Merrill Kelly in Tough Spot Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly will be challenged on Wednesday in a road start against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Kelly has been very consistent of late, posting a 2.75 ERA in six June starts. However, the Dodgers are one of the best offenses in all of baseball and are even tougher at home in Dodger […]

Greg Holland Blows Save Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks closer Greg Holland struggled with his control on Tuesday in a blown save against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Holland retired the first two hitters in the ninth before walking four straight to bring the tying run home. At that point, he was lifted from the game and T.J. McFarland walked in the Dodgers' […]

Digging Deeper: NL-Only Waiver Report for Week 14

xBA vs Shift - Statcast Hitter Studs and Duds (Week 14)

We've looked plenty at expected stats already, so let's switch things up a bit in this iteration of Statcast studs and duds.

Teams also […]

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14

We've entered the second half of the 2019 season, even though the unofficial demarcation point doesn't come until next week. June and July tend to be the leanest months on the waiver wire, as most teams are still trying to win and fantasy football has yet to lure away any of the also-rans. Rest assured, […]

Taylor Clarke Looking For Another Win Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Taylor Clarke will look for a repeat performance against the Los Angeles on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium. Clarke has thrown two straight games of five innings and two earned runs allowed against Los Angeles, the latter start earning him a win at Chase Field. It won't be as easy Tuesday night on […]

David Peralta Resting Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder David Peralta is absent from the lineup in Sunday's finale against Madison Bumgarner and the San Francisco Giants.

On Vetoes

One of the most enjoyable aspects of fantasy baseball is making trades.
