H2H Category Streamers - Week 11 Waiver Wire
There are plenty of strategies that fantasy managers explore in hopes of getting an advantage over their opponent. Heavy lineup, heavy starting pitchers, no catcher, all (or mostly) reliever staff, no reliever staff, etc. Even if you play a balanced lineup, injuries can cause holes. A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]

Top 30 Impact Prospects for Redraft Leagues (Week 10)
It was a quiet week for prospect promotions and catcher Will Smith was the only position player who was promoted and stuck.

San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against Mets left-handed starting pitcher Jason Vargas.

The San Francisco Giants placed catcher Buster Posey (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain on Wednesday and activated reliever Trevor Gott from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Digging Deeper: NL-Only Waiver Report for Week 10
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 […]
Madison Bumgarner Posts Quality Start, No-Decision
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner allowed three earned runs, six hits and two walks with five strikeouts over six innings in a non-decision against the New York Mets on Tuesday.

Buster Posey Could Return Wednesday
San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey's (hamstring) MRI exam showed a mild right hamstring injury, and manager Bruce Bochy said Posey could catch as soon as Wednesday. Injuries are always a concern with aging catchers, and Posey is no different. He's also started to slow down with the bat when fully healthy on a bad […]
Buster Posey Out For Second Consecutive Game Tuesday
San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the New York Mets. Posey tweaked his hamstring on Saturday but it doesn't look like he will miss too many more starts. Stephen Vogt is behind the plate and will bat fifth against Mets right-hander Noah Syndergaard. Vogt carries little […]
Drew Pomeranz Could Start This Weekend
San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy said that starting pitcher Drew Pomeranz hasn't been pulled from the rotation permanently. He's currently available to pitch out of the bullpen if he's needed, and the left-hander could make a start against the Dodgers this weekend.

Brandon Crawford Homers Twice Sunday
San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford had a big game Sunday in an 8-1 win against the Baltimore Orioles, going 2-for-5 with two solo shots. He did not strike out. It's nothing but a nice surprise for Crawford, which the Baltimore bullpen can do for a hitter, especially at Camden Yards. Crawford is now hitting […]
Buster Posey is Out on Sunday
San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Posey tweaked his hamstring on Saturday, so the Giants are going to give him a few days to rest. Hopefully Posey can get back out there on Tuesday or Wednesday, but we'll see what happens. […]
