The Brent Morel Experiment: Replacing Baseball’s Worst Players
Baseball’s superstars are what make the game fun. They are often credited for a team’s success and blamed for a loss, but the fact of the matter is that the best players have similar impact as the rest of the guys in the lineup and in their respective rotations. Baseball is not the NBA wherein usage rates for the games’ best players frequently goes above 40%. Michael...
White Sox Need Help at Third
The Chicago White Sox are one of baseball’s biggest surprises. While the team didn’t have high expectations entering the season, they currently have a .5 game lead in the AL Central.

Brent Morel, 2012 Fantasy Sleeper
3rd base sucks. My apologies to MC Serch and Prime Minister Pete Nice, but it ain’t about y’all! It’s 3rd base for fantasy baseball. And it’s like a raccoon crawled up in your attic and died, then the raccoon’s ghost came back in the form of your dead grandmother and nags you about changing your underwear. Tell your dead raccoon ghost in the form of your dead grandmother...
