Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

We, as fantasy baseball players, seem to give much more weight to small samples of data when it's coming from an unknown commodity. Call it "shiny new toy" syndrome or whatever you'd like, it's undeniable. Many a fantasy manager has chased the prospect pedigree names like Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize only to get overall […]

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

Early statistics are noisy. This is true for team success. The Miami Marlins have the best run differential but worst record in the NL East. This is certainly true of fantasy players. DJ LeMahieu currently has a higher on-base percentage than slugging percentage. He is the 35th-ranked first baseman and 40th-ranked third baseman through 24 […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers: Week 6

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 5

It's only been one month, but I feel comfortable admitting that the 2021 fantasy baseball season has been harder to manage than 2020. Last year, those who played were just along for the ride.

Closers and Saves Report - Week 5 Waiver Wire

For all the wildness that has already happened in bullpens across the league this season, this week was a nice little respite.
