Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller

5043 articles

You won't find a bigger Cubs fan than myself. Aside from my love of fantasy sports, which includes MLB, NFL and NBA, I own my own animal care business. I graduated from Columbia College in Chicago and currently reside in Chicago, IL. My love of fantasy sports started for me in the early 2000's and I have steadily been active with the same group of friends year in and year out for every league in baseball, basketball and football. I am hoping to help all RotoBaller members with any questions they may have. I consider myself an expert with minor league prospects, as it is a love of mine. I hope to give the best advice I can to the RotoBaller world!

Kyle Hendricks Shines In No-Decision

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks picked up a tough no-decision on Wednesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Hendricks went six innings and allowed just four hits, zero runs, one walk and struck out six on the evening. Hendricks did his part on Wednesday, but the Cubs offense continued to struggle and let him down. It […]


White Sox Resting Andrew Vaughn On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox left fielder Andrew Vaughn will rest on Wednesday versus the Seattle Mariners. Vaughn has started four of the White Sox first six games, but is just 1-for-11 with two runs scored and a RBI. Vaughn is one of the top power hitting prospects in the game and also is a very good […]


Hot-Hitting Yermin Mercedes Gets Day Off

Chicago White Sox catcher/designated hitter Yermin Mercedes will receive a day off on Wednesday versus the Seattle Mariners. Mercedes has been one of the early surprises in the fantasy community and started the season 8-for-8. Mercedes overall is hitting an insane .542 with one home run and six RBI to go along with just three […]


Yoan Moncada Absent From Wednesday’s Lineup

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada will rest on Wednesday versus the Seattle Mariners. Moncada has been off to a slow start in 2021 and is just 4-for-22 with 12 strikeouts on the season. Plate discipline has always been a weakness for the former top prospect and hopefully Wednesday's day off will help him […]


Tim Anderson Sent To Injured List

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list retroactive to April 5. Anderson left Sunday's contest after the first inning when he strained his left hamstring running to first base. The All-Star tried to tough it out the past couple of days, but now finds himself sidelined until […]


Willson Contreras Will Rest On Wednesday

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras will get the day off on Wednesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Contreras has been hit twice, including once in the head this series and things have gotten heated between him and the Brewers. Manager David Ross will let Contreras avoid that on Wednesday and Tony Wolters will draw his first […]


Zack Collins Hits First Home Run Of 2021

Chicago White Sox catcher Zack Collins went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and two strikeouts on Tuesday versus the Seattle Mariners. Collins got the start on Tuesday with starting catcher Yasmani Grandal getting a day off and the White Sox didn't miss a beat. Collins has now caught three of the White Sox games […]


Luis Robert Crushes Two-Run Home Run

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, two RBI and one walk versus the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday evening. Robert crushed a two-run long ball in the top of the fifth inning to give the White Sox a 5-3 lead at the time and it would turn out to be […]


Jose Abreu Drives In Five

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu went 1-for-4 with a grand slam and five RBI on Tuesday versus the Seattle Mariners. The grand slam would be Abreu's 200th career home run. The reigning American League MVP is now hitting .208 with a pair of home run and nine RBI on the season. Abreu remains […]


Lucas Giolito Whiffs 10 In Victory

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito struck out 10 on Tuesday versus the Seattle Mariners. Giolito also allowed four hits, three runs and one walk on the evening. Giolito looked like his vintage self in the first two innings, but was hurt with bad defense by second baseman Nick Madrigal and Zack Collins in […]


Adbert Alzolay Picks Up Loss In First Start Of 2021

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Adbert Alzolay lasted five innings in his first outing of the season on Tuesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Alzolay allowed four hits, four runs, two walks and struck out four on evening. Alzolay allowed a three-run home run to infielder Travis Shaw in the first inning, but settled down as the […]


Yasmani Grandal Crushes 150th Career Home Run

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal went 2-for-4 with a home run on Monday versus the Seattle Mariners. The home run was the catchers 150th of his career and he also finished with two runs scored, three RBI and a walk. Grandal now has two multi-hit games on the young season and five RBI. The […]


Carlos Rodon Whiffs Nine In Season Debut

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon looked sharp in his first start of the season versus the Seattle Mariners on Monday night. The lefty ran into trouble in the bottom of the fourth inning with three walks, but was on his game otherwise. The injury plagued veteran would finish with a line of two […]


Alec Mills Picks Up First Save

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Alec Mills converted his first save of the season on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Mills was called upon after Craig Kimbrel pitched on Saturday and Sunday. Mills worked a 1-2-3 inning to earn the save and recorded one strikeout. Mills is a former starter, but lost his spot in the […]


David Bote Hits First Home Run Of 2021

Chicago Cubs second baseman David Bote went 1-for-3 with a solo home run on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Bote hit the solo shot as part of back-to-back home runs with shortstop Javier Baez in the bottom of the fourth inning versus Brett Anderson. Bote won the second base job with a nice spring, but […]


Trevor Williams Performs Well In Cubs Debut

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Trevor Williams performed well in his Cubs debut on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Williams retired the first 15 batters he faced and worked into the seventh inning before walking Christian Yelich and a single to Avisail Garcia. Williams was then pulled and reliever Jason Adam allowed a three-run home run […]


Willson Contreras Goes Yard For First Time In 2021

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras hit his first home run of the season on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Contreras crushed a two-run shot off Brewers starter Brett Anderson in the bottom of the fourth inning and it was his only hit on the evening. Contreras also got hit in the head by reliever Devin […]


Javier Baez Hits First Home Run Of 2021

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and hit by pitch on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Baez was hit by a pitch on his knee and fell down hard in the bottom of the sixth inning, but would stay in the game. Baez is looking to bring some of […]


Adam Eaton Will Sit On Monday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Adam Eaton will rest on Monday versus the Seattle Mariners. With left-hander Justus Sheffield on the mound, the opportunity came give Eaton a day off. Eaton has hit second in three of the White Sox four games this season and could have sneaky value for managers seeking runs if he remains […]


Tim Anderson Out Of Monday's Lineup

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (hamstring) will remain sidelined on Monday versus the Seattle Mariners. Anderson suffered a left hamstring strain on Sunday and exited the game immediately. The All-Star has been off to a slow start with just three hits in his first 15 at-bats, but has slugged a home run on the […]


Jason Heyward Sitting Versus Lefty On Monday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward will rest on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. With left-hander Brett Anderson on the hill, it makes sense to give the veteran outfielder a day off. Heyward is 2-for-11 on the season with a home run, but most of his value comes on defense and managers can feel safe leaving […]


Joc Pederson Gets Monday Off

Chicago Cubs outfielder Joc Pederson will have his first day off of the season on Monday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Pederson hit eight home runs in the spring, but has been hitless in 10 at-bats with five strikeouts so far. The slugger came over to the Cubs with the promise that he'd be able to […]


Dylan Cease Walks Three In 2021 Debut

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dylan Cease earned a no decision in his first start of the 2021 season. Cease went 4 2/3 innings and allowed five hits, three runs, three walks and struck out three on the evening. Cease has struggled with walks in his young career, but can be helpful to managers in […]


Tim Anderson Day-To-Day With Left Hamstring Tightness

Updating an earlier report, Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson left Sunday's contest early with left hamstring tightness. It's a sigh of relief for fantasy managers and the Chicago White Sox. The All-Star shortstop is being listed as day-to-day and it looks like he will be back at some point this week. Utility man Leury […]


Tim Anderson Exits Early

Chicago White Sox shortstop has exited Sunday's game versus the Los Angeles Angels. Anderson hurt himself and was seen hobbling after hitting the first base bag on a ground out. Fantasy managers and the White Sox will be holding their breath as more news should be known as the evening goes on. Anderson is one […]


Craig Kimbrel Picks Up First Save

Chicago Cubs closer Craig Kimbrel worked a perfect inning to pick up his first save of the season on Sunday versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Kimbrel struck out two of the three batters he faced and his velocity and control looked stellar. The closer has now pitched back-to-back perfect innings and has struck out five of […]


Joc Pederson Remains Hitless

Chicago Cubs outfielder Joc Pederson finished 0-for-4 with a RBI on Sunday versus the Pittsburgh Pirates, but remains hitless in 10 at-bats with one walk and two RBI on the season to go along with five strikeouts. Pederson came over from the Los Angeles Dodgers this offseason and was scorching hot during the spring with […]


Zach Davies Performs Well In 2021 Debut

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Zach Davies had a nice debut with his new club on Sunday versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Davies cruised through the first five innings, before allowing a two-run homer to Colin Moran with two outs in the top of the sixth inning. Davies would finish the game with a line of four […]


Ian Happ Hits First Home Run Of 2021

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ hit his first home run of the season on Saturday versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Happ finished the game 1-for-2 with two runs scored, one RBI and a pair of walks. The outfielder should be a strong source of runs and power this season and is in a prime position at […]


Andrew Vaughn Out Of Sunday’s Lineup

Chicago White Sox first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn will rest on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Angels. The highly touted prospect has started the last two games, but is hitless in his first six at-bats with a walk and run scored. With the recent emergence of Yermin Mercedes at the designated hitter spot, Vaughn's easiest way […]
