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 […]

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

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. […]

Dae Ho Lee (1B, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

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 […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/9/16): MLB DFS Advice

We've got nine games on the schedule today. All in all, not a bad number of options to choose from for a get-away day. Two of the games are in the afternoon, so I'll focus my picks on the FanDuel main slate that starts at 7:05 EDT. There aren't any true aces on the bump […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/9/16): MLB DFS Advice

There are nine games total on Thursday, but just two of them occur before 7:05 pm eastern time. So, we'll work with the main, seven-game slate. The pitching on this slate is absolutely horrendous. I think your best bet is to play a few tournaments and hope for the best. Trying to build a cash […]

Brandon Kintzler (RP, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brandon Kintzler recorded his first career save on Wednesday, allowing one hit and striking out one as he preserved the Twins’ 7-5 lead over the Marlins. Kintzler spent the past six seasons with the Brewers, totaling just 181 IP over that span, but was […]

Matt Shoemaker (SP, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40 percent of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Matt Shoemaker came seemingly out of nowhere in 2014 to deliver an excellent fantasy season. He won 16 games with a 3.04 ERA, 8.2 K/9, and 5.17 K/B. Last season, he showed flashes of that form, but was too often […]

Michael Fulmer (SP, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 64 percent of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Given how well Yoenis Cespedes has performed since joining the Mets, you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone in the organization who regrets that trade. But the Tigers are reaping the benefits as well, thanks to Michael Fulmer's strong debut. Through his first […]

Domingo Santana (OF, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16 percent of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: A popular sleeper in fantasy drafts this year, Domingo Santana hasn't quite delivered on that promise. That's partially due to a shoulder injury that hampered him for a while before he finally went on the disabled list. He's healthy now and […]

Jhonny Peralta (SS, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After missing the first two months of the season with a torn ligament in his thumb, Jhonny Peralta made his season debut on Tuesday. He makes for an immediate add at a very thin position, as the demotion of Kolten Wong […]

Ketel Marte (SS, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ketel Marte, Seattle’s switch-hitting speedster, had been on the DL with a sprained thumb since May 22, but his injury proved to be very minor— he returned on Monday night when first eligible. After a very slow start, Marte turned things around in […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues OWNED IN: 50% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jurickson Profar's ownership percentage varies across the different platforms, and if he is still available in your league, then now is the time to snatch him up. The once-touted prospect came up initially when Rougned Odor was serving his suspension for the infamous brawl with […]

Chris Owings (2B/SS/OF, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 13% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: While David Peralta did return on Monday night, it won't impact this Chris Owings’ playing time. Owings has continued to hit as the season has progressed, and he currently has his average all the way up to .285 after another multi-hit […]

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 10)

Just to answer a question I have received a lot right at the top: I do not know when the exact Super Two deadline is. The day varies each year and no one has released a specific date for it. Just so you have a general date to keep in mind, last season Carlos Correa […]

Jameson Taillon (SP, PIT) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 56% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Jameson Taillon is expected to be called up to make his MLB debut on Wednesday, June 8th as the Pirates host the Mets at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. Not only is the Mets offense fairly underwhelming, but they'll be coming off of a […]

Archie Bradley (SP,ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: After Archie Bradley took a ball to the face that prematurely ended his 2015 campaign, his future seemed very murky. Could he recover and remain the focused and confident pitcher that he displayed throughout the minors? How much rust would he have […]
