Jon Edwards (RP, SD) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~375 CURRENT ADP: --- ANALYSIS: Those dashes don’t mean that I’m too lazy to look his ADP up, he straight up doesn’t have one. The last RP listed is the Twins’ Alex Meyer with an ADP of 712, just so you get an idea of how available this guy is. As you may or may not be […]

Carter Capps (RP, MIA) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~250 CURRENT ADP: 380 ANALYSIS: Before Capps was shut down last year he was the definition of dominant. Seriously. This isn't one of those "oh, he said dominant but that just means he was the best" situations. I mean dominant. Here are the top five relievers and their swinging strike rate from 2015 (min. 30 IP): Zach Putnam […]

Eugenio Suarez (CIN, SS) - Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~220 CURRENT ADP: 297 ANALYSIS: When Suarez first started his professional baseball career, he would not have had “power” bat attached to him. Now it’d still be a stretch to call him a slugger, but out of the shortstop slot he did hit 13 bombs in 97 games (398 plate appearances). Now Todd Frazier is gone and […]

Eduardo Rodriguez (SP, BOS) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~200 CURRENT ADP: 276 ANALYSIS: If you owned Rodriguez in 2015, you know how great he actually was for the majority of his starts, as well as how awful it was to start him in the four games he got shelled. Despite those four starts where he gave up six, seven, eight, and nine […]

Joe Ross (SP, WAS) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~170 CURRENT ADP: 207 ANALYSIS: It’s not a given that Ross will have a spot in the Nationals’ 2016 starting rotation, but he is definitely a favorite and I’d be approaching him as if the #5 spot is his. The upside is too good. Not only does he pitch for a Nationals team that gets to face […]

Jose Quintana (SP, CHW) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~140 CURRENT ADP: 178 ANALYSIS: Quick, what do you think Quintana’s ERA was last year? If you were anywhere close to the actual number (3.36), you probably owned him. Guess what? His 2014 ERA was even lower at 3.32. He’s pitched 200 innings in each of his past three seasons, but has also only recorded nine wins […]

Raisel Iglesias (SP, CIN) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

TARGET: ~135 CURRENT ADP: 168 ANALYSIS: Iglesias put together quite the finish on his 2015, leading to quite a bit of buzz surrounding him as the 2016 season starts to peek out over the horizon. Iglesias didn’t really see consistent work in the majors until he entered the rotation after the All Star break, and then he went […]

NFL Wild Card Week DraftKings DFS Lineup Sleepers: Eddie Lacy, Brian Hoyer, Markus Wheaton

Playoffs!? Yes Coach Mora, playoffs. We've made it to the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs, and even with an eight team slate you better believe we've got DFS games to play. Let's peek at the Vegas lines for these four games. The highest projected point total is the 46 spot for the Pittsburgh-Cincinnati […]

Week 17 DraftKings DFS Lineup Sleepers: Sam Bradford, C.J. Anderson, Nate Washington

Well would you look at that. It feels like just yesterday that I was writing about Week 1 DFS plays for DraftKings, and now it's the last week of the NFL regular season. Week 17 is a pretty volatile one to tango with, as we've got plenty of banged up folks who are in danger […]

Fantasy Football Week 17 Championship Round Fallers: Aaron Rodgers, Denard Robinson, Martavis Bryant & More

Well, some of you might be reading this because you want to read about players who let you down in your Week 16 Championship, but we just want to say we haven't forgotten about you Week 17 warriors who have their fates still to be decided. Let's peek in at some players who didn't do […]

First of all, congratulations to those of you who have already been crowned as champions in 2015. For the rest of you who are still in the trenches, we have not forgotten about you.

Week 16 DraftKings Cheap Tournament Plays: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Frank Gore, Rueben Randle, & More!

Where has the time gone? Two weeks are left in the NFL regular season and while the pros are vying for playoff spots and season long fantasy owners are going for the championships, you DFS vets are simply playing another week. As always this late in the season, be careful that you aren't drawing too much out […]

2016 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Relief Pitchers

Congratulations on making it to the last installment of RotoBaller's first wave of fantasy baseball rankings. As noted in the other 2016 fantasy baseball rankings articles, these rankings were submitted by Brad, Max, Kyle, and myself back on December 6th, and as such the most recent transactions are not reflected yet (such as the Ken […]

Fantasy Football Championship Round Fallers: Aaron Rodgers, Chris Ivory, Calvin Johnson & More

Well Week 15 was pretty freakin' wild man. There were so many players who just absolutely balled out (Antonio Brown, Cam Newton, David Johnson) and performed like the stars you took them to be. Unfortunately, there were also quite a few studs who tripped on their shoelaces all day and went full Charlie Brown on your […]

Fantasy Football Championship Round Risers: Blake Bortles, David Johnson, Stefon Diggs, & More

Week 16 is upon us. Championship champagne bottles are being put on ice. If you're still here with us, congratulations on making it this far. Or maybe you're a masochist who just likes reading these still despite being eliminated. Hi buddy. While we'd all like to think we have a grasp on player and team trends, each week […]

2016 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Starting Pitcher (Part 2)

We're back again for part two of the first look into our starting pitcher rankings. Brad, Max, Kyle, and I just love baseball so much that we can't stay away from it. Just to remind you all, our rankings were submitted on December 6th before the Hot Stove went berserk and caused this late December heat […]

Cameron Artis-Payne Can Bring the Pain

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 10% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: He easily led the committee out of Carolina, rushing 14 times for 59 yards and catching both of his targets for 34 yards. We don't know yet what Jonathan Stewart's status will be for Week 16, but if he can't go then […]

Donald Brown Could Take you to Title-Town

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 3% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: On Sunday, Melvin Gordon went down with a knee injury and was out for the rest of the game. The reports say that the San Diego rookie has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Enter "Dammit" Donald Brown. For the […]

Championship Waiver Wire Adds - The Fantasy Football Finals

If you've survived this long and are playing into Week 16, then congratulations on being in either your league's championship game or the semifinal matchup (but most of you are probably in your championship week now). This column is for those of you who lost someone to injury in Week 15, are playing some matchups with […]

Bilal Powell the Jet's Secret Receiving Weapon

BALLER MOVE: Add in All PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 32% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It appears the Jets have finally found a really nice way to utilize Powell out of the backfield. He is showing some strength in his runs and his usually reliable set of hands in the passing game. With defenses trying their […]

James White "Catching On" to Patriot Way

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 51% owned in Fleaflicker <-- yes I cheated a smidge to include him. ANALYSIS: If James White is somehow still available in PPR leagues you need to get him. Even if standard though, he has proven that he is trusted by Tom Brady in the passing attack […]

Replacing Shady: K-Will/Gillislee Tandem

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues/Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: Karlos Williams: 46% owned in Fleaflicker / Mike Gillislee: 1% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: LeSean McCoy is reportedly now dealing with a torn MCL and is considered "week-to-week" with a hope that he returns for Week 17. What this means for you is that […]

Spencer Ware Looks to Pound Browns

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 38% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Spencer Ware was an "emergency only" option at running back on Sunday (he registered two snaps), so Charcandrick West got to do all of the lifting. If Ware does come back into the fold for Week 16 though, Ware is the bigger guy who […]

Restarting the Christine Michael Hype Train

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 17% owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: I can't believe I'm finally writing this, but here we are. Christine Michael is your add out of the Seahawks backfield after he ran with purpose against a crappy Cleveland defense, going for 84 yards on 16 carries. When you rush for […]

2016 Fantasy Baseball Rankings: Starting Pitcher (Part 1)

Oh yes, it’s time to peek in at the beautiful landscape for starting pitching heading into the 2016 fantasy baseball season. A brief note, our rankings were submitted on December 6th before the full weight of the winter meetings came down. These initial rankings won’t reflect the moves of guys like Zack Greinke to ARI […]

Week 15 DraftKings Cheap Tournament Plays: Philip Rivers, Matt Jones, Nate Washington & More!

Three weeks are left in the NFL regular season and while the pros are vying for playoff spots and season long fantasy owners are going for the championships, you DFS vets are simply playing another week. As always this late in the season, be careful that you aren't drawing too much out of numbers that pertain to […]

The Next Men Up - Denard Robinson, Bryce Brown, Brandon Bolden, and Carolina's Committee

There are four new faces coming out of the woodwork to help you out (maybe) at running back in Week 15. LeGarrette Blount (hip), T.J. Yeldon (MCL), Jonathan Stewart (foot), Thomas Rawls (ankle) all suffered injuries in Week 14, and I guess DuJuan Harris (he stinks) is notably out of the way as well in […]

Week 15 Fantasy Football Fallers: Jameis Winston, Shaun Draughn, Travis Kelce & More

Well Week 14 was really hit or miss across the board with plenty of games in the clunker/ugly category and a few that just absolutely popped off. If your playoff hopes are still alive then take a little sip of champagne if you'd like, but it only gets more difficult and sweaty from here on out. […]

Week 15 Fantasy Football Risers: Todd Gurley, Doug Baldwin, Tim Hightower & More

Week 15 is now here, and for most of you if you're reading this that means you've made it into your league's semifinal matchup. Or perhaps you're tangled up in a two week long first round of the playoffs. Regardless, these weeks tend to be entirely "win or go home". No mulligans here. While we'd all […]
