A blog analyzing Major League Baseball through the lens of Astrology

Welcome to Astrology Baseball, a project where I arrange MLB players into teams based on their astrological signs, and then pit those teams against each other in mock fantasy seasons.

Opening Day Roster Report

If you’ll recall some of the idiosyncrasies of my Fantasy Astrology Baseball League, I have made it a personal rule to set the lineups only once a week. That limitation keeps me from obsessing over every single pitching matchup and nagging injury for all 12 signs. Here are some notes I took while putting together the lineups for opening day.

FABL Roster Moves, July

We’re still a couple days before the start of July, but I decided to get a head start on adding new players to the Fantasy Astrology teams this month. This way, teams can have access to reinforcements for this week’s matchup. Although with playoff odds becoming more and more solidified (at least according to the ESPN fantasy client that I use), this exercise will become less and less important for the bottom-dwelling teams.

Today is the first day of June, which means we’re in the heart of Gemini season. With this new page on the calendar, it’s time to scour the waiver wire of the Fantasy Astrology Baseball League and add players that were left off their signs’ rosters to start the year.

Setting boundaries for myself is the main reason that I only add players to teams via the waiver wire once a month. And with the calendar recently having changed over from April to May, here are some of the top fantasy players that I left on the bench to start the 2021 FABL season.
