners might not realize how empty his batting average is; if you're not monitoring your roster closely, you may overlook it. Meanwhile, Clayton Kershaw remains a staple despite signs of decline in his velocity and performance; his name recognition might still draw offers. Owners should assess whether to trade him based on their pitching depth.

What should I do if I can't trade a player like Buxton?How do I evaluate a player's trade value effectively?What strategies should I use for trading prospects?How can I maximize returns when trading for a player like Kershaw?

Aaron Judge’s BIGGEST MVP threat + LSU crowned CHAMPS | Baseball Bar-B-Cast
Rafael Devers continues to impress as a powerful force for the Boston Red Sox, hitting a home run against his former teammate Brian Baio during a weekend series against the San Francisco Giants. While the Red Sox faced some ups and downs, including a dramatic game two with a late rally that fell short, Devers showcased his ability to hit home runs anywhere on the field, further solidifying his status as a top hitter. The podcast also recaps the College World Series, highlighting LSU's impressive victory. Coach Jay Johnson's leadership stands out as he successfully rebuilds the team, demonstrating the rapid turnaround potential in college baseball. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Twins struggle continues, suffering a sweep against the Milwaukee Brewers, leaving them with a dismal record. The Brewers, however, are proving competitive in the NL Central, showing resilience and the potential for postseason contention.
What does Devers' recent performance indicate about his future prospects?How do the results from the College World Series impact prospects for the upcoming MLB draft?What implications do the Twins' struggles have for fantasy owners?Which strategies can fantasy owners use to capitalize on the Brewers' strong performance?

Spencer Strider's resurgence is evident as he showcased his elite skills with a stellar performance against the Mets, striking out eight and allowing just one run over six innings. His velocity was back to impressive levels, averaging 96 mph, and he recorded 18 whiffs, primarily from his slider. Meanwhile, Jack Kagleon made headlines with a breakout two-home-run game, hinting at his potential as a power hitter. However, the discussion turned to patience with rookies, as many take time to adjust to the majors. Jacob Lopez also emerged as a strikeout machine, fanning nine batters against the Astros, making him a player to watch. The episode highlighted the importance of scouting and timing in fantasy baseball, especially when dealing with emerging talents and their developmental paths.

What are key fantasy takeaways from recent MLB performances?How do rookie performances affect long-term fantasy strategies?What matchups should fantasy players focus on for the upcoming week?How does a player's minor league performance translate to the majors?

MUST ADD Players Week 8! | Fantasy Baseball 2025

Mick Abel and Zebie Matthews made headlines this week as they made their Major League debuts with mixed results. Abel, pitching for the Philadelphia Phillies, not only impressed with a stellar performance against the Pittsburgh Pirates but also tied the record for most strikeouts in a debut by a Phillies pitcher. With a history of strong minor league stats, he showcased his potential by striking out nine and not allowing a run, making him a prime target for fantasy players looking to bolster their pitching lineup.

Conversely, Zebie Matthews, representing the Minnesota Twins, faced challenges in his debut against the Milwaukee Brewers, yielding four runs in just three innings. His performance raised concerns, especially considering his previous success in the minors, where he held a 1.93 ERA. Fantasy managers are advised to keep an eye on Matthews as he prepares for a forthcoming start against the Kansas City Royals.

In addition, Jordan Romano of the Toronto Blue Jays is stepping into the closer role following Jose Alvarado's suspension. Romano's recent form, including a streak of six innings without allowing a run, makes him a valuable asset for those seeking saves in their fantasy leagues.

Other notable mentions include Jordan Beck, who is showing promise as he contributes significantly for the Colorado Rockies, and Chandler Simpson, a rising star in the Tampa Bay Rays system known for his speed on the base paths. Collectively, these developments provide a wealth of options for fantasy managers navigating through the current season's challenges.

What are the implications of Mick Abel's performance for the Phillies' rotation?Which players should fantasy managers target for saves moving forward?What should be the strategy for picking up emerging players like Jordan Beck?What are practical tips for navigating the fantasy baseball waiver wire?

Dodgers Promote Dalton Rushing, Fun with Rankings, Drop Aaron Nola!? | Fantasy Baseball Advice

Aaron Nola's struggles continue, with last night’s performance against Sonny Gray leading to serious concerns for fantasy owners. Nola's average fastball velocity sits below last year's numbers and his underlying stats reflect a significant decline, raising doubts about him as a reliable fantasy asset. Despite the poor start, owners are advised to keep him in their lineup as drafting him as a number two or three starter leaves little room for panic. Meanwhile, Gray also faced difficulties in his recent outing, suggesting caution in how fantasy managers view him moving forward.

On a more optimistic note, Ryan Weathers showcased impressive velocity upon his return from injury, recording a strong outing that lights up interest among fantasy enthusiasts. Other key developments include Dalton Rushing's promotion by the Dodgers, although his limited playing time indicates he may not provide immediate fantasy value. And with the recent updates on players like Bryce Miller and Ronald Acuña Jr., keep an eye on the waiver wire as teams adjust their rosters.
