Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Week 27

Welcome to the top hitter streamers column for Week 27 of the MLB season (9/27 through 10/3). This weekly piece should be helpful for anyone looking to gain an edge in their league. If you need a fill-in for an injured player or want to exploit some matchups in order to gain an edge on […]


Anthony Santander (OF, BAL) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: On the surface, it's been an underwhelming 2021 season for Santander. The 26-year-old slugger showed a lot of promise last year, smashing 13 doubles and 11 home runs in just 37 games before an oblique strain cut his season short. Fantasy […]


Leury Garcia (2B/3B/SS/OF, CHW) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 13% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's all about volume next week and Garcia will see plenty of at-bats as the White Sox play eight games. They begin the week with a three-game series against the Tigers in Detroit before heading to Cleveland for a five-game set, […]


Evan Longoria (3B, SFG) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 27% of leagues ANALYSIS: Longoria was putting together an excellent season before spraining his shoulder in early June, an injury that sidelined him for over two months. He was activated on August 14 and played in just five games before injuring a finger on his […]


Travis d'Arnaud (C, ATL) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 10+ teams ROSTERED IN: 45% of leagues ANALYSIS: Atlanta is one of three teams to play eight games next week so d'Arnaud checks the volume box for us. He's scuffled a bit lately, so his numbers don't look that impressive, but he's somewhat salvaged what would have been a […]


Luis Urias (2B/3B/SS, MIL) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 10+ teams ROSTERED IN: 39% of leagues ANALYSIS: The week sets up nicely for Luis Urias and the Brewers. The 24-year-old infielder is putting together the best year of his career for the Brew Crew and should continue to put up even more production over the final full week […]


Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Week 26

Welcome to the top hitter streamers column for Week 26 of the MLB season (9/20 through 9/26). This weekly piece should be helpful for anyone looking to gain an edge in their league. If you need a fill-in for an injured player or want to exploit some matchups in order to gain an edge on […]


LaMonte Wade Jr. (1B/OF, SFG) - Week 25 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Giants schedule sets up perfectly for Wade Jr., who bats left-handed. San Francisco not only plays seven games but they'll face six right-handed starters and just one lefty. Wade Jr. and Darin Ruf, who's having an incredible season, have been platooning […]


Alcides Escobar (2B/SS, WSN) - Week 25 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: Escobar has actually been a solid contributor for the Nationals this season after not playing in the MLB in 2019 and 2020. He signed a minor-league contract with Kansas City in May but didn't record an at-bat with the club before […]


Brandon Belt (1B/OF, SFG) - Week 25 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS: Brandon Belt has had an interesting 2021 season. He got off to a sluggish start following offseason heel surgery and a battle with COVID-19. He then dealt with an oblique strain in late May, which required a stint on the injured […]


Alejandro Kirk (C, TOR) - Week 25 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 16% of leagues ANALYSIS: Kirk has been raking at the plate since getting recalled on July 23. He's slashing a rock-solid .303/.360/.517 with four home runs and 14 RBI over 100 plate appearances since then and has a .273/.347/.492 batting line with seven home runs […]


Carter Kieboom (3B/SS, WSN) - Week 25 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: Kieboom struggled in limited action over his first two stints with the Nationals back in 2019 and 2020. He slashed a meager .181/.309/.232 with two home runs and 11 RBI over his first 165 plate appearances at the major league level, […]


Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Week 25

Welcome to the top hitter streamers column for Week 25 of the MLB season (9/13 through 9/19). This weekly piece should be helpful for anyone looking to gain an edge in their league. If you need a fill-in for an injured player or want to exploit some matchups in order to gain an edge on […]


Odubel Herrera (2B/OF, PHI) - Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: Herrera, like Joe listed above him, is another leadoff man whos' been performing well lately. He has been sizzling hot at the dish over the last 15 games, going 20-for-47 (.426/.491/.766) with four home runs, eight RBI, a stolen base, and […]


Connor Joe (1B/OF, COL) - Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's rare to find a player like Joe on the waiver wire this late into the year. He's a leadoff man, who hits in a potent offense, and possesses even splits against right-handed and left-handed pitching. He's been readily available on […]


Nicky Lopez (2B/SS, KCR) - Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 10+ teams ROSTERED IN: 47% of leagues ANALYSIS: We're going back to the well with Lopez, who's been an excellent streamer for us this season. The speedy 26-year-old has been on fire over his last 15 contests, going 23-for-59 (.390/.463/.475) with one home run, six RBI, five stolen bases, […]


LaMonte Wade Jr. (1B/OF, SFG) - Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: Streaming Wade Jr. has been fairly straightforward this season. Whenever San Francisco is facing a right-handed starting pitcher, he's in their lineup and should be in yours, too. The 27-year-old first baseman/outfielder is slashing .267/.336/.556 with 17 home runs, 42 RBI, […]


Jacob Stallings (C, PIT) - Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: Our catcher options are pretty limited for next week. It's already the shallowest position in fantasy baseball and there just aren't many attractive options on the waiver wire this deep into the season. We've had to dig a little deeper than normal […]


Jonathan Villar (2B/3B/SS, NYM) - Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 10+ teams ROSTERED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Next week, Villar checks two of the most important boxes when it comes to streaming. He's been raking at the plate for the better part of the month, so he's hot, and the Mets are also playing seven games, so he'll […]


Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Week 24

Welcome to the top hitter streamers column for Week 24 of the MLB season (9/6 through 9/12). This weekly piece should be helpful for anyone looking to gain an edge in their league. If you need a fill-in for an injured player or want to exploit some matchups in order to gain an edge on […]


Garrett Hampson (2B/SS/OF, COL) - Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's mostly been another disappointing season for the speedy 26-year-old, who struggled to capitalize on the playing time opportunities he saw earlier this season. He was starting every game at either center field or second base to begin the year, and […]


Luis Urias (2B/3B/SS, MIL) - Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS: Urias has quietly put together a strong season for the Brewers. He's slashing .248/.339/.442 with 17 home runs, 57 RBI, five stolen bases, and 63 runs scored over 387 at-bats. His rate stats are nothing special and they're right in line […]


Miguel Sano (1B/3B, MIN) - Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 10+ teams ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: Miguel Sano's last seven games are a microcosm of his season, and his entire career for that matter. He's put up an ugly .214 batting average and .290 OBP with 10 strikeouts over 28 at-bats. However, he also slugged .571 with […]


Brendan Rodgers (2B/SS, COL) - Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 20% of leagues ANALYSIS: Rodgers' career got off to a rocky start, which took a lot of wind out of his top prospect sails. He slashed .196/.235/.227 over his first 102 plate appearances, which is such a tiny sample size that it probably should be […]
