Week 14 Buy and Sell Hitters for Fantasy Baseball: All-Star Edition

The All-Star votes are in and the baseball world is baffled.

Still, no matter how you look at it, the results of the final All-Star teams (reserves included) do not line […]

Congratulations to the women’s soccer team for grabbing the gold in the Women’s World Cup. For those of us that do not watch soccer too often…cough, cough, me….it was kind of fun to see an offensive explosion in the first 15 minutes of the game. Even more fun was seeing all the World War Two […]

Five Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds for Week 14

About a month ago, I was talking to another owner in my home league and mentioned that my team had been fairly fortunate on the injury front.

Top Five Two-Start Pitcher Streamers & Sleepers for Week 14

Quality over quantity. Every fantasy owner knows this.

Champ or Chump: What to make of Maikel Franco, Shelby Miller, and Carlos Correa

Like it or not, being able to properly […]

Two out of three on both the buy and sell sides last week. Michael Pineda was dominant in defeat, going the distance against the Astros while striking out seven and walking none.

Minor Leagues Spotlight: Top MLB Prospects for Fantasy from Week 12

Unsurprisingly, Joey Gallo was sent back down to Triple-A when Josh Hamilton was activated from the DL.

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 7/3/15

I’m writing this draft prior to Scherzer pitching on Thursday, so if I’m burying the lead by saying that all of Thursday’s starters who returned from the DL (Jose Fernandez, Matt Cain, and Matt Moore) pitched pretty well overall.
