Matt Duffy (2B / 3B, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Duff Man, oh yeah! Since Bruce Bochy decided to give the 24-year-old infielder the starting job at third base, he’s been producing. He should continue to do so in a suddenly very good Giants lineup. I imagine that he’ll have a rather long […]

Chase Utley (2B, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues with a Middle Infield Slot OWNED IN: 62% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Given his abominable start to the season, Utley might be available in your league, regardless of format. Take a flier on him if you’re really desperate in the middle infield or if you’ve got an injured player to replace, […]

Wilmer Flores (SS / 2B, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues with Middle Infield Slot OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: I’ve advised adding Flores before, and I think the time is right to do it again.
