Zack Cozart (SS, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 43% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cozart hit .252/16/67/50/4 in only 121 games last year. He has started this year with a line of .379/1/9/11/1. His .462 BABIP is unsustainable, so his average will drop. Nevertheless, he should continue to produce at a high level, just as he did […]

Joe Panik (2B, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Panik continued his production last week and is hitting .301 (before Monday’s game) all of the sudden with his typical 12 HR/8 SB production. It was only two seasons ago that Panik hit .312 over a 100-game sample, and his line drive (25.9%) and […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team and Two-Catcher Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: When the Brewers dealt Jonathan Lucroy last season, they chose not to fill that void with another free agent.

Aaron Altherr (OF, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues, Monitor in All Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: It's an interesting time to be an outfielder for the Phillies.
