Joe Hannon - RotoBaller

84 articles

Born and raised in Chicago. Die Hard White Sox, Blackhawks, Bears, and Bulls fan. Cried my eyes out as a young lad on October 12, 1993 at Comiskey Park when the Blue Jays knocked the Sox out of the ALCS - been a huge fan ever since.

Deeper League Waiver Wire: AL Edition (Morrison, Rosario, Hardy, Hamilton, Gibson)

Hey RotoBallers. Welcome to my Week 6 rundown of valuable waiver wire options for AL-Only fantasy baseball leagues. It’s always a challenge to stay ahead of the curve in deeper fantasy formats, so it is important to know which players are performing well now and which will play well all season long. Whether your team is […]


Johnny Giavotella (2B, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in AL-Only Leagues Owned In: 3% of FleaFlicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Angels appear to have found themselves an everyday second baseman in Johnny Giavotella. After playing sparingly for the Royals over the last few seasons, Giavotella is making the most of his opportunity in Los Angeles. He is batting .302 on the season […]


Kyle Lobstein (SP, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed and AL-Only Leagues Owned In: 1% of FleaFlicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With Justin Verlander sidelined, Kyle Lobstein was only supposed to be a temporary replacement.

Deeper League Waiver Wire: AL Edition (Giavotella, Saunders, Lobstein)

Hey RotoBallers. Welcome to my Week 4 rundown of valuable waiver wire options for AL-Only fantasy baseball leagues. It’s always a challenge to stay ahead of the curve in deeper fantasy formats, so it is important to know which players are performing well now and which will play well all season long.

Chris Young (OF, NYY) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 18% in Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The one drawback to owning Chris Young right now is that he is not guaranteed to be in the lineup every day. With that said, Young has been making the most of his opportunities and could be in line for more consistent playing time. […]


Darren O'Day (RP, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: Despite not tallying many wins or saves, Darren O’Day is still an excellent fantasy option. He can help lower the ERA and WHIP of any fantasy squad. In seven innings, O’Day has allowed just two hits and one run while striking out seven batters. He has a […]


Deeper League Waiver Wire: AL Edition (Flaherty, Young, O'Day)

Jake Marisnick (OF, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: The Astros have a lot of emerging talent, including outfielder Jake Marisnick, who was acquired from the Marlins last year. He stands 6′ 4″, 220 pounds and is just 24 years old. He has a promising mix of power and speed, and has shown his potential during the opening […]


Mark Canha (1B/OF, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in AL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: The Athletics were set on platooning Mark Canha with fellow first baseman Ike Davis, with the former only starting against left-handed pitchers. However, Canha is off to a hot start and has found some extra playing time in the outfield, as well. He has at least one hit in […]


Deeper League Waiver Wire: AL Edition (Canha, Marisnick, Milone)

  Hey RotoBallers. The first week of the baseball season is in the books. Here is my week 2 rundown of valuable waiver wire options for AL-only fantasy leagues.

Avisail Garcia (OF, CHW) - 2015 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Avisail Garcia as a late-round outfielder in all formats. ANALYSIS: A lot has been made of Avisail Garcia's potential over the last few years.

Jorge Soler (OF, CHC) - 2015 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target as OF3 ANALYSIS: With all of the hype surrounding the Cubs heading into 2015, one name that has nearly been lost in the shuffle is Cuban outfielder Jorge Soler.

Carlos Rodon (SP/RP, CWS) - 2015 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Late in Keeper Leagues ANALYSIS: At some point this season, Carlos Rodon will be a member of the Chicago White Sox. He features a low-to-mid 90’s fastball and a devastating, late-breaking slider. In three seasons at North Carolina State University, Rodon compiled a 25-10 record with a 2.24 ERA and a 1.06 […]


Carlos Rodon: 2015 Fantasy Baseball Starting Pitcher Sleeper

  If Rodon Cracks the Rotation, He Will Make an Impact in 2015 At some point this season, Carlos Rodon will be a member of the Chicago White Sox. It remains to be seen whether or not he will be a part of the Opening Day roster. Furthermore, the jury is still out regarding his […]
