This article references A, James Paxton, Nelson Cruz, SP and more! BALLER MOVE: Ignore in shallow formats; Stream in 12+ team mixed formats OWNED IN: 21% of Fleaflicker leagues ANALYSIS: Overall, Paxton has pedestrian numbers: 2-2 with a 3.59 ERA and 6.99 K/9. These middling numbers mask a massive month to month split, however, as his April ERA was an inflated 5.74 while the May figure has declined to 0.86. The real James Paxton is likely in the middle of the above extremes. Does that mean he should be on your fantasy team? Probably not, as Paxton's re[...]Keep on reading: James Paxton (SP, SEA) – Waiver Wire Pickups

I’ve decided to switch things up this week's edition of my starting pitcher waiver wire column. This week’s article will feature pitchers currently on the DL who are expected to return sometime this year, and who I believe can be fantasy assets for pitcher needy squads or teams with open DL slots. I’m a huge proponent of filling your DL slots so if you have some space listen up. Big disclaimer: If the Baller Move is to “Add in all leagues”, that is only if you have a free DL slot.

Happ, James Paxton, Michael Lorenzen, Roenis Elias, SP, Travis Wood, Tyler Lyons, Vance Worley, Wandy Rodriguez and more! Usually in the later parts of the MLB season, the future starting pitcher of several days in advance for most teams is listed as TBD. To Be Determined, to be exact.

Over the last year or so, TBD has shown up more often than not earlier in the season. This could be because teams are more cautious about overusing pitchers' arms tha[...]Keep on reading: Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 6 (Part2)
