Zach Davies Sent To Minors

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies was optioned to the minors on Thursday along with Corey Knebel. Unlike Knebel, this doesn't look like a demotion, but more of an opportunity for Davies to get in some extra time before returning to the majors from a shoulder injury. Davies had a breakout year in 2017 with […]

Joakim Soria Expected Back Friday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Joakim Soria is expected to come off the disabled list for Friday's game against the Pirates. Soria had been on the disabled list with a groin strain but is feeling good after throwing to live hitters on Tuesday. Corey Knebel was optioned to the minors on Thursday, which looks to be the […]

Corey Knebel Sent To Minors

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Corey Knebel was demoted to Triple-A on Thursday. While it is certainly upsetting for Knebel owners, the move isn't surprising. Knebel has been having a terrible year with a 5.08 ERA and has continued to struggle in the bullpen since losing his job, meanwhile, Jeremy Jeffress and Josh Hader have been stellar […]

Rookie Report: Recent MLB Prospect Call-Ups (Week 21)

With the fantasy playoffs looming around the corner (or, in some instances, in full swing), rookie impact becomes less and less important due to the fact that there simply aren't any great stashes remaining. A top prospect being promoted for a cup of coffee can make a huge impact, but there does not profile to […]

Corey Knebel Struggling In August

Milwaukee Brewer reliever Corey Knebel lost his closer job in late July and has continues to pitch worse ever since. On August 1st, his ERA was 3.98 and it now sits at 5.08. Through nine appearances so far this month, he has allowed at least one run in five of them. During his time away […]

Ryan Braun Hits Two Doubles Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun went 2-for-4 with two doubles and a run scored during Wednesday's win against the Reds. Braun had recently missed a little time with tightness in his rib cage, but seems to be healthy again. Due to his age, injury risk, and the Brewers abundance of players, he doesn't play every […]

Lorenzo Cain Collects Three Hits Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's win against the Reds. Cain has been hitting very well lately, posting a .389 average and .922 OPS over the last two weeks with five steals. Though he doesn't offer a whole lot of power, he is a great source of batting average […]

Christian Yelich Perfect At The Plate Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 4-for-4 with a walk and a home run on Wednesday against the Reds. Yelich has been red hot over the last month batting .345 with a 1.059 OPS and nine home runs. It looks like the production increase expected from moving from Miami to Milwaukee has finally started to […]

Jeremy Jeffress Records Another Save

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress recorded his fifth save of the year and second in a row on Wednesday against the Reds. Before Jeffress got the save on Monday, Josh Hader had recorded three saves in a row, so the closer situation in Milwaukee still seems pretty murky. They are both worth owning right now […]

Freddy Peralta Shuts Down Reds

Milwaukee Brewers starter Freddy Peralta threw seven shutout innings on Wednesday in a win against the Reds. Peralta also only allowed three hits and two walks while striking out seven. Though Peralta has been having some trouble staying consistent lately, he's now posted back to back quality starts and three of the last four, which […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/22/18): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Happy hump day, Rotoballers. We've got a nifty 10-game slate on deck this evening, with a handful of solid and intriguing (see also: risk + upside) pitchers toeing the rubber under the lights. There should be some solid competition, too, as this is the first Wednesday slate I can recall in a while where there […]

NL-Only Waiver Wire Team of the Week: MLB Week 21

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 […]

In this series, I will be going over the top prospects in baseball and discussing which ones figure to have an impact for the rest of this fantasy baseball season. It just doesn’t seem right. The rain comes in and ends Michael […]

Jonathan Schoop is Out on Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Jonathan Schoop (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Orlando Arcia will play shortstop and bat eighth against righty Sal Romano. Arcia has been awful with the bat this season, so DFS players can go ahead and avoid him.

Ryan Braun is Out of the Lineup Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Ryan Braun (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Braun has been dealing with a rib cage issue, but did return to the lineup on Monday. It looks like he is just getting routine day off on Tuesday. Eric Thames will bat sixth and […]

Eric Thames is Back in the Lineup Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Eric Thames (knee) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Thames was out of the lineup for a few games due to a sore knee. He'll bat sixth and play right field against righty Sal Romano. Thames has struggled over the last two weeks, so […]

Matt Albers Activated on Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Matt Albers (hamstring) has been activated from the disabled list on Tuesday. He missed the last couple of weeks due to a hamstring issue. Albers threw three scoreless innings without issues, so he should resume his role in middle relief for the Brewers. Reliever Joakim Soria (groin) should be activated off […]

Chase Anderson Is A Risky Two Start Option

Milwaukee Brewers starter Chase Anderson is heading into a good looking match up against the Reds on Monday, but it might not be as juicy as it looks. Anderson has posted a 8.31 ERA in his last two starts against San Diego and Atlanta. On top of that, the Reds offense has been coming alive […]

Eric Thames Remains Out of the Lineup on Monday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Eric Thames (knee) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Thames left Friday's game with a sore knee and has not seen much action since then. Jesus Aguilar will bat cleanup and play first base against righty Homer Bailey. Aguilar should be in for a […]

Jeremy Jeffress Gives Up Rare Run On Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress pitched two innings and gave up one run during Sunday's win versus the Cardinals. Josh Hader came in for the save in the ninth, and both relievers are having amazing seasons. Both Hader and Jeffress look to see some save chances while Corey Knebel is still out of the role, […]

Josh Hader Locks Down Save Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Josh Hader struck out two batters on nine pitches to secure a 2-1 lead and a save on Sunday against the Cardinals. Hader now has back to back saves in his last two appearances and sits at 10 on the season. The Brewers have had a few different relievers get chances at […]

Jhoulys Chacin Good Again Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin threw six shutout innings in a win against the Cardinals on Sunday. This now marks three consecutive quality starts for Chacin and brings his ERA and WHIP down to a respectable 3.58 and 1.17 respectively. The recent success is encouraging but hard to trust. Chacin has a low strikeout […]

Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 21

Trade deadline passed? That doesn't mean you can't still buy and sell! Instead of trading assets with other owners, you can "buy" players that have been overlooked or recently discarded on the waiver wire. In this case, think of it as a short-term investment that comes at a low cost (you did save at least […]

Josh Hader Earns 10th Save Sunday

Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader earned his 10th save of the season Sunday against the Cardinals. Hader struck out two batters in a clean ninth inning that only lasted nine pitches. The 24-year old left-hander has been incredible all season long (on the baseball field) and should continue to see save opportunities going forward. Hader […]
