Luke Jackson (RP, ATL) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: It has been a tumultuous start to the 2019 season for the Atlanta Braves bullpen. Arodys Vizcaino broke many a heart by landing on the 60-day IL after having surgery on his elbow, A.J. Minter was recently demoted for Jonny Venters as he failed […]

Austin Riley Seeing Extended Time In Triple-A Outfield

Atlanta Braves prospect Austin Riley played left field again Sunday for the fourth time in five contests. Sunday was also the third straight start in the outfield for Riley after playing strictly third base prior to his first game in left.

Fantasy Baseball Op Ed - Game of Thrones Edition

Now that I've already spoiled Avengers: Endgame on Youtube (hey, the Russo brothers said it was OK), it's time to pivot to the other most topical item in 2019 pop culture: Game of Thrones. I admit I'm not an avid viewer of the show, so don't take this as a love letter to the series. OK, […]

Sauceda's Slants - Six Hitters to Buy for Today's Environment

Pitching days can be pure euphoria — firing up the games to watch your pitchers (hopefully) mow down the opposing team for several innings. Catching one of your hitters’ at-bats just doesn’t create that same lasting feeling. Or, at least that’s what I used to say. Nowadays, I find myself bracing for dear life whenever […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers: Week 7

Well, seven weeks in and I'm already struggling to come up with a decent intro. I'm calling a mulligan on the intro this week and let's just get into the recap of the last two weeks. Julio Teheran is the winner in Week 5 despite going 0-1 in his two starts. After allowing four runs […]

Ronald Acuna Hitting Leadoff Friday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna is hitting leadoff on Friday night against Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zack Greinke. It might be a move that sticks going forward as the Braves look to get more production out of their entire lineup. Shortstop Dansby Swanson is also hitting second. Acuna excelled in the leadoff role in his rookie […]

A.J. Minter Optioned to the Minors

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter has been optioned to Triple-A on Friday. Arodys Vizcaino (shoulder) is out for the season, so Minter was expected to take over in the closer role. However, Minter posted a 9.82 ERA with nine walks in 11 innings of work with the Braves. Luke Jackson should get some chances […]

Closers and Saves Report - Week 6 Waiver Wire

Some pretty important moving and shaking went on this week in the bullpens across the league.
