NL-Only Waiver Wire Team of the Week for Week 6
Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/6/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There are only two games once again, which makes the slate somewhat difficult. There are a few players that are near must starts, but the majority aren't cheap. I'm going to focus on the best plays rather than the cheaper options. It may be a weird strategy, but I'm going with a "get the top […]
Tony Wolters Hits First Home Run of 2018
Colorado Rockies catcher Tony Wolters is definitely not getting playing time because of his offense, but he’s been particularly bad so far this year. Wolters has worked as Chris Iannetta’s regular backup, so he’s getting plenty of playing time, but his atrocious triple slash is .140/.240/.209. He finally had a bright spot on Friday as […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/5/18): NBA DFS Lineups
Both series tonight have taken a turn for the worst when it comes to DFS. Both teams are head and shoulders ahead of their competition and anything can happen tonight. It is very likely we see narratives tonight that weren't there, and unsung heroes will be the saviors. There isn't but one superstar to really […]
Rudy Gobert Scores 12 Points In Game 3
Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert had another subpar game in his club's second loss of the series against the Houston Rockets. Gobert connected on 6-for-8 from the floor en route to 12 points and he just missed out on a double-double by grabbing nine rebounds. He added a couple blocked shots and two assists to […]
Brayden Point Continues To Tear Up Bruins
Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point scored a goal in the 4-3 win over the Boston Bruins.

Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron scored twice in a losing effort in Game 4 of their second-round series. The goals mark three in his last two games and six in his last five.

Martin Maldonado Placed on Bereavement List
Los Angeles Angels catcher Martin Maldonado has been placed on the bereavement list. Juan Graterol was recalled to take his spot on the roster, with starting pitcher JC Ramirez being transferred to the 60-day disabled list to accommodate Graterol on the 40-man roster. Maldonado is hitting .213 on the year and is not a viable […]
Welington Castillo Still Day-To-Day
Chicago White Sox catcher Welington Castillo (groin) is still day-to-day after taking a foul tip to "a personal region of his body" in a game against the Royals earlier this week. According to White Sox manager Rick Renteria, he's just trying to give Castillo "a little space" after taking a foul tip to the "groin […]
Steven Stamkos Snaps Scoring Slump
Tampa Bay Lightning center Steven Stamkos scored an empty-net goal at the end of Game 3, giving him his second goal of the playoffs. It was also his first point in this series against the Bruins, which should raise concerns for anyone looking at Stamkos as a DFS option. In the first round, Stamkos registered […]
Salvador Perez Homers In KC Win
He’s only been back for 11 games, but Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez has picked up right where he left off last season. Salvy ripped his second home run of the season on Thursday, and a double helped bring his batting average up to .304 this year. Perez seems to be fully recovered from […]
Nuggets Likely to Decline Nikola Jokic's Option
Denver Nuggets forward/center Nikola Jokic's agent said that the Nuggets picking up Jokic's team option for next season would be "an unfavorable scenario for the Nuggets." Denver has a $1.6 million team option on Jokic for the 2018-2019 season. Jokic can become an unrestricted free agent in 2019 if the Nuggets accept his team option. […]

DraftDaily Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/4/18): MLB DFS Lineups
If you've never played on Draft Daily before, it is fairly similar to the other sites, but you tend to lose more points. Points are taken away for strikeouts and home runs allowed, but you also earn points for sacrifice flies. Before creating a lineup, make sure you look over the scoring system. In this […]
Joel Embiid Struggles With Jumper
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid could not get his shot going as he knocked down just eight of 22 from the floor in a five-point loss to the Boston Celtics. Embiid did finish with a solid line, notching 20 points while hauling down 14 rebounds and dishing out five assists with a steal and a […]
FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/4/18): NBA DFS Lineups
How weird has this second round been? After most were thinking that the West would be two easy sweeps for the Rockets and Warriors (even though it is still likely for Golden State), the Cavs and Celtics are up two games in their respective second round matchups. Though a lot can change, things have been […]
Al Horford Records Double-Double In Game 2
Boston Celtics power forward/center Al Horford was able to register a double-double in a win over the Philadelphia 76ers. Horford was able to connect on five of nine from the floor to finish with 13 points and was able to haul down 12 rebounds in the game. Horford was able to add five dimes and […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/4/18): MLB DFS Lineups
It is a full 15-game slate on Friday with seven games boasting an over/under of at least nine total runs. The CLE/NYY matchup leads the way with ten total projected runs and New York is the strong favorite. More on them much later (Hint: it isn’t good for Josh Tomlin). Speaking of heavy favorites, only […]
Week 6 Waiver Wire - H2H Category Streamers
I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster […]
