Steven Matz's scheduled start for Wednesday has been moved to Thursday because of stiffness on his right side. The Mets are giving the starting pitcher another day’s rest to make sure everything is OK. Logan Verrett will move up one day and start on Wednesday in place of Matz. The left-hander will now pitch against […]
Full Story »Frazier Leaves Game With 'Slight' Strain Of Achilles
Todd Frazier left Tuesday's game with a “slight” strain of his right Achilles tendon. This isn’t the best of news for the Cincinnati Reds but they are hopeful that it isn’t too bad. Either way, the Reds will most likely rest their All-Star third baseman for the rest of the season. Frazier left game with […]

Full Story »Ryan Fitzpatrick (QB, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues / Bye Week Fill-In OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Staying on the trend of bye-week replacements, Tom Brady and Marcus Mariota owners are going to need a contingency plan this week. Why not give the Harvard Grad a shot? Fitzpatrick has now thrown at least two touchdowns in each game […]
Full Story »Richard Rodgers (TE, GB) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Calling all Rob Gronkowski and Delanie Walker owners. Here's where we enter the bye-week fillers section of our segment. Grabbing a share of the Green Bay offense is never a bad idea, and there's a good chance Richard Rodgers sees an increased role […]
Full Story »Kenny Britt (WR, STL) - Waiver Wire Analysis
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: If you go on WebMD and search for "migraine symptoms" you'll find Kenny Britt as the fourth-leading factor. A head-case on and off the field, Britt came through for owners willing to roll the dice in week 3 versus a putrid Steelers defense […]
Full Story »Mike Evans (WR, TB) - Fantasy Football Risers
Many were very worried about whether Mike Evans would get on the same page with Jameis Winston, as well as be used effectively by Lovie Smith and company in Tampa. Well, those questions weren't really answered cleanly. Evans actually finished Week 3 tied with Steve Smith for the third most targets on the week with […]
Full Story »Andrew Luck (QB, IND) - Fantasy Football Fallers?
This was the first quarterback off of draft boards more often than not, and while Aaron Rodgers casually drops five touchdowns on the Chiefs on Monday Night, Andrew Luck struggles yet again against the Tennessee Titans defense before staging a late comeback. As the game was happening, my friend was talking to me about buying […]
Full Story »Teddy Bridgewater (QB, MIN) - Fantasy Football Fallers
What the heck Teddy? Bridgewater was looking amazing in the preseason (I know, I know) and seemed poised to take steps forward with a growing Charles Johnson, the return of Adrian Peterson, and the acquisition of Mike Wallace. This has not happened. His overall numbers are being somewhat salvaged by a solid Week 2 effort […]
Full Story »Golden Tate (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Fallers
The Lions have not looked too good so far, and Matthew Stafford being banged up helps nothing. That being said, Golden Tate has not started this year strong. Tate's line so far in 2015: 24 targets, 15 receptions, 161 yards and 0 touchdowns. Another piece of this that scares me is that out of those […]
Full Story »Doug Martin (RB, TB) - Fantasy Football Fallers
Originally, Doug Martin was going to be one of the "obvious" examples at the beginning of the piece, but I watch Tampa Bay a bunch and others might (should) not right now. Tampa Bay's offensive line is terrible. There's no hope right now. It's in shambles. The highest rated player according to ProFootballFocus is Evan […]
Full Story »Fantasy Football Fallers - Carlos Hyde, Anquan Boldin, Colin Kaepernick
The entire San Francisco offense is on my fallers list following Week 3. I like doing this. Don't hate on blanket statements, they can be efficient sometimes. It shouldn't be news to anyone that the 49ers were absolutely embarrassed in Week 3 against the Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers are an interesting case. One couldn't get much […]
Full Story »Latavius Murray (RB, OAK) - Fantasy Football Risers
This went according to plan. The Cleveland Browns were not an imposing defense against the run by any means, but the first stretch of the game still didn't see Latavius benefiting much from Oakland moving the ball. For all the awesomeness that Derek Carr and the Raiders' receiving corps were bringing to the table (yes, […]
Full Story »Jeremy Maclin (WR, KC) - Fantasy Football Risers
Maclin and his owners were suffering with a big fat goose egg after one half of play on Monday Night Football. Then he exploded in the second half, finishing with 11 targets, 8 receptions, 141 yards and a touchdown. Now, it's not promising at all in my eyes that it took a huge hole for […]
Full Story »Rishard Matthews (WR, MIA) - Fantasy Football Risers
Rishard Matthews is one of those guys who was pretty easy to look at after two weeks of decent stat lines and write off as fluky. If you read this last week, you hopefully already snagged him, but all the same this is a guy who deserves attention because of the aura of skepticism about […]
