Fantasy Baseball: Starting pitcher analysis for the Week 14 waiver wire
Finding the perfect pitcher to add to your Fantasy baseball team can be the difference between winning your league or going home with nothing. And before you determine which low-owned pitchers you should target, and which you should avoid, heading into Week 14, you absolutely need to see what Fantasy analyst Jeff Zimmerman has to say.
Zimmerman has written at FanGraphs, Hardball Times, RotoWire, ESPN, Baseball America, and Beyond the Boxscore. He has won several FSTA awards including Best Baseball Series and Football Writer of the Year. He's participated in Tout Wars and won it twice (15-mixed auction and 12-team H2H). Along with Tanner Bell, he just published the first edition of "The Process", a complete guide for running your own Fantasy baseball start-to-finish. If there's anybody who knows what it takes to win a league, it's him.
Now, he's done an in-depth analysis of some of the most intriguing waiver wire pitchers for Week 14. One thing we can tell you: Zimmerman is high on Cubs pitcher Adbert Alzolay, even though he's owned in less than 30 percent of leagues.
"The Cubs piggybacked the 24-year-old righty to make his major league debut after Tyler Chatwood started the game," Zimmermain said. "In four innings of work, he allowed just one run off a solo homer with five strikeouts and two walks. It was good enough for him to get a win and another start this coming Tuesday. In 32 Triple-A innings this year, he has a 12.9 K/9, 1.1 BB/9, and a 3.09 ERA… Overall, I believe he's a must own at this point but maybe not a must start. He'll not stay on the waiver wire long enough for the Fantasy community to get a perfect picture of his talent."
Zimmerman has also identified which pitchers you should target if your teams needs a jolt. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his breakdowns before making the call on any waiver wire pitchers.
