[…]


Khris Davis (OF, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Davis is an interesting prospect. With Ryan Braun accepting his suspension for the remainder of the season, Milwaukee called up Davis to try to replace some of the lost production. So far, he’s pretty much just bench and pinch-hitting duty, but he has 2 HR in just 27 AB, and […]


Alex Wood (SP, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: With the fall of Paul Maholm and Tim Hudson to recent injuries, it appears Alex Wood will remain in the Braves rotation for the foreseeable future. Wood has impressed so far with a 3.51 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 38 strikeouts in 33.1 innings. Barring the unlikely scenario […]

Michael Wacha (SP, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: He’s just a rotation injury away from being recalled to the Cardinals rotation. Carlos Martinez was called up for bullpen work and would need to be stretched out again for a rotation spot, so Wacha is prepared to help fantasy owners if needed. Some good news for Wacha […]

After last week's All-Star Break, the Prospect Primer takes a special turn this week to look at the second-half prospect rankings and how they might help your fantasy team. Always vital, these players could provide an enticing spark when they're promoted, and supplement a championship-caliber fantasy team down the playoff stretch or help middle-of-the-road team […]


Henry Urrutia (OF, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Baltimore has called up their touted OF prospect, and he will be starting tomorrow. Urrutia is an interesting player– not unlike Markakis and Machado, he’s a gap-power-type doubles hitter. Currently he has a .365 BA with 7 HR and 43 RBIs in Triple-A, so if he can sustain […]

Grant Green (2B, SS, OAK)

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Through 81 games in the minors, Green batted .318/.374/.500 with 11 HR and 49 RBI. He's been called up and you should definitely keep and eye on him. He has quick hands and a good line-drive stroke through the hitting zone. Don’t expect great power in the majors, but doubles […]


Erasmo Ramirez (SP, SEA)

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Seattle called up their hidden gem Erasmo Ramirez on Monday night. Many of you may have forgotten him and his 3.36 ERA/ 1.00 WHIP through his 59 IP last year. He was injured in Spring Training and has been rehabbing successfully in the Mariners’ minor league system. This year he […]


Nick Castellanos (3B, OF, DET)

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: The combination of Andy Dirks and Avisail Garcia has provided average-at-best outfield production for the Tigers. And in that connection, I’d just like to remind everyone to watch Castellanos very closely. He brings third base eligibility and will be inserted into an extraordinarily productive linuep immediately upon receiving the call. […]
