Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 22

We've reached the point in the baseball season where no matter how your team is doing (real or fantasy), there's a tangible air of restlessness. Is my team going to blow it? After such a great year is it all coming crashing down? How are we going to mess this up? You know...that kind of […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 20

After the frenzy of MLB trade deadline coverage last week, this week took a much quieter turn. We saw some implosions and interesting bullpen usage, but nothing compared to all the moving and shaking we just got past. The Royals have some interesting strategies that we saw them employ this week. The Angels saw a […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 19

The fun thing about baseball's expanded playoffs with the three Wild Cards in each league is that a lot more teams can play like they have a chance to make the playoffs. That's exciting and makes for some really interesting games and storylines throughout August and September. The bad thing about that many teams thinking […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 18

The trade deadline is just a couple of days away and with a lot of teams in the race (or at least a lot of teams who think they're in the race) we could be looking at one of the more active deadlines in a while. It already got started with some bullpen moves, like […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 17

Folks, we are now firmly in the second half with the trade deadline rapidly approaching. Where has this season gone? Have the new pace of play rules crept into our everyday lives and made time pass us by? Has Rob Manfred found a really, really slow way to time travel into the future that only […]

Happy All-Star Break, everyone! It was an eventful, fun, and unexpected first half of the season which has us all set up for an even more exciting second half.

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 15

We had our first bullpen trade this week, a rather mild first step in what should be a very exciting and eventful run to the trade deadline. We also had some committees shape up a little more, and a long-injured reliever made his way back onto the mound then right back off. A closer we're […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 14

Some weeks, it feels like the bullpens around baseball go bonkers and everything happens all at once. On other weeks, it almost seems like the bullpens all took a nice little summer nap in the grass under the warm moon. This week was more of a warm nap. Baseball in general was having a loud, busy […]

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.

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

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 […]
