20 Things to Watch for in Week 16 (2022 Fantasy Baseball)

Welcome, fantasy friends and foes, to Week 16 of the 2022 Fantasy Baseball Season.

After an exciting All-Star Break, welcome to the first week of MLB action. Then, it is time to get back to work and prepare your fantasy team for the second half of the season and your playoff berth.

Here are 20 Things to Watch for in Week 16 as we turn third base and head home for this season.

1. Week 16 Schedule Highlights

Whether combining the short week last week or playing them separately into two weeks, fantasy managers need to be aware of schedule oddities. Four teams are playing only five games this week: Chicago White Sox, Minnesota Twins, New York Mets, and St. Louis Cardinals. The Boston Red Sox, Cincinnati Reds, and the Toronto Blue Jays enjoy home cooking all week. Please monitor which St. Louis Cardinals and Detroit Tigers players are COVID-19 vaccinated because MLB Players without COVID-19 Vaccines can not play in Toronto.

2. Where is Juan Soto going?

Soto is an all-world talent who refused to sign the Nationals’ contract offer, and he is likely to be moved at the Trade Deadline. The teams are lining up to obtain Soto, including New York Yankees, St. Louis Cardinals, and the San Diego Padres. The haul to acquire Soto will be gigantic, as well as his new contract. Stay tuned.
