James Paxton (SP, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: There’s no reason Paxton should be so widely available in ESPN and Fleaflicker leagues. Paxton is definitely what you’d define as an injury risk, but when he’s on the mound he is electric. His fastball sits around 95 mph and results in a heavy amount of grounders, which is key considering the Marinerscommitted the second fewest errors in 2014.

Paxton was undeserving of the loss versus the Angels earlier this week, posting five strikeouts while allowing two runs, four hits, and a walk over six innings. Most importantly, he looked to be over the forearm injuries that delayed his start to Spring Training. Based on the current outlook of the Mariners rotation, Paxton’s next three starts will be @ LAD, vs HOU, and vs MIN. Don’t be frightened off by the matchup at LA. Go grab Paxton if he’s on your waiver wire.
