Dynasty Review: Deep Fantasy League Advice for Week 14

I'll begin by patting myself on the back for last week's column. Nobody else was writing about Jeimer Candelario last week - at least not until the Cubs announced his promotion to the majors. How's that for a timely report? Ok, fine. I didn't exactly hit the nail on the head. After praising Candelario for […]

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Franco, Harper, and A. Gonzalez

Continuing last week's trend, this week we profile three more players that cost a fortune on Draft Day and thus far have failed to deliver. Maikel Franco is one of the few MLB-caliber players on Philadelphia's roster. Adrian Gonzalez has lost his title as perhaps the safest selection in fantasy sports. Bryce Harper is following […]

Jayson Werth (OF, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: After two consecutive seasons of diminishing returns from the bearded one in Washington, Jayson Werth has sprung back to life. His 10 HR and 40 RBI have nearly matched last year's totals in an injury-plagued season. His .436 SLG is not much above league […]

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 13)

For the second consecutive week, a couple of prospects made headlines with promotions to the big leagues. First baseman A.J. Reed debuted for the Houston Astros on Saturday. The New York Mets promoted outfielder Brandon Nimmo in the wake of Michael Conforto’s demotion to Triple-A. And lastly the Pirates promoted two prospects: pitcher Chad Kuhl and shortstop […]

Bullpen Waiver Wire Pickups For Week 13

While holds are even tougher to predict than saves, the players we’ll highlight today include some elite setup men that have proven to be closer candidates to target off the waiver wire for Week 13 of the fantasy baseball season. The more likely a team is to win, the more likely a pitcher will be eligible […]

Ben Revere (OF, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 47% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Ben Revere has been one of the most heavily dropped players in fantasy over the past month— and for good reason. After spending all of April on the DL, Revere has been the most disappointing part of the Nationals loaded lineup. […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/30/16): MLB DFS Advice

We've got an 11 game Thursday all lined up for you. Three of the games start this afternoon - providing a nice cubicle distraction - and the remainder fall under the main slate tonight. FanDuel has three offerings - All Day (11), Early Only (3), and Main (8). On the bump tonight, it's Madison Bumgarner […]

Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups: Outfield

This week's list is composed of one riser, one faller, one returning from the DL and one just making his big league debut. It's a fine cast of characters who have been marginalized to the fringe of fantasy relevance. Most fantasy owners take note of the risers; that is, they check the waiver wire for […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/30/16): MLB DFS Advice

This is the last slate before our long Fourth of July weekend. Not that you can't keep playing over the weekend, but an excess adult beverages usually results in less DFS success. At least that's what I've found. But it's still just as fun! Thursday gives us an eight-game main slate with just three games […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 57% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: The Nationals have called up their top prospect, Lucas Giolito, to start tonight against Matt Harvey and the New York Mets at home in Washington D.C. at Nationals Park.

Dynasty Review: Deep Fantasy League Advice for Week 13

When preparing the Dynasty Review, I always begin by checking in on my picks from the previous week. The big prediction was the promotion of Brandon Nimmo. I can't take much credit for that one. There were already grumbles about Michael Conforto's impending demotion. I don't expect any rapid call ups from this week's crew. I […]

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Ryan Zimmerman, Justin Upton and Prince Fielder

Risk in fantasy sports is supposed to be the thing you balance against upside toward the end of your draft. Everyone should get roughly equal early round talent, and then teams differentiate themselves by guessing right on lesser names. Except it doesn't always work out that way. Sometimes your highly priced brand name superstar contributes […]

It's lucky Week 13 in fantasy baseball. Things are getting interesting. We have some closer upheavals, some new risers, and then obviously the fallers.

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/26/16): MLB DFS Advice
