Week 8 Waiver Wire: Catcher

It's kind of appropriate that it feels like summer as I write this today. The temperature's in the red and so are the ownership levels of catchers on Fleaflicker. Week Eight is not great. It's like a bad day on the stock market - there's red all over as people seem to be cutting catchers. […]

Week 8 Waiver Wire: Outfield

It's already Week 8 of the MLB season and there aren't many on-the-fence guys left on the waiver wire, at least not in the outfield. Most guys hovering around 50% ownership are washed up, former stars who would do nothing but drag your team down for months to come. However, there are a handful of […]

Some familiar faces return to the list this week. Several players who were identified as sleepers as early as week one in this series are still contributing in fantasy leagues.

Poetry in Motion: The Speed of Jonathan Villar

Jonathan Villar is your National League steals leader. No, really. Villar has 15 SB in 21 attempts and shows no sign of slowing down--literally. Stolen bases are a highly coveted asset in fantasy baseball, as only a precious few players are capable of putting up 30+ SB in a given year. But speed alone won't […]

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Shaw, Shelby and Sonny

Shelby Miller made offseason headlines after commanding an ace's price tag in the trade market. There were plenty of critics, but everyone assumed he would be better than his current performance.

Week 8 Buy and Sell for Fantasy Baseball

Last week’s buys were a mixed bag. Zack Greinke dominated the Cardinals, but Miguel Sano continued to scuffle. He’s still hitting the ball hard enough to anticipate better days ahead, though. On the sell side, Danny Salazar got knocked around by the Red Sox (no shame in that lately) and Adrian Gonzalez’s struggles continued. He […]
