Michael Saunders (OF, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Michael Saunders has always had the ability to be a five tool player but it sure helps to regain your form by getting out of Seattle and being amongst the murderer's row of talent known as the Toronto Blue Jays. Saunders can slot in the bottom third […]


Brock Holt (1B / 2B / 3B / SS / OF, BOS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The swiss army knife of baseball finally has an everyday gig for the Boston Red Sox. If you drafted him late or stashed him as a low end fantasy player it is about to pay huge dividends for you. Boston has had enough of Rusney Castillo's inconsistency […]


Vince Velasquez (SP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: As the biggest prize for the Philadelphia Phillies in the Ken Giles trade this past winter, Vince Velasquez was not only expected to compete for a rotation spot but also to be a major factor early in 2016. Velasquez was nothing short of dominant in his first […]


Joey Rickard (OF, BAL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After spending four years in the minor leagues with the Tampa Bay Rays hitting .280 with a .390 OBP and a .790 OPS, Joey Rickard is now bouncing back and forth between hitting 9th and 1st for Baltimore. Rickard has never been much of a power […]

Three Outfielders Who Won't Return Their Draft Day Value

The outfield is thought of as a deep position that owners will pay top dollar for upper echelon talent. However there are plenty of players lurking amongst these groups that owners will surely overpay for on draft day that need to be brought to the forefront. The list includes young studs, hot off their freshman campaigns […]


Wil Myers (1B/OF, SD) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

Baller Move: Target ~150 Current ADP: 176 The bloom is off the Wil Myers rose after three injury plagued seasons in Tampa and San Diego have derailed this young talent. However Myers gains a whole new perspective coming in to 2016 in not only his new position eligibility but his chance to truly breakout to […]


Cesar Hernandez (2B/SS/3B, PHI) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~380 in Deep Leagues CURENT ADP: 403 ANALYSIS: Hernandez now has a clear path to everyday at bats in 2016 and should bring a nice balance of BA, R, and provide a cheap form of SB production with three position eligibility. Hernandez is going to hit near the top of the lineup and may […]


Clay Buchholz (SP, BOS) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target ~200 CURRENT ADP: 231 ANALYSIS: The question surrounding Clay Buchholz every year is whether this will be the year that he finally stays healthy and produces at an elite level. Clay's 2010 and 2013 campaigns showed owners that he can be a scary pitcher worth owning and reaping the benefits. But on the other hand his […]


Josh Harrison (2B/3B/OF, PIT) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target  ~190 CURRENT ADP: 202 ANALYSIS: Josh Harrison is going to have value once again in 2016 for fantasy owners, due to his jack-of-all-trades skill set that Pittsburgh loves to use. His injury bug is still a cause for concern, but when Harrison does play, he tends to produce at a high level. He has a career […]


Three Starting Pitchers That Will Disappoint in 2016

Some fantasy managers like to go heavy SP in their drafts with mixed results. Hitting flush on elite SP is normally not too challenging, but making sure you get value for that same SP can be the difference between winning and losing your league. The key here, then, is to target the right high-end SPs, and […]


Four First Basemen Who Will Disappoint In 2016

First base is synonymous with fantasy baseball success. Every year, players look for superstar talent or cheap value throughout their draft for this all important roster spot. If the likes of Paul Goldschmidt, Miguel Cabrera and Anthony Rizzo are unavailable to you, the tendency is to reach for supposed upper-tiered 1B talent. This is a […]


Joe Panik (2B, SF) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~200 CURRENT ADP: 218 ANALYSIS: Joe Panik had something of a breakout season in 2015. The .312 AVG, .378 OBP, .455 SLG%, .833 OPS, .363 wOBA and 138 wRC+ made Panik an unheralded monster for the Giants in 2015, but the stat that jumps out most is his 9.7 K% compared to […]


Jonathan Schoop (2B, BAL) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~245 CURRENT ADP: 262 ANALYSIS: Jonathan Schoop opened up some eyes in 2012 in Double-A, where he clubbed 14 HR but also had a dreadful .245 BA. He has come a long way to balance out his game, and his power potential from the 2B position has made the Orioles and many […]


Cory Spangenberg (2B, SD) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~390 CURRENT ADP: 415 ANALYSIS: The San Diego Padres are in full rebuild mode after a disappointing 2015, and the door is open for Cory Spangenberg to seize a full-time role. The 24-year-old now can get out of Jedd Gyorko's shadow and show off his true talent. Spangenberg can have a Logan Forsythe-type of […]


Logan Forsythe (2B, TB) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~210 CURRENT ADP: 224 ANALYSIS: Logan Forsythe got his chance to succeed in Tampa Bay last year after being a utility man in San Diego. He went on to finish in the top five among second basemen in home runs (17) and top 10 in RBI (68). He also had a .163 […]


Starlin Castro (2B/SS, NYY) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~235 CURRENT ADP: 252 ANALYSIS: Starlin Castro has finally moved out of Wrigley Field and into the friendly hitting confines of Yankee Stadium. It almost felt as if Castro just needed a venue change without all the pressure and hype that has surrounded him throughout his career in Chicago. Castro struggled in […]


Raisel Iglesias (SP, CIN) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~130 CURRENT ADP: 145 ANALYSIS: The hard throwing Raisel Iglesias came onto the scene in Cincinnati last season and turned a lot of heads, and he has quickly become one of the most popular sleepers in 2016 drafts. Even though Iglesias went 3-7 in 16 starts last season with a 4.15 ERA, […]


Five Sneaky Second Base Draft Values and ADPs

One of the positions that troubles many fantasy owners at the beginning of the season is second base. Where should I draft the elite players? How long should I wait for middle tiered talents? And finally, can I wait for some sleepers and cover second base later to acquire better talent at a different position? […]


2016 Fantasy Baseball Draft Values? Raisel Iglesias

The hard throwing Iglesias came on the scene in Cincinnati last season and turned a lot of heads within the organization. He also made believers of the rest of the league of his true talent. Now he's one of the most popular "sleepers" in 2016 drafts. Will he turn in a big-time 2016 season for […]


Tom Wilhelmsen (RP,SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Quality relievers are hard to come by this late in the season but Tom Wilhelmsen finds himself in a pretty good spot for fantasy owners to take advantage. Any chance Wilhelmsen has gotten a chance to close with any consistency he has […]


Addison Reed (RP,NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in all SVHLD Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: The Mets have seemed to figure out their hitting issues they had earlier this year and they also have a firm grip on the strength that is their rotation. But who would have ever thought that Addison Reed would be a […]


Angel Pagan (OF,SFG) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Angel Pagan is healthy right now and even though that seems like a rarity he is a must play while he is sitting atop the San Francisco Giants lineup. Pagan has shown off his health by stealing bases like fantasy owners knew […]


Jean Segura (SS,MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Leagues OWNED IN: 43% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Segura has had an overall disappointing campaign that makes his seemingly breakout work in 2013 seem like a distant memory. But the 2015 season is basically over and September surges are just what fantasy owners need this time of year! While hitting […]


Corey Seager (SS,LAD) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It appears that the brother of Seattle 3B Kyle Seager may just be proving the critics right when they said he would be an instant star as soon as he made the majors. Seager has been nothing short of spectacular since his […]


Catcher Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds: Week 25

It is officially playoff season in fantasy baseball across all leagues and finding stop gaps in every position can be the key to advancing deep into the playoffs towards a championship. The Catcher position is often hard to fill or appropriately analyze due to the low number of players that are rostered across your league. […]


Rick Porcello (SP,BOS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Rick Porcello was supposed to be a big part of the Boston Red Sox plans this season and he has fallen short of those expectations. However, Porcello lately has found his way, increasing his K/9 and limiting his ER drastically from even […]


Carl Crawford (OF,LAD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 42% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Who would have thought, after all of the injuries and disappointments and letdowns that Carl Crawford has provided to owners over the past few years, that he would be a viable option for a fantasy baseball playoff run in 2015 for any owner? […]


Mark Canha (1B/OF,OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Mark Canha is the type of player you just can't seem to dislike no matter the slump. He goes out and just works hard and the results have seemed to come for him in 2015. His recent numbers have been nothing short […]


Kelly Johnson (1B/2B/3B/OF, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If someone were to tell you that a veteran journeyman who has struggled to hold down a regular job could help win you your fantasy championship, you'd probably call them crazy. Then entertain the name Kelly Johnson and you might admit yourself […]
