Week 11 Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire: Prospecting For Gold
June is usually the month we see top prospects start to invade the league, typically because the team was waiting until the middle of June to delay their arbitration eligibility by a year. As if the league wasn’t rife with overhyped rookies already. These guys make for great fantasy adds because their name recognition is […]
Week 10 Fantasy Baseball Rest-of-Season Projections: Gio, Ervin, Cuddyer
When it comes to anticipating what a young player like Yasiel Puig, Tony Cingrani, or Matt Harvey can do, the sky is the limit. Go nuts. When it comes to players with multi-year track records that have little deviation from the norm, you pretty much know what you’re going to get by the end of […]
Week 10 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper Stock Market: Living in Cin
With Yasiel Puig, Anthony Rendon, Tyler Skaggs, and Chris Archer all being called up this week, the league continues the 2013 trend of getting younger. Much younger.

Week 10 Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire: Kid Stuff
While typically reliable veterans like Matt Kemp, Josh Hamilton, Matt Cain, and Cole Hamels have struggled in the early going, inexperienced kids in their (very) early-20s, many without any experience above Double-A, are stealing the show. This week’s waiver wire doesn’t have any old timers or All-Stars, just kids who recently gained the right to […]

Week 9 Rest-of-Season Projections: Ike Davis, Jon Lester, Kelly Johnson
History repeats itself. Probably nowhere more than in sports. A player has a certain amount of ability and it is what it is. Once you have been in the league for a handful of years and you’re a 10 home run guy, 95% of the time you won’t have a 30 home run season. If […]
