Macro Trends in RP Value: SVHD (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Like a moth drawn to a flame, I find myself returning to the strange comforts of relief pitcher analysis. In last week’s article, I looked at whether or not there seems to be big-picture movements in relief pitcher value and found that generally, despite the overall vibe shift and changing usage patterns, the proportion of good reliever seasons and distribution among the players accruing these seasons is not materially changing. But – as one commenter noted – what about SVHD (saves + holds) leag
Macro Trends in Reliever Value (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Back again to the bailiwick which is perhaps my least compelling at cocktail parties (and trust me, this is saying something): relief pitcher fantasy performance. A while ago, I looked at whether or not drafting relievers was worthwhile and found, ultimately, that yes, it is worth devoting targeted draft capital to relief pitchers. But one of the outstanding questions from that analysis was whether the composition of reliever performance is changing over time, so that’s what I decided to look in
September Dynasty Rankings: Biggest Fallers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Earlier in the week I covered some of the Dynasty Model’s biggest risers. Here, I’ll move on to presenting some of the model’s spicier takes. As if I were serving up wings in Hot Ones, I’ll go in order from least to most spicy. Hopefully by the end you aren’t left in tears like many of the guests on that show.

With the number 1 pick in the 2026 fantasy draft, the Phlavertown Phantatics select… Wait, sorry, last week I said I was messing with the draft but that’s not what I meant. You could be forgiven though, for having your head turned by the novelty of the recently commenced NFL season. If you’re sitting here reading this though I assume you are a dynasty/keeper sicko and if that’s the case you’re in luck because I’ve got the September 2026 RotoGraphs Dynasty Rankings hot off the press. As has been
Asset Valuation Pt. 4: Messing with the Draft (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After a detour writing a couple articles with cheeky little bits and also a much more extended effort to develop a model for dynasty rankings, I wanted to return more explicitly to my bread and butter: the Asset Valuation series. After my first teaser article, my next three in this series showed how scoring settings can affect player value, and how you can exploit knowledge about these dynamics for your gain. Those analyses, though, held one thing constant: the value of draft picks. To get those
