BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It might sound ridiculous, and it probably is, but it wouldn't be too crazy to say Watkins may be already past his peak this year after having a great Week 1 performance.

Full Story »Jordan Akins (TE, HOU) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I know what you're thinking.

Full Story »DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/14/20): MLB DFS Lineups
So, this is a weird Monday slate, with multiple double-headers being played (and ignored by DraftKings). We only seven games on the main slate and lock comes early at 4:10 ET. Weird or not, there still some fun on the slate, although tricky. A lot of the best bats are the highest-priced and you definitely […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's been a rough season for Red Sox pitching in 2020 by just about every metric you can look at. Since Brandon Workman was traded to the Phillies, Matt Barnes is now the one guy to roster out of a bad Boston […]
Full Story »Yan Gomes (C, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups Week 9
BALLER MOVE: Add in Two-Catcher Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Throughout most of his career, Yan Gomes has never been much of a flashy fantasy pick. He's good for between 10 and 15 home runs, with an OK average, but not really much else. Since his All-Star 2018 season, Gomes has been in […]
Full Story »Austin Barnes (C, LAD) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Two-Catcher Leagues ROSTERED IN: 4% of leagues ANALYSIS: Picture this scenario: the 2020 MLB season is winding down, you need stolen bases wherever you can get them, and you aren't fortunate enough to roster the likes of J.T. Realmuto, Christian Vazquez, or Isiah Kiner-Falefa at backstop. In two-catcher leagues where the pickens get […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of leagues ANALYSIS: Jared Walsh is a rare creature, in that, he has been both a successful pitcher and batter throughout his minor league career since entering the Angels farm system from Georgia in 2015.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS: Rafael Dolis had a seven-year MLB hiatus, but after an extended run over in Japan, he has been a pivotal asset in the Blue Jays bullpen for the 2020 campaign.

Full Story »Tyler Mahle (SP, CIN) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: Full disclosure: the main drawback with Tyler Mahle is David Bell's propensity to pull him early, as evidenced by his Sunday outing of 2.2 IP, four hits, four walks, three earned runs, and three strikeouts. In fact, Sunday's game against St.Louis marks the fourth […]
