Best, Funniest Fantasy Baseball Team Names 2021 image

It's a take a lot of effort to win a fantasy league -- from draft prep to waiver moves to start/sit decisions -- but you won't have a bigger challenge all season than picking the best fantasy baseball team name. After all, the vast majority of your league will win nothing at the end of the year, but everyone has a chance to shine with a funny or clever team name. So, while others study auction values, rankings, sleeper picks, and other assorted cheat sheets, you can focus on what really matters, which is the list below. 

Before you dive in, we'll admit that there might be one or two...hundred suggestions below that aren't great. But, as we like to point out, even if 70 percent are terrible, we're still batting .300, which makes us Hall-of-Famers. Even if you disagree and think we're batting closer to .230, well, that's the way the game is trending nowadays: Lower averages but more home runs, which we provide in the form of "Bichette's Creek," "And Teoscar Goes To...," "Zero Lux Given," and "Moustakas Tuesday." Still productive. At the very least, we're taking a significant amount of pitches in the form of our bad suggestions. Take advantage of the hard work we put in and be inspired to think of your own, significantly better team names. 

2021 FANTASY BASEBALL RANKINGS:
Catcher | First | Second | Third | Short | Outfield | Starter | Reliever | Top 300

We know that the best team names are often going to be inside jokes among your leaguemates or crude/offensive things that we can't print here. We can't help much with either, but we're sure you can come up with those on your own. However, if you're looking to name your team after one of your players -- and you're a fan of slightly-dated-to-significantly-dated puns -- then you're in the right place.

Just search for a player's name and you can find our suggestions for him. Pick your favorite -- or think of a better one -- and your season will be a success even if you finish in 10th place.
