Full Story »Tanner Roark (SP, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: The fact that Tanner Roark is only 61 % owned is downright criminal. Sure he had back to back hiccups on June 27th and July 4th, where he gave up 4 runs to the light hitting Cubs, but otherwise he has been an ERA and WHIP saint. On […]
Full Story »James Paxton (SP, SEA) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: James Paxton and Taijuan Walker were two of the highly touted Mariners' pitching prospects coming into the year. Taijuan is the one people are more familiar with since he has pitched in the majors more recently than Paxton, but Paxton is the one with more upside in my […]

Full Story »Chase Headley (3B, NYY) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues ANALYSIS: Chase Headley has been worse than dog poop in 2014, and it's incredible he's still 51% owned in CBS leagues.

If you own Petricka, you can safely cut him loose now, because despite Ventura's public statements that the closer role will be shared, it's looking more likely that Putnam […]
Full Story »Wade Miley (SP, ARI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ANALYSIS: Wade Miley is only owned in slightly more than a 1/4 of Yahoo! leagues, and at this point I'm convinced it's because he's got a really junky sounding name, because there's really no other explanation. Miley's fastball velocity has been increasing each month, and he has a lot of room […]
