BALLER MOVE:  Add in 12+ team leagues ROSTERED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS:   I can't guarantee that Paxton will even stay healthy between now and the time you finish reading this sentence, but while he's healthy he's at least a little bit interesting.

Jameson Taillon - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 8

BALLER MOVE:  Add in all leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS:   It's a very small sample size on Taillon this year, and the results haven't been great, but he does have a really strong 28% K% and a 6.7% BB% right now. He has had one of the lowest walk rates in the […]

BALLER MOVE:  Add in all leagues ROSTERED IN: 16% of leagues ANALYSIS:   Varland is the priority pick-up under 50% owned this week. What he's done in his three starts has been really impressive. Here's the whole list of pitchers this year with 3+ GS, a K% above 27%, a BB% below 9%, and a […]

Eury Perez - Fantasy Baseball Pitcher Waiver Wire Adds for Week 8

BALLER MOVE:  Add in all leagues ROSTERED IN: 60% of leagues ANALYSIS:   Just a quick disclaimer here since Perez is already above the 50% threshold we use for this piece.
