Full Story »Trevor Plouffe (3B, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Trevor Plouffe is like a quad-A fantasy player. Good enough for all deep leagues, but not quite good enough for shallow leagues.

Full Story »Phil Hughes (SP, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Filth Hughes is back! Well, with the exception of one solid season in New York, he was barely ever "here" to begin with. Instead of saying he's back, we'll just say he has finally, after long last, arrived and found himself. Hughes, a flyball pitcher who never had hope of […]
