Fantasy Baseball Winners Find Value On Waiver Wire Where Others Can’t See It

By Sam McPherson

Most baseball fans have either read the book Moneyball by Michael Lewis or seen the movie version starring Brad Pitt. The lesson the book and the movie convey is that you have to think differently to find value in the sport—to uncover talent where no one else is looking.

Winning owners have to see the value where no other owner in their league does.
