Dickey, RB, SP, SS, Taijuan Walker, Taylor Jungmann, TE, Tom Koehler, Wei-Yin Chen, Yordano Ventura, Yovani Gallardo and more! Welcome to the playoffs. It's a nerve-racking time when one disastrous pitching outing can be fatal. This week (and hence forth) I'm going to mix it up with my waiver wire material and focus on not only good pitching options, but also good pitching matchups for that particular week. All that matters at this point is getting you production to advance to the next week. As always, included are options for both shallow and deeper leagues.

Josh Tomlin (SP, CLE) – MLB Waiver Wire Pickups rotoballer.com Thu 9/10/15 6:30 AM

This article references A, C, Josh Tomlin, OF, SP, SS, TE and more! BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Josh Tomlin's career numbers have been nothing short of abysmal and yet owners should truly take a look at what Tomlin has done to keep Cleveland and his career afloat.

Last week's buys got off to a strong start. Josh Tomlin tossed a magnificent complete game in Detroit, while Raisel Iglesias spun another gem against the Cubs, notching double-digit strikeouts for the third straight start. Unfortunately, Iglesias was also shelled by the Pirates last night, and Drew Hutchison tossed a rare clunker at home against the Orioles. The sell side was no better. Hector Santiago posted six shutout innings and allowed only one hit, though he did walk six batters. Gio Gonza[...]Keep on reading: Buy & Sell Starting Pitchers for Week 23

An unseen factor that relates to September call-ups, at least in terms of the fantasy world, is the opportunity for young studs to flaunt their stuff in the majors. Most professional hitters will see a young pitcher for the first time in September and a lot of times the pitcher will have great success. Of course, there is the chance that the young gun gets blown up. Streaming pitchers that are making their first career starts is a giant risk, but if you are looking to win a fantasy championsh[...]Keep on reading: Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 22 (Part 2)
