Carlos Santana (1B, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 55% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Carlos Santana is still powering up in Cleveland with 10 HR in 57 games, a pace that may result in a 30-HR season. His 11.2% HR/FB% and 4% HR% are both right in line with his career averages. The other side of the coin […]

Sam Dyson (RP, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues. OWNED IN: 70% of Fleaflicker leagues. EXPERT ANALYSIS: Sam Dyson has been solid all season and is worth adding in every size league regardless of format. Dyson was solid in a setup role and has been just as good if not better as the closer for the Rangers. He's now up to […]

Jurickson Profar (2B/SS, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 54% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jurickson Profar was supposed to be a temporary call-up to replace the suspended Rougned Odor. The way he's hitting, it doesn't look like he's going back to the minors any time soon. All he's done since being inserted into the lineup is hit safely in […]

Steven Souza Jr. (OF, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker leagues. EXPERT ANALYSIS: Steven Souza Jr. has been solid this season as he's already posted 10 HR's and three SB's to go with 50 R+RBI and a .256 batting average. Souza has been lucky with a .369 BABIP and I expect his batting […]

Rajai Davis (OF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Rajai Davis shouldn't be available on waivers in any fantasy league unless stolen bases aren't counted whatsoever. Not only is Davis second in the AL with 13 SB this year, for his career he averages 48 stolen bases over a 162-game season. He has stolen […]

Drafting Running Quarterbacks in Fantasy Football: Cam Newton, Russell Wilson and Tyrod Taylor

The allure of the running quarterback has existed for years. Randall Cunningham was one of the first true dual-threats at the position in the 1980's and '90s, an era that also produced all-time great scramblers like Steve Young and John Elway. It was the arrival of Michael Vick in the NFL as the No. 1 pick […]

Danny Duffy (SP, KCR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15 percent of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Danny Duffy’s supposed breakout in 2014 was a mirage, built primarily on the back of an unsustainable BABIP. He was more or less the same pitcher last year, but when that number normalized, his ERA rose by a run and […]

Running Back Standouts From the 2015-2016 Season: David Johnson, Thomas Rawls and Doug Martin

The lifespan of a running back, on the field and in fantasy seems to get shorter every season. Simply look at the recent production of Eddie Lacy. Is he capable of resiliency and reestablishing himself as one of the game's best young backs? And then there's someone like Marshawn Lynch, who retired at 29 years old, […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire: Catchers

We're now 10 weeks into the season and the state of catching still leaves a lot to be desired. As of this writing, there still has not been a catcher to crack the 10-homer mark and the top mark of 32 RBIs was 23 behind the Major League leader. One of the main reasons I […]

Fantasy owners needing help should be on the lookout for these potential additions in the coming week. The following players are owned in […]

Week 10 Buy and Sell for Fantasy Baseball

Last week’s recommendations worked out pretty well. On the buy side, Joey Votto hit .318/.464/.727 with two homers and three (!) stolen bases. Scott Kazmir had his outing against the Braves cut short by leg cramps and didn’t post great ratios. He still struck out a batter per inning and got a win, though. Moving […]

Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 6/8/16

Every day, we will be taking a quick look at the best and worst fantasy baseball performers from yesterday's games. Every team was in action last night, so there's plenty to discuss. Here's a quick look at those who impressed on Wednesday, and those who want to pretend the day never happened. Editor’s Note: To […]

Brad Miller (2B/SS/OF, TAM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Brad Miller might not have gotten off to a particularly killer start with a slash line of .236/.290.421, but at least he has accumulated five HR and four SB for a power/speed figure of 4.4 in 178 AB. The power/speed combo […]

Jason Castro (C, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Two-Catcher Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jason Castro has had a strange season at the plate, full of mixed signals. For instance, he has a poor BA at .219, and a mediocre slugging percentage at .391. However, he has a very solid OBP of .355 fueled by a […]

Eugenio Suarez (3B/SS, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 40% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While Eugenio Suarez has been streaky so far in 2016, he has accumulated 13 HR, four SB, and a slash line of .239/.293/.455 in 209 AB this season. It is safe to say that the Reds got a bargain in trading Alfredo Simon […]

Matt Adams (1B, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Another day, another dinger for Matt Adams. After struggling with injury issues last season and managing just five HR and a .657 OPS, Adams has come alive like Frankenstein's monster this season; hitting seven HR and producing a .331/.386/.567 slash line in […]

Five Dynasty Sleepers: 2016 MLB Draft

With the MLB draft just days away and the NCAA baseball regionals going on, it's time to look at dynasty draft sleepers. Guys like A.J. Puk of Florida and Kyle Lewis of Mercer are no-brainers, but there are many other draft prospects who could be big time fantasy producers in the future. After all, not every […]

Jonathan Schoop (2B, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 40% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: When playing on the same team as Manny Machado, Chris Davis, and Mark Trumbo, it is understandable that Jonathan Schoop's power may go unnoticed. So far in 207 AB, Jonathan Schoop has a mediocre .261 AVG and .290 OBP, but he is […]

Jon Gray (SP, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: At first glance, you might not be too excited about taking a chance on top Rockies prospect Jon Gray. With an ERA of 5.33, a 2015 ERA of 5.53, and Coors Field for a home turf, he doesn't exude much appeal. […]

2016 NFL Draft Analysis for Fantasy Football - Wide Receiver Kolby Listenbee

Position, Team, NFL Draft Spot: WR, Buffalo Bills, 6.17 Dynasty Positional Rank: 100+ Redraft Target Round: Unranked, not viable for 2016Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025: 2025 fantasy football rankings Running back (RB) fantasy football rankings Wide receiver (WR) fantasy football rankings Tight end (TE) fantasy football rankings Quarterback (QB) fantasy football rankings FLEX […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Wow, has anyone noticed that South Korea is having a pretty good year in the MLB? That is in big part to the success of newcomer Dae Ho Lee, who in just 98 AB has hit eight HR as well as […]
