Fantasy Baseball Trade Targets - Buy/Sell For Week 7

Making the right trades can be crucial to championship success in fantasy baseball, almost as much as the draft, if not more.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/28/22): MLB DFS Lineups

Jeffrey Springs did his thing! The Rays couldn't get him a win, but he pitched six strong innings and gave up just two runs (both on solo home runs). I was heavily invested in his success in DFS and the prop market, so I was happy to see that, and I featured him in yesterday's […]

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto is getting the day off on Friday against the San Francisco Giants and left-handed starter Carlos Rodon.

Here we […]

Max Muncy Could Land On Injured List

Los Angeles Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts said the team is considering placing infielder Max Muncy (elbow) on the injured list. Roberts said Muncy's elbow "just hasn't been right," and he aggravated it on a couple defensive plays recently. The 31-year-old suffered a partially torn UCL down the stretch last year and underwent offseason surgery. Muncy's […]

He's currently slashing .402/.462/.768 across the month with six home runs, 12 doubles, 23 RBI and 14 runs.

Christian Walker Goes Hitless Tuesday Night

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Christian Walker has recorded only two hits in the last seven games. On the positive side, those two hits were both home runs. Despite his .195 batting average, his .746 OPS suggests that he’s still productive power-wise. There are only four players who have hit more home runs than him in […]

Alec Bohm Extends Hitting Streak To Four Games

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm hit a double and scored two runs in Tuesday’s loss against Atlanta Braves. He has safely recorded a hit 20 times in 24 games in May. Although he doesn’t possess massive power, his solid batting average should keep him on fantasy rosters. Considering it’s only his third season in […]

Ji-Man Choi Goes Deep Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Ji-Man Choi collected a pair of hits Tuesday, including a two-run home run during the 4-0 win over the Miami Marlins.

Eduardo Escobar Drawing Plenty Of Walks Early

New York Mets third baseman Eduardo Escobar is hitting .209 with a .310 on-base percentage and a pair of home runs in 171 plate appearances this season. It's been an unideal start production-wise for Escobar in his first campaign with the Mets, but the veteran is at least drawing plenty of walks, helping boost his […]
