Courtesy of DraftKings Line-Up Breakdown: I went with value and upside with my starting rotation. Both Marcus Stroman and Zach Eflin have tough match-ups but match-ups with high end upside. Both have been very good this season and I expect both to give quality production for what I paid for them. In my infield, I am sticking with Jonah Heim for the weekend. He is raking right now and the Oakland…

Bettors Edge: Nightly plays for 4/21/23
Here are nightly plays for tonight in MLB, the NBA and NHL Playoffs. It is a stacked line up tonight and there are a lot of great plays both in terms of moneylines, parlays and O/U’s. Remember, we use DraftKings for all of our betting needs so this is based on their format. MLB Cincinnati Reds at Pittsburgh Pirates Play: Under 8.5 Runs total Why? The Pirates offense has been good…

Fantasy Hockey: DFS Line Up for 4/21/23
Image courtesy of DraftKings Line-Up Breakdown: The Oilers have the most explosive offense in the NHL and as long as they are in the playoffs, I will be playing Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent Hopkins. They are guaranteed points in any game against any team. The three are about as automatic as any trio in all of fantasy sports. With Patrice Bergeron out the next two games for the…

Fantasy Basketball: DFS Line-Up for 4/21/23
Image courtesy of DraftKings Line-Up Breakdown: I like Jalen Brunson at home against the Cavs. Brunson has been good all season long from a fantasy standpoint and is poised for a big game against a Cavs team that is inconsistent on defense especially on the road. Brunson is a much cheaper play than his counterpart Donovan Mitchell. He is averaging 34.9 minutes per game which means he plays plenty and he…

Fantasy Baseball: DFS Line Up for 4/21/23
Image courtesy of DraftKings Line-Up Breakdown: I like Tyler Mahle match up at home against the lowly Washington Nationals and their struggling line up. Shohei Ohtani at home against a tough but free swinging Royals line up is very appealing. If nothing else, you know that he will hit double digit strikeouts and is worth the high end cost. Rangers catcher Jonah Heim has been raking of late and is…

Fantasy Baseball: DFS Plays of the Day for 7/15/22
It’s a full slate tonight with 13 games at 7:05, 4 games at 8:05 and 3 games at 9:38. Here are my plays of the day in DFS Great Plays Robbie Ray, P, Mariners ($9,800) Alek Manoah, P, Blue Jays ($9,000) Will Smith, C, Dodgers ($5,200) Jose Ramírez, 3B, Guardians ($5,400) Juan Soto, OF, Nationals ($6,500) Robbie Ray has been one of the best pitchers in baseball the past month…

Fantasy Baseball: DFS Line Up of the Day
Line Up Thoughts: I like Luis Severino ($9,200) against the free swinging Reds. He has the potential to go 6 plus innings and punch out 6-8 batters. Zack Wheeler ($9,700) is 8-4 on the season with a 2.46 ERA. He has 104 strikeouts on the season and he faces a Toronto line up that has a lot of swing and miss hitters in its line up. It is also a…

Fantasy Basketball: DFS line up of the day for 5/15/22
Line-Up Rational: I went with a Bucks, Celtics showdown line up. This series has been generous to DFS players. It is a guaranteed money series. You can’t go wrong with either Giannis or Tatum as your captain. Giannis has scored at least 60 fantasy points in five of six games, with a high of 83.5. I would suspect he’ll be somewhere in the 60-80 point range today if he’s your…

Fantasy Baseball: DFS line up of the day for 5/15/22
Line Up Rational: I like Carrasco and Cortes today against the free swinging line ups of the Mariners and White Sox. Sure, it’s a warm but both pitchers have good off speed stuff and that deception should keep both line ups in check. Rizzo against a fastball pitcher like Kopech is too good a match up to pass up. Especially at a park like Guaranteed Rate Field. Schoop has struggled…

Fantasy Basketball: Brodie and Bron might be better in fantasy than reality
The Los Angeles Lakers acquired Russell Westbrook from the Washington Wizards last night for Kyle Kuzma, Montrezl Harrell, KCP and the Lakers first round pick in last night’s draft. On the surface, it is a great trade for the Lakers because they add one of the best point guards of this generation and the only player to average a triple double for a season in NBA history. In reality however,…
