We have an 11 game main slate to get us through the middle of the week, and there are plenty of good options. Pitching isn't super strong, as there are no players over $10K, but some have plenty of upside from strikeouts. Also, plenty of viable stacking options, so might want to take a shot […]

Nate Karns: Are You For Real?

As the saying goes, you can’t win your league during the draft. The moves owners make during the season are the ones that will dictate who wins. The art to winning in fantasy baseball is being able to determine who should be added to a roster and who should be bypassed. In order to do […]

Rookie Mock Draft Recap - Round 2

After a somewhat par-for-the-course first round of RotoBaller’s 2017 Rookie Mock Draft, the second round saw the predictability wear off, as our fantasy experts began picking more based on their intuition and less based on consensus thought. As we take a deeper look into all 12 picks, those dynasty leaguers among us will get a […]

Updated May Rankings and Tiers: Shortstop

The time for chalking things up to “just April shenanigans” has come and gone, and we here at RotoBaller felt that it was time for a rankings update with roughly 20 percent of the season in the books. Kyle Bishop and I felt that the world needed to know what we thought after a month-plus of […]

Nate Karns (SP, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Look past Nate Karns’ 4.58 ERA and you'll realize that he’s got a 1.22 WHIP with over a strikeout per inning (36 in 35 1/3 IP, including 17 in his last 12 1/3 IP) and gets a rather K-happy team in the […]

Amed Rosario (SS, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: While a torn ligament in the left thumb may be bad news for Mets shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera, it could be a huge boost for Amed Rosario and his soon-to-be fantasy owners. Cabrera hasn't hit the DL yet, but if/when he does, be ready to […]

Ben Gamel (OF, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: First Mitch Haniger, now Ben Gamel emerges as a surprising young contributor in the Mariners' outfield. Gamel's road to fantasy relevance was a bit more unexpected, as the former Yankees prospect was in Triple-A to start the season. Numerous injuries forced him into the […]

Yahoo MLB DFS Advice (5/15/17): Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks

Happy Monday morning, or afternoon, or whenever you happen to be reading this. There are seven games on the docket Monday with all of them happening in the evening. Unfortunately only six of the seven games are connected to the GPP's so they're the ones that I'll be focusing on as a result. It's unfortunate because the one game that is withheld […]

Zack Wheeler (SP, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: It's fair to be skeptical of any Mets pitcher nowadays, but so far so good for Zack Wheeler this season. Wheeler hadn't pitched in the majors for two whole seasons until coming back in 2017. While it hasn't been perfect, there are some encouraging […]

Corey Knebel (RP, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: Any time a closer is newly minted, the fantasy community immediately takes notice. Corey Knebel is no exception, as he takes over Neftali Feliz's brief reign in Milwaukee. Knebel certainly has "closer stuff," with an eye-popping 41.1% K%, .156 BAA and no home runs allowed […]

Yunel Escobar (3B, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Yunel Escobar is a solid addition in points leagues due to his lack of strikeouts and ability to hit for average. He has hit over .300 each of the past two seasons to go along with a 11.8% K%. This season his […]

Week 7 Waiver Wire - First Base (1B) and Third Base (3B)

Small sample sizes have now become reasonably big enough for us to make some informed decisions.

The corner infield […]

Updated May Rankings and Tiers: Third Base (3B)

The comedian Lewis Black has a fantastic bit about the dumbest thing he’s ever heard in his life. After relaying the thing in question, he cautions the audience, “Don’t think about that sentence for more than three minutes, or blood will shoot out your nose.” This is more or less how it felt trying to […]
