MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 6

Now this is a story all about how bullpens got flipped turned upside down this week.

Time to jump in and take a look at the Week […]

Digging Deeper: Week 6 AL Waiver Wire Targets

Welcome back to Digging Deeper! I'll be taking a look at some deeper AL waiver wire options for Week 6 of the fantasy baseball season. The pitching pool in the AL is weak. I mean it's so weak that I couldn't find any suitable options at or under 20% owned. So, for those of you in […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire: Catchers

The state of fantasy baseball catchers is pretty dismal. How bad is it? The catching leaders in both home runs and RBIs have half of what the Major League leaders have in those categories. It's not only that, it's that they are so SLOW in getting these numbers.  The rest of your lineup may be […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire - Starting Pitchers

May hasn’t offered much more in the way of sanity than April did, meaning that staying abreast of the waiver wire remains critically important as arms fall left and right among weird performances from names we’re used to ignoring. What’s to make of it all? For our purposes, we’re going to use Yahoo ownership levels […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire - First Base (1B) and Third Base (3B)

Small sample sizes have now become reasonably big enough for us to make some informed decisions. It's unlikely you'll find any potential 30-HR bats still available on the waiver wire at this point, but streaming the right players each week can be extremely helpful even if you aren't in a head-to-head league. The corner infield […]

Welcome back to the Cut List. Each weekend from now until the end of the season, I’ll be offering my thoughts on players who don’t deserve to keep drawing a nonexistent salary on your fake baseball teams. A column like this can be a tricky thing so early in the year. While the sample sizes […]

Buy or Sell - Underowned and Overowned Players for Week 6

It seems that Thames Fever has been replaced by Marwin Mania! In the same way I chose not to go into detail on Eric Thames, I won't regurgitate what has been said about Marwin Gonzalez on numerous waiver wire and streamer posts already. My simple advice: grab him if you can, then sell quickly. Moving on […]

We are through the first month of the season, and bullpens are starting to figure out their real identities.

Week 5 Waiver Wire: Catchers

We're in May now... though it would have been hard to convince the people of Colorado, who were digging out of a late April blizzard. It feels like a lot of the catchers are buried under that snow, because the pickings are very slim. It's tough, because it seems like a catcher will get hot […]

Champ or Chump: Joey Gallo & Aaron Judge

The old saying "Chicks dig the long ball" applies to fantasy baseball owners as well. Billy Hamilton is frequently criticized for offering nothing outside of steals, yet similar players who provide nothing but bombs are not only rostered, but taken inside the top 100. Hamilton goes high too, but at least two owners in every […]
