The best way to guarantee a fantasy baseball win?  Have a great team name.  A  perfect team name sets the tone for the entire season.I t makes you smile when you set your lineups, and it lets the other league owners know you are serious about winning!

Whether you go with intimidation (Who’s Your Vladdy?), a musical reference (I Will Always Love Yu), a movie title (Finding Nimmo), or a nod to pop culture (I’ve got a Blanco Space), you can’t go wrong. Whatever you do, don’t let your team name be generic, aka: “Jen’s Team.” 

Instead, in one league, I call my team “Baller-Inas.”    Trust me. It fits. 

If you’ve got a great team name, be sure to share it with me @jenpiacenti on X!   Let’s get a longer list. 

Of course, a good team name isn't the only thing you need, so you'll also want to check out some of the highlights from our 2025 Sports Illustrated Fantasy Baseball Draft Kit for Cheatsheets, Rookies, Sleepers, Breakouts, Busts and More!

Now, let’s have some fun!
