Baseball is almost here, which means mock drafts are in full swing! The “Experts” have their rankings and projections out, and here are three outfielders who I think are ranked a little too high.    2014 Rankings Analysis - Outfielders (OF) Billy Hamilton - OF, Cincinatti Reds MLB.com has Hamilton ranked as the 72nd overall fantasy […]

2014 Dynasty Leagues: Outfield Keepers

If you are part of a dynasty keeper league you are probably hard at work on your roster and asking yourself: "Who should I keep now”?  Depending on the rules governing your league, you may need to carefully consider which players should remain on your roster. Remember, you will be looking for players with exceptional […]

2014 Fantasy Baseball Impact Prospects: Outfield

Sometimes it's tough keeping up with the year to year ebb and flow of fantasy baseball positional scarcity. Outfield, from season to season, can be maddeningly shallow and frustrating on one hand, and fruitfully overflowing on the other. Looking at 2013 average draft position versus final rankings of fantasy outfielders would lead one to believe […]

Christian Yelich (OF, FLA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Yelich struggled out of the gate, but he has always been an extremely high-end prospect with big time upside. He's finally found his groove: over the past week in 25 AB, he's hit 1 HR with 4 RBI, 4 Runs and 3 SB all the while batting a nasty .480. […]

L.J. Hoes (OF, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting / Add In Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: Seemingly a throw-in player for the deal between for Astros and Orioles for starter Bud Norris, L.J. Hoes is actually a former 3rd round pick who has just taken a little longer to get his opportunity in the Big Show. Now that he's landed in […]

Brandon Moss (1B, OF, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Brandon Moss is still only owned in 48% of Yahoo leagues, and that number is just way too low. Moss has been ON FIRE for weeks now, and needs to be owned in all leagues, at least until he cools down. Over the past 30 days, Moss is batting .312 […]

Coco Crisp (OF, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS:  Although he's had a somewhat disappointing 2013 season, Crisp has 4 HR, 5 RBI and 8 Runs in his past 5 games. He is ON FIRE right now and Coco's tears have been known to vault teams up in the standings. He brings a nice blend of production at the […]

Colby Rasmus (OF, TOR)

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Rasmus had a big night on Monday going 3-for-4 with a HR and 3 RBIs. The inconsistent slugger has 16 HRs and 48 RBIs on the year with a better than expected .250 BA. His plate discipline really hasn't changed much, so it's likely his BA will fall back to […]

Nick Castellanos (3B, OF, DET)

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: The combination of Andy Dirks and Avisail Garcia has provided average-at-best outfield production for the Tigers. And in that connection, I’d just like to remind everyone to watch Castellanos very closely. He brings third base eligibility and will be inserted into an extraordinarily productive linuep immediately upon receiving the call. […]

Leonys Martin (OF, TEX)

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Since May, Martin has become a stolen base leader, with 18 SB, good for top-10 in the AL, despite having 100 fewer AB than most. He has also displayed modest power with 5 HR and a 12.8 HR/FB rate, which projects out to solid double-digit homerun power over a full […]

Josh Reddick (OF, OAK)

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Those of you who persevered through the bad times are finally, at long last, being rewarded with some quality production from Reddick. Those of you who dropped him, well, go pick him up, right now! Reddick is 5-for-12 over his past 3 games with 1 2B, 1 3B, 1 HR, […]

Chris Carter (1B, OF, HOU)

Carter had a monster game Wednesday night, going 2-for-4 with 2 HRs and 4 RBIs. The inconsistent slugger has 17 HRs and 44 RBIs on the year, but he's towing along a .231 BA with those nice power numbers. He's a decent deep league option, but you have to be patient with him and wait […]

Cody Ross (OF, ARI)

Ross has heated up with 2 HR and 4 RBIs over his last 3 games. He had 22 HR and 81 RBIs last year in just 476 ABs, so we know he's capable of hitting for solid power. Ross plays his games in a great hitters park and sees bad pitchers in his division for […]

Ichiro Suzuki (OF, NYY)

Ichrio's numbers on the year are still worse than ugly, but over his last 10 he has 2 HR, 4 RBIs, 6 Runs, 2 SBs, and 12 Hits. Very solid for a 4th or 5th OF. When he arrived in New York last year he was fantastic, and his game has picked up of late. […]

Jayson Werth (OF, WAS)

Werth has been really hot recently, racking up 5 Runs and 6 RBIs over his past 3 games with 2 2Bs and a HR. Bryce Harper has given the Nats' offense a boost and Werth will be one of many beneficiaries. Pick him up if you need OF help as he's only 51% owned right […]

Colby Rasmus (OF, TOR)

For a player with 15 HR and 42 RBIs over 271 ABs to only be owned in 26% of leagues, well, it tells you there's a nice opportunity there. If you can withstand Rasmus's putrid cold stretches, you'll be rewarded with nice short bursts of enormous production. He's a must-own in leagues with 4-5 OFs, […]

Rajai Davis (OF, TOR)

Rajai has 5 SBs over his past 3 games. He's starting regularly for the Jays and he is also scoring runs. What else do you need to know? If you need speed, grab him.

Alfonso Soriano (OF, CHC)

Surprisingly, Soriano is only owned in 46% of leagues. That is sure to go up after his recent stretch. He's got 9 hits, 2 HR and 5 RBIs over his past 5 games. Soriano is a very streak player in his old age, so if you have room for him make the move while he's […]

Delmon Young (OF, PHI)

With a 9 hits in 14 ABs over the last 3 days, along with 1 HR and 8 RBIs, Delmon Young is about as hot as you can be. He is widely available so if you need OF help in a 4 / 5 OF league, he's a solid short term play.

With eleven full weeks of the 2013 season in the books, today RotoBaller casts a critical eye on three players who are on the rise heading into Week 12: 1) Max Scherzer (SP DET): It seems a bit odd to start praising a pitcher with a 10-0 record as a player on the rise, but […]
