4/04/24 Royals score 8 in 7th inning to crush White Sox. Nelson Velazquez and MJ Melendez homered, and Seth Lugo escaped several jams as the host Kansas City Royals blasted the Chicago White Sox 10-1 on Thursday evening. Lugo (1-0) allowed five singles and a walk through the first four innings, avoiding damage with the help of three double-play grounders, including Yoan Moncada's sharp grounder with the bases loaded in the third. In 6 2/3 innings, Lugo allowed a run on eight hits and two walks with three strikeouts.

12/19/23 Nelson Velazquez, 2024 Fantasy Sleeper. There's going to be guys who are sleepers for friends and family leagues and there will be sleepers for deep leagues, and there might be sleepers for both. Imagine Nelson Velazquez won't fall into the Both category. He feels to me like a guy who will get a lot of helium in those "We're Smart" leagues. They're not actually "Smart" leagues, but if you play in a deep league, you think you're smart. I've said many times that I think shallow leagues are just as hard. Or just a shard if glass is reading. In shallow leagues, it's a nonstop debate if a guy is producing enough, even if they're supposed to be great down the road. In "smart" leagues, you usually can't do anything after your draft that makes much of a difference. That doesn't make things smarter. With that said, I think Nelson Velazquez will be appreciated readily in "smart" leagues but shouldn't only be in "smart" leagues. This guy is a dumb league guy too! Wait until you hear what he did last year (at the age of 24!), you're gonna blow your freakin' lid, smarties and dummies alike! In Triple-A and the majors combined, he hit 33 homers, stole seven bags and, holy schnike balls, I see why those smarties are in on this guy. Let's see if we can convince the dummies! So, what can we expect from Nelson Velazquez for 2024 fantasy baseball and what makes him a sleeper?
