Carlos Correa Shines In Win

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa hit a three-run home run to key the Astros to an 11-4 win over the Tigers on Tuesday. Correa went 2-for-5 in the game, adding a triple, scoring two runs and now has hits in each of his last four games. Correa is finally healthy and now is slugging .589 […]

Andrelton Simmons Hitting Cleanup Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels shortstop Andrelton Simmons will hit cleanup Wednesday against right-hander Kyle Gibson and the Twins. Simmons is the hottest hitter on the Angels right now, going 12-for-27 (.444) over the course of his current seven-game hitting streak. Simmons now has hits in 17 of his last 18 games, raising his average from .258 […]

Trea Turner Set To Begin Rehab Assignment

Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner, who has only played four games this season, is set to begin a rehabilitation assignment tonight with Single-A Potomac.

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (5/14/19): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Welcome to Tuesday baseball! We have three awkwardly schedules game before 7:05, but are looking at a fun 12 game main slate. We have a ton of pricey pitching options to decipher through, and just as many below average arms to pick on. We then have Ryan Carpenter, who everybody is going to want to […]

Francisco Lindor Goes Yard on Monday Night

Cleveland Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor hit a lead off home run on Monday, finishing 2-for-2 with a walk, a run scored, and two RBI. Lindor has somewhat quietly raised his slash line to .296/.333/.494. It was a slow start, but it looks like Lindor could be back to his All-Star self.

Carlos Correa Hitting .339 Over Last 15 Games

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa went 3-for-3 with a double and one RBI in the Astros 15-5 win over the Rangers on Sunday. Correa has been particularly sharp at the plate recently, slashing .339/.397/.607 over his last 15 games with four home runs and 11 runs batted in during that span. It has been a […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. At Least A Week Away

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. (hamstring) is at least a week away from returning. The 20-year-old rookie is currently in Arizona rehabbing and is currently running at “75 percent.” Tatis has been shelved since April 28 with a strained left hamstring. The Friars top prospect was off to a sizzling start to his […]

Javier Baez Gets Another Hit

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI, and a walk during Sunday's victory over the Brewers. With the two hits on the day, the 26-year-old has now recorded a hit in each of his last 11 games. Next up, the Cubs will hit the road to meet Sonny Gray and […]

2B and SS Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 7

It has been a particularly interesting week in terms of attention-grabbing storylines, to say the least. Addison Russell made a controversial return to the Cubs lineup to a crowd of mixed feelings, Mike Fiers embarrassed the Cincinnati Reds with his second-career no-hitter, and another MLB game was curiously delayed due to a massive swarm of […]

Exit Velocity Leaders - Statcast Hitter Studs and Duds (Week 7)

For this week's Statcast Hitter Analysis, we're going back to where it all started and revisiting exit velocity. So far, we've also looked at barrels, sweet spot rate, xwOBA, and xBA.

Ronny Rodriguez (1B/2B/3B/SS, DET) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: Is Ronny Rodriguez's true talent level reflected in his current .305/.344/.644 line? Absolutely not, but that doesn't mean he can't be useful to your fantasy squad. Even after this hot streak peters out, the 27-year-old may have some sneaky value in deep and AL-only […]

Eric Sogard (2B/SS, TOR) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Since the Toronto Blue Jays called up Eric Sogard to the big leagues, he's done nothing but produce. In his 18 games since April 16, he's hit .328 with four homers, 12 runs, 12 RBI, and two stolen bases. The Jays have […]

J.P. Crawford (SS, SEA) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: The Mariners finally recalled infield prospect J.P.

Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 7

We are just over a month into the fantasy baseball season and it is a prime time to buy in on players whose production could be legit/should be better or hop off a heater before the floors caves in. As we all should know, baseball is a game of ebbs and flows. When there is […]

Fantasy Baseball Op Ed - Game of Thrones Edition

Now that I've already spoiled Avengers: Endgame on Youtube (hey, the Russo brothers said it was OK), it's time to pivot to the other most topical item in 2019 pop culture: Game of Thrones. I admit I'm not an avid viewer of the show, so don't take this as a love letter to the series. OK, […]

The Waiver Wire Watch List: Week 7

As important as it is to be active on the waiver wire, snagging that next hot bat or pitcher on a roll before anyone else can, let's be honest--there are only so many roster spots. That's why your watch list is just as important as your waiver wire activity, and perhaps even more so. Throughout […]

The Cut List (Week 7) - Time to Let Go?

Jonathan Villar Continues To Slump In May

Baltimore Orioles second baseman/shortstop Jonathan Villar went 1-for-5 with a double and three strikeouts in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Angels. The 28-year-old started off the season well but has cooled off and is hitting just .231 with two stolen bases in 39 at-bats in May. Villar is still a fantasy asset given his speed […]

Andrelton Simmons Receives Day Off Saturday

Los Angeles Angels shortstop Andrelton Simmons is out of the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Baltimore Orioles. He's enjoying a tremendous season batting primarily out of the cleanup spot slashing .308/.325/.442 on the year. Simmons' 21 RBI and 18 runs on the campaign are well worth the late-round investment owners made, and he could […]

Tim Beckham is Sitting Out on Saturday

Seattle Mariners shortstop Tim Beckham (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Beckham hasn't been able to do much with the bat lately, so the Mariners will try something else. J.P. Crawford will draw the start at shortstop and bat second versus righty Rick Porcello. Crawford doesn't […]

Points Leagues Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 7

Welcome to the RotoBaller waiver wire column which falls in-line with most fantasy “who should I pick up?” articles with a skew towards points leagues. Yes, there is positive correlation to standard 5x5 scoring but in our format, specific categories matter less and the accumulation of total stats is the ultimate objective. Some stats are […]

H2H Category Streamers - Week 7 Waiver Wire

There are plenty of strategies that fantasy managers explore in hopes to get an advantage over their opponent. Heavy lineup, heavy starting pitchers, no catcher, all (or mostly) reliever staff, no reliever staff, etc. Even if you play a balanced lineup, injuries can cause holes. A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]
