Carter had a monster game Wednesday night, going 2-for-4 with 2 HRs and 4 RBIs. The inconsistent slugger has 17 HRs and 44 RBIs on the year, but he's towing along a .231 BA with those nice power numbers. He's a decent deep league option, but you have to be patient with him and wait […]
Full Story »Cody Ross (OF, ARI)
Ross has heated up with 2 HR and 4 RBIs over his last 3 games. He had 22 HR and 81 RBIs last year in just 476 ABs, so we know he's capable of hitting for solid power. Ross plays his games in a great hitters park and sees bad pitchers in his division for […]
Full Story »Ricky Nolasco (SP, MIA)
Looks like Nolasco has been motivated by the swirling trade rumors surrounding him. He went 7 IP Wednesday night with 7 Ks while allowing just 2 ER on 6 baserunners. Nolasco is a very inconsistent pitcher but he does have a somewhat decent 3.85 ERA and 1.22 WHIP on the year. His 90:26 K:BB ratio […]
Full Story »Randall Delgado (SP, ARI)
Delgado has been very solid since getting the call to be Arizona's 5th starter, and his high-upside profile should have you paying attention now. He hasn't allowed more than 3 ER in 5 starts, and has a 25:4 K:BB ratio in 27 IP over that span. He had his strongest outing yet on Wednesday going […]

Full Story »Scott Feldman (SP, BAL)
Feldman has slowed down a lot since his hot start, but he had a great debut on Wednesday night for the Orioles. He went 6 IP with a 6:0 K:BB ratio, just 6 hits and 2 ER allowed and the W. He regressed bigtime in June after a ridiculous May, but he's still a nice […]
Full Story »Daily Fantasy Baseball Analysis July 3: Homer with No-Hits
No Hits, Just Homer Reds' starter Homer Bailey tossed the 2013 season’s first no-hitter on Tuesday. It was Bailey who tossed the seventh and final no-hitter of the 2012 season, during which it seemed every week we were on no-hitter alert. Bailey was perfect until a leadoff walk to Gregor Blanco in the seventh inning; Blanco […]
Full Story »Nick Franklin (2B, SS, SEA)
Franklin has a nice stat line in just 117 ABs: .299-4-15-13-5, which would put him on pace for a 20-20 season with nice production and a great BA. He's been shadily consistent and solid and deserves to be owned in much more than 40% of leagues.
Full Story »Rickie Weeks (2B, MIL)
Weeks is batting .310 with 4 HR over the past 2 weeks. He's 64% owned right now in Yahoo! leagues and that will continue to rise as he puts his cold start behind him. He has potential to produce like a top-5 2B for a couple months at a time, and if you snag him […]
Full Story »Johnny Giavotella (2B, KC)
Giavotella was raking in the minors and is being given a real shot to hold down the 2B job in KC. He's off to a nice start with 3 hits in his first 7 ABs. He's worth adding in very deep leagues if your 2B / MI situation is in big trouble. Otherwise just keep […]
Full Story »Ichiro Suzuki (OF, NYY)
Ichrio's numbers on the year are still worse than ugly, but over his last 10 he has 2 HR, 4 RBIs, 6 Runs, 2 SBs, and 12 Hits. Very solid for a 4th or 5th OF. When he arrived in New York last year he was fantastic, and his game has picked up of late. […]
Full Story »Kendrys Morales (1B, SEA)
Morales is owned in 51% of leagues, but his .282-11-48 line on the year means he's underowned. He has 8 hits in his last 4 games and he hit 2 HRs and 6 RBIs on Tuesday night. If you need some decent pop from your 1B or CI, Morales is a nice addition.
Full Story »Paul Konerko (1B, CHW)
Konerko really does look his age this year. Even his back is going out on him. Despite the fact the White Sox won't trade him, Konerko isn't doing much to even generate interest from other teams. His .249-7-30 line on the year means that at 55% owned, he's highly overowned. Leave him for the deepest […]
Full Story »Scott Kazmir (SP, CLE)
Kazmir continues to defy his doubters by going 14 IP with an 11:1 K:BB ratio and just 1 ER allowed in his past 2 starts. He will absolutely get blown up here and there, but he's a fine addition in deep leagues if you need the K help and can stomach the occasional shellacking.
Full Story »Jayson Werth (OF, WAS)
Werth has been really hot recently, racking up 5 Runs and 6 RBIs over his past 3 games with 2 2Bs and a HR. Bryce Harper has given the Nats' offense a boost and Werth will be one of many beneficiaries. Pick him up if you need OF help as he's only 51% owned right […]
