Stephen Vogt Will Begin Rehab Stint on Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Stephen Vogt (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Biloxi on Wednesday. Vogt will begin catching games on Wednesday and that is a big step forward in his rehab process. He'll likely need 20-25 at-bats to get his timing down, but he could be back with the Brewers very soon. Vogt […]

Al Horford's Second-Round DFS Preview
Boston Celtics center Al Horford will have a tough matchup in Joel Embiid, as the Celtics will want to continue their playoff run despite missing key players for the season. What the Celtics have done this season is amazing considering the circumstances, and they have Horford to thank for it. The All-Star has been the […]
Joel Embiid's Second-Round DFS Preview
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will want to continue his strong play against the Boston Celtics. Coming up against All-Star Al Horford will be a challenge for him in this series, but he has been playing well against the Celtics this season nonetheless. Averaging 17.3 points, 13.3 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game versus the […]
Robinson Chirinos K's Three Times in Loss
Starting catcher Robinson Chirinos had a forgettable day, striking out three times in three at-bats against the Blue Jays. The outing brought his season line to .178/.274/.452 with just 5 home runs and a staggering 32 strikeouts against just 73 at-bats. Coming into the season, fantasy owners expected the veteran to swing-and-miss, but the lack […]
Ryan Johansen Buries Pair of Goals In Game 2 Win
Nashville Predators center Ryan Johansen found the back of the net twice in a critical Game 2 win against the Jets on Sunday. Since getting traded to Nashville during the 2015-2016 season, Johansen has transformed from a high volume goal-scorer into a more of a pass-first, set-up guy. However, the Vancouver native reminded us all […]

Considering Monday is a frequent day off in MLB, we have a pretty full 10 game main slate on FanDuel. Nearly all the pitchers on the slate have accessible prices, which should allow for plenty of big bats in your lineup.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (4/30/18): MLB DFS Lineups
For Monday, we’re working with a 10-game slate, beginning at 7:05pm, on DraftKings. This means one game is not included on the ticket: TEX/CLE (6:10pm). No Trevor Bauer for us. No worries. That’s why we’re here to help. I was surprised to see COL/CHC on the docket. The schedules I’ve seen mention a 7:00pm start […]
Week 5 Waiver Wire Watch List
With a month in the books for 2018 we're starting to get some more clarity. We know that Didi Gregorius is the new Aaron Judge, Gerrit Cole is the most untouchable pitcher in the world and everyone on the Oakland A's can mash. Ok, so we aren't really any further ahead than we thought. Even […]
Kevin Love Does Well From Deep In Sunday's Win
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Kevin Love once again missed most of his shots Sunday night in Game 7 against Indiana, but he did do some good work from downtown, shooting 4-for-8. He finished with 14 points and six rebounds, shooting 5-for-13 overall. It was a really bizarre series from Love, as he nailed 40 percent of […]
Tristan Thompson Posts Double-Double In Game 7
Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson performed very well in a surprising starting role on Sunday against the Pacers, posting a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds. He also had one big block near the end of the game and picked up one steal as well, while missing only once from the field. Thompson had […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/30/18): NBA DFS Lineups
We are going to do things a bit differently with only one game tonight. DraftKings offers a one game Showdown where you roster six utility players whose total salary you need to keep below $50,000. Although it's only one-game, there is value out there and I am going to offer up the cheapest prices that […]
Clint Capela Posts Double-Double In Game 1
Houston Rockets center Clint Capela outplayed Rudy Gobert by racking up a double-double in the win over the Utah Jazz. Capela was excellent knocking down seven of 13 shots en route to 16 points, while hauling down 12 rebounds. Capela was very active in this one and had an unbelievable, statment left-handed flush on Gobert […]
Derrick Favors Very Quiet In Loss
Utah Jazz power forward/center was only able to notch five points in his squad's Game 1 loss to the Houston Rockets. Favors attempted just five shots on the night and was only able to snag two rebounds, but was able to add two steals with two blocks. Favors is a matchup weakness for his club […]
Rudy Gobert Quiet In Season Opener
Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert attempted just four shots in his club's Game 1 loss to the Houston Rockets. Gobert was able to connect on all four of his attempts from the floor to finish with 11 points and was able to haul down nine boards on the night. His stat line looks better then […]
David Krejci Dealing With Minor Injury; Misses Practice Sunday
Boston Bruins center David Krejci did not take part in practice Sunday due to a minor injury. Coach Bruce Cassidy still expects Krejci will be good to go for Game 2, however. Cassidy’s confidence in Krejci’s ability to return without missing game action will be a relief for owners looking to start him in DFS. […]
Brayden Point Misses Practice, Should Play in Game 2
Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point was held out of practice on Sunday for a "body-maintenance day" per coach Jon Cooper. Point was on the receiving end of a hard cross-check from Bruins forward Brad Marchand, but did not miss anytime and likely will not miss anything more than Sunday's practice. Despite registering an assist […]
Sharks Win Game 2 In Double Overtime
On Saturday night, the San Jose Sharks beat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-3 in double overtime. William Karlsson came out hot for the Golden Knights, putting two past Martin Jones for the first two goals of the game. Their lead didn't last long, though, as Brent Burns and Logan Couture combined to light the lamp […]

Vegas Golden Knights center William Karlsson was carrying his magic stick again on Saturday night, as he scored twice on just three shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to San Jose. His goals made it 2-0 Vegas, but they simply couldn't hang on to the victory, as Brent Burns carried the Sharks back into the […]
Logan Couture Scores Twice In Game 2 Win
San Jose Sharks center Logan Couture scored half of the team's goals, including the game-winner in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win against Vegas. He made it 2-2 in the middle of the second frame and potted a power-play goal later on with 5:13 played in the second overtime. Couture ended a brief two-game point drought with […]

Derrick Favors Second Round DFS Preview
Utah Jazz power forward/center Derrick Favors value takes a dip in his club's upcoming series against the Houston Rockets. Favors was extremely valuable in the first round, but against a faster paced, smaller lineup in the Houston Rockets, Favors' minutes will indeed take a hit. In the three regular season games Favors suited up in […]
