Brandon Nimmo anticipates having a chat with Brett Baty upon the rookie's arrival. Nimmo's message? "We don't expect you to be a savior of this team or anything. Just play the game, have fun, enjoy this, and if you happen to get some hits while you are here, great." ..Read More

As we head into the second half of August, decent free agents on the 2022 fantasy baseball waiver wire are becoming harder to find. In Week 20, William Contreras is one of the hottest targets as he's hit five home runs in his last 15 games. Elsewhere, rookie first baseman Joey Meneses has had a sensational debut for the Nationals. In his first 11 MLB games, he's hit .385 and is currently rocking a .861 OPS. We'll also take a look at starting pitchers Braxton Garrett of the Marlins and Keegan Thompson of the Cubs, who are pitching well and are still available in many fantasy baseball leagues. Let's dive in!
Catcher is one of the most shallow positions in all of fantasy baseball so Jose Trevino’s recent surge has resulted in many fantasy baseball owners eyeing him on the waiver wire in Week 19. Elsewhere, newly acquired 1B Daniel Vogelbach is off to an incredible start in his first 14 games for the Mets. We’ll also take a look at Marlins SP Edward Cabrera, who’s only started at the mound four times this season due to injury. He returned to the mound Friday and recorded eight strikeouts in his first start since early June. Let’s take a look at the best fantasy baseball waiver-wire pickups in Week 19. This week, all of our free agent targets are available in 60% of fantasy baseball leagues or more. Let’s dive in!
Now into Week 19 of the regular season, it is becoming harder to find strong buy-low candidates based on our MLB Trade Value Charts. Still, guys such as 1B Matt Olson and 3B Manny Machado have seen their values drop considerably in comparison to their season-high trade values and are certainly worth a look if you can get them at a discounted price in your fantasy baseball league. Let’s take a look at the optimal infielders and outfielders to target in trades in Week 19 of the 2022 Fantasy Baseball season.
The Padres have come to terms with the Nationals on a deal that sends OF Juan Soto and 1B Josh Bell to San Diego. In turn, the Nationals will be receiving a package of more than five players including SS C.J. Abrams and lefty pitcher MacKenzie Gore. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/1554495295966351362
Adam Wainwright and Fransisco Lindor are incredibly undervalued on the Week 16 fantasy baseball Trade Value Chart. As we wrap up the month of July and head into the late Summer, some big-name players are ideal buy-low candidates. Wainwright and Lindor each have a trade value below 11.5 as we head into Week 17. On the other hand, DJ LeMahieu and Triston McKenzie have seen their trade values surge to the point that they are overvalued. Savvy fantasy owners may want to trade them while their respective values are this high. Let’s take a look at this week’s best fantasy baseball trade candidates to buy low or sell high.
Before their second game of the week against Mets last night, it was reported that the New York Yankees acquired left fielder Andrew Benintendi from the Royals in exchange for three minor league prospects. This season, Benintendi was voted into the All-Star game, with a career-high BA of .320. Learn more about our premium fantasy baseball tools and products!
Steven Kwan has been absolute lights out recently and is Week 16’s top fantasy baseball waiver-wire pickup. We’re now mid-way through the Summer and there aren’t a ton of decent options available on the waiver wire. However, if you take a deeper dive into the analytics, you will be surprised by the statistics next to names of players you’ve never even heard of before. If you are in desperation mode as you attempt to win your league, there are some good emergency options for fantasy owners looking to fill a hole at a certain position. Let’s take a look.
Clayton Kershaw may be one of the most sought-after pitchers in fantasy baseball as we gear up for the second half of the MLB season. We are approaching the All-Star Game and the trade deadline in most fantasy baseball leagues is only a few weeks away. If you want to improve your roster through a blockbuster trade, now is the time to start chatting up your fellow league-mates. The 2022 fantasy baseball season has had a little bit of everything including a ton of big surprises. Several superstars are underperforming while many young players have come out of nowhere to produce massive campaigns. As we gear up for the weekend in Week 14 of the fantasy baseball season, let’s identify a few potential players to consider selling high as well as a few players to consider targeting at a discounted price.
As we approach mid-July, two Yankees have made enough noise this season to truly consider picking up off the waiver wire. Fantasy baseball waiver wires are becoming more and more shallow as the season progresses. However, at the moment, both 2B Matt Carpenter and OF Aaron Hicks are available in more than 50% of leagues. Let’s examine how these two members of the New York Yankees (as well as a few other players across Major League Baseball) can help your fantasy baseball squad.
This week, some of the biggest names in baseball should be considered the most undervalued targets to shop for in a trade. Manny Machado, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and Mike Trout have seen their respective values drop substantially over the last month on the Trade Value Charts. Although all three are healthy, the dips in production are likely to level out considering these are some of Major League Baseball’s most dangerous hitters. This could be the perfect time to get one of these top-tier players at a discounted price. Max Scherzer’s value is lower than ever after missing the last two months of action. However, the ace threw a gem in his first start since May 18. His value is lower than ever after a two-month stint on the Injured List so now may be a good time to target him. Let’s take a look at the fantasy baseball assets to target in trades as we head into the weekend of Week 13.
