Yahoo Sports’ Andy Behrens and Matt Harmon explain why fantasy managers should add Kansas City’s Isiah Pacheco and Green Bay’s Christian Watson this week. Video Transcript [AUDIO LOGO] MATT HARMON: All right, Andy. We have shoveled through some absolutely terrible waiver weeks recently. ANDY BEHRENS: [LAUGHS] MATT HARMON: Well, guess what. Here heading into week 11, we got a lot of guys that are really interesting that people can pick up out there. Let’s give them two that we really, really like… Source link

It’s never too early to look toward your next matchup and a chance to bolster your fantasy football lineups. Here are two options to consider on the waiver wire ahead of Week 10. Jeff Wilson Jr., RB, Miami Dolphins (51 percent rostered) Wilson has steadily climbed above the 50 percent threshold, but it’s still worth checking to see if he’s available in your league, as this is definitely last call for the running back. Wilson split carries right down the middle with incumbent Miami starter Source link

If you felt the 2022 fantasy season was difficult to navigate over its first five weeks, just wait. The tough stuff is actually just beginning. The byes are about to hit in Week 6, with four teams suddenly unavailable (Detroit, Houston, Las Vegas, Tennessee). Even the healthiest fantasy rosters are gonna have to make a few moves this week. Below you’ll find a collection of approved pickups, all of them available in at least 50 percent of Yahoo leagues. Running backs on the wire Kenneth Walker… Source link

If your rosters are loaded with little red Os and Qs and IRs following Week 3 … well, you are definitely not alone. It was a rough weekend. We can’t promise to fix all your fantasy issues, but we can offer a few potentially useful adds ahead of Week 4. Below you’ll find a collection of approved pickups, all of them available in at least 50 percent of Yahoo leagues. Let’s begin with a running back who honestly should have been scooped up weeks ago… Priority adds at running back If Herbert… Source link

Excellent work drafting this year’s fantasy teams, everyone. Absolutely stellar team-building. Each of your lineups is basically a work of art, thoughtfully and lovingly crafted — an expression of the boldest and most audacious ideas at the leading edge of modern fantasy theory. Well done, all of you. Let’s try not to focus on your automated draft grades just now, but instead appreciate the limitless potential of each of your fine fantasy squads. Truly remarkable roster construction. Every… Source link

Many potential fantasy waiver wire gems emerge during the initial weeks of every season. This year, I constantly see recommendations to pick up the likes of Steven Kwan, Tylor Megill, Jesus Luzardo and many other players who started the season on waivers in most leagues before producing inspiring April statistics. Unfortunately, rosters don’t grow in size after Opening Day, and every addition means that someone needs to go. Based on early season numbers, here are some commonly-rostered… Source link

You have roster needs, we have sensible solutions. All players featured here are available in a majority of Yahoo leagues and all can (hopefully) help your fantasy squad. Let’s go prospecting… Jarren Duran, OF, Boston Red Sox (10% rostered) Let’s get ahead of the next buzzy call-up by getting Duran stashed today — right now. Do it. Duran has homered six times in his last 12 games, including a walk-off opposite-field bomb on Sunday: He’s up to 13 homers on the season at Triple-A along with… Source link

The waiver wire is full of exciting options at the moment. Whether you’re in need of a slugger or a speedster, there are hitters who can help you out. And the pitchers are just as exciting, with those who produce strikeouts or saves waiting to join your squad. Haase has been one of baseball’s most powerful players of late, having produced six home runs and a 1.833 OPS since the beginning of June. And his hot bat has earned him additional playing time considerations, as 4 of his 17 starts… Source link

Just in case you hadn’t noticed: The injuries, they’re bad. Terrible, in fact. Dramatically up compared to 2019. Everyone’s fantasy roster is hurting. It’s rough out there. Let’s try to find a few solutions on the wire for fantasy managers in desperate need of short-term fixes… Margot delivered a walk-off single against the Royals on Wednesday… …continuing a scorching hot stretch for the veteran outfielder. He has multiple hits in each of his last four starts. Margot has four homers among… Source link

Special to Yahoo Sports With the NHL trade deadline done and the start of fantasy playoffs in many leagues, things are getting intense. If you’ve made it this far, then there’s some sort of pressure — even if you have a bye this week (or two, like the person who wrote this column). As long as you stick to what you’ve been doing, things will turn out fine. Or not. As this is a shortened season, I’ll try not to repeat any previous entries for the remainder of the campaign. That may be difficult… Source link
