Domonic Brown (OF, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: In case you haven't been paying attention, Domonic Brown (yes, that Domonic Brown) has been on fire recently.

Curtis Granderson (OF, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 57% of Flealflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Yes, that's right folks. Granderson is officially a "must have" in all fantasy baseball leagues. I understand that he is already 57% owned, so calling him a waiver wire pickup is a little bit of a stretch. But at this point, he is showing that […]

Alex Wilson (RP, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues for Saves OWNED IN: 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: After today's trade of Joakim Soria to the Pirates, it was assumed that Al Alburquerque or maybe Bruce Rondon would be next in line for saves.

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Saves Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues  ANALYSIS: Earlier today the current Brave's closer Jim Johnson was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers in a blockbuster trade.

Ken Giles (RP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Saves Leagues OWNED IN: 41% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Philadelphia Phillies just traded current closer Jonathan Papelbon to the Washington Nationals. While setup man Ken Giles is already owned in 41% of fantasy baseball leagues, he is still being written about as he should be grabbed everywhere now that Papelbon is out of the picture.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Heeeeeeee's baaaaaaaaack. The Washington Nationals are calling up Joe Ross again to join the starting rotation, at least for the time being.

Week 11 Start/Sit: MLB Starting Pitcher (SP) Matchups

What’s up RotoBallers. As I mentioned last week, the next few weeks of fantasy baseball can really separate the men from the boys. These are weeks where savvy fantasy owners can make moves to shore up their teams, climb up the standings, and put themselves in a position to win leagues. Hit that waiver wire hard, and don't […]

Week 10 Start/Sit: MLB Starting Pitcher (SP) Matchups

What’s up RotoBallers. It seems that for the first time, in a long time, pitching around baseball isn't quite as dominant as it has been. A lot of the non-elite pitchers are struggling to find consistency, leading to higher team ERAs and WHIPs for fantasy baseball owners. In such times, I find it's best to bench some iffy […]
