Dynasty Implications - MLB Prospects in the Chris Sale Trade

The Boston Red Sox management woke up on Tuesday and decided that they didn't like the Winter Meetings to be all talk and no show.

Joe Flacco (QB, Bal) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-team leagues OWNED IN: 25% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco started off this fantasy football season very slowly.

Cameron Brate (TE, TB) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team leagues OWNED IN: 50% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: If Cameron Brate is somehow still available in your fantasy football league, you should probably make sure you add him immediately to your playoff roster.

Jermaine Gresham (TE, ARI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Don’t look now, but Jermaine Gresham has been finding the end zone as often as the top tight ends in the NFL lately.

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ladarius Green has now proven that the injured ankle that forced him to miss the first half of the season is no longer injured.

Dennis Pitta (TE, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Dennis Pitta had not scored a touchdown since 2013 and had only one multi-touchdown game to his credit during his entering the NFL in 2010, so it made perfect sense for him to catch two touchdown tosses from Joe Flacco against Miami’s ninth-ranked pass defense this past […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 39% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jared Cook’s fantasy value is bipolar.
