Second Base and Shortstop Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
Thanks to Ellis Canady for filling in last week (and for touting Cesar Hernandez, who is Good). For the remainder of this all too short season, this beat will be covered by yours truly. As in prior seasons, our focus will be on those players who are rostered in under 50% of Yahoo leagues. Your […]
1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
Entering week two and coming off a short week, give us a small sample to work with. This week, I will lean heavily on match-ups and potential for at-bats via lineup placement. There will be a few repeat names on this list due to the rostered percentage not rising and performance warranting an add. Before […]
MLB Betting Picks (7/27/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines
Welcome back, RotoBallers! Early exits for Shohei Ohtani and Corey Kluber put us behind the eight ball to start, and we ended up negative again on Sunday. Tough! But that's the life of sports handicapping. I'm going to try and keep things rather short today, because there is serious concern that the season gets suspended […]

Points League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2
There is no getting around that playing head-to-head points with weekly matchups is a difficult proposition in a 60-game season. There are only 10 weeks to play so that makes for a regular-season made up of just five or six matchups. Obviously, that will be a roller coaster of insanity for any leagues keeping the […]
Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 2
Only three days’ worth of games separate last week’s waiver wire from this week’s, but there are still new players worth picking up this week. In addition to players making their first appearance on this list, some players still aren’t close as highly rostered as they should be after last week. With that in mind, […]

The Early Cut List (Week 2) - Time to Let Go?
Welcome back to the Cut List. Writing this column at this exact moment is an interesting exercise because most cuts are either: really obvious, on account of a player opting out of the season or an injury that will cost several weeks; or the opposite of obvious, on account of no one has played more […]
Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates for Week 2
Injuries are commonplace in all sports. Baseball has seen the rate of injury continue to rise over the past few years. In fantasy, if someone is not in the medical field, it is hard to gauge how long a player will be out and whether they need to be replaced in a lineup. Sometimes this […]

Spencer Turnbull Has Solid 2020 Debut Against Reds
Detroit Tigers pitcher Spencer Turnbull started his season off strong against the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.

Turnbull only got one run of support […]

KBO DFS Lineup Picks For 7/26/20 - DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball
Welcome back RotoBallers! It's confession time. I've made more money playing MLB DFS the last two days than I have playing KBO DFS for the last two weeks. Some of that is because I've crushed it on the MLB side, but it's also because I've cut back tremendously on my KBO play. However, I can't […]
