DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/15/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups
It's all-day baseball time! No more of this split-slate nonsense. All four series have a game today and they are all staggered, so you have something to watch during commercials in college football games. Atlanta and Philly are the early birds again. Houston goes for the sweep in Seattle a couple of hours later. The […]
DJ LeMahieu Traveling To Cleveland
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (toe) will travel with the team to Cleveland for the American League Division Series this weekend with the hopes of being activated if the team advances to the AL Championship Series next week. The Yankees say that he's dealing with a ligament injury to his right second toe, not […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/14/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups
It's all-day baseball time! No more of this split-slate nonsense. Mother Nature gave us a matinee today with the rainout in the Bronx last night, so the Yankees and Guardians will give the NL some added company on our Friday. Atlanta gets going in Philly in the afternoon and the Padres host the Dodgers out […]
Rockies Part Ways With Hitting Coach Dave Magadan
The Colorado Rockies and hitting coach Dave Magadan have mutually agreed to part ways following the 2022 season. Third base coach/infield coach Stu Cole has also been reassigned to a minor league staff position. The moves come after the Rockies finished 68-94 and in last place in the National League West. The 60-year-old Magadan had […]
Guardians-Yankees Game 2 Postponed
Game 2 of the American League Division Series on Thursday between the Cleveland Guardians and New York Yankees in the Bronx has been postponed due to inclement weather.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/13/22): MLB DFS Lineups
Happy Thursday RotoBallers! This is John Brubaker dropping some of my favorite plays for today's slate. It's ALDS time, and we have just a two-game slate on the board for today. It's been a while since I've shared my MLB DFS articles with you, as there were no Thursday games last week, but I'm happy […]
Josh Bell Starting On The Bench Again In Game 2
San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Josh Bell is on the bench again for Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers and left-handed starter Clayton Kershaw. The left-handed-hitting Bell will likely start on the bench again in this series once left-hander Tyler Anderson makes his start […]
Matt Olson Hitting Third In Game 2
Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson is starting at first base and is hitting third in Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Phillies and right-hander Zack Wheeler. Olson went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run as the Braves fell short 7-6 in the Game 1 loss on Tuesday. […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/12/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups
Welcome back to another edition of the FREE DraftKings and FanDuel MLB DFS picks. We're now in the thick of the Divisional Series in each circuit, and Wednesday features a two-game NLDS slate.

Anthony Rizzo Hits Two-Run Homer Tuesday
New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo continued to hit for power in Tuesday's American League Division Series Game 1 4-1 win over the Guardians, going 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a strikeout. Rizzo provided some insurance runs in the sixth inning, crushing a Cal Quantrill offering into the second deck of the […]
Matt Olson Plates Three In NLDS Game 1 Loss Tuesday
Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson did his part offensively in Tuesday's National League Division Series Game 1 7-6 loss to the Phillies. Olson went 2-for-3 with a single, a ninth-inning three-run home run, and two walks. Unfortunately, his late pop wasn't enough for the Braves to claw their way back. The 28-year-old should continue […]
Josh Bell Sitting In Game 1 Against Lefty
San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Josh Bell is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 of the National League Division Series on Tuesday against Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Julio Urias. Bell showed signs of life at the plate for the Padres in the Wild-Card Series win over the New York Mets by going […]
DJ LeMahieu Not On ALDS Roster
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (toe) has been left off the roster for the American League Division Series against the Cleveland Guardians this week. LeMahieu returned from the injured list from a right toe injury at the tail end of the regular season, but apparently he's still not fully recovered from the injury. Instead, […]
Matt Carpenter Makes ALDS Roster
New York Yankees infielder Matt Carpenter (foot) is on the team's roster for the American League Division Series this week against the Cleveland Guardians. Carpenter hasn't played for the Yankees since fracturing his left foot on Aug. 8, but he'll give the team a strong left-handed power bat for their first postseason series. It's unlikely […]

Giants Hire Pete Putila As General Manager Monday
The San Francisco Giants hired Houston Astros assistant general manager Pete Putila as the team's new general manager, president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi announced Monday. Putlia will replace Scott Harris, who held the position from 2019 through 2022. Zaidi praised Putila's strong experience in player development and evaluation, as the Giants currently have one […]
Billy Eppler's, Buck Showalter's Jobs Are Safe
New York Mets general manager Billy Eppler's and manager Buck Showalter's jobs are safe, according to a high-ranking team source. The Mets may still look to hire a president of baseball operations, but that's considered a long-term initiative that doesn't necessarily need to be implemented this offseason. The Mets blew a 10 1/2-game lead in […]
Phillies Sign Manager Rob Thomson To Two-Year Deal
The Philadelphia Phillies signed manager Rob Thomson to a two-year contract for the 2023 and 2024 seasons on Monday, according to president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski. Thompson is well-deserving after leading the Phillies to a Wild-Card Series win over the St. Louis Cardinals last weekend, the club's first playoff series win since 2010. The […]
Daniel Vogelbach Starting At Designated Hitter
New York Mets first baseman Daniel Vogelbach will join the starting lineup for Sunday's Game 3 against the San Diego Padres. The 29-year-old sat out Game 2, but is in the lineup for this elimination contest. He'll serve as the designated hitter and bat seventh versus right-hander Joe Musgrove. The Mets will opt for some […]
Wil Myers Joins The Lineup
San Diego Padres first baseman Wil Myers is in the starting lineup for Sunday's Game 3 against the New York Mets. The 31-year-old was out of the lineup for Game 2, but gets the nod in this elimination contest. He'll cover first base and bat sixth versus right-hander Chris Bassitt on Sunday. Myers is slashing […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/9/22): MLB DFS Lineups
And then there were two. Two left playing anyway. The Mets and Padres are the only teams that went all three games in the new Wild Card Round. For showdown mode on DraftKings, we pick one captain who costs 1.5x his normal salary, but he also scores 1.5x the points. We must have at least […]
Brandon Drury In Padres Lineup Saturday
San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Brandon Drury will slide into the lineup Saturday in game two of their series against the New York Mets. Drury will be the designated hitter and bat sixth against Jacob deGrom. The 30-year-old sat out last night's game as Wil Myers got the start, but manager Bob Melvin likes […]

It's all-day baseball time! No more of this split-slate nonsense.

Let's parlay that with some DFS wins, shall we? We […]
Josh Bell Hitting Cleanup For Padres In Game 1
San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Josh Bell is in the lineup for Game 1 of their series against the New York Mets. He is the designated hitter and will bat cleanup for the Friars. Bell had been sitting quite a bit down the stretch and dropped down the order when he did play, but […]
Wil Myers In Padres Lineup For Game 1, Brandon Drury Sitting
San Diego Padres outfielder/first baseman Wil Myers is in the starting lineup for Game 1 of their series against the New York Mets and Max Scherzer, playing first base and hitting sixth for the Friars. Myers starting means that trade-deadline acquisition Brandon Drury is on the bench for Game 1. Drury had been playing regularly […]
Josh Naylor Starting Against Lefty In Game 1
Cleveland Guardians first baseman Josh Naylor is starting at first base and is hitting fifth in the batting order for Game 1 of the American League Wild-Card Series against the Tampa Bay Rays and left-hander Shane McClanahan on Friday. It's an interesting choice for the first game of a three-game series, as Naylor hit just […]
