Buy and Sell These Hitters for Fantasy Baseball in Week Six

It's week six and it's raining Bryce Harper home runs! Harper homers, as they are affectionately called in our nation's capital. Now, if you're expecting a passage on how to get the most out of Harper's sky-high value, you're out of luck. This is not a fluke. Of course, one shouldn't expect the young Harper […]

Rangers Activate Mitch Moreland From DL: Likely DH Wednesday

The Texas Rangers activated Mitch Moreland from the 15-Day DL after he had surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, according to Dallasnews.com. The 14-19 Rangers could use the production from the first basemen/DH. Moreland was off to a good start in 2015, driving in 9 with a .302/.393/.457 batting line in 16 […]

Minor League Spotlight: Top Fantasy Prospects from Week 5

I have been very neutral in both of the Bryce Harper debates that have gone on between this season and last season. Last season, people were saying that he was overrated and will never be a great hitter. I knew that was too harsh on him considering his youth and still blossoming career (he is younger […]

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Rankings for Fantasy (Week Six)

It finally happened. Noah Syndergaard was called up to the Majors. Mets’ right-hander Dillon Gee was placed on the DL with groin issues and the Mets decided to give his spot in the rotation to Noah Syndergaard. It isn’t very surprising. Steve Matz has looked impressive, but he doesn’t have the same level of upside. […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 5/11/15

Just a 10 game slate for May 11th, but with no day games scheduled there’s plenty of options for your FanDuel lineup. The pitching options – save for a really expensive Zack Greinke ($10,300) – are underwhelming to say the least. It’s not so much that the caliber of pitchers today are poor, it’s just […]

First Base / Third Base Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds: Week 6

Hunting for values on the waiver wire is one of the most fun, and most challenging, parts of any fantasy season.

Here at RotoBaller, we're always looking […]

Kelly Johnson (OF/1B/3B, ATL) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Johnson was a revelation way back in 2010, hitting 26 homers, stealing 13 bases and posting an .865 OPS as a second baseman. He hasn’t been fantasy relevant since, but he’s tearing the cover off the ball right now. Over the last two weeks, […]

Mark Canha (1B/OF, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 16% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It took a while to make a splash at the show for Mark Canha but make no mistake he is here to stay. Canha is the type of guy to not only have on the field but in the locker room. […]

The Cut List, Week 5: Time to Let These Players Go

Welcome back to the Cut List, the place where I bitch and moan about my terrible fantasy team. Seriously, what is up with Carlos Gonzalez? My season is slipping away with every 0-for-4. So what do I do? I can't trade CarGo now, at his lowest value, so my only choice is to bench him and […]

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Power Rankings for Fantasy (Week Five)

Kris Bryant hasn’t hit a home run yet. Just let that sink in for a moment. 14 games into his career and a big goose egg under the home run total. It will come eventually though, and many more will follow. For now, who is number one in the MLB ready prospect power ranking list […]

Mark Teixeira (1B/DH, NYY) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 67% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: While the batting average might be lagging behind the rest of his impressive statistics, Big Teix is back and finally fully healed from the wrist injury that has hampered his production over the last year.

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 5/6/15

  Another full slate of games on this Wednesday, including three early games (MIA v WAS ; ARI v COL ; SD v SF). We’ve got two aces on the mound (Scherzer, Sale) along with a steady amount of quality pitchers (Cole, deGrom, Lester, Carrasco). I’d recommend settling on one of the cheaper pitching options […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 5/5/15

Happy Cinco De Mayo! Also, sorry for laying a dud yesterday with two of the three offenses I suggested stacking. One due to postponement, the other due to the Yankees not figuring out R.A. Dickey. Everybody plays today and for that I am thankful. A chance for stacking redemption. These options are "like" - not […]

Mark Canha (1B/OF, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Let’s get one thing straight right off the bat: Canha’s power is legit. He mashed 20 home runs last year in Triple-A with a .303/.384/.505 slash line, impressing the A’s brass enough to snag him from the Marlins in the Rule 5 draft. Thanks […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 5/4/15

Eleven games scheduled for this evening, with first pitch at 7:05 eastern time. There's a nice balance of games with high expected run totals and reliable pitchers with strikeout potential to target. Guys like Clayton Kershaw, Felix Hernandez, Madison Bumgarner, Jordan Zimmermann, and Carlos Martinez all take the bump, and yet there are still a […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Freshly activated off his recent DL stint and ready to make an impact in deep leagues is James Loney.

That’s probably because you’re sitting on some long-shot profits and you’re more than likely a Yankees fan living in New York. Go enjoy it; you earned […]
