BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues  OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: If you need a boost in power production and can afford to sacrifice average, Chris Carter is your guy.

Socrates Brito (OF, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in Mixed Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: With A.J. Pollock set to miss the 2016 campaign with a broken elbow, Socrates Brito's fantasy value definitely increases. The question is how much?

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

Baller Move: Leave on the Waiver Wire  Owned In: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues Analysis: Brad Miller is not off to the start the Tampa Bay Rays hoped for after acquiring him in the off-season. Miller is still hitless through four games, striking out four times over 14 at-bats. Nobody expects him to continue to put up zeros, but […]

Michael Taylor (OF, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Taylor was very impressive this spring, yet he entered the season as the Nationals' fourth outfielder.

Aaron Nola (SP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I seriously want to start calling Aaron Nola "Big Easy." In his season debut against the Reds, Nola made things look easy. He threw seven strong innings of one-run ball, striking out eight Reds. Unfortunately, he couldn't get the win because […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Pick Up In All Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Flea Flicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Boy howdy, did Jonathan Schoop turn his fortunes around in 2015. He followed up a rookie season that saw him hit .209 with 16 home runs in 455 at-bats with a much more palatable .279 average and 15 home runs in […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (4/9/16): NBA DFS Advice

This is the time that you have to check starting lineups 200 times before the games start because teams tend to rest their starters out of nowhere. While this does get a bit annoying and kills fantasy teams at times, it could also lead to a ton of great value plays. Okay, back to business. […]

Anibal Sanchez (SP, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Pick Up In All Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Flea Flicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Once a solid mid-rotation arm, injuries and ineffectiveness have derailed Anibal Sanchez's career over the past two seasons or so.

Chad Bettis (SP, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Chad Bettis was being strongly considered for Opening Day by manager Walt Weiss. Bettis has great composure on the mound and started striking out batters at a mixed-league worthy rate last season (98 K in 115 IP). His 3.85 FIP points to a […]

John Lamb (SP, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: John Lamb had a sexy 58 strikeouts in 49.2 innings last year, but it came with a 1-5 record, a 5.80 ERA and a 1.55 WHIP. He suffered from bad luck in this small sample, and his SIERA was a cool 3.56. Put […]

Jon Gray (SP, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Jon Gray is still a good, young talent who is scrapping his curveball, which is good news for a Coors pitcher. He was strong in his few road starts last year, and could prove to be a sneaky buy, especially as a streaming […]

Sam Dyson (RP, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Sam Dyson is an under-the-radar guy with plus swing-and-miss stuff, and can be mighty useful for owners looking to anchor their ratios in deeper leagues.

Carson Smith (RP, BOS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 9% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Carson Smith has amazing stuff, but obviously is sweating a DL-stint right now.

Shane Greene (SP, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Shane Green teased us at the beginning of last season as well, but he’s having another strong spring with a roughly 30% strikeout rate and improved control. Maybe there’s nothing real here, but on the off-chance he puts it together with his put-away […]

Adam Conley (SP, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 9% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Adam Conley won’t impress you in any one category, but he looks to be a serviceable back-end starter who can post an ERA in the mid-to-high 3’s with roughly 80 strikeouts per 100 innings. He’ll get matchups against Atlanta and Philadelphia, so fantasy […]

Jabari Blash (OF, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Jabari Blash hit 32 homers in 476 PA between Double-A and Triple-A last season for the Mariners. The power is real and he can steal a base every now and again, but if he isn’t hitting a homer then he’s probably either walking […]

Joey Rickard (OF, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 3% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Joey Rickard has played well enough this spring to impress the Orioles so much that he was named their Opening Day left fielder. He brings 20-25 SB speed and average to the table, but shouldn’t be relied on for any real power. Check […]

Jonathan Villar (SS, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pick

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 5% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Many are waiting for Orlando Arcia to be called up, but until then, Jonathan Villar gets to hold down the job for the Brewers. He can provide cheap speed with the occasional home run and has yet to get consistent AB. There is […]

Danny Espinosa (2B/SS, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 4% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Danny Espinosa may not end the season as a starter, but for now, Espinosa brings double-digit pop and non-zero speed to a shallow position in a good lineup. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball waiver wire pickups and sleepers list, updated daily!

Jake Lamb (3B, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 7% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Jake Lamb is impressing this spring thanks to a quicker swing, and looks to join many of his Diamondbacks teammates as players who took the next step forward. His spring numbers show a greatly improved walk rate and a devastatingly powerful swing. That […]

Aaron Hill (2B/3B, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 1% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: As of now, Aaron Hill has a starting job for the Brewers in a hitter-friendly Miller Park.
