Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 13 (Part 1)

What’s not to love about Madison Bumgarner? The guy rolls out World Series wins, dominates on the mound in the playoffs, and drives a pickup truck like he’s still living in the mountains of North Carolina. On Sunday, Bumgarner absolutely destroyed a pitch into the left-field bleachers for his second homerun of the season. His […]

Week 13 Buy and Sell Starting Pitchers

Solid showing on the buy side last week, as all three pitchers produced quality starts. Of course, both Scott Kazmir and Carlos Martinez spun gems of their own. At least Dan Haren had the courtesy to toss out a clunker against the Cardinals, although he actually pitched well. For once this season, the vagaries of batted […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers and Advice for 6/27/15

Below are my FanDuel lineup picks for Saturday, June 27th. My goal with these DFS picks, as always, is to try to choose players who will outperform their expectations.

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Billy Burns, Pablo Sandoval, and Albert Pujols

Lately I feel as though I have discussed many pitchers in this space, so let's switch it up a little. This week, I will be discussing all people with bats. I'll also order the players in traditional batting order format: a fast guy will lead off, a contact guy will hit second, and a middle […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 6/26/15

Well, I’m sorry for those of you who went with Gerrit Cole last night. It hurts me to say that I felt an outing like that coming, especially because I’m a Pirates fan. The good news, however, is that outing is out of the way, and he can go ahead and continue being successful from […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 12 (Part 2)

In a shocking turn of Twitter's events, it has come to my attention that the people want to know how well my picks do. So, starting today, I will now be instituting a segment that shows the statistics of my picks. This season, there has been plenty of strong starts sprinkled in with some devastating […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 6/25/15

I was on a roll this past week. I’ve been cashing in tournaments and winning my head-to-heads (you can find me @BellRoto on Twitter and FanDuel and challenge me to a game). Then, Tuesday night hit. I missed with the majority of my hitters, and of course it was on a night when I felt great about […]

Stock Watch: Let's Go Streaming, Starting Pitcher Pickups

We've reached that point in the season when current production outweighs our pre-season expectations or what we thought we knew about a pitcher. The starters at the back end of fantasy rotations are the most volatile assets on the entire roster. They can be easily discarded after a bad outing, or ride a hot streak […]

Three Sluggers to Sell, Three Stars to Buy in Week 12 Fantasy

In the past few weeks, there have been a ton of home runs in the MLB from an unlikely cast of characters. Well, not completely unlikely. In the meantime, the guys you expect to be slugging homers have been cold at the plate. I'm here to tell you how to make the most of these […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 6/24/15

As with every Wednesday we're looking at another full slate of baseball. There's five early morning games on June 24th, so double-check lineups before 12:10 if you plan to play in an all-day league. Big price items include Chris Sale ($11,600) and Gerrit Cole ($11,000). Hard to argue either isn't worth it, so I'll try […]

Minor League Spotlight: Top Fantasy Prospects from Week 11

That trade between the Atlanta Braves and the Arizona Diamondbacks is very odd to me. In case you missed it, The DBacks traded an injured and old Bronson Arroya and 19 year-old pitching prospect Touki Toussaint for utility man Phil Gosselin. That Diamondbacks must have seen something that most people don’t in Gosselin. Or maybe they […]

MLB DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Advice for 6/22/15

With seven games on Monday, June 22nd, the options are only slightly limited. In making the first draft of my lineup, I managed to have a remaining balance of $5,000. This is due to the number of solid value options that are available. The players I recommend consist mainly of infielders, as only one outfielder stuck […]

Top Five Two-Start Pitcher Streamers & Sleepers for Week 12

Quality over quantity. Every fantasy owner knows this. But when looking at the starting pitcher free agent waiver wire for the coming week, ideally you’d like to have a guy that is going to be on the mound more than once. Most teams are going to have a couple of starters pitching twice in a week. […]

Four Contact Rate Surgers to Buy

Fundamentally, baseball is about contact. Perhaps we should ask ourselves, who has improved at this most essential skill? In collecting the data of qualifying players, I contrasted contact rate in 2014 with the current season. Adjacent to difference in contact rate, I compared wRC+ over the same time, and calculated the difference to determine a correlation to […]

MLB DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Advice for 6/20/15

After another night of no sleep and intense MLB research, I have come up with the players and teams I am looking forward to watching on Saturday, June 20th.

Deeper League Waiver Wire: NL Edition (Wisler, Gray, Matz, Siegrist)

A flock of demotions and injuries - both of the serious and nagging variety - have given a clear path to the starting rotation to a lot of studly young pitchers in the National League this season. Plucking one of the aforementioned studs can give you a serious leg up in the competition for the […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 11 (Part 2)

Early last year, ESPN released a 30 For 30 documentary on the bizarre January 1994 attack on Nancy Kerrigan. Tony Kornheiser of Pardon the Interruption fame has gone on record proclaiming that the soap opera writers would have died for a juicy script like the one that unfolded before the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer. Perhaps […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 6/19/15

Now that the league-wide interleague play is over, we can get back to some “regular” baseball. No worries about DH or no DH. No two-game series’. Every team has a nice three-game tilt to end the week. I’m hoping to keep my success going, and hopefully this article can help you do the same. Friday, […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 6/18/15

I just recently had my most successful overall MLB FanDuel night. I only profited about eight bucks, simply because my bankroll is a little low right now, but it was cool to see all three of my lineups cash in tournaments. I took Wednesday night off, as I had to work two hours prior to […]

MLB DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Advice for 6/18/15

As the MLB slowly takes the reigns as the premier professional sport of the summer, highlight reels will be filling up with diving catches, innovative double plays, precise pitching, and of course, home run shots that would make Mark McGwire look like he was playing in a little league. Ok, that last part is not […]

MLB DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Advice for 6/17/15

Typically, Wednesdays will feature early day games and night games giving DFS players plenty of options to no pay attention at work and at home. With so many two-and-two interleague series this week, a good amount of games on Tuesday were played during the day, leaving Wednesday as a primarily evening slate. Rotoballer is here […]
