Schuyler Dombroske: has been a Yankees fan since the early '80's, and has absolutely no remorse about the Boss spending money since he believes, that in no way guarantees any type of success by itself. Schuyler has been playing some form of fantasy baseball since 1987, switching from play-by-mail PTP board leagues to roto-style ball in around 1993. Schuyler still plays Diamond Mind (sort of 2nd generation PTP), roto, Diamond Kings, and STATS Diamond Legends on a reasonably consistent basis. Schuyler lives in Syracuse, NY with his wife, Deena, son Griffin (18), and daughter Kendall (16). Schuyler has been a financial advisor, now with Cadaret Grant, since 1995.
Jurickson Profar - Profar was 0-2 while knocking in the only two Ranger runs yesterday in his first big league game of the year, but more disturbing was the news that Ron Washington wants to split time (in his mind,...
Dustin Pedroia - Pedroia had a single, double, and two walks yesterday to extend his hitting streak to 10 games in the 12-5 win over the Twins. Pedroia is having an interesting season, hitting .341 with a .433 OBP but...
Anibal Sanchez - In a remarkable confluence of luck and skill, Sanchez tossed his seventh straight quality start yesterday to continue his fantastic beginning to 2013. Aside from one outing against the A's, Sanchez has faced a number of middling...
Jedd Gyorko - Gyorko is definitely starting to heat up, as another homer last night gives him 3 to go along with a pair of doubles in his last 6 games. Let's set aside his time at Lake Elsinore and...
Hisashi Iwakuma - That's 6-7 in QS for Iwakuma after a 7 IP, 1 ER outing against Toronto yesterday, and since that 7th start was a 5 IP, 2 ER, 11 K performance against the Astros it's safe to say...
Clay Buchholz - That's six straight quality starts, six straight outings of at least seven innings, and six straight wins for Clay Buchholz after another strong outing yesterday against the Jays. It's curious that his swinging strike% is declining for...
Mike Moustakas - Moustakas is 3-8 with 3 walks and 2 doubles since being benched Friday and Saturday, but is the 24 year old ready to become the 30-HR hitter that we all envision? He's been quite a bit more...
Nolan Arenado - It appears that Nolan Arenado is coming up to take over the Rockies' 3B job, as Chris Nelson was designated for assignment late last night. Arenado is a very solid hitting prospect that has already posted 14...
Daniel Nava - Nava has continued to hit the past few weeks, helping push Jackie Bradley back down to AAA once David Ortiz was healthy, and now appears poised to play most of the time for the Sox in LF....
Tom Milone - Milone picked up win number three on the young season yesterday, allowing two runs on eight hits in 6 2/3 innings, striking out six. His control has been great, as usual, but with 28 runs of support...
Evan Gattis - You can be sure that Gattis is going to be in the lineup almost every day during this hot streak, as with Freddie Freeman on the DL for at least another week Gattis will be slotted at...
Michael Saunders - Another pair of singles to go along with two runs scored and his 3rd steal of the season for Michael Saunders on Monday, as he continues his excellent performance from the WBC into the beginning of the...
Felix Hernandez - Hernandez was brilliant last night, allowing just three hits and a walk to the A's over 7 2/3 innings, striking out 8. There has been a lot of talk about Felix's declining velocity over the past few...
Ronnier Mustelier 3B (NYY) - There are going to be 200 ABs up for grabs, in all likelihood, for players that wouldn't otherwise have received them for the Yankees this spring before Granderson and Teixeira return. The obvious options are...
Gordon Beckham (2B) CWS - After three seasons of disappointment, maybe Gordon Beckham's value has dropped enough now that he will be a bargain once again. Beckham showed the best contact rate of his career in 2012, and ended the...
Mike Carp ,OF - SEA (for now) - It definitely looks like Mike Carp will be heading out of town this week after a marginally surprising designation for assignment last week, and that should put all of us on alert...
Tommy Hanson - Hanson is coming off a 4th straight season of increasing ERA, to go along with increasing walk totals and declining velocity the past two seasons. Combine that with a move to the more difficult league for 2013,...
Jed Lowrie - Lowrie has come off the DL well, hitting in eight straight games in which he received an at-bat to the tune of 300/364/467. We talk a lot about the obvious skills like speed, power, contact ability, etc.,...
Ichiro Suzuki - Ichiro reached base five more times yesterday in the marathon win over the A's, and he's 14-20 with 3 doubles, 2 homers, and 5 steals in the last five games. No Yankee OF is signed through next...
Adam Eaton - Eaton, if I understand the D-Backs philsophy correctly, should still get a bunch of playing time the last two weeks even after Chris Young returns from his quad injury. Eaton has been fairly impressive since coming up...
Johnny Giavotella - The 25 year old Giavotella has hit in six straight after singling and doubling last night against Chicago. It's been a disappointing year once again for a guy that I expected to run away with the 2B...
Brett Jackson - In his last 20 games, Brett Jackson is just 10-55 with 27 K's. On the bright side, Jackson has walked 13 times over that span, and 9 of those 10 hits were for extra bases, which pretty...
Brett Jackson - Jackson homered again last night, extending his modest hitting streak to 4 games, during which he has a double and 3 homers to his credit. He's also walked five times in the past three games (and 8...
Jon Lucroy - Lucroy smacked a pair of homers last night against the Cubs, giving him 8 for the season and bringing his line up to 328/379/554 for the year. The 26 year old has been steadily improving in just...
Andy Dirks - Dirks singled, homered, and walked twice yesterday in the 8-4 win over Minnesota, and he's been playing every day since his return, hitting 378/442/568. Dirks has improved in every facet of his offensive game except speed the...
Michael Fiers - Fiers had his QS streak stopped at 9 last night in Colorado, as the 27 year old rookie allowed eight runs on nine hits in just two-plus innings. Fiers really has been brilliant since his promotion to...
Hisashi Iwakuma - I've been more and more impressed with Iwakuma lately, as the 31 year old "rookie" managed his fifth straight start allowing three earned runs or less last night against the Angels, as he held them to three...
Steve Pearce - This is a total flyer, especially since Brad Mills has already said that he doesn't envision Pearce as an everyday player right now, but a RH hitter with power heading to the land of the Crawford boxes...
Francisco Liriano - Liriano is heading intra-division, as the White Sox took a gamble on the 28 year old lefty, sending Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez, two decent to fair prospects, over to the Twins. Liriano was pasted by those...
Josh Rutledge - Josh Rutledge was only in the minors for 855 AB's, but the Tulowitzki injury has created an opportunity for him to play consistently with the Rockies. Rutledge has hit 368/390/684 in his first 10 games with Colorado...
Michael Fiers - Fiers is, ahem, on fire right now for the Brewers, tossing his 5th straight quality start last night against the Cards in a 3-2 loss. Fiers has allowed 3 runs over 34 2/3 innings in his last...
Franklin Morales - Morales got right back into the win column after his first poor start, holding the Rays to two doubles and three walks over five innings last night. Morales has loads of potential as a lefty with mid-90's...
Neil Walker - Walker reached base for the tenth straight game, going 2-4 with a double and a homer in the 11-2 rout of the Astros. Walker is taking his time heating up this year, but has increased his ISO...
Chris Carter - Chris Carter is back with the A's for his 5th tour of duty, and he's started this one with a bang, going 3-7 with a double and two homers in two games against the Rangers. Carter is...
Yasmani Grandal - The catcher of the future may become the catcher of the present for the Pads, as the struggling Nick Hundley was demoted to AAA, opening the door for Grandal to wrest the backstop role away. Grandal has...
Jason Castro - Castro is 4-7 with a pair of doubles and a homer over the past few days, and there are a few reasons for optimism in the 25 year old's underlying stats this year. Castro was indeed a...
