Categorically Speaking: Finding Late Season Winners Isn't Hard

If you've found yourself just a few wins away from being able to gain a point or two, maybe more, in your fantasy baseball league, you'll need to hit the waiver wire for help.

Here are five options to consider:

Wade Davis, Rays - Davis hasn't lost since June 27 and is 7-0 in the 10 starts he's made since. He did spend some time on the disabled list, but is 3-0 with a 3.24 ERA in four starts since rejoining the team. With series coming up against Seattle, Baltimore and Kansas City, Davis could notch a few more wins before the season ends. Davis is only owned in 18 percent of fantasy leagues at the moment.

Rick Porcello, Tigers - Porcello has four wins over the last month and his most recent four starts have all been quality starts where he has a 2.48 ERA. He does have a strained tendon in his index finger which will force him to skip a start this week, but he's close to being healthy and should continue to pitch well for the remainder of the season. Porcello is owned in 38 percent of fantasy leagues.

Categorically Speaking: Runs | RBI | HR | SB | Wins | K's | Saves

Carlos Zambrano, Cubs - Zambrano is coming off of an 8 2/3 inning gem where he only gave up three hits and no earned runs. He's 5-0 in seven starts since making his way back into the rotation which conveniently coincides with his finishing anger management classes. Zambrano is owned in 54 percent of fantasy leagues.

Jeremy Guthrie, Orioles - Guthrie has won his last three starts and has only given up two earned runs in the three games. In fact, nine of his last 11 starts have been quality starts and since the All-Star Break Guthrie has a 2.29 ERA. Guthrie is only owned in 15 percent of fantasy leagues.

Jhoulys Chacin, Rockies - Chacin has given up just four earned runs over his last five starts and will be a huge part of the playoff run the Rockies are putting together right now. Colorado has won 10 of their last 12 games and it's easier to get wins when a team is playing well. Chacin is only owned in 21 percent of fantasy leagues.

Categorically Speaking is designed specifically for Rotisserie GMs. The information is great for all fantasy baseball formats, but for those of you who could use some help bolstering a specific roto category, this is for you. We're going to pay close attention to players who might be readily available on your waiver wire or who you might target in non-blockbuster trade talks.
