Champ or Chump: What to Make of Tim Anderson, David Dahl, and Trea Turner

By this stage of the season, there is no such thing as a perfect fantasy move.

That first group is the focus of this week's column, as we look at three […]

Eddie Rosario (OF, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Fleaflicker Leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: The Twins' youth movement continues to turn things around in the second half. Although he hasn't made quite the splash Max Kepler has, second-year player Eddie Rosario is flashing a nice power/speed combo similar to his rookie season when he led the AL in […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 37% of Fleaflicker Leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: Still in need of rotation help for a playoff run after the Colin Rea fiasco, the Marlins looked to their own bullpen in David Phelps.

Chris Hogan (WR, NE) - 2016 Fantasy Football Sleeper

Jon Gray (SP, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 41% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Not many people believed that Jon Gray could put such a great season together, especially considering his home ballpark is Coors Field.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Travis Jankowski may not have been in the big leagues for the whole season, but he certainly has been running quick enough to make up for lost ground.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: If you, like myself, thought Jedd Gyorko offered valuable versatility as a power hitting 2B/SS combo, then the fact that he is now eligible at four infield positions must really get you excited.

Jorge Soler (OF, CHC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: I bet the Chicago Cubs are pretty happy they didn't trade Jorge Soler to the Yankees right about now. In just 119 AB through April and May, he had a BA of just .202, five HR, and OPS figures of .610 […]

Devon Travis (2B, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in all leagues Owned in: 45% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: At 25 years old, it seems like we have remembered and forgotten about Devon Travis enough times that he would already be a 15-year MLB veteran. Initial disclaimer on Travis: his RHP/LHP and Home/Away splits are a little one sided. He has […]

Yasmany Tomas (3B/OF, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 55% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: It is hard to be such a good power hitter as quietly as Yasmany Tomas has been this year. Tomas has had just one mediocre month, which was May. He had a .656 OPS and a single HR in 79 AB. Other […]
