MARKET PULSE: Eyeing Isaac

NOTE for today's column — Based on recent feedback to dig a bit deeper, we've adjusted the hitter thresholds as follows:

  • "Shallow leagues" from 50-80% rostered in Fantrax leagues to 40-70% rostered.
  • "Deeper leagues" from 20-50% to 15-40%.
  • "Pre-market" from <20% to <15% AND sorted by playing time/skills rather than rostership trends. See intro paragraph for details.

​Appreciate the feedback, as always, as we try to cast a net that catches as many different league sizes as possible. —RB

Yes, the outfield is more scarce than several other positions. Who would have thunk it?
