Garrett Hampson Is Hitting Well

Colorado Rockies rookie Garrett Hampson had quite the false start to his major league career as he scuffled badly at the start of the season, but after a little time back in Triple-A, he seems to have found his swing. Hampson has hit safely in five of his seven games back in the bigs, and […]

Kansas City Royals rookie Nicky Lopez is starting to get the hang of the big leagues. After a slow first month in the majors, Lopez has dramatically improved at the plate.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS: Luis Urias has nothing left to prove at Triple-A.

Keston Hiura (2B, MIL) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 37% of leagues ANALYSIS: This may be the last time that Keston Hiura appears on any waiver wire pickups list - because it looks like the Milwaukee Brewers have mercifully ended the Travis Shaw Experience and now Hiura is seemingly up for good.
