Bell's Best Bets - MLB Betting Picks for 5/17/21 (Premium Content)

What's up, RotoBallers! It's crazy that we're already beginning Week 8 of the MLB season. Week 7 was a whirlwind for me and my Bell's Best Bets followers. When the dust settled, we went 26-23, but my propensity to wager on the favorites when I like their spots puts us down about 1.05 units on […]

We have completed another week of MLB action, and we have once again been littered with injuries. Both good and bad things arise from injuries.

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 8

Everyone is suffering from injuries. That goes for fantasy managers, real-life teams, and each position group.

Whether because the normal […]

Andrew Vaughn (1B/OF, CHW) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of leagues ANALYSIS: A popular late-round pick in drafts this spring, Andrew Vaughn's slow start left him languishing on many waiver wires.

Jose Abreu Blasts Eighth Home Run

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu went 2-for-4 with a towering solo home run in Saturday's loss. Abreu was questionable entering the evening, because he suffered a facial contusion and laceration to go along with a sore knee after colliding with Hunter Dozier on Friday. Abreu has been hot in the month of May […]

Carlos Rodon Suffers First Loss

Adam Eaton Won't Start On Saturday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Adam Eaton will be on the bench for Saturday's game versus the Kansas City Royals with left-hander Mike Minor on the mound.

Yasmani Grandal Will Rest On Saturday

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal will rest on Saturday versus the Kansas City Royals. Grandal has been off to a rough start this season, but he has hit two dingers this week.

Abreu survived a nasty collision with Royals infielder Hunter Dozier in Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader and was removed in the top of the second inning with a facial contusion […]

Jose Abreu To Return Saturday Or Sunday

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu (face) is campaigning to play in Saturday's game against the Royals, per manager Tony La Russa. Abreu won't be allowed to suit up without a final medical evaluation, which would then give La Russa the green light to pencil him in. The veteran first baseman was involved in […]
