BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If someone were to tell you that a veteran journeyman who has struggled to hold down a regular job could help win you your fantasy championship, you'd probably call them crazy.

The Houston Astros officially placed Scott Feldman on the 60-day DL, which ends the starting pitcher’s season.
