The second week of the season is coming to a close and hopefully your season long team will be sitting at 2-0. If not, it’s time to hit the waiver wire and address what your team is lacking. This week’s edition has a player to provide some saves, two starters with swing-and-miss stuff and two position players at relatively thin positions. It’s always nice to make money during the week playing DFS, but is there anything sweeter than winning your league after months of hard work? Absolutely not.

Hit me up on Twitter if you have any questions. Let’s get into it.

Jeanmar Gomez, RP PHI— The quest for cheap saves is a journey all fantasy owners embark on during the course of the baseball season. He hasn’t been officially announced as the team’s closer, but he’s received the team’s last four save opportunities, so in my eyes, he’s their closer. Since “taking over” the closer role, he’s a perfect 4-for-4, allowing just one run in the process. He’s only punched out two batters in his last four innings, but hey, hopefully you have other guys to up your K/9. If you roster Gomez, you’re doing so for saves, not for the K/9. He’s allowed a base runner in each of his last three outings, but only one runner has crossed the plate while Gomez was pitching. Philadelphia isn’t going to win a lot of games, but they aren’t going to blow anyone out, so when they are winning a baseball game, chances are they are going to need Gomez to close it out late. The right-hander is a cheap source of saves, but the Philadelphia offense is going to struggle to put up runs, limiting his number of save opportunities.

Aledmys Diaz, SS STL— Jhonny Peralta’s spring training injury thrusted Diaz into starting role with the Cardinals, and Diaz has run away with the gig. He’s playing extremely well and he left the yard for the second time in last night’s game with the Cincinnati Reds. Are Diaz’s numbers above big league expectations? Of course they are, but his numbers in the minors suggest that a major regression isn’t imminent. In 136 games at Double-A, Diaz hit 13 homers, stole seven bases and hit .270. He played in just 14 games at Triple-A, leaving the yard three times and slashing an impressive .380/.448/.620.  In the early stages here in 2016, Diaz is showing no problems with his splits, hitting righties and southpaws equally well. The shortstop position is thin in 2016, but if you need some help, Diaz can provide some short-term relief.

Drew Pomeranz, SP SD— Pomeranz is the first of two pitchers in this piece that can help your team’s K/9 in seasonal leagues. The San Diego southpaw is 1-1 on the year with a 3.27 ERA and 1.18 WHIP through two starts. He also has 15 strikeouts in just 11 innings pitched. Sure, eight of them came against the Phillies, but the other seven came against the Rockies at Coors Field. He has always displayed above average swing and miss stuff, as seen by his career 8.21 K/9. If Pomeranz can continue striking out batters, which he should, he can be very valuable as a backend starter on your fantasy team. Don’t count on him for wins though, because San Diego’s anemic offense will make it extremely hard for the southpaw to get some wins. He held the Phillies to two earned runs in his last start, but Philadelphia’s Vincent Velasquez struck out 16 Padres in a complete game shutout. Even though he won’t get wins, he has shown above-average swing-and-miss stuff, so if you need strikeouts, Pomeranz is your guy.

Tony Wolters, C COL— The Rockies have yet to confirm whether or not regular starter Nick Hundley has a concussion, but he hasn’t played since the incident, opening the door for Tony Wolters. Wolters has started the last two games and he has played extremely well. He is 3-for-8 with two runs scored, one RBI and three stolen bases. Yes, THREE stolen bases for a catcher. It’s interesting though, because other than 2011 at Single-A, he hasn’t swiped more than five bags in a season in the minors. It is worth noting that he stole 19 bases in 2011. The stolen bases aren’t going to pile up like they have in recent days, but as long as Hundley is out, he is at least a threat to swipe a bag when he reaches base. Wolters has also gotten off to a hot start, but a career .258 minor league hitter with no at-bats above Triple-A signify that he is going to regress at some point in the future. However, if you were relying on Hundley as your backstop, go ahead and grab Wolters behind the dish. He may not be the best hitter, but he does have speed and Coors Field could mask some of those hitting issues for a bit. Wolters could prove some short-term relief in a few categories from behind the dish.

Adam Conley, SP MIA— From a personal standpoint, this is one of my favorite young pitchers. Conley, a 25-year-old southpaw, earned a rotation spot with the Marlins after his impressive spring. In 9.2 innings, Conley posted a 1.86 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and held the opposition to a .161 batting average. Conley didn’t strike many guys out in the spring, but that’s unusual for the southpaw. He has a career K/9 in the minors of 8.12 and he posted a 7.9 mark in 67 innings with the Marlins last season. Conley’s season debut was rough, allowing three earned runs in one innings against the Nationals, but his second start of the season was impressive. In six innings against the New York Mets, he allowed just four hits and one walk, while striking out nine batters. His next start will come against the Washington Nationals, and he should produce much better results than the first go around. The Marlins are able to score some runs, so he has a better chance of accruing some wins compared to fellow southpaw Drew Pomeranz. Conley has a bright future in the majors, so you should probably scoop him up before someone else does.
