Tom Haberstroh and Dan Devine have unearthed the data that shows Indiana is NOT to be messed with. The Big Number guys explain how the Pacers laid waste to the #1-seed Cleveland Cavaliers, and likely won’t be stopped anytime soon. Plus the guys ask the question, would Nico Harrison ever, shockingly, consider trading the #1 overall pick? What caliber of superstar would need to be offered to the Mavs’ GM for him to come off of Cooper Flagg?!? The guys think Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks may convince Nico to do the unthinkable (again)!

Most every week, Scott White will highlight some of the more notable changes to his rest-of-season rankings. You'll find said rankings here and are urged to bookmark them if you haven't already. There's no better resource for gauging player value throughout the long season. You could ask 100 people what the weakest position in Fantasy Baseball is and get the same answer. Or maybe not, actually, because the answer is so obviously catcher that most respondents would presume you mean "aside from catcher." But something is happening at catcher this year. In leagues that require only one, there are way too many quality options to go around. The issue is exacerbated by the recent promotion of Moises Ballesteros, an impressive hitting talent who was batting .368 at Triple-A. He's arriving not long after Agustin Ramirez, another top catcher prospect who […]
