Don’t get me wrong, fantasy baseball drafts are great and they offer plenty of opportunities to flex your mental muscles. Drafts, however, cannot compare to the intensity and challenges of the auction format. Every auction is unique, but that doesn’t mean you can’t be prepared. With a little help from that scrubbin’ bubbles dude, we’ve scoured the fantasy industry for the best articles focused on Fantasy Baseball Auction Strategy, so that you can take what you want from each and come away with your own master plan.
While sometimes articles are of use only in a given season, many articles on auction strategy are timeless in nature and offer ideas that can be put into use at any time. With that in mind, we’ll include auction strategy links for 2021 as they emerge, but make sure you also check out some of the older ones further down the page. As always no matter how many corners we’ve looked in we probably missed some good sources of fantasy baseball auction strategy. Don’t be selfish. Share!

Also if you want to go into a little more depth with auction strategy as well as everything to do with winning at fantasy baseball, I highly recommend the book, Winning Fantasy Baseball: Secret Strategies of a Nine-Time National Champion, by Larry Schechter. This guy just wins and in this book goes over his basic auction strategies and talks about the challenges unique to mixed league auctions. Fantasy Sports Resource does get a portion of the sales if you buy from the link above, but no worries, it’s the same cost to you.
