MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 16

The trade deadline is still over 10 days away. And yet, we've already seen a few big trades, two of which impact a few bullpens around the league. There are certainly more changes coming, and it seems teams might not wait until July 31st for the usual "oh-my-goodness-let's-refresh-Twitter-every-few-seconds-throughout-the-day" madness. Ryan Madson, Sean Doolittle, Tommy Kahnle, […]

Power Risers and Fallers for Week 16: Buy or Sell?

Welcome back to this investigative piece where we examine players who have seen some notable changes in their power profiles -- for better or for worse -- in 2017. As usual, you don’t need me to tell you that Miguel Sano and Aaron Judge are strong or that Jarrod Dyson and Billy Hamilton are toward the bottom […]

Josh Doctson (WR, WAS) - 2017 Fantasy Football Sleeper

The Washington Redskins selected TCU wide receiver Josh Doctson with the 22nd pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. Washington had good reason to take him that high; he has solid size, is a great route runner, and has tremendous red zone target potential. Unfortunately for Doctson, his rookie season went wrong in every way imaginable. He […]

Chris Conley (WR, KC) - 2017 Fantasy Football Sleeper

As you are nearing the back-end of your draft, it becomes time to take fliers on players with uncertainty surrounding how productive they will be. Properly using your late round picks involves accepting the fact that even though the player you are selecting could develop into a serviceable fill-in or even a starter, it is […]

Strikeout Rate Risers and Fallers for Week 16: Buy or Sell?

Missing bats is the #1 way a pitcher can control his own fate. If hitters make contact, the pitcher is largely at the mercy of the atmosphere, the weather, the ball park, the ability/work ethic of his fielders, and sometimes just sheer luck. This is ultimately why strikeouts are so important. By looking at pitchers […]

Champ or Chump: Yoan Moncada & J.D. Martinez

Deals have been coming in fast and furious, giving fantasy owners a lot of things to consider.

Ryan Madson appears to be his set-up guy, […]

Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/20/17): MLB DFS Advice for FanDuel and DraftKings

There's a small slate of games Thursday but there should be no shortage of offensive firepower with hot temperatures projected for several games. There are also plenty of pitching options without many lock down aces on today's slate but also not many punching bags toeing the rubber either. Given the wide array of options for […]

Waiver Wire Points Leagues - Week 16

Week 16 is a doozy, spanning 10 days, making many pitchers "two-start" guys and keeping us on our feet right after the All-Star break. If you're like me, the All-Star break was long and the desire to check my lineups hit every day. While I may not have had players playing games, I was still making […]

Players to Avoid in the Second Half

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - 2017 Fantasy Football Sleeper

HOOP! There it is! At least that's what I yell every time Austin Hooper scores a touchdown (Okay I lied - I actually do that whenever he catches a pass. My friends really hate me). After he was seldom used in 2016, Austin could be Hoopin' it up a whole lot more in 2017. Hooper wouldn't […]
