Waiver Wire Week 22: Holliday In Nola
August 22, 2026 | 2026 Fantasy Baseball, fantasy baseball strategy, Featured | 12 CommentsIt really saddens me that we’re getting this close to the end of the season. This is when all the noobs take over the fantasy community with stupid fantasy football hot takes, but we’re going to keep grinding the waiver wire in our baseball leagues. We fantasy baseball nerds need to stand strong against the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s so wild that we’re in Week 21. That means we have less than two months remaining, and many of you are approaching your fantasy playoffs. I mostly play in head-to-head categories leagues because I’m a sick degenerate, but that’s always been the best format for using streamers. I truly love the everyday grind of […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We rarely showcase one team so much in any given article, but we love the Giants this week. There are numerous reasons for that, and it should be interesting to see how this rebuilt team looks in such a favorable week. They actually have my second-favorite matchups of any team, with the Rangers looking like […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?How are we about to be in August? It feels like the weeks and months are just flying by, and it also means the baseball season is nearing an end. We have about two months remaining, and one of the most important dates of the season is in 48 hours. That’s the trade deadline, and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It’s hard to believe, but we’ve hit the stretch run of the season. Most teams only have 50-60 games remaining, and the trade deadline is right around the corner. That’s always one of the most fascinating times to scrounge the waiver wire because there are the occasional league-winners after some trades. Most of the big […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Each team has only played a few games since my last waiver wire article was published, so not much has changed. The good news is that the waiver wire never sleeps, and now’s the time to make a push in your fantasy leagues. I can’t wait for these final months to play out, and it […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The waiver wire picks are always volatile, but I’ve been pleased with the results. Mickey Moniak was our highlight player last week, and he might’ve single-handedly won people their leagues. Understanding the schedule is the most impactful factor on the waiver wire, and this is one of the most unique weeks of the season. The […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?When I started this article a few months ago, I was hesitant to recommend the same players in back-to-back weeks. I’ve come to learn that it’s mandatory for a waiver wire piece, though, because people need to be reminded when a player is sitting on too many waiver wires. With that said, I do not […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The injuries have been out of control, but that’s the best time to scavenge the waiver wire. There are new players popping up every week due to these injuries, and stumbling into those gems can change your fantasy season. Discovering those diamonds in the rough off the waiver wire is one of my favorite aspects […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I had some unique streamers last week, and I had some mixed results. What’s really sucked about the last week is all of the injuries across MLB. The worst aspect of fantasy baseball is dealing with injuries, especially when they’re piling up like they are right now. There’s always a month like this every year, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I was really pleased with last week’s streamers. I really didn’t have a good feeling about it while I was writing it, but the results ended up great. Our two hitters were fantastic, while most of the sketchy pitching streamers were solid as well. That’s all we could ask for in a week where we […]
