Articles

Steven Souza Jr. (OF, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 50% of Fleaflicker leagues. EXPERT ANALYSIS: Steven Souza Jr. has been solid this season as he's already posted 10 HR's and three SB's to go with 50 R+RBI and a .256 batting average. Souza has been lucky with a .369 BABIP and I expect his batting […]

Jameson Taillon (SP, PIT) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 56% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Jameson Taillon is expected to be called up to make his MLB debut on Wednesday, June 8th as the Pirates host the Mets at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. Not only is the Mets offense fairly underwhelming, but they'll be coming off of a […]

Jake Lamb (3B, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: Jake Lamb has been very good this season as he's posted an impressive .270/.350/.524 slash line that has helped contribute to 28 runs scored, 10 home runs, 31 RBI and three stolen bases. Despite all of these numbers, Lamb is still available […]

Melvin Upton Jr. (OF, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 31% of Fleaflicker leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: Melvin Upton has had a rough time at the plate since signing that big contract with the Braves back in 2013, but he has made great strides in turning his career around. The artist formerly known as BJ has been solid this year in […]

Leonys Martin (OF, SEA) - Wavier Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED IN: 36% of Fleaflicker leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: Leonys Martin was on fire before his hamstring injury as he stormed out of the gates to the tune of a 22 runs scored, nine home runs, 20 RBI, and eight stolen bases in just 167 plate appearances across 44 games. Currently on the DL […]

James Paxton (SP, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Fleaflicker leagues EXPERT ANALYSIS: James Paxton looked great on Monday as he allowed three runs (one earned) on five hits (including a home run) and a walk while striking out 10 Cleveland Indians. This was a welcome sight for Paxton and his owners in the fake […]

Sam Dyson (RP, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Sam Dyson was the closer for the Rangers last season in the playoffs after Shawn Tolleson had a string of bad outings. After being reinserted into the closing role this season Tolleson is again struggling and on Tuesday he gave up a walk-off grand […]

Joe Panik (2B, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues. OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Panik has impressed with five HR and two SB through only 34 games and 149 plate appearances. While his batting average is way down, it is mostly due to an unfortunate .255 BABIP. As his BABIP rises to meet his career averages or even exceed them, […]

Kevin Pillar (OF, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues. OWNED IN: 53% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: After a rock solid 2015 campaign that saw Pillar go 12/25 with 76 runs scored, many had high expectations for him in the fake game in 2016. Unfortunately, much of his value has been depressed this season because he's hit near the bottom of the […]

Yasmany Tomas (OF/3B, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in every size league. OWNED IN: 59% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Last season it appeared that Tomas was a better hitter than most thought, but that his immense raw power was miles away from actually playing in game. This season is a totally different story. Not only does Tomas still appear to be a strong […]

Domingo Santana (OF, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in every size league. OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Santana missed about a week due to a sore shoulder but he is back playing the field and hitting atop the Brewers lineup. The combination of the batting position and a healthy .360 OBP% has helped Domingo post fifteen runs scored along […]

Rick Porcello (SP, BOS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Rick Porcello is 4-0 with an outstanding 10.52 K/9 (way higher than his career highs) and a meager 1.75 BB/9 which is slightly lower than his career best. While these are very good numbers they are surrounded by some unsustainable ones, as Porcello currently […]

Kevin Kiermaier (OF, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Kevin Kiermaier has flashed some pop early on this season as he already has three HR to go with an ISO of .228, which is by far a career high. While I expect that to come down a bit I also expect Kiermaier's batting […]

Chris Carter (1B, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 31% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Chris Carter has always had a ton of power that has translated into big HR numbers when he's had significant playing time. In 2015 Carter had 24 HR despite only posting 460 plate appearances across 129 games. In 2014 Carter had 572 at bats […]

Anthony DeSclafani (SP, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 24% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Anthony DeSclafani looks like a possible breakout candidate as he changed his pitch mix and usage over the last two months of the 2015 season that allowed him to notch a 9.1 K/9 to go with a BB/9 of just 1.3. Continuing to throw […]

Joe Panik (2B, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues. OWNED IN: 53% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Joe Panik has already smacked three HR and stolen a base over the first 19 games of the season. He's also scored 13 times and driven in 11 RBI. Unfortunately I don't expect this power surge to continue as Panik's current ISO of .200 […]

Byron Buxton (OF, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues. Owned in: 34% of Flea-flicker leagues. Analysis: Byron Buxton has been scuffling at the plate this season as he's posted an atrocious 45.5 K% through his first 44 plate appearances. Meanwhile his BB% is a measly 4.5%. Most of the time this type of production would scare me off, but […]

Nick Hundley (C, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues. Owned in: 22% of Flea-flicker leagues. Analysis: Nick Hundley is scheduled to begin his rehab at Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday as he works his way back from a concussion.  Although Hundley won't likely help you win your league he is still quite valuable in the fantasy game and especially in […]

Marcus Semien (SS, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE:  Add in every size league. OWNED IN: 46% of Fleaflicker leagues. ANALYSIS: Coming into the 2016 season several experts, including myself, tabbed Marcus Semien to have a breakout season. This is largely due to the fact that Marcus posted very good numbers at the beginning and end of the 2015 campaign as he cracked six […]

J.T. Realmuto (C, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues. Owned in: 43% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Realmuto posted 10 homers and eight steals with 96 R+RBI last season despite only playing in 126 games and gathering 467 plate appearances. At just 25 years old I expect him to improve on those numbers this year. If you need a catcher in any 12-team league or larger, Realmuto's limited […]

Domingo Santana (OF, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 37% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Santana has been leading off for the Brew Crew this season because he showed strong OBP skills in the minor leagues. Those skills have also been flashed at the major league level. While there are still large concerns with Domingo's ability to make consistent contact, his ability […]

Scooter Gennett (2B, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 12% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Scooter Gennett has started off the 2016 season blazing hot as he's now 7/17 with three homers. While Steamer and ZiPS project just six and 10 homers (respectively) this season to go with four or five stolen bases, I'm a little more aggressive with my predictions. I think […]

Nick Hundley (C, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 45% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Hundley appears to be a boring 32-year-old catcher, but many overlook the 10 homers, five steals, 88 R+RBI and .301 batting average he posted last season. Those numbers are very useful in any 12-team league and larger, and especially in 2 catcher leagues of any […]

Tyler White (1B/3B, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 65% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Tyler White has started the 2016 season off in spectacular fashion with 10 hits, three homers and nine RBI heading through one week. While White has been a fun story thus far, I do not expect that story to continue for long. Even though Tyler has […]

Devon Travis (2B, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 16% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Devon Travis looked dynamic last season before succumbing to a shoulder injury as he posted 38 runs, eight homers, 35 RBI and three stolen bases to go with a .304 batting average. He posted those numbers despite only notching 238 plate appearances across 62 games. […]

Angel Pagan (OF, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 10% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Pagan is again healthy and can usually be found hitting at or near the top of the order for the San Francisco Giants. Although Pagan's skills have diminished with age (he is approaching 35) he still has some value because of his […]

Asdrubal Cabrera (SS, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 20% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Cabrera is no longer the All Star that he once was for Cleveland, but he's still very useful in the fake game. Now starting at shortstop for the New York Mets, Cabrera projects to put up solid numbers at a position where such […]

Alex Wood (SP, LAD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 50% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Wood has now pitched 171.2 and 189.2 innings in the past two seasons while posting an ERA in the high 2.00's and then the high 3.00's. Although Wood's K/9 dropped to 6.6 last season both ZiPS and Steamer project a more useful mid-7.00's K/9 this […]

Nomar Mazara (OF, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller Move: Add in all leagues Owned in: 27% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Mazara was called up on April 10th as the Rangers placed Shin-Soo Choo on the 15-day DL. Choo is expected to miss the next 4-6 weeks and Mazara will play every day while he's out, so the top prospect is now a must add […]

Eduardo Rodriguez (SP, BOS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

Baller move: Add in 12+ team leagues Owned in: 31% of Fleaflicker leagues Analysis: Fast Eddie was very inconsistent last season as he would pitch very well or get absolutely shelled with very little middle ground in between. Despite this the young hurler still managed to post 10 wins with a 7.25 K/9 and a 3.85 ERA across […]
