Predicting the Top 10 Finishers in Strikeouts

If there's a glamour category for pitchers in both real-life and fantasy baseball, it comes in the form of the almighty K. Strikeouts are more than just an effective way to keep runners off base, they are to some degree an assertion of a pitcher's dominance. When you think about the most intimidating pitchers in the […]

Predicting the Top 10 Finishers in Steals

While the juiced ball has raised home run totals across the board, stolen bases are becoming an increasingly rare commodity. In 2016, there were 14 players who finished with 30 or more steals, while 28 players robbed at least 20 bases. By contrast, 10 years ago there were 19 players who stole 30+ bases and […]

Channing Frye (PF/C, CLE) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Having a pure shooter like Channing Frye at the center spot could be very valuable. He has suddenly become fantasy-relevant with the news that Kevin Love will be out approximately six weeks. Even if the Cavaliers add Andrew Bogut, it appears Frye […]

Tim Frazier (PG/SG, NO) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 34% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Another winner from the DeMarcus Cousins deal may be backup point guard Tim Frazier. He was a smart pickup early this season while Jrue Holiday was out, but he has played sparingly since both Jrue Holiday and Tyreke Evans returned to action. […]

Way Too Early Fantasy Football Mock Re-Draft Analysis - Rounds 10-16

The later rounds of a draft are typically marred by a lack of attention. Your core team is in place, so the remaining rounds are filled with kickers, defenses, rookies, and sleepers.

Jose Peraza (2B, CIN) - 2017 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers & Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target ~120 CURRENT ADP: 138 ANALYSIS: Jose Peraza had the kind of post-deadline production that makes you salivate about his potential over a full season. He spent the early part of the season bouncing back and forth between Triple-A and the big-league club, hitting .250 with the occasional stolen base. After his last call-up on Aug. […]

BALLER MOVE: Target ~180 CURRENT ADP: 207 ANALYSIS: Devon Travis was a valuable streamer for many fantasy owners at times last season, but inconsistency has held him back from being a full-fledged fantasy starter.

Reviewing Pierre Camus's Bold NFL Predictions of 2016

Biggest Busts and Disappointments of 2016 - Wide Receivers

Wide receivers played a bigger factor than ever in fantasy football this season. Many fantasy owners went with the "Zero RB" strategy and waited until the middle rounds before even considering a quarterback. Therefore, the number of wide receivers with a first or second round ADP increased from previous years. Unfortunately, not all of these […]
