Week 2 Waiver Wire - First Base (1B) and Third Base (3B)

One week down, 25 more to go. It's still a bit premature to react to slow starts or big games, but you may have roster space that needs filling or end-of-roster players that don't need to be kept. The corner infield positions traditionally offer power with the potential for high averages, so you may want […]

Yangervis Solarte (2B/3B, SD) – Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of FleaFlicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Those who enjoy both DFS and season long fantasy know that the Padres will be a favorite team to stream against thanks to their terrible pitching staff. That has also led many to believe that their lineup is equally bad, which isn’t […]

Week 1 Waiver Wire: Outfield

The 2017 season is finally upon us, which means it's time to start overreacting to insanely small samples. Well, no - don't actually do that. As a general rule, you shouldn't be making any drastic decisions at a time when Madison Bumgarner is tied for the league lead in home runs. But that doesn't mean you […]

Travis Jankowski (OF, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed, NL-only Leagues OWNED IN: 8% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Travis Jankowski strikes out too much to hit for average despite his quickness and doesn't have much power, but he does the starting job in left field. He also swiped 30 bags as a part-timer in 2016. Jankowski does get on base […]

Streaming Wars: Waiver Wire Targets for April 5th

Over the offseason, there was much ado about the home run surge of 2016. Would it continue into 2017 or was regression looming? One game into the MLB season, and we already have 30 home runs - a 5,400 home run pace. Yasmani Grandal, Rougned Odor, and Khris Davis have already popped two apiece, as has […]

Week 1 Waiver Wire - Second Base (2B) and Shortstop Base (SS)

Baseball is here! With real games having started Sunday, you have almost certainly had your draft and are in the honeymoon stages with your 2017 team. You don’t want to cut anyone just yet, as you don’t want to be labeled the Overreact Girl/Guy. That being said, there are some injuries that open up DL […]

Baseball Award Predictions that (Probably) Won't Come True

My least favorite type of baseball articles to read are preseason predictions for awards. Nobody in their right mind is going to pick against Mike Trout for AL MVP and there's a very narrow population of players that are considered in the NL. It's not exactly informative to hear someone say, "Clayton Kershaw has a […]

Deep League Closer Handcuffs

"Don't overpay for saves." As dedicated fantasy baseball players, we've heard it a million times. When you start to see closers fly off the boards in your draft, however, it's tough not to pull the trigger so you don't get stuck with Jim Johnson as your lead fireman. There's no need to panic though. Given […]
