Full Story »Jesse Chavez (SP, OAK) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If you had a opportunity to pickup a starting pitcher on the waiver with an ERA of 2.11 and WHIP of 1.04 on the season would you do it? 10 times out of 10 I imagine you would. Currently there is a […]
Full Story »Mike Foltynewicz (SP, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: So a 3-2 record with a 4.29 ERA from Mike Foltynewicz on a weaker team does not excite you at first glance.

Full Story »Nate Karns (SP, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues or Stream in Good Matchups OWNED IN: 20% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Karns' numbers look league average at first glance - 3-2 with a 3.63 ERA - and his strikeout rate is acceptable at 8.13 K/9. The walks, however, can kill your WHIP - 3.92 BB/9 is simply dreadful. […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Deep Leagues OWNED: Fleaflicker 54%, ESPN/Yahoo 47%, CBS 66%. ANALYSIS: If someone were to look at Adam Laroche so far this this year you wouldn't be all that impressed. His line reads, .237/.365/.391 to go along with 6 HR, 21 R, 22 RBI. Not exactly what people were hoping for when they […]

Full Story »Joey Gallo (3B, TEX) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: A lot has been said of Joey Gallo since his impressive debut on June 2nd. But apparently not enough, since he's not close to being owned in enough leagues yet. Gallo is not without warts - he has 10 strikeouts in just 16 ABs and […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed and NL-Only Leagues Owned In: 5% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The 27-year-old Ben Paulsen has provided the Rockies with a boost, and he has the ability to play first base or either corner outfield position.
