Statcast Sleepers - Relief Pitchers to Target

This is the first edition of our weekly series on Statcast Pitcher Analysis.

MLB Betting Picks (7/28/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

We entered the first full week of the shortened MLB season with a bit of a scare, as multiple Marlins players and coaches tested positive for COVID-19, thus postponing their upcoming games, as well as the Phillies, who they played last weekend. MLB is on severe damage control right now to try and keep the […]

Second Base and Shortstop Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

Thanks to Ellis Canady for filling in last week (and for touting Cesar Hernandez, who is Good). For the remainder of this all too short season, this beat will be covered by yours truly. As in prior seasons, our focus will be on those players who are rostered in under 50% of Yahoo leagues. Your […]

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

Entering week two and coming off a short week, give us a small sample to work with. This week, I will lean heavily on match-ups and potential for at-bats via lineup placement. There will be a few repeat names on this list due to the rostered percentage not rising and performance warranting an add. Before […]

MLB Betting Picks (7/27/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Early exits for Shohei Ohtani and Corey Kluber put us behind the eight ball to start, and we ended up negative again on Sunday. Tough!

Points League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2

There is no getting around that playing head-to-head points with weekly matchups is a difficult proposition in a 60-game season. There are only 10 weeks to play so that makes for a regular-season made up of just five or six matchups. Obviously, that will be a roller coaster of insanity for any leagues keeping the […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 2

Whether your league has a week one that runs for eleven days, or a week two that starts on Monday, there are plenty of arms on the waiver wire just waiting to help your team contend for a title. Most of these players won’t single-handedly win a week but they are all capable of going […]

Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2

Only three days’ worth of games separate last week’s waiver wire from this week’s, but there are still new players worth picking up this week. In addition to players making their first appearance on this list, some players still aren’t close as highly rostered as they should be after last week. With that in mind, […]

Welcome to RotoBaller's first installment of two-start pitcher streamers for 2020! Successful streaming pitchers can literally be a game-changer when it comes to fantasy baseball. When it comes to daily leagues, two-start streams aren't that important, since you can stream every day. But when it comes to weekly leagues, two-start streams become exponentially more important. […]

The Early Cut List (Week 2) - Time to Let Go?

Welcome back to the Cut List. Writing this column at this exact moment is an interesting exercise because most cuts are either: really obvious, on account of a player opting out of the season or an injury that will cost several weeks; or the opposite of obvious, on account of no one has played more […]

Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates for Week 2

Injuries are commonplace in all sports. Baseball has seen the rate of injury continue to rise over the past few years. In fantasy, if someone is not in the medical field, it is hard to gauge how long a player will be out and whether they need to be replaced in a lineup. Sometimes this […]
