In 2024, offense dominated the first round of the NFL Draft. The first 14 players off the board played on the offensive side, and 25 of the top 34 were offensive players. It evened out a little after that, but it helped highlight the point that it is an offensive league.
It's been a rough start to the season for the Atlanta Braves.
It's time for another fantasy basketball waiver wire story!
After looking at the top fantasy baseball performances from hitters already, let's check out how pitchers fared on Monday, March 31.
Fourteen MLB games were played on Monday, March 31, so we have plenty to discuss.
Early in the season, I've been stressing that you don't have to use fantasy pitchers that you're not excited about right now. Most leagues have inning limits, so using some of those innings with below-average pitchers against lineups we don't really know yet isn't a good way to divvy up your resources.
The NBA regular season is winding down quickly, so that means fantasy basketball matchups are becoming more and more important.
Every day since the MLB regular season opened, I've been putting together recaps of the previous day of action. I plan to keep doing that all season, but with the focus on waiver wire hitters, some of the best fantasy hitters are skipped over.
After looking at the top fantasy hitting performances from Sunday, along with pitching performances (and the top waiver wire options for hitters and pitchers), it's time to move on to the second week of fantasy play.
After looking at the top waiver wire fantasy hitter performances (and then the top overall waiver adds) in one story, we're back to see how pitchers fared.
