JaMycal Hasty (RB, SF) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For a player that has logged 6, 2, 15, and 14 snaps in the four games he's played, it is rather incredible that virtually all fantasy GMs are running after him these days. That's JaMycal Hasty for you, folks, or should I say that's San […]

Brandon Aiyuk (WR, SF) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Take the time you need to read this post and enjoy it, because we will probably not be writing about Brandon Aiyuk for the rest of the season as a potential WW target. With a rostership nearing the 50%+ and given his last […]

Nelson Agholor (WR, LV) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Slowly but surely, Nelson Agholor is finding his place and making Philly fans miss him this season. Prior to Week 4, Agholor had not been more than a glorified über-efficient player barely used in Las Vegas with completely unsustainable outcomes. He had 4 […]

Scotty Miller (WR, TB) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: You can be forgiven for not drafting Scotty Miller this summer. You can be forgiven for not picking him from waivers after the first couple of weeks of this season. But at this point, if you are one of the nine fantasy GMs […]

Sterling Shepard (WR, NYG) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Sterling Shepard got injured 15 snaps into his Week 2 game, and we have had to wait more than a month to see him on a football field again. He did so facing the Eagles in Week 6... and exploiting their defense with […]

John Hightower (WR, PHI) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: John Hightower made it to the weekly WW pickups column only because of the absolutely insane streak of injuries Philadelphia has no idea how to stop. After losing Zach Ertz in Week 6, WR DeSean Jackson became the last victim this past Thursday, […]

Richard Rodgers (TE, PHI) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The writing was on the wall for the Eagles when it comes to the tight end position practically since the start of the season. The first problem came when Dallas Goedert had to left the third game of the year midway through it, […]

2021 Fantasy Baseball Draft Values Based On Contact Quality

In part one of this series, I established that zxwOBAcon is the primary driver of season-to-season changes in xwOBAcon and that the biggest risers in zxwOBAcon each season tend to be rebound candidates. Furthermore, rebound candidates recover all of their zxwOBAcon losses more often than not and frequently outperform their season x zxwOBAcon in season […]

Warning Signals in Shift Increases: Part One

Shifts work. Not all the time and not against everyone but eventually there is a sufficient amount of data on a player to be able to draw some pretty strong conclusions about what advantages can be gained by shifting.
