I am a father, PE teacher & fantasy baseball writer. Using saber metrics & information to evaluate players & trends is exciting to me."Passion is the oxygen of the soul." Bill Butler

Fantasy Forward: Yankees Gary Sanchez raking in August

August 23, 2017August 24, 2017 Greg Jewett

While the lead could have been Aaron Judge thankfully ending his dubious strikeout streak, which reached 37 games, it was overshadowed by the power surge from his teammate, Gary Sanchez. Last night, Sanchez launched two home runs and drove in four. He has now hit 25 home runs this year Read more

Fantasy Forward: Schoop’s breakout continues

August 22, 2017August 23, 2017 Greg Jewett

Lost in a season focused on prolific home run binges and unexpected breakouts, Jonathan Schoop still flies below the radar. One second baseman last year reached at least 35 home runs with 100 RBI, Robinson Cano. Schoop launched his 27 on Monday night and drove in three, raising his RBI Read more

Fantasy Forward: Injury news back to the forefront

August 21, 2017August 21, 2017 Greg Jewett

For a short time, the injury bug seemed to take a backseat to the Giancarlo Stanton home run binge, Joey Votto’s on-base streak, and Aaron Judge’s strikeout record. Miguel Sano will head to the disabled list with the Twins still vying for a playoff spot playing eight games in the Read more

Fantasy Forward: Nelson Cruz going nuclear of late

August 20, 2017August 21, 2017 Greg Jewett

It’s easy to overlook the production by Nelson Cruz the last four seasons since he reached a new level in Baltimore in 2014, but he’s maintained it the last three years in Seattle. In fact, Cruz seems to be one of the more underrated power hitters in this time frame Read more

Fantasy Forward: Max Scherzer to the disabled list

August 19, 2017August 20, 2017 Greg Jewett

While the daily fantasy players tried to decide between Corey Kluber and Max Scherzer on Friday, the decision became an easy one when Scherzer landed on the disabled list with left neck inflammation. Due to the Nationals pending break in the schedule, it makes sense to give Scherzer time to Read more

Fantasy Forward: All good things must end

August 17, 2017August 17, 2017 Greg Jewett

A rough hump day for major league players on streaks. Giancarlo Stanton’s six-game home run streak ended, though, he did register a 2-for-4 day with a run scored and his second stolen base. He’s focused on trying to reach 62 homers this year, pacing towards 60, it seems within his Read more

Fantasy Forward: Giancarlo Stanton will not stop

August 16, 2017August 17, 2017 Greg Jewett

With apologies, one cannot ignore what Giancarlo Stanton’s doing. He homered for the sixth straight game on Tuesday night and moved his career high to 44 home runs along with the new Marlins team record. Stanton is now tied for the third most home runs, 23, in a 35-game span, Read more

Fantasy Forward: Chad Bettis for the win regardless of any outcome

August 15, 2017August 16, 2017 Greg Jewett

When covering fantasy sports, it’s rare a game garners attention no matter how well a player fares. This happened last night when Chad Bettis returned to the mound at Coors Field after battling cancer. Enduring nine weeks of chemotherapy trumps his outstanding performance on the mound. Bettis threw seven shutout Read more

Fantasy Forward: Corey Kluber extends strikeout streak

August 14, 2017August 15, 2017 Greg Jewett

Corey Kluber’s been dominant since his return from the disabled list, striking out at least eight in all 14 starts since his return. He’s within one of tying Randy Johnson (15 in both 1999 and 2000) for the record and sits third all-time if he does not reach eight strikeouts Read more

Fantasy Forward: Bryce Harper’s potential injury and its ramifications

August 13, 2017August 14, 2017 Greg Jewett

Trying not to overreact to the video of Bryce Harper‘s injury will be tough to do. Without debating if the game should be played or if the field conditions warranted it, Harper suffered his injury hustling to first base. He is a lightning rod for baseball with many fans, and Read more

Fantasy Forward: Another near no-hitter for Carlos Carrasco in the Trop

August 12, 2017August 13, 2017 Greg Jewett

Carlos Carrasco resides near Tropicana Field and loves pitching near his home. A mere 772 days removed from carrying a no-hitter with two outs in the ninth, Carrasco lost his no-hit bid on Friday night in the seventh. But, Carrasco did fire eight shutout innings giving up only two hits Read more

Fantasy Forward: Giancarlo Stanton launches his 39th homer

August 11, 2017August 12, 2017 Greg Jewett

Many wished to see what Giancarlo Stanton could do over a full season the previous two seasons. Bouncing back from his fluky injuries, Stanton is in the midst of a power binge, hitting his 18th home run over his last 30 games on Thursday. Stanton has already surpassed his career Read more

Fantasy Forward: Odubel truthers unite

August 10, 2017August 11, 2017 Greg Jewett

Proving to be a bit streaky and sometimes mercurial, Odubel Herrera is on a hot streak since the start of June. He did end up on many waiver wires when his average cratered to .218 entering game play on June 1st, but he has been rebuilding it along with cementing Read more

Fantasy Forward: Happy 26th Birthday Mike!

August 8, 2017August 9, 2017 Greg Jewett

Not too long ago, this column mused about why Major League Baseball does not promote its stars enough. Kudos on celebrating Mike Trout’s 26th last night with a couple of tweets. Trout not only reached 1,000 hits in this game with a double, but homered for the fourth time in Read more

Fantasy Forward: Manny Machado is back

August 7, 2017August 8, 2017 Greg Jewett

After cratering in the first half of the season, Manny Machado seemed primed to bounce back in the second half. Baseball is a marathon, and while many focus on parts of the season, targeting Machado in trade talks with a frustrated owner made sense. Time has expired with Machado thriving Read more

Fantasy Forward: Stanton’s on a power binge, does anyone realize this?

August 6, 2017August 7, 2017 Greg Jewett

Criticizing major league baseball’s marketing team seems contrite, but when Aaron Judge seemed to be hitting home runs every day for a stretch earlier in the season, the hype train rolled in his favor. After hitting home run number 36 last night and just missing on another, Giancarlo Stanton took Read more

Fantasy Forward: Yu knew a win was coming

August 5, 2017August 6, 2017 Greg Jewett

Tracking the trade deadline with the beat writers, it seemed ominous Evan Grant, the Rangers beat writer, tweeted the team did not issue a statement saying trades were finished. Then the last trade bomb dropped with the Dodgers acquiring Yu Darvish for three prospects not named Alex Verdugo. Darvish turned Read more

Fantasy Forward: Kluber remains dominant

August 4, 2017August 5, 2017 Greg Jewett

Reading a box score, one can infer a strong performance and Corey Kluber turned in another dominating one last night. In Kluber’s complete game against the Yankees he allowed three hits, one earned run, one walk, and struck out 11 with 18 swinging strikes generated. Going deeper into the numbers Read more

Fantasy Forward: More Trout milestones ahead

August 3, 2017August 4, 2017 Greg Jewett

While the Angels continue to waste away Mike Trout’s prime, he is still producing at an alarming rate. Trout hit his 20th home run on Wednesday night in spite of missing 39 games this season. It marks the sixth time he has hit at least 20 home runs prior to Read more

Fantasy Forward: Streamlining to seven notes of interest

August 2, 2017August 3, 2017 Greg Jewett

Trying to recap all the game information can be time-consuming. In an effort to keep the column going along with making the lives easier of the writer and editor, the daily recaps will center on seven notes of interest in order to keep things fresh and stay on top of Read more
