Last year, our weekly fantasy baseball cheat sheets helped everyone stay on top of current hitter trends (who’s hot over the last week / month) and figure out which hitters available on their own league’s waiver wire make sense for their roster. The popularity of those, coupled with the interest our cheat sheets from Spring Training and the World Baseball Classic received, have led us to build this home base for an in season fantasy baseball cheat sheet.
