Brandon Phillips (CIN, 2B) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: So he's not what he once was, but he's still a very serviceable player at a shallow position.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Valbuena is nursing a sprained big toe, but that doesn’t appear to be negatively impacting him at the plate.

Week 14 Buy and Sell Hitters for Fantasy Baseball: All-Star Edition

The All-Star votes are in and the baseball world is baffled. Luckily, most of those undeserving Royals were voted off the island in the final days, leaving mostly competent players on the starting AL squad. Still, no matter how you look at it, the results of the final All-Star teams (reserves included) do not line […]

10 Bold Predictions for the 2015 Fantasy Baseball Season: Revisited

Back in March, I offered 10 bold predictions for the 2015 fantasy baseball season.

Votto was a monster in April, but has been merely very […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers and Advice for 7/7/15

There are seventeen games scheduled on Tuesday, July 7th thanks to a pair of doubleheaders. I'm going to concentrate just on tonight's slate for rostering's sake, though.

Neal Walker (2B, PIT) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 65% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Neil Walker has been on a tear recently, hitting .600 in the month of July.

Minor Leagues Spotlight: Top MLB Prospects for Fantasy from Week 12

Unsurprisingly, Joey Gallo was sent back down to Triple-A when Josh Hamilton was activated from the DL. Gallo performed as expected at the majors: flashed tremendous power and demonstrated that he isn’t ready to face Major League pitching on a regular basis. Gallo hit five home runs in 25 games, but he hit .218 and […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers & Advice for 7/3/15

I’m writing this draft prior to Scherzer pitching on Thursday, so if I’m burying the lead by saying that all of Thursday’s starters who returned from the DL (Jose Fernandez, Matt Cain, and Matt Moore) pitched pretty well overall. There are not meltdowns to reports. And yes, Fernandez might actually hit in the three spot […]

FanDuel DFS – MLB Lineup Picks, Sleepers and Advice for 7/2/15

Happy #JoseDay everyone! Jose Fernandez long-awaited debut will be Thursday, and although I think it’s a little over-the-top to make a player’s start a national holiday, it does have a better ring than Harvey Day. The Marlins’ front office is just as excited as the fans are about this money-making return of what should be […]
