It’s the Fourth of July and there are a lot of great match ups available. I want to make some quick money today so rather than going with a classic line up, I’m going with a showdown line up. I invested heavily in power. I like the pitching match up of Pleasac versus Homer Bailey for the big bats. Both throw a lot of off speed pitches but they do…
Here is our winning Draft Kings line up for Sunday June 30th. We spent heavy with Scherzer at the top because he has a great match up against his former team and has averaged 25.5 points per start in Draft Kings DFS this season. He is worth every penny. The rest of our line up is balanced and features quality power in the outfield with Bryant, Jimenez and Soler. All…
Today futures some great pitching match ups and hitter versus pitcher match ups. It could be a good day. Here is our line up. P: Jon Gray, Rockies at Marlins ($9400): Gray makes his season debut against a light hitting Marlins line up that doesn’t really have a power threat. Gray is one of the best plays of the day. P: Trevor Williams, Pirates at Reds ($8,800): I paid for…
Day three of the baseball season offers us some great hitting match ups. We are going to look to take advantage of them on Draft Kings. Here is our line up for today. P: Trevor Bauer, Indians at Twins ($9,800): Bauer has a tough match up in his first start of the season against an improved Twins line up. The Twins also have a lot of swing and miss guys…
It is opening day, one of the best days of the year on the sports calendar. Here is our first DFS line up of the season. P: Carlos Rodon, White Sox at Royals ($7,500): Rodon was dominant in August and September last season. When his command is good, Rodon is as good as any left handed starter in baseball thanks to a fastball that he can bust inside on righties. He…
Utility is the name of the game in baseball today. Now more than ever, teams want guys that can play everyday, play multi positions and accumulate at bats. Here are nine players who are valuable utility guys. Enrique Hernandez, 2B/SS/OF, Dodgers: Hernandez is going to be the starting second baseman for the Dodgers but he will still continue to play shortstop and in the outfield as well. Dave Roberts like using…
We all know that a strong starting rotation can help you win a championship in fantasy and reality. We also know that not every team has an ace. Here are nine pitchers that could help you win your league that are not aces Patrick Corbin, Nationals: Corbin signed a six year, $140 million dollar deal with the Nationals this off season. Corbin is the Nationals number three starter on paper…
Every year, there are certain players you draft because you are comfortable with them. I get it. I do the same thing. It is time however to break that trend. So with that said, here are nine players to avoid. Nelson Cruz, DH, Twins: Nellie has been a model of consistency at the plate the past five seasons. He has averaged 42 home runs and 104 RBI’s in that span….
Every year there are certain players that fly under the radar that can help your team. Here are nine players (position players and pitchers) that you should consider drafting. Enrique Hernandez, SS/OF/2B, Dodgers: Hernandez will be the Dodgers starting second baseman but like his predecessor Chris Taylor, he will also play shortstop and in the outfield. Hernandez belted 21 home runs and had 462 plate appearances. He could easily match…
Max Scherzer pitched 300 innings for the Nationals last season. I used to be one of those guys that drafted a balanced team. Whether it be in a ten team league or a twelve team league, I would draft the best player on the board depending on where I picked. Using that strategy helped as I was able to make the playoffs consistently and make deep playoff runs. I have…
