BALLER MOVE: Add In 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of leagues ANALYSIS: Is Shaquille Harrison the ultimate Cinderella story of the season? Could be the case, if you ask me. I know, it's only been four games starting for the Bulls lately and another four at the end of November, but there is that. […]

Cam Reddish (SG/SF, ATL): Week 21 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% of leagues ANALYSIS: What if Atlanta really hit the nail in the head with Cam Reddish? What if what Reddish showed during the first two months of the season were just rookie growing pains? Atlanta drafted Reddish just a few months ago and instantly dropped him […]

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: It took what felt like ages, but it seems Harry Giles has finally arrived.

Delon Wright (PG/SG, DAL): Week 21 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of leagues ANALYSIS: I'm writing this just a few hours after watching Seth Curry went down injured in Dallas' last game on Mar. 6 against Memphis. In a match in which the Mavs also missed Tim Hardaway Jr., it felt like a red-carpet ceremony for […]

Four Late Round Fliers For Home Runs

Last season, 129 Major League players managed to hit at least 20 home runs. The 6,776 home runs hit across the Major Leagues broke the previous yearly record by a whopping 671 long balls -- nearly the same difference between the second-highest year and the ninth-highest year.

FanShield 500: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy NASCAR Lineup Picks

As a child, I remember riding with my mom and listening to a lot of crazy music in her car. Two songs that stood out to me the most were "Like The Deserts Miss The Rain" by Sade, and "Ocean Front Property" by George Strait (Two completely different worlds of music). You're probably wondering if […]

Late-Round Shortstops - Targets and Avoids in 2020

Once you reach the middle-to-late rounds of drafts, it would be smart to consider drafting some upside fliers that can provide a great return on value.

2020 MLB Sleepers - Austin Hays

One of my favorite aspects of fantasy sports is the excitement that it can bring to fans that otherwise might not have much to cheer about. Fans of the Baltimore Orioles certainly fit that description. The O's lost 108 games last season and didn't make many changes to the Major League club, with the exception […]

Nine NL Rookies Ready to Leap Into Starting Lineups

Every year, there are those rookies who we expect to make a splash right away; think Kris Bryant, Ronald Acuna, Cody Bellinger, Aaron Judge -- those guys. Once we make it through all the service time manipulation shenanigans, there are always youngsters ready to snatch roster spots immediately, and 2020 is no exception. Earlier this week […]

Joining the Launch Angle Revolution: Potential Power Risers

Launch angle has become perhaps the trendiest stat in all of fantasy baseball. If you turn on any podcast, you hear analysts mentioning that "if a player could only increase his launch angle, he could be a stud" (cough - Yandy Diaz - cough). Often, I think this analysis is oversimplified. Launch angle is obviously […]

Luke Voit (1B, NYY) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~170 CURRENT ADP: ~193 overall ANALYSIS: Voit was never going to sustain his .322/.398/.671 small-sample slash line from 2018, but he remained productive when healthy in 2019. Prior to suffering a sports hernia in late July, he hit 19 homers in 94 games with a .278/.392/.493 line. After returning, he hit […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 21 (Mar 9 - Mar 15)

Depending on your league settings, fantasy playoffs have either already started or are very close.

Digging Deeper Into the Realm of Volatility

Predicting the Top-10 Finishers in ERA for 2020

Earned Run Average (ERA) is one of the most important stats when it comes to pitching. The best pitchers in the league have the lowest ERA, because, quite simply, if a pitcher doesn’t let up runs, they are inherently more valuable. Determining the top ERA leaders for the upcoming season can be extremely useful, because […]

Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Pickups for Week 20

While the NBA playoffs are still more than a month away, the fantasy playoffs, believe it or not, are right around the corner. For some, they start as early as next week.

As the season draws near, we realize suddenly that it's draft season. There is a large portion of fantasy baseball busy with mock drafts, rankings, sleepers, and more mock drafts.
