BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: While it is an extremely small sample size, Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins had a 2.6 offensive WAR over the last seven days. He has pulled 48% of his balls in play, and his 30% hard-contact rate has contributed to one HR. Although his .400 BABIP from last week will not last, he has made contact 96% of the time against RHP with a 1.130 OPS in 24 at-bats. With playing time in his future over the final six w[...]

As we enter the final six weeks of the season, we will look at our rosters to see which players are performing at their best. With a look at the data since the All-Star break, there are several names to target. We will look to roster the players that best fit our plans and categorical needs down the stretch. In the last 30 days, Jacob deGrom, Max Scherzer, and Gerrit Cole are in the top ten in pitching WAR. Here are some other names to consider to help our fantasy teams move up categories [...]

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins will lead off and play center field versus righty Marco Estrada on Monday. Mullins is hitting .357/.419/.607 with one home run and three RBI over the last two weeks. He's only worth owning in AL-only leagues, but that could quickly change due to how well he's been hitting. DFS players should consider Mullins as a cheap sleeper pick on Monday.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins will lead off and play center field versus righty Carlos Carrasco on Friday. Mullins normally bats near the bottom of the batting order, but will move up to the top for this contest. He's been on fire, hitting .400/.478/.600 over the last week, so it's understandable why the Orioles moved him up in the order. Carrasco is a difficult pitcher to hit, but Mullins has been nearly impossible to stop. Mullins is a cheap sleeper option for DFS contests on F[...]

Hello everyone, and welcome to my weekly Top-30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies! In this series, I will be going over the top prospects in baseball and discussing which ones figure to have an impact for the rest of this fantasy baseball season. Ronald Acuna cannot be stopped when leading off a ball game. He has been on a tear lately, seemingly launching home runs with ease every other game. Though he missed some time earlier this year, the former No. 1 prospect in the game has excelled in[...]

Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Cedric Mullins looked right at home in the big-league lineup in his Friday debut against the Red Sox, going 3-for-4 with a single, two doubles, two RBI, and a walk. The 23-year-old hit .288 with 11 home runs, 46 RBI, and 21 stolen bases in 108 games between Double-A Bowie and Triple-A Norfolk, so he is an intriguing fantasy player. He will be the team's everyday center fielder, so he will be able to get routine at-bats. [...]

Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Cedric Mullins will be the team's everyday center fielder moving forward, with Adam Jones moving to right field. Mullins is the team's No. 9 prospect, and they might as well get a good look at him to close out the year with nothing on the line. He was hitting .288 with 11 home runs, 46 RBI, 21 stolen bases and 76 runs scored in 108 games between Double-A Bowie and Triple-A Norfolk, so Mullins is definitely a candidate to be added in deep mixed and AL-only le[...]

Hello everyone, and welcome to my weekly Top-30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies! In this series, I will be going over the top prospects in baseball and discussing which ones figure to have an impact for the rest of this fantasy baseball season. The season is really starting to wind down. There are only going to be three more of these lists coming out before the rosters expand to 40 players. But until then, there is still plenty of important prospect names to follow. Though most of the pl[...]

Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to take advantage of breakouts or impact bats before others sure can. The primary challenge of playing in an NL or AL-only league is often the lack of options regarding adding and subtracting players when neede[...]
