If you are off to a slow start in your fantasy baseball league(s), you probably have a high waiver priority. Last week’s fantasy baseball piece took a look at five names to make buy-low offers on to other managers in your league.

Want further proof? Sure enough as predicted, Chris Archer got lit up in a start against the Rex Sox last week before bouncing back with a strong outing against the Orioles last night, picking up the win while spinning 6.2 scoreless inning, striking out 10 and picking up the win.
