Jose Berrios (SP, MIN) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

Current ADP: 277 Baller Move: Target ~265 Jose Berrios has shown that he possesses potential ace-like pitch-ability in the minor leagues. In 2015, he threw 166.1 innings with a 2.87 ERA and 175 strikeouts. He proved that he is ready for the big leagues as he dominated Triple-A through 75.2 innings with a 2.62 ERA, […]

NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 3/30/16

Not to be a downer, but there's little matchup appeal in this slate compared to most NBA Wednesdays. That said, since there aren't really any games that jump off the table as ones to load up on players from, perhaps tonight is a night where you can pay less effort in trying to guess what ownership […]

Juan Nicasio (SP, PIT) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

Current ADP: 344 Baller Move: Target ~321 No one has ever questioned Juan Nicasio's ability to pitch, but after posting a 5.03 ERA through four seasons in Colorado, the outlook was not bright. The Dodgers decided to take a chance on him in 2015 and it paid huge dividends. As a reliever in the Dodgers […]

Top 15 Impact 2016 Fantasy Prospects: Outfielders

Last season, several outfield prospects made their debut and impressed in the big leagues. Joc Pederson had an incredible first half (though his second half performance left much to be desired), Billy Burns flashed blazing speed, Randal Grichuk showed some of the power potential he has displayed in the minors, and Michael Conforto provided a […]

Three Catchers Poised to Break Out in 2016

Ah yes, the ol' catcher slot. A treacherous minefield where most people seem to be playing for the "friendliest loss" with who they settle for at the position. Well fear not, as here are three players who are set to breakout in 2016. When I say breakout, I don't mean going from 0-to-100 just like […]

Youth in Revolt: Three Potential 2016 Busts

As the noble poet Flavor Flav once proclaimed, "Don't Believe the Hype!" No sport is more rife with sleepers, prospects, and future superstars than baseball. The NBA and NFL have modified their draft rules to force future athletes to at least pretend to get a college education. MLB still has no problem plucking kids straight […]

Top 20 Impact 2016 Fantasy Prospects: Pitchers

The 2015 season saw several highly regarded hurlers make their debuts, but it also saw relative unknowns have major impacts for fantasy teams.

[…]

Preseason Champ or Chump: Shortstop

There are those who will try to convince you SS is amazingly deep this year. Don't buy it. In reality, it is just littered with guys that have ridiculously inflated ADPs based on unsustainable performances in small sample sizes. My best advice on the position is to wait to fill it, kind of like catcher. […]

Adrian Beltre: Undervalued Draft Day Target

BALLER MOVE: Target ~top 65 CURRENT ADP: 81.6 ANALYSIS: Sure things can be boring. Sure things don't elicit much excitement or get ooh's and ahh's at fantasy drafts. Sure things are often times cheered against, especially at this time of year where March Madness has everyone pulling for the underdog. However, at the end of the day, […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (3/28/16)

Let's be honest: Ranking the best college teams week in and week out is hardly an exact science. Sure, you can take into account won-loss records, strength of schedule and "quality wins," but the fact is almost any team in the upper echelon of Division I can beat any other on a given day, particularly […]

Packers To Sign Jared Cook

The Green Bay Packers have been in dire need for a tight end ever since Jermichael Finley. Richard Rodgers filled in will for the Pack in 2015, most notably on that miraculous TD catch to end the game against Detroit. However, they still needed a tight end who could create more matchup problems. Jared Cook […]

Bullpen Position Battles: American League

With spring training more than halfway through, evaluations of battles within bullpens of the American League have started to clear up. While most teams have established closers that are simply putting in their obligatory work in preparation of the regular season, other teams have remaining questions that are in the process of being ironed out. […]

Four Draft Targets On New MLB Teams

Same players, but new environments. It happens every year. For any number of reasons - including trades, free agency, new team directions, or just plain old chemistry issues -  MLB players switch to new teams in the offseason. Over the years, we’ve seen these moves work out in all sorts of different ways. Now I'm here to predict how some of […]

RotoBaller Rankings vs. ADP: Overvalued Shortstops

Draft preparation can be broken down into three stages. Stage one occurs during baseball's offseason. From November through mid-February when pitchers and catchers report to camp, fantasy owners should be letting all of the offseason information wash over them. Even the most casual fantasy player can handle stage one. Stage two occurs from the time […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (3/28/16): NBA DFS Advice

On a night with 10 games, it might be smarter to round out your team instead of splurging on someone like Russel Westbrook or Kevin Durant. There are a ton of value options that still make your lineup very strong without breaking the bank. It would be wise to target the Phoenix Suns and Minnesota […]

Preseason Champ or Chump: Third Base

Third base is home to two of the trendiest "sleeper" picks this draft season, Kris Bryant and Miguel Sano. I put sleeper in quotes because they both need to hit their upsides to simply break even relative to their current draft day costs. This seems to happen every year with a few young players, but […]

Predicting the Top 10 Finishers for HR in 2016

Chicks dig the longball, right? There are so many freaking players who could hit 35 or more home runs, and I hated having to leave guys like Miguel Sano, J.D. Martinez and Josh Donaldson off this list. Also, Manny Machado, Paul Goldschmidt, Miguel Cabrera, Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant, Kyle Schwarber, Byung-ho Park, David Ortiz, Albert […]

RotoBaller Rankings vs. ADP: Overvalued Starting Pitchers

Fantasy baseball success has a lot to do with drafting undervalued players. An equally important but less heralded draft tactic is avoiding overvalued players. While these guys may put up decent numbers, their current average draft positions do not offer substantial value: ADP (Average Draft Position) is among starting pitchers and taken from FantasyPros.com.   […]
