Alex Bregman Gives Astros 1-0 Lead With Fourth Inning Solo Shot
Gerrit Cole and Blake Snell were dueling in a scoreless bout before Alex Bregman took Snell deep in the fourth. Diego Casilla relieved Snell, and pitched a clean inning and a third before handing it over to Ryan Yarbrough. This one run may be enough if Gerrit Cole keeps the ball rolling, as he’s currently […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/5/19): MLB DFS Lineups
Another two-game slate for us today, with the NL having their first mid-series break. That leaves us with the four AL teams to choose from, as the Houston Astros host the Tampa Bay Rays and the New York Yankees host the Minnesota Twins.

Anthony Rendon Reaches Base Three Times and Drives in a Run
Rendon showed us why he’s one of the best hitters in the league, belting a double against Clayton Kershaw to give the Nats a 3-0 lead in the second inning. He walked in the first inning as well, allowing the Nats to stretch out the inning and score a run on the Howie Kendrick single. […]
Alex Bregman With an All-Around Performance in Game One Victory
It was more of the same from Alex Bregman, showing us why he pressured Mike Trout for the AL MVP. He walked twice, went 1-for-2 with a double, and stole a base. He was an integral part of twos scoring innings and didn’t have a single wasted at-bat. He’s a handful for any team and […]

Atlanta Braves third baseman Josh Donaldson will play an integral role if the Braves hope to go deep in the playoffs.
