Shortstop Draft Sleepers for 2020

It is well known that the shortstop position heading into 2020 is really deep. Despite the positional depth, shortstops could dry up quickly if you wait too long to draft one, given roster constraints in many leagues require a starting middle infielder and a utility player. Owners willing to roll the dice until the middle-to-late […]

Yahoo Undervalued and Overvalued for H2H Points Leagues

Over the past week at RotoBaller, we've introduced a brand new approach to preparing for Points Leagues. Typically, analysts give you general points league rankings. We have those as well at RotoBaller. However, this approach falls short. Analysis and ranks must be platform specific, because every platform (ESPN, Yahoo!, CBS, NFBC, Fantrax) has wildly different scoring settings […]

Platoon Watch: Players Who Could Earn Starting Roles

Every season we see fringe players carve out roles on their respective teams during the spring, but in some cases, it's only a short-term solution. In other instances, players wait in the weeds during the regular season and pounce on their opportunity to solidify themselves into the everyday lineup. In this article, we’ll look at […]

One Adjustment Away: First Strike% and Potential K Risers

I'd just like to start by saying that I'm incredibly excited about joining the RotoBaller team this season for MLB and MLB DFS content. We have assembled some of the best fantasy minds in the industry, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to "geek out" to baseball statistics and try to give you […]

Relief Pitcher Draft Sleepers for 2020

Is there a more frustrating fantasy category than saves? Time and time again, we spend top draft capital on purported "lock-down" closers only to see them lose their roles before May. Based on experience, it is best to wait out closer runs and, instead, target relief sleepers by identifying and drafting for talent over the […]

First Base Draft Sleepers for 2020

First base has historically been a deep position in fantasy baseball. However, in recent years, we've seen it become a lot more top-heavy with only five to seven players giving us a warm and fuzzy feeling if we're able to draft them as our starting first baseman. That's why it's even more important this year […]

Stock Your Dynasty Farm: NL West Prospect Sleepers

As a self-diagnosed prospect nut, I am constantly reading and looking at young players to gain an edge in my various dynasty, Ottoneu, and deep redraft leagues. It would be a shame if all this work only benefited me, so my friends at RotoBaller would like to present to you my favorite under-the-radar players that […]

Third Base Deep Sleepers for 2020

Third base is arguably the deepest position in fantasy baseball, making the position ripe for late-round gems and sleepers. The considerable depth at the 3B position allows fantasy owners to sit back and wait rather than drafting one in earlier rounds. Indeed, the 25 third basemen drafted within the first 200 picks by ADP are […]

Shortstops Set to Break Out in 2020

The shortstop position is so deep this season. Breakout targets will likely be late-round picks or maybe not even drafted in most leagues. Some players might even be better left on the watchlist of the waiver wire. In years past, we've seen the likes of Jorge Polanco, Tim Anderson, and Marcus Semien all break out […]

Auction Draft Pitching Targets Under $10

The strategy necessary to participate in an auction draft dwarfs that needed for a standard snake draft. While the difficulty level is ramped up, so too are the options and flexibility available to each owner. If someone wants to break the bank for the top three players in baseball, go crazy. No matter someone's plan […]

Finding Late-Round Value for Batting Average

Batting average can be the most difficult of the standard rotisserie categories to manage. Sure, stolen bases are scarcer, and home runs require a higher total to be competitive, but batting average is a different beast. Unlike counting stats, you can never get to a certain projected total and call it quits on targeting that […]

ESPN Undervalued and Overvalued for H2H Points Leagues

Over the past couple weeks at RotoBaller, we've introduced a brand new approach to preparing for Points Leagues. Typically, analysts give you general points league rankings. We have those as well at RotoBaller. However, this approach falls short.

Outfielders Ready to Break Out in 2020

Spring training is no more and the season has been delayed. That may unfortunately delay the ascent of budding young stars who were performing well this preseason and cementing a role on their team's Major League roster. Every fantasy baseball manager yearns to find the coveted breakout star; each of these players could potentially fit […]

September Power Surges That Might Be For Real

As we all sit and overanalyze spring training at-bats and pitch mixes, it's important to remember that the small sample sizes of a few half-games against essentially AAAA talent can often be misleading. Instead, I find it's far more telling to use late-season changes from the year before to try to identify who has made […]

Late-Round Relievers - Targets and Avoids in 2020

Once you reach the middle-to-late rounds of drafts, it would be smart to consider drafting some upside fliers that can provide a great return on value. You can take a risk or two on a variety of different players, including a prospect, forgotten veterans, players returning from injuries, or even players with skills but have […]

We are inching closer and closer to Opening Day for the 2020 MLB season. That means that the Minor League season is also just around the corner. With that comes exciting new breakout prospects, as they rise up from both likely, and unlikely, places. In the past few years, I’ve recommended a number of key […]

Platoon Watch: Part-Time Outfielders Worth Rostering

As we head into the 2020 season, it should be no surprise that the deepest position in fantasy baseball remains the outfield. If you are in shallow leagues, you need not worry about selecting an outfielder with question marks regarding playing time. But, if you are in a deep mixed league, an AL-only league, or […]

2020 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers - Sam Hilliard

We have reached the month of March, and that means we are very close to the start of the MLB season. Reaching March also means Fantasy Baseball draft season is ramping up. A major part of every fantasy draft is finding value and sleepers as the draft goes on to fill out a team. In […]

Four Late Round Fliers For Home Runs

Last season, 129 Major League players managed to hit at least 20 home runs. The 6,776 home runs hit across the Major Leagues broke the previous yearly record by a whopping 671 long balls -- nearly the same difference between the second-highest year and the ninth-highest year. Regardless of whether or not the home runs […]
