Maikel Garcia (3B/SS, KC) - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: To say the Royals have been bad this year would be an understatement. They're dead last in a division in which no team is above .500, lost their first baseman/DH Vinnie Pasquantino for the remainder of the season, just traded Aroldis Chapman […]

David Hamilton - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Add

David Hamilton was called up to the Red Sox on June 21 after spending the last two seasons speeding through the minor leagues, literally. In 2021, then a member of the Brewers organization, he stole 52 bases in 101 games across High-A and Double-A. Last year, the infielder stole 70 bases for the Double-A Portland […]

Isiah Kiner-Falefa (2B/SS/OF NYY) - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15

BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Adding Isiah Kiner-Falefa in fantasy isn't as sexy as some top prospects, but the 28-year-old super-utility man has been surprisingly productive over the past two months. Since the calendar turned to May, Kiner-Falefa-Falefa is slashing .267/.306/.457 with all five of his homers […]

Luis Garcia (2B/SS, WAS) - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15

BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With each passing week, I get more perplexed at how Luis Garcia's roster rate remains so low. He's batting .280 on the season thanks to a 96th-percentile K-rate. He's got 36 runs, 37 RBI, five homers, and four steals, so he contributes […]

Ezequiel Tovar (SS, COL) - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After weeks of writing up Ezequiel Tovar as a waiver wire option this week, I decided to give it a rest and include him in the "Others To Consider" section while shining the spotlight elsewhere. After all, how many times can you […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/2/23): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

We have a busy Sunday in the majors, but most of the action is early in the afternoon...but not too early. DraftKings and FanDuel don't like that. Both sites chopped off the Baltimore and Minnesota game that starts at high noon. Killjoys. However, FanDuel did include the Coors tilt on the main slate, so those […]

Chris Taylor Unlikely To Return Before All-Star Break

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor (knee) isn't expected to return until after the All-Star break. The 32-year-old has been out since mid-June after suffering a bone bruise in his right knee. However, he had been struggling before going down, batting just .206 with 63 strikeouts, so hopefully, the time away will help. In the […]

Jeremy Pena Sitting Out Again On Saturday

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (neck) is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Texas Rangers. Pena sat out Friday's contest as well due to neck stiffness so apparently the issue is still bothering him. Mauricio Dubon is starting at shortstop in his place and batting sixth against Rangers starter Nathan Eovaldi. Pena should […]

Ha-Seong Kim Returns To Action Against Reds

San Diego Padres infielder Ha-Seong Kim (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds and left-hander Brandon Williamson, starting at second base and batting leadoff as the Padres attempt to end their six-game losing skid. The Friars held Kim out as a precaution on Friday due to a tight hamstring, […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (Late Slate - 7/1/23): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

Yankees-Cardinals Postponed Friday

The game between the New York Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals on Friday in St. Louis has been postponed due to inclement weather. The contest will be made up on Saturday as part of a day/night doubleheader. Right-hander Luis Severino was scheduled to start on Friday for the Yankees while being opposed by St. Louis […]

Ha-Seong Kim Dealing With Hamstring Strain

San Diego Padres infielder Ha-Seong Kim (hamstring) is dealing with a left-hamstring strain, which is why he wasn't in the lineup for Friday's series opener against the Cincinnati Reds. Kim might have been able to play, but the Padres didn't want to risk making it worse. The 27-year-old is day-to-day, and he could be back […]

Taylor Walls Back In Action Against Mariners

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Taylor Walls (back) has returned to the starting lineup on Friday against the Seattle Mariners and right-hander Bryce Miller, and he is starting at second base and batting eighth in the lineup. Walls had been absent from the lineup for the last three games because of tightness in his back and […]

Jeremy Pena Out On Friday

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (neck) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Texas Rangers. Manager Dusty Baker said Pena woke up with neck stiffness, so they'll hold him out of the game as a precaution. That being said, this appears to be a day-to-day issue, so Pena should avoid a […]

CJ Abrams Returns To Friday's Lineup

Washington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams (elbow) is back at shortstop and is hitting ninth in the batting order on Friday against the Philadelphia Phillies and left-hander Cristopher Sanchez. Abrams was day-to-day this week after getting hit by a pitch on his right elbow Tuesday. He sat out of Wednesday's game but has returned on Friday […]

Terry Francona Returning Friday

Cleveland Guardians manager Terry Francona is returning to the dugout on Friday for the game against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Francona missed the last three games after feeling light-headed on Tuesday. He underwent tests and is being advised to rest, but apparently he's feeling good enough to return to managerial duties for the […]
