FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/20/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice
Only seven of the 11 MLB games today find their way to the FanDuel main slate.

In reality, they should have left it at ten. […]

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried looked like an ace on the mound during Sunday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

Jorge Soler Sitting Sunday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Jorge Soler is taking a seat on the bench for Sunday's matchup against the San Francisco Giants, according to MLB.com. Soler is slashing .219/.312/.419 with 23 HRs, 59 RBI, and 64 runs over 136 games. Since being traded to the Braves, though, he's been a great fantasy asset, batting .272 with 10 […]
