Friday Five: Pitchers for the Stretch Run rotoballer.com Fri 9/7/18 3:15 AM

Last week, we covered five under-owned hitters who could provide a boost to fantasy owners in the season's final month. Today, it's time to do the same for pitchers. With the end of the 2018 campaign rapidly approaching, it can be difficult to find worthwhile arms on the waiver wire in competitive leagues. That's true whether you're duking it out in a win or go home playoff matchup in a head-to-head league or scrapping for the numbers to put you over the hump in a rotisserie setup. These f[...]

Week 24 Waiver Wire: H2H Category Streamers rotoballer.com Fri 9/7/18 3:00 AM

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago by completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster and you can't drop anyone. But for those of us with a couple of guys on the roster fringes, it's never too early to look into targeting a specific player or two to [...]

Jake Junis Strikes Out Eight In No-Decision rotoballer.com Tue 8/7/18 8:49 AM

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jake Junis watched five solid innings of one-run ball go up in smoke as Kevin McCarthy gave up a solo shot to the first batter he faced after relieving Junis. Junis only threw 87 pitches, but he was lifted a little early due to a rain delay that had occurred. At this point, it looks like Junis is a mediocre pitcher for a bad team, so he doesn't have much fantasy value except in moments of desperation. The eight strikeouts he racked up were only the second ti[...]
