===Don't Chase Wins=== 
A strategy that is tied in with Pitch and Ditch. [[Statistical analysis]] shows that the number of wins, a fundamental [[statistic]] in [[fantasy baseball]], that a pitcher earns are not consistent and that the number of wins that a pitcher earns is not a good reflection of his true skill. Thus, Mike and Cory tell the listeners to focus on improving other pitching statistics, such as [[save
 (sport)|saves]], [[strikeouts]], [[ERA]], and [[WHIP]] and that accumulating wins requires patience.

===Buy Low, Sell High===
A strategy for trading where the optimal scenario is to trade away players who are outperforming their projected performance or are getting lucky and to acquire players who are underperforming and can be reasonably expected to perform better.  An essential part of the strategy is to make sure to acquire a player who is more skilled than the one being traded away.  Buying low and selling high is not useful if the players are of equal value or the one being acquired is less skillfull.

===Flags Fly Forever===
In reference to keeper leagues, Siano and Schwartz always recommend to try and win in the present if possible.  Often listeners are too concerned with the future and with their kepper lists when competing in keeper leagues, but Siano and Schwartz always remind the audience that winning championships is the ultimate goal because "flags fly forever." (See: [[Pennant]])
