Mike, Mike, Mike, guess what day it is! Welcome back, RotoBallers, to our Wednesday edition of rowdy FanDuel picks.

Champ or Chump: What to Make of Jones, Puig and Scherzer
My plan was very simple. Last week I profiled three struggling aces, intending to shift over to slumping bats this week. Then Scherzer decided to strikeout 20 Tigers amid concerns that he was off to a slow start, so I felt I should look at him. Thus, we have two slumping bats and whatever you […]

Happy Friday everyone. We have a full slate on deck including one early game (Pirates-Cubs). There's only one pitcher priced above $10,000 on either site (Chris Sale) which means there will be tons of low-owned value plays to be found.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/13/16): MLB DFS Advice

Week 6 Waiver Wire: Catchers
It's hard to believe that this is the sixth week of the baseball season. It seems like I had just started doing this column and I'm already halfway to a dozen of these. Many of the catchers out there also wish that they had more time - it hasn't been a great start for any […]
Jayson Werth (OF, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues and NL-Only Leagues OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: After a lackluster 2015 campaign, Jayson Werth got off to an even poorer start to 2016. His .202 BA and .267 OBP would both be career lows were the season to end today. With that being said, Werth has made […]
Week 6 Waiver Wire: Outfield
The most powerful tool in fantasy baseball is, well, power. The home run dominates fantasy unlike any other product. A home run gives your team a home run, a run scored, an uptick in BA and OBP and one or more RBI. Power is a commodity that many owners are willing to sacrifice quality ballplayers […]

Hector Neris (RP, PHI) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Not many people knew about Hector Neris when this season began, but the Philadelphia Phillies continue to impress with the diamonds in the rough they keep finding.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/11/16): MLB DFS Advice
May is here, and a ton of players are heating up alongside the weather. It's of course important to focus on hitters that have been hot of late, but also those that have had success against their opposing starter in the past. It's always wise to spend up at pitcher, as wins are so important […]

Overrated/Underrated Week 6: Time To Sell These Studs?
A huge part of succeeding in fantasy baseball is being able to spot market inefficiencies and knowing how to exploit them. Ownership rates are an excellent way to understand how other owners collectively value a particular player. They don't tell the whole story, of course, but if you're trying to establish a player's price, his […]

MLB Daily Fantasy Baseball Patrol: Pitchers for FanDuel, DraftKings (5/10/16)
Tuesday's pitching slate shapes up as a rough one for pitching on daily sites.

With all the cheap options out there, everyone is going to have great bats in their lineups, so […]

Jayson Werth (WAS, OF) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: 14+ team leagues OWNED IN: 22% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Jayson Werth got off to a miserable start this season.
