Fantasy Baseball: Replacing Giancarlo Stanton

Photo courtesy of d-deee. A dismal Miami Marlins season just got worse. The team has placed Giancarlo Stanton on the disabled list and according to Joe Frisaro of MLB.com, Stanton will likely miss the better part of a month, if not more. To be honest, I’m not sure things can get much worse for the Marlins, though we’re about to find out. But for fantasy owners who already haveâ...

Oakland Bombers: Moss & Carter

Don't look now, but the Oakland Athletics are 46-43 and have been getting solid pitching all season long and recently some offense too.  A big reason for the offensive outburst is the longball, and two guys knocking their fair share of homeruns are Brandon Moss and Chris Carter.  Both are considered "washed-up" prospects that never panned out, but are producing now...
