Hunter Strickland (RP, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The ninth might go to Sergio Romo should Santiago Casilla falter, but Hunter Strickland looks to be the closer of the future and can post an ERA in the low 2’s with a sub-1.00 WHIP. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball […]

Joakim Soria (RP, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 20% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Joakim Soria has closing experience and would be Kansas City’s man should something happen to Wade Davis. Soria finally got a full workload after TJ surgery in 2012, and looks as strong as ever. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball waiver […]

Vincent Velasquez (SP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Vincent Velasquez has the kind of pitches that can get you more than a strikeout per inning, and that talent deserves to be targeted. Those who play in leagues where wins are big pieces won't be as excited, since he does […]

Aaron Nola (SP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 37% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Aaron Nola logged 186 innings last year, so he should have a strong arm heading into 2016 with no significant limit to him. Steamer paints this picture of Nola: 181 IP with a 9-12 record, 152 K, a 3.87 ERA and […]

Odubel Herrera (OF, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 23% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Odubel Herrera should bat third for the Phillies, and even if he doesn’t have 20 home runs in that bat of his, he could still score 80 runs and knock in 70 more with 20-25 bags and an average that sits […]

Domingo Santana (OF, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 39% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The trade of Khris Davis paves the way for Domingo Santana to have an everyday job where he can flex his powerful bat. Santana is a solid bet for 25 home runs, and while his average will hurt, he will also […]

Alexei Ramirez (SS, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 21% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Alexei Ramirez might not have any power spikes left in the tank, but there’s little reason why he can’t give owners a 10/15/.250 season while hitting in the heart of the Padres’ order. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball waiver wire […]

Nick Castellanos (3B, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Nick Castellanos just turned 24 this March, and he gets to bat in a strong Detroit Tigers lineup. While he probably won’t leap into some 25 home run body, a 50/16/75/.260 line is very attainable. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball […]

Yangervis Solarte (1B/2B/3B, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 14% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Suffering from the disrespect double-down of being a journeyman player who finally got a chance as well as being on the Padres means that Yangervis Solarte comes at no cost. He went 63/14/63/.270 last season and still qualifies for 2B/MI. Check […]

Chris Carter (1B, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 13% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Chris Carter’s average was a horrid .199 last season, and yet he still hit 24 dingers. Look to catch a little lightning in the bottle with Carter, and see if a change of scenery does anything for him. Check out RotoBaller's […]

Nick Hundley (CA, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 19% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Nick Hundley’s 2015 wasn’t a total fluke. He has 15-homer power, his average could be a plus (but don’t expect .301 again) and he even steals a bag here and there. Owners with deeper rosters can platoon him with another catcher […]

Tony Watson (RP, PIT) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 27% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: While Tony Watson doesn’t have strong strikeout upside (62 in 75.1 IP), his sub-2.00 ERA and sub-1.00 WHIP are plenty valuable on top of the fact that he currently sits behind just Mark Melancon for the closer job. Check out RotoBaller's […]

Jerad Eickhoff (SP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 28% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: If Jerad Eickhoff is unowned in your league, then clearly others don’t believe in the ratios from last season and are shying away from the Phillies altogether. Eickhoff’s fly-ball stuff is hard to trust in Philadelphia, but if he keeps his […]

Kevin Kiermaier (OF, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Kevin Kiermaier gets a ton of well-deserved love for his amazing defensive skills, but his bat also has value with some room to grow. Last year, he went 10/18/.263 and could very well go 12/20/.270 with a healthy run total. Check […]

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 19% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Brad Miller is a very cheap power/speed combo guy with plenty of versatility. Tampa Bay should give him steady playing time, something he's rarely seen. Don't discount what a consistent and reliable job can do for a guy. Check out RotoBaller's […]

Travis Shaw (1B/3B, BOS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Travis Shaw’s ownership rate is climbing thanks to the recent announcement that he won the starting job at third base for the Red Sox. He was 22-for-65 this spring, and he hit 13 bombs with a .270 average in 226 AB […]

Devon Travis (2B, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 17% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Don't ever let your DL spots go unused. Stashing Devon Travis will prove beneficial later in the season. Ryan Goins will man second for now, but the job belongs to Travis when he returns. If you can get a piece of that […]

Justin Bour (1B, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 30% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Justin Bour can’t hit lefties (0 HRs, .221 average in 75 PAs), but he absolutely destroys righties (23 HRs, .270 average). If you can utilize that effectively, then you have late round gold. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball waiver wire […]

J.T. Realmuto (CA, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: J.T. Realmuto can contribute in all five categories, but he just won’t excel in any. Getting 12 bombs and 10 stolen bases out of your catcher is a sneaky edge to have. Check out RotoBaller's entire fantasy baseball waiver wire pickups […]

Darren O'Day (RP, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 36% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Darren O’Day posted six wins, six saves, 82 K, a 1.52 ERA and a 0.93 WHIP last year. If Zach Britton goes down, he would become a great closer, but even without that he carries solid value as a ratio anchor […]

Anthony DeSclafani (SP, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only leagues OWNED IN: 27% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Oblique injuries can be quite pesky, but before suffering one, Anthony DeSclafani was looked at as a fun sleeper type. He’ll be back at some point in April and hopefully finds the same success with his sinker and slider that he […]
