Plate Discipline: Using Sabermetrics for Fantasy Baseball

No matter how high a particular player's BABIP may be, his average will be mediocre at best if he strikes out too much. This is why fantasy managers have known for years that players like Mike Zunino are potential drains on a fantasy team's batting average. Furthermore, players that whiff a lot tend to continue […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 14

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Third Base Dynasty Rankings for Fantasy Baseball

It's not quite draft season for fantasy baseball but that matters little in dynasty. Cut/hold decisions are being made in the following weeks leading up to the annual redraft or auction so it's important to assess the relative value of each player on your roster.

Brandon Clarke (SF/PF, MEM): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: First start for Brandon Clark, first loss of the season for Memphis on Friday. But no, don't give that much if any importance, folks. Steven Adams came back to the rotation but that didn't take the start from Clarke's hands as Adams was eased […]

Kyle Anderson (SF/PF, MEM): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of leagues ANALYSIS: There is an ongoing line of thought about Memphis and what they should do with their über-deep roster. Boiling it down to a simple thing, it says that the Grizzlies would be better off moving most of that depth--which is not going […]

Hamidou Diallo (SG/SF, DET): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: It has taken Hamidou Diallo a bunch of years to getting playable in both the real and the fantasy game, but he's surely gotten there in the past few weeks of play, folks. Diallo, a four-year pro and former Slam Dunk Champ […]

Terrence Ross (SG/SF, ORL): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: I don't think I'm alone in thinking that Terrence Ross might be one if not the best potential veteran moved ahead of the trade deadline. The thing with Ross is that he's been in Orlando for so long (this is his sixth […]

Alec Burks (PG/SG/SF, NYK): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 53% of leagues ANALYSIS: With Derrick Rose injured for a good chunk of games (and still recovering) the Knicks turned to do-it-all man Alec Burks to man the team's point guard position over recently-acquired Kemba Walker, who fell out of the rotation entirely at some point. Then, […]

Eric Gordon (SG/SF, HOU): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS: As is the case with tons of vets, once they get stuck in rebuilding programs and barely used in favor of developing youngsters, one tends to forget about how great they are and all of the goodies they contribute when on the […]

Gary Harris (SG/SF, ORL): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS: You might want to give Gary Harris a few days before committing/rostering him because of what happened on Friday: rookie Jalen Suggs made his comeback to the court after missing all games since Nov. 29. If you remember, Suggs was the starting […]

Trey Lyles (PF/C, DET): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of leagues ANALYSIS: It was not long ago that Trey Lyles started a few games for the Pistons--he did so before Christmas (he missed a week after that game) and then a couple more times at the start of January. Lyles has been back on […]

Marvin Bagley III (PF/C, SAC): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tristan Thompson has been out during the past week but should be back soon. Richaun Holmes is going through conditioning and will also get back to the Kings lineup and make his year-2022 debut in the next few days after missing all […]

Justin Holiday (SG/SF, IND): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 25% of leagues ANALYSIS: Justin Holiday has started 28 of his 37 games played to date for the Pacers this season. He's logging more than healthy minutes at 29 MPG on the year and a bit higher 30 when starting which, by the way, he's done […]
