Ottoneu never rests, even for holiday weekends, and extra time off often serves as an opportunity to catch up on cleaning up rosters, filling gaps in the lineup, or just making interesting trades and pickups. As we wrap up 4th of July weekend, there are five players who are up for auction in 25 or more leagues.
A couple of rookie hitters will get most of this week’s attention but for teams needing Saves, a few options have come available.
In the article, I cover the players using CBS’s (about 40% or less initial roster rate) and Yahoo’s ADD/DROP rates. Both hosting sites have the option for daily and weekly waiver wire adds. CBS uses a weekly change while Yahoo looks at the last 24 hours. Yahoo is a great snapshot of right now while CBS ensures hot targets from early in the week aren’t missed. The players are ordered for redraft leagues by my rest-of-season preference grouped by starters, relievers, and hitters. Read the rest of this entry »
While the NFBC Main Event garners most of the attention, there are a handful of leagues with even a larger entry fee ($2.5K to $15K). They get originally named “High Stakes Leagues” and this year there are nine of them. With so much money on the line, these fantasy managers are going to try to gain any advantage. Most of the time, these managers will be a week or two ahead of everyone else on their adds. Here are the players and some information on the ones added in five or more of these leagues.

: As always, I’m going to try to get to all the FAAB and waiver questions before I get to any trade and prospect questions.

: Any interest in Maximo Castillo? Deep leagues for sure but looked decent in relief, fanning 7 in 4 innings of relief and might get a start this week

: Not yet but it wouldn’t take much in the current starting pitcher landscape

Plenty of hitters are available on the wire, but any decent pitching is scarce.

I use the 40% threshold at CBS to make sure I examine every player whose rostership is rising. Sometimes I might miss a player or two, but there are some obvious misses (Taveras, Oliveras, and Gonzalez) this week so I’m thinking of other options going forward. Or it might just have been an off week.

My initial findings from this week's waiver wire article:
I hope you like your pitching staff because you're likely stuck with it for the rest of the season. The wire is picked clean.
