Free MLB Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (7/14/23)

Welcome back, RotoBallers! The MLB's All-Star Break was only 4 days in length, but without much else in the sports world to turn our attention to, it felt like a month! The Home Run Derby and All-Star Game provided some excitement, which helped, but now we can officially get back to our daily routine of […]

Cleveland Guardians Fantasy Baseball Outlook - Are Guardians Hitters Due for a Big Second Half?

It's safe to say that the Cleveland Guardians offense was not touted as one of the highest-scoring groups in the league heading into the 2023 fantasy baseball season. But with superstar Jose Ramirez leading the way, and high-upside contributors like Andres Gimenez, Steven Kwan, Josh Bell, Josh Naylor, and Amed Rosario I don't think anyone […]

MJ Daffue Rides Hot Putter To Scotland

MJ Daffue has now placed T38 or better in three-straight PGA Tour events leading up to this week's Genesis Scottish Open. The key? An unconscious putting game. The 34-year-old has gained a combined 12.6 strokes putting over the last three outings, and he's been able to drive the ball well too, gaining 9.6 strokes off-the-tee […]

Yannik Paul A Low Upside Cut-Maker?

One $7,100 name on DraftKings that will be low-owned at the Genesis Scottish Open this week is 29-year-old Yannik Paul. While he's yet to rack up wins on the European Tour, the Germany native has quietly shown a consistent ability to make cuts thanks to his above-average off-the-tee game. Paul has made four of five […]

Is Alex Noren Rounding Into Form?

It's no secret that a strong Alex Noren week is typically fueled by a dialed-in approach game and a red-hot putter. The Sweden native has had more ups than downs so far in 2023, but a strong top-10 finish at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last time out showed glimpses of Noren's upside. If we pair […]

A Thorbjorn Olesen T30 Repeat Seems Unlikely

Denmark native Thorbjorn Olesen has lacked consistency both on the European Tour and in American events over the past couple of years, but he will look to back up a T30 finish in the 2022 Genesis Scottish Open when he revisits Scotland this week. The 33-year old started off the year hot on the DP […]

Can Adrian Meronk Hang With The Big Dogs?

Adrian Meronk has become very popular amongst the DP World Tour landscape, but his impressive tee-to-green skillset hasn't quite translated to any PGA Tour or Major events yet. The 30-year-old will look to change that this week with his second career showing in the Genesis Scottish Open after missing the cut in 2022. Meronk has […]

Robert MacIntyre Looks To Make Weekend In Homecoming

Coming off a fourth-place finish on the DP World Tour last week, Scotland native Robert MacIntyre will look to carry over his strong form to this week's Genesis Scottish Open. The 26-year-old missed the cut in his debut last season, but he made a splash the following week with a T34 finish at The Open. […]

Happy Sunday, RotoBallers! We've reached the final day of baseball before the MLB All-Star break starts on Monday. As such, we could see some veterans get an extra day of rest, some bullpens get pushed to their brink with a handful of days off to follow, and typically some wild results on a day like […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After appearing in 125 games for the Minnesota Twins in 2022, Jose Miranda was surprisingly designated for assignment in early May in favor of former first overall pick Royce Lewis at third base.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With the unfortunate news of Mike Trout's hamate bone injury, 24-year-old outfielder Jo Adell was recalled to join the Los Angeles Angels on the Fourth of July. In two appearances so far, Adell is 2-for-5 with a double, triple, and two strikeouts. […]

Sam Ryder Looks To Keep Weekend Streak Alive At John Deere Classic

Sam Ryder will tee it up at the John Deere Classic for the fifth time in his career this weekend, and so far he's 4-for-4 in made cuts in his career, including a second-place finish in his 2018 debut. The Florida native's upside is obvious when his game is on, evidenced by two top-five finishes […]

Nick Hardy Looks To Bounce Back At TPC Deere Run

After two top-40 finishes leading up to the Rocket Mortgage Classic, Nick Hardy struggled to gain strokes in any category but off-the-tee en route to a missed weekend in Detroit. The struggles were a surprise, as Hardy had been trending upwards in his putting and approach games. Perhaps it was just a blip on the […]

Will Kevin Roy's String Of Missed Cuts Continue?

Kevin Roy has now missed three cuts in a row and five of his last seven after missing the weekend in Detroit. Heading to the John Deere Classic in Illinois, it's tough to see any positive signs for the 33-year-old New York native. Roy is struggling in all areas of late, but he's especially lacking […]

MJ Daffue Trending Positively For John Deere Debut

MJ Daffue has found a groove with his driver and putter over the past two events, gaining over three strokes off-the-tee and putting in both the Rocket Mortgage Classic and the RBC Canadian Open. The South African has continued to struggle with his irons and wedges, but perhaps improvement is on the way in that […]

Will Gordon Brings Poor Putting To TPC Deere Run

Will Gordon has lost strokes putting in five straight events leading up to this week's John Deere Classic in Illinois. While the 26-year-old consistently gains strokes off the tee, and his iron game shows up in spurts, the lack of putting and around-the-green game has held him back on the PGA Tour. After losing his […]

Welcome in, RotoBallers! I hope everyone had a relaxing and safe 4th of July. I managed to avoid the urge to wait in line at Sheetz for 30 minutes of my day for a $12 discount on gasoline (maybe that was just a North Carolina thing? Apologies if so...), and in exchange I spent a […]

When Will Carlos Rodon Return From Injury? Fantasy Baseball Injury Update

The New York Yankees signed 30-year-old southpaw Carlos Rodon in December on a whopping six-year, $162-million contract. Forearm troubles in Spring Training paired with some chronic back issues have kept the two-time All Star on the Injured List for the beginning of 2023, but his return appears to be drawing near. Let's take a deeper […]

Teoscar Hernandez Leaking Oil In Age-30 Season

While the overall numbers are still usable for fantasy baseball managers, there are plenty of warning signs that Seattle Mariners outfielder Teoscar Hernandez is slowly declining at the plate as he sits halfway through his age-30 season. Hernandez has appeared in 79 games thus far, so assuming good health, all counting stats can be easily […]

Can Thairo Estrada Continue His Power And Speed Gains?

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada has shown massive improvements thus far in the power and speed categories compared to where fantasy managers ranked him in the preseason. Compared to his 14 home runs and 21 steals in 140 games in 2022, the 27-year old is currently sitting at nine homers and 18 steals […]

Kyle Schwarber Producing Despite Lowly Batting Average

Kyle Schwarber remains in left field and atop the Philadelphia Phillies batting order despite his lowly .186 batting average heading into Friday night's series opener at home against the Washington Nationals. The 30-year-old finished the 2022 season with a .218 batting average and a .323 on-base percentage to go with his career-high 46 homers. Schwarber […]

Happy Friday RotoBallers! My name is Tommy Bell, and I'm thrilled to be back helping out in the MLB Betting world here at RotoBaller.

Who Is The White Sox Closer? - Fantasy Baseball Saves Outlook

Ah yes, one of fantasy baseball managers' most beloved past times: Who can I trust to earn saves for the *Insert Team Here*? This predictive task is ever-evolving, night after night, and sometimes reading the minds of Major League managers can be more difficult than earning a college credit. So, while we can't guarantee we […]

Is Matt McLain a Legitimate Five-Tool Phenom?

While Elly De La Cruz has deservedly garnered everyone's attention with his prodigious power and blazing speed, the Cincinnati Reds may have quietly unleashed another five-category stud into the fantasy baseball pool. No, we're not talking about the 29-year-old Kevin Newman. In case you're late to the party, meet 23-year-old middle infielder Matt McLain! The […]

Free MLB Player Props - Today's Prop Betting Picks for Hitters and Pitchers (6/28/23)

Tommy Bell here, back in another pinch-hitting role after my return from hiatus on Monday. Admittedly, it was a less-than-ideal showing. Colin Rea pitched the game of his life against what looked to be a lifeless Mets offense (sometimes I wonder if being a Mets fan would be WORSE than being a Pirates fan... Too […]

Nick Hardy Brings Hot Putter To Detroit

It's well known that a hot putter is necessary to win most weeks on the PGA Tour. While predicting who will gain six or more strokes on the greens this week in Detroit is near impossible, it's at least worth noting that Nick Hardy's putter is in great form. The 27-year-old Illinois native has gained […]

Kevin Roy Makes Rocket Mortgage Classic Debut

Kevin Roy will tee it up at Detroit Golf Club for the Rocket Mortgage Classic for the first time in his young career on the PGA Tour. The Syracuse, NY, native earned his tour card by finishing in the top 25 on the Korn Ferry Tour as a 32-year-old. So far this season, he's only […]

Signs Point To "No" For David Lipsky In Detroit

Two consecutive top-16 finishes at the Charles Schwab and the Memorial Tournament about a month ago brought some attention to David Lipsky's form. But it's been downhill since then. The 34-year-old missed the cut at the RBC Canadian Open, losing over five strokes putting. He then lost three strokes tee-to-green en route to a 56th-place […]

Justin Lower Looks To Make The Weekend

If you're a daily fantasy manager looking for a low-budget option at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, Justin Lower may be your guy. Lower missed the cut at the Travelers Championship last week, but he gained over four strokes on approach for the second time in his last five outings. Losing 4.7 strokes putting certainly did […]
