Full Story »Felix Doubrount (SP, BOS)
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Doubrount is on a hell of a run right now. Over is past 5 starts, he has gone 33 IP with 25 Ks and 2 Ws, while only allowing 7 ER and 33 baserunners for a WHIP of 1.00. He has been remarkably consistent by not allowing more […]

Full Story »Daily Fantasy Baseball Analysis July 10: Beltre Belting Bombs
Beltre snubbed; Belts Bombs Adrian Beltre is probably the most glaring All-Star snub of 2013. With Miguel Cabrera at third base, Beltre, a future Hall-of-Famer, had no shot of being the leading vote-getter at the position. What surprised me was the willingness of the masses to vote for Manny Machado over Beltre. Call me old […]

What kind of getaway day is this?! It's certainly not a normal Wednesday, with only a handful of day games, so I am going to ignore them altogether for our purposes (OK fine, I’ll throw one play in there for you hardcore Ballers!) . I'm more confident than usual in my picks today, so go big or go home boys and girls! As […]
Full Story »Alfonso Soriano (OF, CHC)
BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: You’d be hard-pressed to find a hotter hitter than Soriano, who has put up a .296/.301/.676 triple-slash over the past three weeks and has slugged 12 HR since the start of May. His 10/77 BB/K ratio is hideous, but we’ve grown accustomed to that over the years; what potential owners […]
Full Story »Jeremy Hefner (SP, NYM)
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Believe it or not, Hefner has been the best pitcher on the Mets– and one of the best in all of baseball– since the beginning of June. In that timeframe, the righthander has a 1.64 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 37/8 K/BB ratio over 44 IP. Those are elite […]
Full Story »Michael Brantley (OF, CLE)
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Brantley won’t blow you away in any one category, but he’s putting together a solid season across the board. Over the last month, the Indians outfielder has hit .281/.327/.494 with 5 HR and 19 RBI while chipping in five steals, and is now on pace to hit .284 […]
Full Story »Ike Davis (1B, NYM)
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Davis is back with the Mets and the only thing keeping him from playing regularly is the hotting hitting of Satin. In 92 PAs with the Mets Triple-A affiliate, Davis went bananas with a .293-.424.-.667 triple slash and had 5 HR and 18 RBIs. He was flat out […]
Full Story »Kendrys Morales (1B, SEA)
BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Morales had another two HR game last night. That makes 2 in the past 7 games. Granted he only had 3 hits in 19 ABs in the middle 5 games, but his 4 HRs and 9 RBIs in the two bookends is plenty of production to hold you over. Morales […]
Full Story »Ricky Nolasco (SP, LAD)
BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Nolasco, just like Hanley Ramirez before him, seems to be rejuvenated by playing for a competitive team for the first time in years. In his first start with the Dodgers, Nolasco went 7 IP with a 5:0 K:BB ratio while only allowing 4 hits and 1 ER en route to […]
