Brett Lawrie (2B/3B, CWS) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned In: 39% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: With Brett Lawrie, we have to take the good with the bad. For instance, even though he is putting the ball in play 7% less often to start off the season, 27% of the balls he hits in play are line... Read More
Rajai Davis (OF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in 14+ team leagues Owned In: 10% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Rajai Davis can always be counted on for stolen base production.

Nathan Eovaldi (SP, NYY) - Waiver Wire Pickups
Baller Move: Add in 14+ team leagues Owned In: 13% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: While pitching in a park such as Yankee Stadium, a HR/9 of 1.5 shouldn't come as a big surprise, even for a pitcher like Nathan Eovaldi who holds a fantastic career HR% of just 1.7%. In four starts this season Eovaldi... Read More

Logan Forsythe (1B/2B, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 46% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: When looking at Logan Forsythe's start to the 2016 season, it is easy to get mixed signals.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: After 20 mediocre starts for Seattle in the 2015 season, J.A. Happ moved to Pittsburgh.
