Nick Castellanos Remains Out On Sunday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (illness) is still absent from the lineup on Sunday against the Oakland Athletics. The veteran outfielder hasn't played since June 16 while dealing with an illness so fantasy managers can still consider him day-to-day.

[…]

Louie Varland - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 13

BALLER MOVE:  Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 25% of leagues ANALYSIS:   Varland makes for a good short term pickup in deeper leagues where you need a starter this week. Varland will face the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park and pitching matchups don't get much better than that this season. Detroit is in […]

Jaime Barria Has Start Skipped

Los Angeles Angels pitcher Jaime Barria has had his scheduled start on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers skipped. This is all designed to make Barria available out of the bullpen for Sunday's contest against the Royals and it gives Reid Detmers the start on Tuesday vs. the Dodgers.

Dean Kremer - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 13

BALLER MOVE:  Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS:   Kremer is the opposite of the Braxton Garrett type of pitcher this year. His strikeout percentage is only 19% and his ground ball percentage also leaves much to be desired at 36%. However, he doesn't walk many batters (5% walk percentage) […]

Clarke Schmidt - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 13

BALLER MOVE:  Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS:   Schmidt has been very steady for the Yankees recently. He hasn't allowed more than three earned runs in any of his last five starts. On the season he has a solid 3.92 xFIP, which is much better than his 4.70 ERA. […]

Taijuan Walker - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 13

BALLER MOVE:  Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 43% of leagues ANALYSIS:   I recommended Walker last week and wrote that he should only be used in good matchups, but I'm starting to rethink that stance. While he has taken advantage of some soft matchups against Oakland and Detroit, he also shutout the Dodgers […]

Gunnar Henderson Scratched Late On Sunday

Baltimore Orioles infielder Gunnar Henderson has been scratched from the lineup for Sunday's contest against the Chicago Cubs. Henderson was on the original lineup card but was a late scratch.

Braxton Garrett - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 13

BALLER MOVE:  Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 47% of leagues ANALYSIS:   Quite frankly, I have no idea how Garrett's rostership is still this low. He has struck out at least six batters in seven of his last eight starts. He has a 3.88 ERA on the season, but his xFIP is significantly […]

Francisco Lindor Back In Sunday's Lineup

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor is back at shortstop and is batting in the three-hole on Sunday against left-hander Matthew Liberatore and the St. Louis Cardinals. Lindor was out on Saturday after his wife gave birth to their daughter. Hopefully that sparks Lindor offensively, as he's hitting just .211 (56-for-265) on the season, although […]
