After this weekend, there are only seven more weeks of the fantasy baseball season. For those who use a playoff format, the urgency is even greater as the regular season is quickly coming to an end. We need to be more focused than we have at any point in the year, as we can't afford to drop off.
Waiver-Wire Targets:
Atlanta Braves Reliever Mark Melancon -- The Braves have tried hard to stabilize their bullpen through trades, but it has come with mixed results. The veteran Melancon is currently in line to pick up saves for the first-place Braves, evidenced by the team giving him the ball in the ninth inning Aug. 13. However, he is currently only 34 percent owned in Yahoo! Sports leagues. This makes no sense and we need to take advantage. As of right now, Melancon is the closer for a first place team. Pick him up.
