Milone (Shoulder) Could Return Saturday

Tommy Milone has a throwing session scheduled for Tuesday after his weekend start was scratched due to shoulder fatigue. If all goes well during his throwing session, Milone will likely take the mound over the weekend against the Detroit Tigers. If Milone's throwing session goes well today, he could still start Saturday with Nolasco ready […]

d'Arnaud Sits, Wright Starts Tuesday Against Braves

New York Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud was not in Tuesday's lineup against the Atlanta Braves. Meanwhile, David Wright was back in the lineup after missing Monday’s game. Tuesday #Mets vs. #Braves: Granderson, RF Wright, 3B Murphy, 2B Cespedes, CF Duda, 1B Flores, SS Conforto, LF Plawecki, C Verrett, RHP — Adam Rubin (@AdamRubinESPN) September 22, […]

Adam Jones (Back) Out Of Lineup Tuesday

Adam Jones was out of the lineup again on Tuesday for the Baltimore Orioles against the Washington Nationals. Jones was not going to start on Monday but the game was postponed. This is bad news for fantasy users as one of the best outfielders in MLB will miss his second straight game with back spasms. […]

Braun (Back) Sits For 4th Straight Game

Ryan Braun is out once again on Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs. The Milwaukee Brewers outfielder was sidelined for his fourth straight game due to a back injury which will require surgery after the season. It’s unclear how much Braun will play throughout the final few weeks, which isn’t good news for fantasy owners in the […]

Tulowitzki (Shoulder) Throws With No Pain; No Swings Yet

Troy Tulowitzki felt good after a throwing session on Tuesday. The Toronto Blue Jays shortstop suffered muscle bruises on his upper back and suffered a small crack in his left shoulder blade during a collision with teammate Kevin Pillar last weekend. Tulowitzki has missed eight straight games and counting because of the injury. Troy Tulowitzki […]

Buy & Sell Starting Pitchers for Week 25

Here we are - the last SP Buy/Sell of the season. It seems like just yesterday I was giving you such stellar advice as "trade Zack Greinke" and "buy low on Anibal Sanchez." The lesson, as always: Never trust the experts...or a man in a blue trenchcoat. Once more unto the breach, dear friends.   […]

James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Another week another injury...this one is with Green Bay Packers starting running back Eddie Lacy.  Last week Lacy went down with an ankle injury in the first quarter.  His backup, James Starks, did a bang up job replacing him toting […]

Dion Lewis (RB, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In All Leagues OWNED IN: 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: With LeGarrette Blount suspended and Jonas Gray sent to the waiver wire at the end of the preseason, Lewis looked great in Week 1 against the Steelers, contributing as both a rusher (69 yards) and receiver (51 yards) in his first action since the Eagles […]

Leonard Hankerson (WR, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues (14+) OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: As a Falcons fan, this pains me to say. But it's looking like Roddy White is getting phased out of the offense. When asked about his one-target, no catch performance on Sunday, he told reporters there wasn't any extra attention paid to him by […]

EPL Fantasy Team Of The Week - Match Day Six

  GK – Adrian – West Ham United Adrian was sensational on Saturday, tallying eight saves in West Ham’s 2-1 upset victory over Man City. The Hammer backstop led his squad to its third consecutive road victory, securing second position in the table for now. Editor’s Note: Be sure to check out all of our […]

Travis Benjamin (WR, CLE) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Travis Benjamin has three touchdowns on only six catches through two games, and is clearly the top deep threat in Cleveland. His lack of targets (only four in Week 2) is what’s discouraging, although that could be due largely in part to the […]

Cleveland Browns (DEF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Matchup Streamer (FAAB: $2) OWNED IN: 12% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Talk about a complete 180. After registering zero points in standard leagues Week 1, they put 21 this week. The Browns came out in their home opener, and emasculated Marcus Mariota and the Titans. They harassed him for seven sacks and added three fumbles (two […]

Leonard Hankerson (ATL, WR) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues (FAAB Bid: $3-5) OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Roddy White owners are freaking out. Hankerson was buried in Washington for a while, and never really did anything special. It was speculated that if Roddy White gets hurt, Hankerson could step into some nice value as a WR2 in […]

Crockett Gillmore (TE, BAL) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (FAAB Bid: $7-9) OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Watch out AFC North: Joe Flacco has found his next Dennis Pitta, and he's got an awesome name. Crockett Gillmore has emerged as the #2 option after Steve Smith Sr. in the Ravens offense, and has earned the majority of time […]

James Starks (RB, GB) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues (FAAB: $18-25) OWNED IN: 14% Owned in Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Calling Starks a sleeper at this point may be a stretch, but we're going to discuss him anyways. Eddie Lacy gave fantasy owners a heart attack on Sunday night when he took a rough fall on his ankle, immediately leading pundits to wonder […]

Ty Montgomery (WR, GB) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: This season the Green Bay Packer receiving depth will be tested. With Jordy Nelson already on season-ending IR, his replacement Davante Adams went down with an ankle injury in Week 2 as well. The good news is, the injury doesn't seem to be […]

Shane Vereen (RB, NYG) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team STD / All PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 59% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If anyone has been watching the Giants games, the only competent player other than Odell Beckham Jr. is Shane Vereen. That is why I'm shocked to see that he is only 59% owned in fantasy leagues. Vereen should be owned in […]

RotoBaller Radio is On @ 9:30 PM - Week Four Waiver Wire Pickups & Injury Updates

RotoBaller co-founder Real Talk Raph will be talking all things fantasy football tonight at 9:30 PM EST with co-host and fantasy football expert Anthony Aniano (@AAnianoFantasy), Tuesday September 29th, to prepare for Week 4 and discuss top waiver wire pickups and injury updates.

Eric Ebron (TE, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues as Backup, 14-Team Leagues as Starter Ownership: 32% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Eric Ebron has gotten off to a fast start in his sophomore year, reeling in a touchdown in each of the first two games-- he had one score in all of 2014. His 10 targets and five receptions in […]

NFL Survivor League Picks - Survivor Pool Targets & Avoids (Week 3)

NFL Doomsday has come and gone. Hopefully that will be the last week of its kind this season. If you were one of the lucky to survive this brutal week 2, congrats. Nothing to be ashamed about if you lost this week as more than 80 percent in the ESPN Eliminator Challenge lost in week 2. […]

The Effect Of Tony Romo's Injury (Joseph Randle, Jason Witten & Brandon Weeden)

One broken right foot. One broken left clavicle. One broken offense for fantasy owners to, by and large, avoid. The injuries suffered in consecutive weeks by wide receiver Dez Bryant and quarterback Tony Romo have all but drained the fantasy productivity expected from Dallas. Two words on Romo's replacement Brandon Weeden: stay away. Do not take a […]

Lorenzo Taliaferro (BAL, RB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Lorenzo Taliaferro was seen as an intriguing handcuff option last year for Justin Forsett owners, with strong flashes in a few games. Taliaferro entered 2015 injured and missed Week 1, but this past week he came back and got some goal line work, punching […]

Jared Cook (STL, TE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Jared Cook is one of those guys who seems to put up decent numbers pretty consistently, with a couple real stinkers thrown in. That's the impression most seem to have of him at least. So far in his 2015 campaign, Jared Cook has […]

Brandon Weeden (QB, DAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team / 2 QB Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Yeah, so you're probably not going to want to be scrambling quickly to the waiver wire for a guy like Brandon Weeden. If you are in a deeper league that plays two quarterbacks and lost a guy like Tony Romo […]

Donte Moncrief (WR, IND) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS:  Listen guys, the fact that Moncrief is still so underowned is crazy. This is your last chance to add him, and I'm not sure what half of you are waiting for. Get on it! Don’t panic on the Colts. They have played the two […]

Week 3 Wide Receivers: Waiver Wire Pickups, Adds & Rankings Tiers

Well, well - here we are. Stuck somewhere between recovering from the Week 2 games, and looking forward to Week 3 and scouring the waiver wire to improve our teams. Did your team get hit with the injury bug? Are you flying high and crushing your leagues after two weeks? Either way, we are here to analyze […]

Week 3 Sleepers: Last Call for Tyrod Taylor, Hedging Eddie Lacy

Welcome to our season-long segment at RotoBaller where we will be targeting players owned in 25% or less of Fleaflicker leagues. Matt Jones (42%) and Dion Lewis (32%) make for great FAAB claims, but they're too heavily owned for this segment. Week 2 was not easy on a lot of fantasy teams. Carlos Hyde and Eddie […]

David Johnson (RB, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 58% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Assuming Andre Ellington misses at least one more week, David Johnson remains fantasy relevant. Chris Johnson received the bulk of the carries in Week 2, but the rookie was the more productive of the two backs. David Johnson averaged 8.4 yards per carry […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers and Advice for 9/22/15

What's up RotoBallers. Below are my FanDuel lineup picks for Tuesday, September 22nd. We've got a 15 game night scheduled, with the first pitch is slated for 7:05 EDT. My goal with these DFS picks, as always, is to try to choose players who will outperform their expectations. These players can be high-cost players, or they […]
