Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 10

One man's trash is another man's treasure. This is what I tell myself when I'm bidding $6 for Ryan Braun in an Ottoneu league where I need OF help or adding Zack Godley to a pitching staff that has underperformed. These players aren't without warts and could never turn back to top form this season, […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire: H2H Category Streamers

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster […]

Relief Pitcher Prospect Rankings (May) - 2018 Impact Rookies

The nature of relief pitchers is such that it is nearly impossible to predict with any certainty who will produce at the major league level. Often times, especially in keeper and dynasty leagues, stashing relief pitching prospects is simply not worth the trouble because they rarely contribute in fantasy in the beginning of their career. […]

AL-Only Waiver Wire Team of the Week: MLB Week 9

Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson powered the White Sox to a 8-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers Saturday, launching two home runs and driving in a career-high four runs on the day.

Chicago White Sox third baseman Matt Davidson (back) was scratched again on Saturday for back tightness. Davidson has now been left out of the starting lineup for four straight games due to his back issues.
