Michael Connors - RotoBaller

53 articles

Above all else I am a huge baseball fan. Have played fantasy baseball, football, and basketball for 15 years. I love fantasy baseball and the keeper aspects as well as the minor league systems. I live in New Jersey but, grew up in New York. I am a very intense follower of all New York sports teams especially the Mets, Yankees, Giants, Jets, Knicks, and Rangers.

Rafael Montero (SP, NYM) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting, Add in NL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: Rafael Montero has been a favorite prospect of mine since he showed us a sub 3.00 ERA last season while racking up 150 strikeouts in the minor leagues. Montero has plenty of upside for fantasy baseball, and is one in a list of potential rookie sleepers for […]

Drew Pomeranz (SP, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Drew Pomeranz was a very highly regarded prospect going into the 2012 season, some had him on their list of fantasy baseball sleepers, but he let down in 2012 and 2013 in Colorado. So with that in mind I wrote Pomeranz off for 2013, as did most owners. But he […]

Cody Ross (OF, ARZ) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting, Add in NL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: Cody Ross is a nice guy to monitor in fantasy leagues right now because a lot of people have forgotten that he even exists, due to his early stint on the disabled list. But once he rejoins the Diamondbacks, he will have instant value because his starting outfield […]

Will Venable (OF, SD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper League, All NL-Only Leagues ANALYSIS: Will Venable is a very underrated fantasy baseball contributor, and at this point is one of our sleepers for waiver wire pickups in deeper leagues. He can be a solid contributor while one of your starters is hurt or not playing, and can be a nice […]

Kolten Wong (2B, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: Kolten Wong is a fine looking second baseman that the Cardinals have been eager to bring up to the big club, but have resisted because he just wasn't ready last year. To be perfectly honest, I'm still not sure that he is ready to be an everyday fantasy second baseman, […]

Marcus Semien (2B / 3B, CWS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Marcus Semien is a name we are starting to hear a little more regularly due to him getting his share of at bats coming firmly entrenched in the 2-hole in the White Sox lineup. His glove is solid, which will keep him in the field even during his struggles, but his bat […]

Garrett Richards (SP, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Garrett Richards is somebody I have picked up in two leagues already based on his spring training and his first two start's numbers. He had a very mediocre 2013 season, but it was in no way bad enough to discourage me from looking his way this season.  Richards has an […]

Jonathan Broxton (RP, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: Jonathan Broxton was not a name I even expected to mention this MLB season. But with the early injury to incumbent closer Chapman, and the floundering of Hoover, Broxton will take over the closer duties once he is activated from the DL tomorrow. Broxton throws hard and gets a lot of […]

Nate Eovaldi (SP, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Eovaldi is a sneaky pickup for owners who like to stream starting pitchers, but even though he is a Marlin, he does in fact hold value. Two starts into the 2014 Eovaldi has struck out 14 batters over 13 innings which is a huge improvement from his 2013 numbers. […]

Javier Baez (SS, CHC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues Analysis: Let me begin with stating this: Baez will be fantasy gold, it's just a matter of when. He has a ton of power, solid plate discipline, and plays a premium position. The Cubs have already spoke to Castro about moving from shortstop to open up a spot for Baez, […]

Jonathan Schoop (2B, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Now that the season is underway, we know which players have made the opening day rosters and Jonathan Schoop is among those surprises. Schoop is primarily a second baseman, but can play third base as well. The one main thing to be aware of with Schoop is that he will most likely […]

Chris Owings (SS, ARZ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Chris Owings is the most popular option for owners who left the draft without a quality bat at shortstop. The main reason he went largely undrafted was because he was in a position battle with Didi Gregarious, but he came out on top and has the bat to stay […]

Martin Perez (SP, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Martin Perez showed his stuff in his season debut vs. the Phillies on Tuesday night, going 5 2/3 IP, with a pristine 7:0 K:BB ratio, while only allowing 2 ER.  That's about as solid a debut as you can hope for from this young but erratic lefty down in Texas. […]

Bargain Bin: AL-Only Sleepers & Value Picks Everybody is looking to find that guy during the draft who might provide you with the unexpected production that will help you win your fantasy baseball league. This is what makes the final six or seven rounds of the draft, and then waiver wire prowling, so much fun. […]

Cody Allen (RP, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues or Holds Leagues ANALYSIS: The Cleveland reliever Cody Allen is coming off of a very productive 2013 season, in which he boasted a sub 2.50 ERA and an impressive 11 strikeouts per nine innings. Those numbers have future closer written all over them, but for the time being he will be […]

Mitch Moreland (1B, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: Mitch Moreland of the Texas Rangers had a bit of a breakout season in 2013, and showed off some of the power the Rangers have been waiting for.  He slugged 23 home runs in 462 at bats while driving in 60 runs. If he can stay healthy he could be […]

Melky Cabrera (OF, TOR) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deeper Leagues ANALYSIS: Melky Cabrera is not one of the names that automatically jumps out at you when you are drafting, but somehow he always finds his way on to some fantasy team in your league. Why? It is because he is an undervalued source of a little of everything. He has had his […]

3B Draft Strategy: Tiered Rankings & What to Look For

Drafting a Third Baseman in 2014 Each position that you need to fill is very important to the overall outcome of your fantasy team, but when drafting your team, you must consider prioritizing which positions are deepest and most shallow talent wise. I’m not saying to draft Jason Kipnis in the second round over Carlos […]

Fantasy Baseball Bargain Bin: 2014 NL-Only League Value Picks

As drafting season is upon us, we all reach that point in the draft where we take a chance on value players. Those are the players who you can have in the later rounds but put up numbers comparable to guys taken in rounds 1-5. Think about it, last year Carlos Gomez was going in […]

2014 New York Mets Top Prospects: Fantasy Baseball Analysis

The Mets may not have been in contention for the past two or three seasons, but the one thing that Sandy Alderson has accomplished is building a very respectable minor league system through a few shrewd trades. Zach Wheeler is no longer a prospect, but Alderson’s deserves praise for landing him for a two month Carlos […]

Fantasy Baseball Pitchers With The Most To Lose

NY Mets Pitching Analysis & Projections: 2014 Fantasy Baseball

Let's face facts-- for the past few seasons, it has not been easy to be a Mets fan. But each season brings hope, and the Mets path to success resides in its pitching staff, which is the team's core strength. The rotation took a serious blow last October when the Mets announced that Matt Harvey […]

New York Mets Lineup Analysis: 2014 Fantasy Baseball

  2014 New York Mets - Lineup Overview 2014 is a season of change for the New York Mets, moving past the anemic lineup of 2013.  The Mets brought in two outfielders each capable of hitting 25-30 home runs in Curtis Granderson and Chris Young. Assuming the roster we see today is the Opening Day […]

New York Mets Hot Stove: MLB News & Fantasy Baseball Analysis

  2014 New York Mets - State of the Team The New York Mets have been getting used to disappointing seasons over the past seven years and quite frankly the streak will most likely be continued in 2014. Just as every other team in the league the Mets have dealt with injuries to important players as […]
