The time for chalking things up to “just April shenanigans” has come and gone, and we here at RotoBaller felt that it was time for a rankings update with roughly 20 percent of the season in the books. Kyle Bishop and I felt that the world needed to know what we thought after a month-plus of […]

Amed Rosario (SS, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: While a torn ligament in the left thumb may be bad news for Mets shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera, it could be a huge boost for Amed Rosario and his soon-to-be fantasy owners. Cabrera hasn't hit the DL yet, but if/when he does, be ready to […]

Zack Wheeler (SP, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: It's fair to be skeptical of any Mets pitcher nowadays, but so far so good for Zack Wheeler this season. Wheeler hadn't pitched in the majors for two whole seasons until coming back in 2017. While it hasn't been perfect, there are some encouraging […]

Week 7 Waiver Wire Watch List

Welcome to Week 7 of The Watch List. We have had a few iterations already, but here’s a friendly reminder for those who forgot: Each week we’ll be updating this list full of players who you maybe aren’t quite ready to pick up (depending on league size, of course), but who need to be on […]

Week 7 Waiver Wire - First Base (1B) and Third Base (3B)

Small sample sizes have now become reasonably big enough for us to make some informed decisions. It's unlikely you'll find any potential 30-HR bats still available on the waiver wire at this point, but streaming the right players each week can be extremely helpful even if you aren't in a head-to-head league. The corner infield […]

Updated May Rankings and Tiers: Third Base (3B)

The comedian Lewis Black has a fantastic bit about the dumbest thing he’s ever heard in his life. After relaying the thing in question, he cautions the audience, “Don’t think about that sentence for more than three minutes, or blood will shoot out your nose.” This is more or less how it felt trying to […]

DraftKings Lineup Picks & Sleepers (5/15/17): MLB DFS Advice

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/15/17): MLB DFS Advice

We have a seven game slate tonight, and the pitching doesn't look that great. There are no pitchers over $9k, and no true aces on the mound. This leaves you plenty of options for hitters, and you will be able to get plenty of bats into one lineup. Could be a good day for some […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers (Week 7): Head-to-Head Leagues

Buy or Sell - Underowned and Overowned Players for Week 7

I'm not giving up yet on Jake Arrieta, who I may have hinted had a chance at winning another Cy Young award this season back in March. I am ready, however, to make amends to the Yankees after putting two of their players in the overrated section of my week 1 article in this series […]

Champ or Chump: Trevor Cahill & Dallas Keuchel

This has been a rotten year to invest heavily in starting pitching. Perhaps your ace is on the DL, like Madison Bumgarner or Noah Syndergaard. Maybe they are just underperforming, like Matt Harvey or Julio Teheran. Either way, you're probably looking for a reliable arm, or three. Trevor Cahill is far from the sexiest name, […]
