Jake Peavy (SP, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed, NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jake Peavy’s season long starts are terrible, but he’s logged quality starts in four of his past six games, with the two non-QS outings coming against the Cubs and Cardinals. Those are two starts that streamers shouldn’t have chased anyway, so it […]

Tim Lincecum (SP, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed, AL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 34% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Tim Lincecum’s debut with the Angels saw him notch a win over the Athletics in Oakland with six strong innings and two strikeouts.

Cody Reed (SP, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed, NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 32% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Cody Reed went seven strong innings in his Major League debut, striking out nine while walking four and allowing two two-run homers as he settled into his big league threads.

Overrated/Underrated Week 12: Pick Up Duvall, Davis, Taylor

The landscape among outfielders has changed quite a bit since the season started. Half the battle in fantasy baseball is navigating the waiver wire and surviving injuries the best you can.

So I've added two more new segments to this column. We've got the graveyard, and the zombies.

Here we go again with the latest edition of the SP Waiver Wire guide, where we plead with the fantasy baseball gods to grant us the wisdom and opportunity to unearth gold, or at the very least not pick up a ticking time bomb. In other words, we're looking at sabermetrics and utilizing the ol’ […]

Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: First Basemen

First base has generally been where the league’s best hitters are found. These are advanced hitters like Joey Votto, Miguel Cabrera, and Paul Goldschmidt who can hit for power, hit for average and take their share of free passes. They are middle of the order power hitters with 40-home run capabilities like Albert Pujols and […]

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Wright, Lackey and McCutchen

Last week's column was kind of a downer, harping as I did about my least favorite MLB player. This week I figured I should do the opposite and profile three of my favorite players. I'm a sucker for a good knuckleballer (or even a bad one), so Steven Wright continues the trend of a Red […]

Beleaguered Dallas Keuchel May Be Onto Something, To Improve

Can He Return To Form? I won't say Dallas Keuchel is out of the woods just yet. I think it might be a bit of a hyperbolic characterization of his recent success. Even the word "success" is a bit hyperbolic here, but take note: in Keuchel's last five starts, he has struck out 34 hitters […]
