Fantasy Reflections: To Stash A Prospect

Several of the game’s top prospects have already been called up, none met with more excitement than Atlanta’s Ronald Acuna. The consensus best player in the minors finally got promoted on April 25 and is hitting .382/.432/.706 through eight games, with two home runs and five doubles already.

Joey Wendle (2B, TB) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Joey Wendle just keeps hitting – a pair of base knocks on Sunday extended his hitting streak to seven games, with multiple hits in each of the last five games. His season line now stands at .348/.410/.522. […]


Howie Kendrick (2B/OF, WAS) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of leagues ANALYSIS: Washington Nationals second baseman/outfielder Howie Kendrick homered twice over the weekend and extended his hitting streak to seven games in the process. The veteran is slashing .299/.330/.526 for the season, slugging four homers. With Daniel Murphy still working his way back from offseason microfracture […]


Week 5 Waiver Wire - Second Base (2B) and Shortstop (SS)

As we move into May, many of the season’s early performers have been snapped up from the waiver wire. That necessitates digging a bit deeper.

Kurt Suzuki (C, ATL) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tyler Flowers is nearing a return from the disabled list, but Kurt Suzuki is worth adding to your roster anyway. Receiving the bulk of starts behind the plate for the Braves while Flowers has been recovering from an oblique strain, the 34-year-old has continued […]


Scott Kingery (2B/3B/OF, PHI) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 57% of leagues ANALYSIS: If the men who play the actual sport cared even the slightest bit what any of us thought, fantasy baseball would be a rather cruel game. One minute, everyone's touting you as the next best thing and blowing all their FAAB to acquire […]


Eugenio Suarez (3B, CIN) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of leagues ANALYSIS: Eugenio Suarez returned from the disabled list on Thursday, a mere 18 days after breaking his thumb. That's even more impressive than the numbers he put up before suffering the injury. Though it was only eight games, the Reds' third baseman hit .296/.424/.630 with two […]


Franchy Cordero (OF, SDP) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: Injuries have ravaged the Padres' outfield thus far in 2018, opening the door for Franchy Cordero to receive everyday at-bats. Last year, in his first full season at Triple-A, the 23-year-old hit .326/.369/.603 with 17 home runs and 15 stolen bases in just 93 […]


Fantasy Reflections: April Waiver Gems

With the end of April looming, we’ve completed one month of the 2018 MLB season. As usual, there have been plenty of early surprises. Today, we’ll look at five of the best waiver wire pickups from the season’s first 30 days. Four of the five players covered below fell outside the top 400 in ADP, […]


Jeimer Candelario (3B, DET) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 17% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Fantasy owners have been tripping over themselves whilst rushing to the waiver wire to snag Miguel Andujar, but there's another American League rookie third baseman worthy of consideration. Jeimer Candelario has recorded at least one hit in eight of his last nine games, […]


Miguel Andujar (3B, NYY) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 64% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Miguel Andujar's ownership rate has skyrocketed in the last 48 hours, from the low teens to above 60 percent. That tends to happen when a former top prospect for one of the league's marquee teams records a six-game hitting streak that includes five […]


Teoscar Hernandez (OF, TOR) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Blue Jays brought in multiple outfielders from outside the organization this winter, but that wasn't enough to keep Teoscar Hernandez down on the farm for long. Acquired from Houston at the trade deadline in exchange for Francisco Liriano, the 25-year-old hit eight home runs […]


Streaming Wars - Waiver Wire Targets for April 26

Orlando Arcia (SS, MIL) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: After a slow start, Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia appears to be coming on of late. He has collected multiple hits in three of his last five games, and both of his home runs this season have come in his last seven. […]


Marcus Semien (SS, OAK) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% of leagues ANALYSIS: Oakland Athletics shortstop Marcus Semien had a nice little run in the back half of the week. The veteran has recorded multilple hits in three of his last four games, with a home run, two stolen bases, and seven runs scored during […]


Addison Russell (SS, CHC) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 49% of leagues ANALYSIS: Chicago Cubs shortstop Addison Russell does not leave much to be excited about when you look at his surface stats . The Cubs’ shortstop is hitting .219 with zero home runs and just two RBI through 19 games. Take a moment to […]


Week 4 Waiver Wire - Second Base (2B) and Shortstop (SS)

Whether you’re looking for an injury replacement or just trying to shake things up after a slow start, RotoBaller has you covered on the top waiver wire targets. Every Monday until the end of the season, we'll look at the best middle infielders available in at least 50 percent of Yahoo leagues. These are based […]

Fun With Small Sample Sizes - Fantasy Reflections

We’ve talked plenty about the fact that it’s still early in the season, almost exclusively in the context of remaining calm and exercising patience. Enough of that stiff upper lip crap. Let’s take a moment to revel in the loony numbers gifted to us by small sample sizes. Maybe they’re indicative of a tangible change […]

Streaming Wars - Waiver Wire Targets for April 15

Welcome back to Streaming Wars, your one-stop shop for streaming the waiver wire all season long. This article, now in its second year, runs seven days a week.

Nick Senzel (3B, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Nick Senzel is currently plying his trade for the Louisville Bats of the International League, but that could change soon. One of the best prospects in baseball, Senzel was the second overall pick in the 2016 amateur draft and has moved quickly through […]


Aaron Hicks (OF, NYY) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Aaron Hicks generated some buzz as a value pick in drafts this spring after putting up an .847 OPS, 15 home runs, and 10 stolen bases in just 361 plate appearances last season. With a stellar supporting cast around him, fantasy owners didn't […]


Nick Pivetta (SP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Nick Pivetta posted ghastly ratios last season as a rookie (6.02 ERA, 1.51 WHIP), thanks in large part to allowing 25 home runs in just 133 innings. Look closer, though, and you can see reasons for optimism. Pivetta’s 18.2 HR/FB% isn’t likely to repeat […]


Keynan Middleton (RP, LAA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 49% of Yahoo leagues ANALYSIS: Fantasy owners know well at this point how much Mike Scioscia hates them. Since the start of the 2016 season, a whopping 13 pitchers have recorded at least one save for the Angels, more than any other team. Consequently, Los Angeles is the only […]


Everybody Hurts - How Worried Should You Be?

As I usually do this time of year, I've spent a lot of time counseling fantasy owners to stay calm and be patient. A slow start doesn't always mean that a player won't perform to expectations. Frustrating though it may be, you're often better off weathering the storm and sticking with him. Injuries, though? Those […]
