Above all, we look forward to seeing you in our Fantasy Baseball Forums for talk about everything from the latest updates to rules issues.
Oh yes - why call a fantasy baseball site a cafe? Aside from the fact that our addiction to fantasy sports is more serious than most caffeine dependencies, a cafe is just the place to meet people and exchange opinions, pick up the latest news, and relax for a little while. You'll have to provide the cappuccino yourself, but we won't be charging $4.89 a cup either: this cafe will be absolutely free.
All the best for a successful and fun 2008 fantasy baseball season,
The Fantasy Baseball Cafe staff

I honestly cannot believe I’m writing a sleeper article on the following pitcher. I watched him stink horribly in Texas, yet I still can’t ignore what he is currently doing after returning home to Los Angeles. This is actually quite tough to type and you might think I’ve lost my mind, but the pitcher I’m referring to is none other than Chan Ho Park. Yes, Chan Ho Park. Before laughing and looking away, let’s take a quick look at exactly what he’s done so far this season and I’ll keep it short. [More]

It’s been awhile since the last installment of this series, but with us reaching the middle of the season, I just had to get this one out there. At this point, most teams have played 80-82 games. That makes it really easy for fantasy players to determine who to move and who to keep. No, I don’t mean dumping guys who traditionally start off a season hot and then tire down the stretch in order to grab guys who traditionally start slow and catch fire the second half. Although that is something everyone should pay attention to. [More]

In my previous article I ranked the Top 10 Year-to-Date 5×5 Mixed League Hitters for the first quarter of the season. In this article I’ll do the same for pitchers. The Sherpa Point system gives each pitcher a score ranging from 0 to 1.00 in each of the 5 standard pitching categories (W, SV, K, ERA, WHIP). Essentially, the league leader in each category is given a score of 1.00, while all other pitchers’ scores in that category are calculated as the ratio of their result to the league leader’s result.
