Week 11 Outfield Waiver Wire Targets

Welcome to Week 11, Rotoballers. The dog days are upon us. June is when the game warms up, and you need to keep your head up. Remember last season when Eric Thames was the presumptive MVP in April and May, only to crash and burn in June? There's a lot of season left, and winners […]

Week 11 Waiver Wire - Second Base (2B) and Shortstop (SS)

Lately, it seems like every day another fantasy-relevant player suffers an injury. In terms of middle-infield eligible players, Andrelton Simmons hit the disabled list this week with a sprained ankle. Carlos Correa may avoid a trip to the DL, but he still missed half the week with soreness in his side. Given the general deluge […]

Week 11 Waiver Wire - First Base (1B) and Third Base (3B)

The Corner Store is open! It is week 11 and there are still so many good options on the waiver wire. Continue to stay fluid with your lineup and ride the hot hand. Don't get attached. However, make a decision and initiate movement to get that player. Do not let someone else grab them while […]

Welcome back to my hitting streamers column for Week 11, taking a look at hitters to add or stream off the waiver wire for this week's scheduled games. To keep things simple, I pick from players who are 50% owned or less and who play at least seven games in the week.  If someone jumps […]

Do You Have the Need for Speed?

A staple of many fantasy baseball rosters is the speed specialist. In my second year playing fantasy baseball, way back in 2004, I was obsessed with Scott Podsednik. He stole 70 bases that year and was well worth dealing with the .244 batting average and mere 85 runs and 39 RBIs. But that's because Scotty […]

Points Leagues (H2H) - Waiver Wire Adds and Streamers

Welcome back for another week of advice for points league waiver wire moves. This segment will include waiver wire adds, drops, and streaming pitchers for the upcoming week. This article will be geared specifically toward points leagues. Every points league is different, so keep that in mind. Walks and extra base hits are more valuable, […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers for Week 11

Monday sets the tone for the two-start streaming process. When you only have eight games, 16 teams, playing in the first day of the week, it limits the amount of pitchers available in the streaming pool. Thankfully, the quality is greater than the quantity, as you’ll see. We have such strong options that are probably […]

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 11

Another week, another flurry of bullpen activity, some of it which left us with some answers and others which left us with even more questions. A veteran closer in the NL East stepped down from his role while a veteran closer in the NL West returned from a long DL stint, but didn't get his […]

Week 11 Waiver Wire Watch List

Finding players is getting tougher and tougher as the weeks roll by, but hopefully you've been following along and building your watch list into a black book of sorts. Need help in the power department? Have a spot to fill due to injury? Bring up your watch list and don't miss a beat. Highlighted by […]

Holds Leagues - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds for Week 11

While holds are even tougher to predict than saves, the players we’ll highlight today include some elite setup men to target off the waiver wire in Week 11. One-inning middle relievers are the constant sources for holds and specialists can manage to secure a hold even with one out. However, while specialists can get many […]

Week 11 Waiver Wire: H2H Category Streamers

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire - Starting Pitchers

It's that magical time of the season where I start to feel old because we've moved into the "double-digit weeks" when writing out the title. You should have a good idea about where your team stands against the competition, though an unheralded stat in roto leagues with maximums is how many innings you have left […]

Power Risers and Fallers for Week 10 - Buy or Sell?

Welcome to Week 10 of the 2018 MLB season and a new week of our investigation into the steepest power trenders in baseball, whether those trends be positive or negative. As the year rolls into June, the window of opportunity to snag a surging slugger or to deal a down-and-out disappointment grows shorter with every […]

NL-Only Waiver Wire Team of the Week: MLB Week 10

Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]

Relief Pitchers Deeper Dive - Week 10

Today and every Tuesday moving forward throughout the 2018 MLB season, we will take a deep dive into some of the lesser-owned relief pitchers on the market that are worth keeping tabs on.

Updated Catcher Rankings (May) - 2018 Fantasy Baseball

We are a quarter of the way through the regular season for Major League Baseball, so our staff at RotoBaller has updated our rest-of-season fantasy baseball rankings. We are taking a look at catchers in this article. There is a clear divide at this position, which guys who can contribute a lot in the first […]

Waiver Wire Watch List - Week 10 Free Agents

It’s hard to believe we’re through two full calendar months of the season, but here we are. The contenders have begun to separate themselves from the pretenders in both real life and fantasy, but with two thirds of the season left to play there’s still time to make up ground. This week’s theme is certainly […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire - Second Base (2B) and Shortstop (SS)

Being a fantasy writer, like being a fantasy owner, means being wrong on something of a regular basis. So when you nail one, it’s important to acknowledge (read: gloat about) it. If you heeded last week’s advice and picked up the heretofore scuffling Ian Kinsler, you were rewarded with a week in which he collected […]
