Fantasy Baseball Diamond Market - NL

Fantasy baseball waivers and the acquisition of fantasy baseball free agents can make or break your season. Your fantasy baseball cheat sheets won't help you after spring training. If your team remains the same after opening day, you will have trouble competing in your rotisserie baseball league.

Do you need to replace your fantasy baseball busts? Which fantasy baseball players can you ignore? KFFL.com's Fantasy Baseball Diamond Market gives you fantasy baseball tips and insight to sort through the masses quickly.

Key

Acquire	Add player (in most circumstances)
Consider	Add for speculation or because of need
Watch	Track player, consider if trend continues
Pass	Do not add player (in most circumstances)

Pitchers

Brandon League, RP, Seattle Mariners

Aardsma unavailable

Times are tough, but in the season's final week, especially if you play in a league with daily lineups, you have a chance to cycle players who can have a short-term impact in certain categories, like the cumulative ones, and gain a surprise point or two, where they're close.

David Aardsma is sidelined for a few days with a strained oblique. Rarely does optimism regarding a strained oblique meet the result it's hoping for.

Things have been a little rough for League lately, but he has filled in for Aardsma quite capably this year in similar circumstances. He has four saves, to go along with a 3.55 ERA, a 1.24 WHIP and a grounder rate of more than 60 percent.

Shallow mixed: Consider

Deep mixed: Acquire

AL-only: Acquire
