Cole Hamels to Chicago Cubs - Fantasy Implications rotoballer.com Sun 7/29/18 4:10 AM

It did not feel like we would ever get here, but finally, Cole Hamels was traded from the Texas Rangers. Very little in baseball has been more up and down than Hamels' performances this season. However, the Rangers finally found a trade partner in the Chicago Cubs, who were willing to give them the return they desired. The Rangers traded Hamels and cash considerations for right-handed pitchers Eddie Butler and Rollie Lacy as well as a player to be named later. The Chicago Cubs rotation now b[...]

Kyle Hendricks Pitches Great, Gets No Decision rotoballer.com Mon 7/9/18 9:01 PM

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks pitched a gem of a game Monday in San Francisco, but would not get a win. Hendricks went 8 1/3 innings and gave up five hits, struck out eight, and walked one (his final batter). He gave up one unearned run.

The Cut List (Week 15): Time to Let Go? rotoballer.com Sun 7/8/18 4:00 AM

Welcome to Week 15 of the Cut List. Each week, I highlight players who you should consider letting go in your fantasy baseball leagues. Whether it's hyped prospects who hit a wall or veterans in extended slumps, sometimes it's best to know when to move on. This week I'm taking a look at Ian Kinsler, Salvador Perez, Yasiel Puig, and Cole Hamels. I think these guys are safe cuts in nearly all standard leagues. Kinsler isn't worth holding in shallow formats, Perez is slumping, Puig is replaceabl[...]
