BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: As one might expect from a team that's emerged victorious in just seven of 22 games thus far, the Mariners don't find themselves with a ton of save opportunities.

Mitch Moreland (1B, BOS) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: Mitch Moreland has been an intermittently useful fantasy bat for the past decade, with four 20+ home run seasons to his credit despite only once eclipsing 500 at-bats in a season. Last year, he hit 19 homers in just 335 plate appearances, and he already […]

Brian Anderson (3B/OF, MIA) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 34% of leagues ANALYSIS: Brian Anderson had a quietly useful 2019 season, producing an .811 OPS, 20 home runs, 123 R+BI, and five stolen bases. So far in 2020, he looks to have taken a step forward. The Marlins had a handful of games postponed due to a COVID […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers! We had a positive Saturday as far as record goes, but losing the 2-unit Padres bet put us slightly negative in units for the day.

Ronald Jones II (RB, TB) - 2020 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~70 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~83 ANALYSIS: Jones only suited up for nine games in his 2018 rookie-season due to various problems ranging from injury to just not being prepared to play in the NFL, and when he did get on the field he averaged an embarrassing 1.9 yards per carry. Last year […]

Building an Optimal Lineup for Sunday's Go Bowling 235 at the Daytona Road Course

The 2020 season has been a unique one by NASCAR standards; no practice, no qualifying, just line them up and race. That methodology is being taken to a whole other level this weekend, as the NASCAR Cup Series will run its first race on the Daytona International Speedway road course in the modern era. Sure, […]

NASCAR Research Station: DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Lineup Picks - Go Bowling 235

On Sunday, we get to encounter one of the most difficult things in NASCAR fantasy: a race at a new track. Technically, Daytona International Speedway isn't new to the circuit.

Tyler Eifert (TE, JAX) - 2020 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~160 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: The problem with Tyler Eifert isn't hard to spot: injuries and health issues. Between 2013 and 2019, Eifert is the tight end with the second-fewest played games while appearing in at least 50 games while scoring 9.0+ PPG. That's only because Austin Hooper didn't debut until the […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 23% of leagues ANALYSIS: In true-to-form, bizarre 2020 fashion, the Baltimore Orioles have gotten off to a fantastic start to the year, winning 10 of their first 17 games. As a result, it might mean that this year we need to pay more attention to whoever is closing […]

Fool Me Once... Sophomore QBs Set to Bust Again

Look at what Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, and Josh Rosen […]
