BALLER MOVE: Add in All leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Another day, another dinger for Matt Adams.

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. […]

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.

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 […]

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.

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 […]

Dynasty Review: Deep Fantasy League Advice for Week 10

The MLB draft kicks off in just a couple days.

I know Ed Sutelan is taking a look at a few of the top dynasty assets in the upcoming draft. […]

Jose Ramirez (2B/SS/3B/OF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in all leagues Owned in: 57% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: When a player is eligible at four positions, it automatically warrants attention, just for the mere practicality; but when Jose Ramirez starts his first 165 AB of the season off with a .315/.384/.461 slash line with five stolen bases, it warrants razor […]

Trayce Thompson (OF, LAD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in all leagues Owned in: 20% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: With nine home runs, four stolen bases, and a slash line of .270/.352/.548 in just 126 AB, it is hard to believe that this brother of a "Splash Brother" is making just $513,000 for the Dodgers this season. Trayce Thompson may strike […]

Cameron Maybin (OF, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 54% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Wow. 74 AB into his return from the DL with the Tigers, Cameron Maybin has an eye-opening slash line of .419/.482/.486, one home run, and four stolen bases. The most notable difference in Maybin's performance at the plate is certainly his strikeouts. […]

Logan Morrison (1B, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 15% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Logan Morrison may fly under the radar year after year, but we know he makes the most out of his opportunities.

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: Jake Lamb has been very good this season as he's posted an impressive .270/.350/.524 slash line that has helped contribute to 28 runs scored, 10 home runs, 31 RBI and three stolen bases.

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 31% of Fleaflicker leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: Melvin Upton has had a rough time at the plate since signing that big contract with the Braves back in 2013, but he has made great strides in turning his career around. The artist formerly known as BJ has been solid this year in […]
