Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 13

Now that it's officially summer, it's time to start taking some teams seriously. The Marlins, the Rangers, the Reds, the Diamondbacks: all might be for real. There's still plenty of season to go, but with the All-Star Break approaching and all of these unexpected teams currently in a playoff spot, we can no longer just […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 12

Another week of baseball and we inch ever closer to being able to correctly call these guys the "boys of summer". This week saw two big news injuries in a pair of bullpens, along with a possible return to an earlier pattern in another. A committee got a little more complicated, and a group of […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 11

Another relatively calm week in the league's bullpens makes us think we're in for a wild summer coming right up. The trade deadline should be fun, but baseball will definitely continue to be fun up until then as well. This week, a closer came back from an injury, a closer who was back last week […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 10

Baseball is a funny sport. Some weeks it feels like absolutely everything that can happen happens and other weeks feels like there were barely any games played at all. It's a long season though, and the ebb and flow is one of the things that, in our opinion, makes baseball so great. There was bad […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 9

Another week closer to the season changing and the Boys of Summer are clearly ready for it. Baseball is in full swing and a ton of other clichés. Even with all the rule changes baseball has seen over the past years and even with the emergence of holds in fantasy baseball, closers are still some […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 8

We've all heard some version of the expression, "The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry." Well, if anyone ever needed proof of that one, a quick look at Major League Baseball's bullpens in pretty much any season would relieve any doubt. This week, a bullpen that had finally come together fell […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 7

Sometimes bullpens feel like a daily frenzy of activity where everything is made up and the points don't matter. Other times, things go as planned and your seventh-inning guy gets the game to the eighth-inning guy, who then gets the game to the closer. The closer earns a save and everyone goes home. This week […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 6

April's all done, and the second month of the baseball season is off to an interesting start. All 162 games in a team's season count the same, so holds and saves remain some of the most important stats in the sport. There are few things in sports more deflating than a starting pitcher doing well, […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 5

Another week has gone by and we're almost through the month of April. Baseball's first month of 2023 has been exciting with some key surprises, unexpected disappointments, and of course plenty of bullpen news. This week, the cream of a committee rose to the top, what we thought was a committee might not be, and […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 4

They say baseball is in full swing, but for pitchers, they're hoping it's in full swing and miss. Get it? Do you get it? Alright, if you're still reading, thank you and we apologize. Baseball is in full swing and teams are getting their bullpens more and more set for the long season ahead. Injuries […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 3

Another week of exciting baseball is another week of exciting bullpen news! Some committees are normalizing while others are forming anew, and maybe one is dissolving into a more traditional bullpen? Meanwhile, some managers are doing some weird things with how to choose their relievers. Quite a few closers or committee leaders struggled this week, […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 2

With now nearly all fantasy leagues playing games that count (catch up, tardy turtles!), we'll have our weekly Closers and Saves Report to make sure we help you fully keep up with all the latest bullpen moves and all the latest waiver wire guys who could […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 1

It's the first weekend of baseball and fantasy managers are already freaking out (mostly) about their pitching staffs. The yearly tradition of second, third, and even fourth guessing your draft approach started yesterday as soon as the first pitch of the season was thrown, if not earlier. It's great to have baseball back, and it […]

Closers and Saves Report for Fantasy Baseball - Spring Training Updates (March 24th)

Hot take: The World Baseball Classic was a lot of fun. That really shouldn't be a hot take, but apparently, it is. But now that the World Baseball Classic is done until 2026 and we're back to regular Grapefruit and Cactus League games, Opening Day rosters are starting to take shape. We're a week away […]

Closers and Saves Report for Fantasy Baseball - Spring Training 2023

It's 2023, folks. Two thousand twenty-three. I'm aware that it's basically mid-March, but I'm still a little shocked every time I look at the date. With MLB Spring training in full swing and the World Baseball Classic underway, it's time to take our first look at the bullpens around the league to see what's changed […]

Cowboys Defense Plays Well In A Divisional Round Loss

The Dallas Cowboys defense played fairly well despite a loss in the Divisional Round to the San Francisco 49ers. They allowed just one touchdown, 19 points in total, while recording two sacks. 49ers tight end George Kittle was most of the San Francisco offense, as the Cowboys defense limited the run game and shut down […]

Brett Maher Makes Two Field Goals In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher rebounded fairly well in a Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers. Maher famously got an awful case of the yips in the Wild Card Round, but made both of his field goal tries in the loss. He did miss an extra point try, but it ended up not […]

T.Y. Hilton Makes A Catch In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver T.Y. Hilton made a catch in the Divisional Round, gaining 15 yards. It was his only target of the game. Hilton joined the Cowboys late in the season and showed that he still has something left in the tank. He should be able to find a team to play for early […]

Michael Gallup Does Nothing In A Divisional Round Loss

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup didn't do anything in a Divisional Round loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was targeted three times but couldn't catch any of them, essentially giving up on his first target which led to a big interception. Gallup did well to return from an ACL tear this season, but […]

Dalton Schultz Scores A Divisional Round Touchdown

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz scored the only Dallas touchdown in a Divisional Round loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Schultz saw 10 targets, catching five of them for 27 yards. His touchdown came on a four yard pass from Dak Prescott in the second quarter. Schultz ended up second in catches, targets, and […]

CeeDee Lamb Has A Big Game In A Divisional Round Loss

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb had a big game in a Divisional Round loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was targeted 13 times, making 10 catches for 117 yards. All three were team highs, and he also added two carries for six yards. Lamb had an excellent season and a very good game […]

Ezekiel Elliott Can't Find Much Space In A Divisional Round Loss

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott had an expanded role in a Divisional Round loss to the San Francisco 49ers due to an injury to Tony Pollard (ankle). With Pollard carted off the field, Elliott took over the backfield for most plays, but wasn't able to do much. He ran the ball 10 times for […]

Dak Prescott Throws Two Picks In Divisional Round Loss

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott wasn't at his best in a Divisional Round loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Prescott completed 23 of his 37 passes for 206 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Prescott led the league in picks this season and added two more before wrapping up his campaign. He added four carries […]

Cowboys Defense A Solid Option In The Divisional Round

The Dallas Cowboys defense is a solid fantasy option for the Divisional Round of the playoffs. The Cowboys played well defensively in the Wild Card Round against the Tampa Bay Bucs, which was encouraging after they ended the season with a pair of mostly lackluster performances. They'll face a 49ers team that is certainly clicking […]

Brett Maher Clearly A Risky Option In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is clearly a risky fantasy option in a Divisional Round matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Maher set an NFL record by missing four consecutive extra points before finally making one on his fifth try in the Wild Card Round. While the Cowboys have stated that they will stick with […]

Dalton Schultz Could Have A Big Game In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz could have a solid performance in a Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers. Schultz has gone over 20 fantasy points in two of his last three games, including a two touchdown performance in the Wild Card Round win over the Tampa Bay Bucs. He does have to […]

Michael Gallup Could Excel Against 49ers

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup could show up for a strong performance in a Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers. Gallup was solid in the Wild Card Round, scoring a touchdown and putting up 13 fantasy points in the performance. The 49ers defense absolutely stuffs opposing running games but can be exposed […]

CeeDee Lamb Set For A Strong Game In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is set to have a strong game in the Divisional Round against the San Francisco 49ers. Lamb was a true WR1 all season long and just put up 15 fantasy points in the Wild Card Round win over the Tampa Bay Bucs. For the Divisional Round, he faces a […]

Ezekiel Elliott Doesn't Have Much Upside In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott doesn't have much upside in a Divisional Round matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Elliott had a run of nine straight games with a touchdown near the end of the season despite never particularly running well. That ended in Week 18, and he's combined for a total of five […]

Tony Pollard A Tough Call In The Divisional Round

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard makes for a tough call for fantasy managers in the Divisional Round against the San Francisco 49ers. Pollard has had many elite weeks this season, but he hasn't quite been that elite option as he's worked through a thigh injury over his past few games. He put up 77 […]
