Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds: Week Seven
We're halfway through May and the waiver wire is looking a bit scarce these days. Most worthwhile outfielders have been scooped up after hot Aprils, leaving only highly speculative players behind. But that doesn't mean all hope is lost. Every owner should always reserve a handful of roster spots for cycling in waiver wire-level talent […]

AL-Only Leagues: Deeper Waiver Wire Pickups For Week Seven
This past weekend, I experienced my first taste of the Uncharted video game series with the newly released Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. My favorite element so far has been not only how varied the gameplay is but how well it all meshes together. I went in thinking I would spend a lot of timing […]

Week 7 Buy and Sell for Fantasy Baseball
Really couldn’t have asked for a better showing from last week’s buys. David Price dominated the Astros. Adam Duvall had three multi-hit games, homered, drove in five runs, and even stole a base for good measure. On the sell side, Michael Brantley landed back on the disabled list, lending further credence to my theory that […]

Welcome to week seven of the baseball season. We've got nine games on tap for Monday with first pitch at 6:10 ET. FanDuel doesn't include the 6:10 start between the Reds and Indians in its main slate, but we weren't using John Lamb or Chase Anderson anyways.

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Jones, Puig and Scherzer
My plan was very simple. Last week I profiled three struggling aces, intending to shift over to slumping bats this week. Then Scherzer decided to strikeout 20 Tigers amid concerns that he was off to a slow start, so I felt I should look at him. Thus, we have two slumping bats and whatever you […]

Week 6 Buy and Sell for Fantasy Baseball
Good week on the buy side, as Ian Kennedy shut down the Indians and Marcus Semien went deep twice. Not a great showing on the sell half, though, as both Mark Trumbo and Jaime Garcia continued to impress. Still bearish on both long-term, but credit where it’s due. Once more unto the breach, dear friends. […]
