Victor Robles Gets the Day Off

Washington Nationals outfielder Victor Robles (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Kyle Barraclough Optioned to Minors

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Kyle Barraclough has been optioned to Triple-A Harrisburg on Saturday. He gave up a three-run home run to Justin Turner on Friday, and it sounds like the Nats have seen enough to make a move. Barraclough has allowed eight home runs over 25 2/3 innings this season. He has a horrendous […]

Matt Grace to Serve As Opener Saturday

Washington Nationals pitcher Matt Grace will serve as the opener for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Joe Ross was scheduled to draw the start, but manager Dave Martinez has made a late change. Grace has a 6.23 ERA over 44 appearances this season. It's unclear why Ross isn't starting, so possibly he comes […]

H2H Category Streamers - Week 18 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 […]

Champ or Chump: Tyler O'Neill and Ramon Laureano

This time of year, a lot of fantasy analysis is a simple reminder to look at your standings page. Trading Max Scherzer for Whit Merrifield and Mallex Smith is a terrible idea in terms of overall value, but if you stand to gain a lot of points in SB it could make sense for you. […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 17

We're almost in August, which means that some owners will inevitably abandon their teams as they turn their attention to football season. This is, on balance, an unfortunate development - nobody should be that guy - but one benefit to those of us who follow through on our season-long commitment is that competition for waiver […]

Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 17

The season rolls on and fantasy managers need to continue analyzing their roster with an eye on categories instead of just adding any random player.
