2014 Preseason Picks Part 2: Defenders

Last week I kicked off my preseason tips series with an article on Keeper combinations. Today, I’m going to cover which defenders that I think look promising. Defenders I like Center backs. They are in the perfect place to get a lot of Clearances, Blocks, and Interceptions (CBIs). This is one of the most important starts to look for in …

KFC’s MLS Fantasy Player Roundup – Week 35

  Once again, this week’s games are going to start early so everyone needs to be sure to make their transfers before the October 16th deadline. I worked hard to get our picks out early this week to help with this. The big X factor is when the WCQ players return, especially those who might play in the double game …

  It’s a quick turnaround for picks this week. Combine that with all the injuries, cards, Byes, and WCQ call ups making picks can be very tough this week. A lot of teams are going to be stuck with 4+ players who will not have games so pick wisely if you are taking -4s. I’m going to try to keep …

KFC’s MLS Fantasy Player Roundup – Week 29

  If you have not started thinking about your trades yet, you better start. Week 29 starts on the 4th so it’s a short turnaround. Also, as I mentioned last week, players have started leaving for World Cup Qualifiers, so several people could be missing some key players. But don’t worry; I’ve tried to work up some picks that can …

KFC’s MLS Fantasy Player Roundup – Week 24

  So I got a few comments from the last couple of weeks that basically said people liked the condensed format, but wanted it earlier. I’ll give it a shot this week and we’ll see how it works. I know we’re at hump day, but some things cant’ be rushed. We did publish the form charts for this week a …
