Deeper Hitter Pickups for Fantasy Baseball: Waiver Wire Report for Week 13

We’re coming up on Week 13 of the fantasy baseball season. The season seems to enter a slight lull in June, but you can't afford to rest now.

This weekly article will outline the upcoming schedule, two-start pitchers, […]

Jordan Hicks Notches Another Save Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals relief pitcher Jordan Hicks tossed a scoreless ninth to secure his second consecutive save over the New York Mets, this time closing out an 8-7 win. This is starting to become a story, as presumed closer Giovanny Gallegos should have been available for this one, but was held out in favor of […]

Alex Young Picks Up First Save

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Alex Young picked up an extra-innings save on Sunday, securing a 9-7 victory over the Houston Astros. Young came into the game in the tenth after Ian Gibaut blew the save in the ninth with usual closer Alexis Diaz unavailable. The former allowed the ghost runner to score, but nothing more. […]

Carlos Estevez Gets Back On Track Sunday

Los Angeles Angels closer Carlos Estevez secured his 19th save of the season on Sunday in a 5-2 win over the Kansas City Royals. Estevez threw a perfect ninth, striking out one in the process.

Jason Foley Records Six-Out Save

Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Jason Foley picked up his third save of the season with his brilliant performance in a 6-4 win over the Minnesota Twins. Tasked with getting out of a two-on, nobody-out jam in what was suddenly becoming a close game thanks to another Alex Lange blowup, Foley delivered and only allowed one […]

Yunior Marte Records First Save

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Yunior Marte was asked to take the ball with a one-run lead in the ninth inning during Sunday's game against the Oakland Athletics.

Lance Lynn Notches 16 Strikeouts

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn looked unhittable throughout most of Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The right-hander delivered a dominant performance in a losing effort. Lynn struck out a career-high 16 batters over seven innings of work. Those 16 punchouts matched a White Sox' franchise record set by Jack Harshman in 1954. […]

Bryce Miller Looks Terrific On Sunday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Bryce Miller made easy work of the Chicago White Sox on Sunday. The rookie right-hander allowed only one run on four hits over seven innings of work.

Alex Cobb Placed On Injured List

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Alex Cobb (oblique) has been placed on the 15-day injured list on Sunday, retroactive June 15. It's a tough blow to the Giants considering Cobb was scheduled to start versus the San Diego Padres on Monday. The organization hasn't given a timetable for Cobb's return. Keaton Winn will take the […]

Julio Rodriguez Drives In A Pair In Victory

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez went 1-for-3 with a double, two RBI, a stolen base, a walk, and a strikeout in a 5-1 win over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.
