BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Emilio Bonifacio has not offered mixed-leaguers much production, but all of that could change soon. He is no longer a Blue Jay, as he has been acquired by the Royals. The speedster has hit for a measly average (.218) while failing to steal bases at respectable clip (1 SB for […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues (Add Immediately in NL-Only Leagues) ANALYSIS: Since moving into the starting rotation in June, Chad Gaudin has quietly put up impressive numbers.

If you'll recall Opening Day, […]

BALLER MOVE: Continue Scouting ANALYSIS: Two weeks have already gone by since the Veras trade, and the Houston closer saga still remains unresolved.

BALLER MOVE: Add Immediately ANALYSIS: Brandon Belt has earned N.L. Player of the Week honors, but don't expect him to slow down any time soon.
