Full Story »Jeremy Guthrie (SP, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Jeremy Guthrie is on a little run right now, having only given up more than two runs once in his past 7 starts. He also had back-to-back 9 strikeout games which is fairly impressive in itself. I'd be a tad more impressed with Guthrie if he wasn't […]
Full Story »Carlos Martinez (SP, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep / NL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: Carlos Martinez has incredible stuff-- some of the best among young pitchers in all of baseball, even drawing comparisons to Pedro Martinez. Like Pedro, the Cardinals' prospect is extremely undersized for a pitcher. Despite that, Martinez throws even harder than the future Hall-of-Famer who shares his […]
Full Story »Kole Calhoun (OF, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: Kole Calhoun is in a CF platoon with Collin Cowgill; that’s the bad news. The good news is that Calhoun does play against most right handed starters so he’s starting around 3/4 of the time and often enters games in the late innings if he doesn’t start. After missing […]
Full Story »Chase Whitley (SP, NYY) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep / AL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: The Yankees were supposed to roll out a rotation other teams were envious of with CC Sabathia, Hiroki Kuroda, Masahiro Tanaka, Ivan Nova, and Michael Pineda. However, as many of you know their rotation didn't live up to expectations due mostly to injuries. Enter Chase […]
Full Story »Third Base (3B) & First Base (1B) Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13
There are a lot of newcomers on this week's list of potential pickups at the corner infield spots as several players seeing the first regular playing time of their careers are starting to produce consistent results. Granted, there are always more question marks about an unproven player, but there is also more upside. Perhaps more […]
Full Story »Atlanta Falcons: 2014 Fantasy Football Analysis & Team Outlook
It’s no secret that the Atlanta Falcons were one of the most disappointing teams in all of football last season. They had an unusually poor win / loss for the Mike Smith/Matt Ryan era, emerging victorious just four times. Most of Atlanta’s woes, though, weren't due to lack of performance, but rather to the consistency […]

Full Story »James Jones (OF, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep and AL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: James Jones was traded to the Oakland Raiders this offseason and will be catching passes (maybe) from Matt Schau.... Wrong sport? Oh, sorry... James Jones is actually the rookie full-time center fielder for the Mariners and has hit well after getting the call due to inept play […]
Full Story »Dexter Fowler (OF, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Dexter Fowler is capable of double digit totals in both home runs and steals as he did with the Colorado Rockies in both 2013 and 2012. However, in the beginning of the season Fowler struggled a bit to adjust to his new home with the Astros and that led […]
Full Story »Josh Harrison (2B / 3B / OF, PIT) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Josh Harrison was only supposed to play for the Pirates as long as Neil Walker was hurt. However, considering that Harrison has played to a .306/.347/.478 triple slash one has to imagine they'll try to find room for him in their lineup even when Walker returns. Harrison won't […]
