Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox - Yesterday's Recap

Welcome to the Saturday, August 31st edition of Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox. Discussing baseball is as fun as the game itself. It has a way of bringing people together to share different opinions about the sport we all love. A similar action can be done with fantasy baseball where we not only discuss […]

Ketel Marte is Out on Friday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Ketel Marte (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Marte suffered a hamstring cramp on Tuesday, but was able to return to action on Thursday. He reportedly is feeling something in his hamstring again, so he'll sit out on Friday. Jarrod Dyson will bat […]

Luke Weaver To Throw Bullpen Friday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Luke Weaver (elbow) will throw all of his pitches in an aggressive bullpen session on Friday. It's good progress for Weaver, but fantasy owners at this point have already moved on. Even if the 26-year-old right-hander makes it back in September, he'd likely only make one or two starts. He's been […]

Wilmer Flores Continues Hot Streak

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Wilmer Flores continued what has been a red-hot streak as of late on Thursday night, as he went 3-for-5 at the plate with two doubles, three RBI and two runs scored against the Dodgers. Despite splitting time as a starter and a replacement off the bench, Flores is hitting .563 over […]

Eduardo Escobar Hits 30th Homer on Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eduardo Escobar hit a three-run home run in the sixth inning of the Diamondbacks' win over the Dodgers on Thursday to give him 30 for the season. He finished 2-for-5 with three RBI and two runs scored to continue what has been a career-year for Escobar. With 30 home runs and […]

Josh Rojas Sits Out on Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Josh Rojas (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Rojas has been in an awful slump lately, so it's not surprising to see him getting the night off. Tim Locastro will bat second and play left field versus lefty Hyun-Jin Ryu. Locastro has been […]

MLB DFS Prop Picks for 8/29/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

As the baseball season winds down it may be a little more difficult for starting pitchers to keep delivering the strikeouts. Some of the most effective pitchers in the game this season have not necessarily been overpowering and, with some recent down ticks in strikeout numbers, the under might be the way to play. Zack […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/29/19): MLB DFS Lineups

Mike Leake Dominates on Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Mike Leake earned a win on Tuesday over the San Francisco Giants. Leake went 7 1/3 innings, allowing just two runs on four hits to go along with two strikeouts. He succeeded with 11 ground ball outs despite the low strikeout total. At this point of the season, Leake isn't someone to […]

Power Hitting Risers & Fallers for Week 22 - Buy or Sell?

Today's magic numbers: 5/14. Each riser has exactly five home runs in the past two weeks (August 13-26). The names are a little more interesting on the whole than the ones with six or seven (and have been less explored around here). As for falling power outputs, four of today's five have been risers in […]

Ketel Marte Injures Himself On Home Run

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Ketel Marte (leg) injured himself after a game-tying home run against the Giants on Tuesday and had to be removed from the game. Marte had the solo homer and a single in his three plate appearances before he was forced from the contest. The impressive D-back is hitting .323/.385/.578 with 28 homers, […]

David Peralta To Have Season-Ending Surgery

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said that outfielder David Peralta (shoulder) will undergo season-ending surgery on his right shoulder. While Peralta certainly didn't live up to expectations after batting .293 and clubbing a career-high 30 homers in 2018, he was still relevant in the majority of fantasy leagues this year with his .275/.343/.461 slash line […]

Mike Leake Could Break Out of Slump Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Mike Leake will look to string together a quality start on Tuesday on the road against the San Francisco Giants. Leake has been a disaster with the D-backs thus far, going 0-2 with an 8.02 ERA in four starts. However, things could not be more favorable for the righty on Tuesday, as […]

Eduardo Escobar Stays Hot Monday

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eduardo Escobar added to his impressive RBI total on Monday with a 2-for-5 performance. Escobar singled twice and drove in two runs, giving him an impressive 103 RBI on the year, good for fourth in the National League. As long as the veteran infielder continues to see consistent at-bats in the […]

Alex Young Earns Sixth Win Monday

Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Alex Young stifled the San Francisco Giants on Monday to improve to 6-3 on the season. Young tossed 5 1/3 innings, allowing just one earned run on four hits to go along with four strikeouts. The southpaw has given the D-backs a solid back-end arm in the rotation and can be relied […]
