Andres Gimenez (2B/SS, NYM) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS: A big part of the upcoming final fortnight of the fantasy season is catching up in categories you're lacking in to squeak out as many roto points as you can. So those of you in need of stolen bases should look no further than... Read More Jamie Steed 1 week ago

Nick Madrigal (2B/SS, CWS) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS: Nick Madrigal was a popular draft-day target among fantasy managers, although the slight on him was being an "empty batting average guy". There was no question Madrigal could hit for a good average but he lacked any power in his Minor League career having... Read More Jamie Steed 2 weeks ago

Ty France (2B/3B, SEA) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Mariners acquired Ty France from the Padres in the trade headlined by Austin Nola going in the opposite direction.

Jon Berti (2B/3B/SS/OF, MIA) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% of leagues ANALYSIS: Jon Berti came into the 2020 season as a cheap fantasy source of stolen bases and he's lived up to that reputation so far with eight steals (tied for second in the MLB). Berti did start the season as the Marlins no.2 hitting, making... Read More Jamie Steed 3 weeks ago

Austin Nola (C/1B/2B, SEA) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Seattle Mariners have been one of the sneaky-good offenses in the league and catcher Austin Nola has been a big part of it. Nola has been particularly good this past week with seven RBI and six runs scored in his last six games.... Read More Mike Schwarzenbach 4 weeks ago

Mike Brosseau (2B/3B/OF, TB) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: Mike Brosseau has emerged from the Rays roster as a 'leftie-masher', someone who crushes left-handed pitching but isn't a regular in the lineup. That is a bit harsh on the utility man and he's someone who does deserve greater consideration. While it is... Read More Jamie Steed 1 month ago

Jake Cronenworth (1B/2B/SS, SD) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: Jake Cronenworth has been one of the more interesting stories in the 2020 baseball season. The 26-year-old rookie was a two-way player in College before being drafted by the Tampa Bay Rays in 2015. He didn't throw a pitch in professional baseball until... Read More Jamie Steed 1 month ago

Asdrubal Cabrera (1B/2B/3B, WSH) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 33% of leagues ANALYSIS: Veteran infielder Asdrubal Cabrera is showing no signs of slowing down in his age 34 season, finding himself the cleanup hitter for the World Champion Washington Nationals. A .266/.330/.544 slash line and five home runs in 21 games isn't particularly eye-catching, but his 16... Read More Jamie Steed 1 month ago

Nick Solak (2B/3B/OF, TEX) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 25% of leagues ANALYSIS: This is a season when every AB matters and defensive versatility can help maximize those opportunities, and with availability in the outfield and the corner and middle infield, Nick Solak presents can easily be plugged in on any given day. The former Louisville Cardinal... Read More RotoBrady 1 month ago

Joey Wendle (2B/3B/SS, TB) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of leagues ANALYSIS: Here's an interesting note: if you were going strictly by WAR, Joey Wendle would've beaten Shohei Ohtani, Miguel Andujar, and Gleyber Torres for the 2018 AL ROY with a 4.8. Aside from that, Wendle is attempting to recover in 2020 from a subpar showing... Read More RotoBrady 1 month ago

Shed Long Jr. (2B/OF, SEA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 13% of leagues ANALYSIS: Seattle Mariners second baseman/outfielder Shed Long Jr. is showing some early signs of being a potential difference-maker in stolen bases.

Dylan Moore (2B/3B/SS/OF, SEA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of leagues ANALYSIS: Seattle Mariners shortstop Dylan Moore has looked like a new man so far this young season.

Nick Madrigal (2B/SS, CWS) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 13% of leagues ANALYSIS: By all accounts, 23-year-old Nick Madrigal is one of the top 50 prospects in baseball, and with only two seasons (628 AB) of minor-league play under his belt, the youth-stocked Chicago White Sox have already given Madrigal the major league call up. Putting the... Read More RotoBrady 2 months ago

Hanser Alberto (2B, 3B, BAL) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of leagues ANALYSIS: Hanser Alberto has garnered a reputation for being a "leftie-masher" in that he hits left-handed pitching so well. The numbers certainly back that up. In 2019, Alberto had a .398/.414/.534 slash line against lefties and already has a .625/.625/1.250 line against southpaws this... Read More Jamie Steed 2 months ago

Chris Taylor (2B/SS/OF, LAD) - Week 2 Waiver Wire BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS: With many baseball fans drooling over the potential of Gavin Lux, Chris Taylor was a fantasy afterthought until about a week ago.

Nick Solak (2B/3B, TEX) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 27% of leagues ANALYSIS: After being acquired from the Rays mid-season, Solak made a mark in his MLB debut with Texas, hitting .293/.393/.491 with 5 HR, 19 R, 17 RBI, and 2 SB in 33 games. The knock against the 25-year-old coming into the season was a... Read More Eric Samulski 2 months ago

Travis Shaw (3B, TOR) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues OWNED IN: 4% of leagues ANALYSIS: Travis Shaw is coming off a horrendous year in Milwaukee that saw his average plummet to .157 with only seven home runs in 86 games while battling various injuries. Shaw blamed some of his struggles on a swing change, and there's reason to... Read More Mike Schwarzenbach 2 months ago

Howie Kendrick (1B/2B/3B, WSH) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of leagues ANALYSIS: Not many players have a career-year at age 36, but that’s exactly what Howie Kendrick did last season in Washington. The veteran infielder hit for a cool .344 with a .966 OPS along with 17 longballs in 370 PA. That performance wasn't a fluke... Read More Elliott Baas 2 months ago

Garrett Hampson (2B, COL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~140 CURRENT ADP: ~163 overall ANALYSIS: Garrett Hampson showed glimpses of his promise during the 2019 campaign despite finding irregular playing time for most of the year.

Gavin Lux (2B, LAD) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~150 CURRENT ADP: ~169 overall ANALYSIS: Lux earned a call-up in September just in time to earn a starting job as the Dodgers second baseman.

Howie Kendrick (1B/2B/3B, WAS) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~230 CURRENT ADP: ~250 overall ANALYSIS: A lot has changed for Howie Kendrick in this new baseball landscape. For one, Kendrick may be a full-time player now with Ryan Zimmerman opting out and the presence of the universal DH. That's great news because he just had the best fantasy year of... Read More Nicklaus Gaut 5 months ago

Ryan McMahon (1B/2B/3B, COL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~160 CURRENT ADP: ~176 overall ANALYSIS: Ryan McMahon finished the 2019 season with a .250/.329/.450 slash line, adding 24 homers, 83 RBI, 70 runs scored and five steals over 539 at-bats. He set the franchise record for homers by a primary second baseman. The Rockies' 25-year-old slugger was a second-half monster, bashing 17... Read More Kyle Ringstad 6 months ago

Niko Goodrum (1B/2B/SS/OF, DET) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~260-270 CURRENT ADP: ~284 overall ANALYSIS: Niko Goodrum is on pace to start the year as Detroit’s everyday shortstop, but has insane versatility that allows him to fill in wherever needed. Goodrum delivered a 12 home run/12 stolen base season in just 112 games last year, with 15/15 available on the cheap... Read More Nick Mariano 7 months ago

Kevin Newman (2B/SS, PIT) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~170s CURRENT ADP: ~192 overall ANALYSIS: Kevin Newman didn't begin the 2019 season on most fantasy owners' radar, but by the year's end, he had cemented himself as an excellent middle-infield option.

Jean Segura (2B, PHI) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~170s CURRENT ADP: ~191 overall ANALYSIS: Jean Segura underachieved, for his standards, in his first season with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2019. He slashed .280/.323/.420 with 12 HR, 79 R, 60 RBI, and 10 stolen bases as some minor injuries limited him to 144 games. Segura disappointed the most on the base paths,... Read More Riley Mrack 7 months ago

Garrett Hampson (2B/OF, COL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~160s CURRENT ADP: ~175 overall ANALYSIS: Garrett Hampson had a disappointing 2019 campaign hitting just .247-8-27-40-15 in 299 at-bats, but the 25-year old seemed to figure things out late in the season. In September, Hampson hit .318 with five home runs and nine steals in just 88 at-bats. With elite speed... Read More Nick Ritrivi 7 months ago

Cavan Biggio (2B, TOR) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~105-120 CURRENT ADP: ~132 overall ANALYSIS: Cavan Biggio was selected by Toronto in the fifth round of the 2016 Amateur Draft.

Brandon Lowe (2B, TB) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 170 CURRENT ADP: ~196 overall ANALYSIS: Brandon Lowe is a prime breakout candidate at second base heading into 2020 after his injury-riddled 2019 campaign limited him to just 296 at-bats throughout 82 games. He is another second baseman that can provide power, the ability to get on base, and a... Read More Kipp Heisterman 7 months ago

Starlin Castro (2B, WAS) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Target ~260s CURRENT ADP: ~286 overall ANALYSIS: Oftentimes we hear the word "sleeper" in fantasy sports and think of a younger player who is primed to catch most owners off-guard with surprising success. In reality, we should simply be thinking about players who are being overlooked based on their role and opportunity. Basically,... Read More Eric Samulski 7 months ago

Ian Happ (OF/2B, CHC) - Fantasy Baseball Sleeper BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~280 CURRENT ADP: ~323 overall ANALYSIS: Ian Happ burst onto the scene in 2017, hitting 24 home runs in 115 games, and many people were ready to anoint him as a long-time legitimate fantasy asset.

Rougned Odor (2B, TX) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 180 CURRENT ADP: ~218 overall ANALYSIS: Rougned Odor just turned 26 a few weeks ago, which seems shocking since he broke into the Majors in 2014.
