Wide Receiver Sleeper for 2014 - Michael Floyd

  Michael Floyd is Flying Under the Radar, Somehow How is Michael Floyd not being hyped up more as one of the best sleepers to own in both redraft and dynasty leagues?  He was the 13th overall pick in the 2012 draft (could have been higher had it not been for his DUI), had a nice […]

This piece focuses on the best two-start starting pitcher streamers and sleeper waiver wire pickups for Week 20 of fantasy baseball.

FanDuel MLB Lineup Picks, Advice & Sleepers for 8/11

Here are my top value plays for Fanduel today. I did not include the Mets-Phillies afternoon game which is not included on the Fanduel slate. There are a lot of awful matchups, pitching-wise, to take advantage of today. I would recommend a stack of Tampa lefties against Colby Lewis, Rangers righties against Drew Smyly, Twins […]

Injury Bouncebacks, Sleepers and Strategy for 2014 Fantasy Football

“Hey great job cracking jokes and barely giving us any real fantasy insight! Must be a real easy job, ya ninny. Tell me. Why are you only talking about injured wide receivers and not about any other positions?” Hello reader who I just created in my mind (and yes, for those New Girl fans wondering, […]

Rueben Randle (WR, NYG) - Fantasy Football Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~110 (Current ADP 131, WR49) ANALYSIS: Rueben Randle has always been a talent that the Giants liked, hence why they drafted him in the 2nd round of the 2012 draft. The main thing standing in Randle's way of being a high impact performer has seemed to be that Eli Manning has had the […]

Caleb Joseph (C, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / All Two-Catcher Leagues ANALYSIS: Caleb Joseph may be baseball's hottest hitter, with a home run in five straight games now after Saturday night's game against the Cardinals, making him the most recent add to our waiver wire sleepers list. The 28-year-old rookie is a career .268 hitter in […]

Vance Worley (SP, PIT) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues ANALYSIS: Vance Worley has made quite a resurgence with the Bucs this year after getting rocked on a consistent basis to the tune of a 7.21 ERA in 2013 with the Twins. Now back in the National League, he has regained his form, with a 2.43 ERA in 55.2 […]

So how’s your team looking for the fantasy baseball home stretch? Whether you’re at the top of the heap or languishing in the basement, your team can always use a shot in the arm… or in this case, the roster. If you play fantasy baseball, I don't need to tell you that Chicago Cubs prospect […]

Weekend Pitching Streamer Options: The Best & Worst

With the fantasy baseball playoffs right around the corner, every game you get out of your starting pitchers becomes more and more important.

Indianapolis Colts: 2014 Fantasy Football Analysis & Team Outlook

The Indianapolis Colts are emerging as one of the young threats in the AFC due largely in part to the success of quarterback Andrew Luck. For a team that many believe are a lock to make the playoffs, it’s kind of strange that they’ve only produced one player who is a surefire fantasy star. That […]

Travis Kelce (KC, TE) - Fantasy Football Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target in Last Rounds of Deep Drafts / Grab Off Waiver Wire (Current ADP: Undrafted) ANALYSIS: The TE position is extremely shallow, meaning a lower tier TE won't need to do much to be worth of playing time on a fantasy squad.  That makes Travis Kelce an interesting option. With Kansas City as weak as […]

Jake McGee (RP, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Jake McGee is the new Sean Doolittle, and by that I mean he's the new "most dominant closer who also doesn't walk anyone, ever, for real".  Don't believe me?  Consider this: since taking over the closer role for the Rays on June 27th, McGee has pitched 17 innings, during which […]

Adeiny Hechavarria (SS, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues / NL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: Adeiny Hechavarria is not great at any one thing. That being said, the Marlins shortstop has posted decent numbers across the board this season, but nothing totally astounding. With post-break injuries and slowing production coming from several utility players and players in the shortstop position, […]

Charles Clay (TE, MIA) - Fantasy Football Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target around pick ~130 (Current ADP 156 / TE15) ANALYSIS: The tight end position has long been a shallow one at best. Guys like Graham and Gronk seem to dominate that role on the field, leaving other players in the dust – or so it seems. Guys like that are definitely special, but […]

Jason Castro (C, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In AL-Only Leagues, Mixed Leagues With Two Catcher Slots ANALYSIS: The 27-year-old catcher Jason Castro has taken a major step back this year after a breakout season in 2013. In 339 at-bats, he has posted just a .230 batting average with 11 home runs and 43 RBI. He is struggling equally against righties and […]

Will Venable (OF, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Monitor in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Will Venable has been quietly heating up recently, and has found his way onto our fantasy baseball waiver wire sleepers list.

Mark Reynolds (1B / 3B, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In Very Deep Leagues For Power Boost ANALYSIS: This isn't the same Mark Reynolds who hit 44 bombs back in 2009, but he can still drive the ball out of the park. However, that's about where his fantasy appeal ends. He hasn't posted a batting average over .240 since his breakout 2009 […]

Luis Valbuena (3B / 2B, CHC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leauges ANALYSIS: Luis Valbuena is the definition of sleeper.  He is producing at a high enough level to be owned in many more leagues than he's currently rostered in.  Why is that? Because he plays with the Cubs, who have a new high profile, highly touted prospect join the team every week […]

Tommy Medica (1B / OF, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep 5 OF Leagues ANALYSIS: Let's start with the obvious: Tommy Medica is not sexy, as he plays for the worst offensive team in the MLB in the worst offensive park in the MLB.  That's a tough combo to overcome. But he's actually put up somewhat respectable numbers and he is definitely […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 19 (Part 2)
