Victor Martinez managed to tear his ACL yesterday during agility drills. If he is out for the season, as is expected, he leaves a huge hole behind for Tigers, their fans and fantasy players. Let’s get into this a little more in depth, shall we? He played great for the Tigers last year. In 145 …

Draft Day: Kansas City Chiefs
Moving right along, we have the Kansas City Chiefs now up. Injuries really hurt this team this year losing both Eric Berry and Jamaal Charles early to season ending ACL injuries after Tony Moeaki went down with the same injury before the start of the season. Then they lost Matt Cassell in the middle of …

Draft Day: Buffalo Bills
For the next in the series, we have the Buffalo Bills. After also having a very fast, hot start, they cooled off shortly after the Ryan Fitzpatrick contract extension. But he wasn’t really the cause of their downfall. That would be the defense. And because of that, my mock for them is very heavy on …

Draft Day: Cincinnati Bengals

They surprised a lot of people with their 9-7 record and a playoff berth thanks to some great play from their rookie QB Andy Dalton and phenomenal play from their rookie WR, A.J. Green.

A blockbuster trade if there was one
The quiet offseason of the Yankees has suddenly changed as they sent Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi to the Seattle Mariners for Michael Pineda and Jose Campos. That’s one way to make an impact on your pitching staff — both ways. But I have to be totally honest… I don’t really like this trade. And …

Divisional round picks
Just curious — could last week have gone worse for me? I went an amazing 0-4 in my picks last week as Tyler goes 1-3. So a safe bet coming into this is to pick against me and you’ll probably win. Ugh… I don’t even want to talk about it anymore. Here’s our picks for …
