KFC MLS Fantasy Difficulty Chart: Week 6 – Week 11

As I said last week, the values for this chart will be changing after week 6 in order to make it be more in line with “general performance expectations.” There is a post on the r/FantasyMLS subreddit where anyone is welcome to provide input for this modification. Here is the Direct Link to the thread. When using the chart this …

KFC MLS Fantasy Team – Week 5

Good evening everyone. Sorry this post, as the others this week, was late. I actually just decided on the last trade so I really could not have posted it earlier. The decision was swayed by conversations in chat and on the r/FantasyMLS site. I never pass up an opportunity to learn something new and the continued growth of this community …

KFC’s MLS Fantasy Captain picks – Week 5

If you’re like us, you are breathing a sigh of relief to see so many players coming back from international duty injury free (sorry Keane owners). We’re down one of our normal captain picks this week, but we have a lot of the regulars back. The only concern many people will have is are the internationals fit enough for a …

KFC’s Fantasy MLS Forward picks – Week 5

As we mentioned last week, forwards have been pretty hit or miss so far and that does not look to be changing any time soon, especially with the return of some of the big time midfielders. We really only have 1 main forward recommendation, and he’s on a bye this week. Big 3 Chris Wondolowski (HOU v SJ), Robbie Keane (TOR …

KFC’s Fantasy MLS Midfielder picks – Week 5

As most managers are probably starting to figure out, Midfielders are the cash cows of fantasy MLS. You don’t have to worry about the -4 from a goal, but you can still rack up bonus points, goals, and assists. They really can be the whole package, if you are able to pick the right ones. This was a particularly hard …

KFC’s Fantasy MLS Defender picks – Week 5

Just like keepers, defenders had a pretty good this week thanks to several clean sheets. That’s always a good result when your team is worrying about loosing players to International duty. But everyone should be back for week 5, unless injured, and this should help defenses perform more to expectations.  Keep in mind that Columbus and DC are not playing …

KFC’s MLS Fantasy Keeper picks – Week 5

Six teams were able to keep clean sheets this week, which make it pretty decent for keepers.  The International call-ups really hurt many defenses, especially those who lost keepers, yeah I’m looking at you Chicago…OUCH! A couple of the big names are on bye this week and a few tough matches makes it hard to find some standout picks. Big …

KFC MLS Fantasy Difficulty Chart: Week 5 – Week 10

Originally I said I would not be updating the values for team difficulty on this chart. But I have reconsidered that and plan to update some of the lower teams after week 6. If anyone would like to participate in this process, there will be a post on the r/FantasyMLS subreddit about it in the coming weeks. This chart displays …

KFC MLS Fantasy Team – Week 4

I saw several posts this week (on various subreddits) where people were talking about how hard they got hit by the International call-ups. We were lucky enough avoid injuries and were able to field a full team this week, but it took a trade last week to ensure that. Planning for future weeks is definitely an important part of fantasy …

KFC’s MLS Fantasy Captain picks – Week 4

International duty, what a bitch right? A lot of the best go-to captains are either injured, on a bye, or on international duty. The only good thing about that means that the list is short this week.  Keep reading for the list.
