FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/30/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Sunday baseball looks to be a fun one with a more extensive slate. Thirteen games in total will give us more than enough stack options and matchups to exploit. My advice, find an arm you're comfortable with, throw in as many big producing bats as you can, and then squeeze in the last couple spots […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/30/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

There's nothing like spending your Sunday afternoon lounging on the couch and watching your DFS stack of hitters mash. Today we're going to help that become a reality for you. Today on DraftKings, we have ten games on the main slate, but unfortunately there's no Padres/Rockies, so we won't be able to create a Coors […]

Nathan Eovaldi Lands On IL With Calf Strain

Boston Red Sox right-handed pitcher Nathan Eovaldi has been placed on the 10-day injured list prior to Saturday’s contest against the Nationals due to a “very mild strain” of his right calf. The move opens another spot in the Boston rotation to be filled during a season in which the team has scuffled to find […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/29/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

With all of the topsy-turvy scheduling, re-scheduling, double-headers, and postponements going on, it seems odd that we have just a modest seven games in store on the DraftKings main slate tonight. We work with what we have, right? The few attractive pitching options on the slate are in either in tough spots or are overly […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/29/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Get ready for another Saturday of MLB action, with six games on the main slate. It's a good day to go cheap on pitching to try to fit in a Coors stack. If you're not comfortable taking this risk, then you should pay up for Dylan Bundy. In this article, we'll identify players who will […]

Rafael Devers Sees Key Metrics Take Dive In 2020

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers has not gotten off to the same level of success in 2020 as he had during his breakout 2019 campaign. When parsing Statcast metrics, it’s easy to see why -- after mauling fastballs last season to the tune of a .306 BA and .544 SLG, those numbers have […]

From to Farm to Roster: Potential Call-Ups for Week 6

Oh, boy, these call-ups are coming in bunches.

With more teams vying for the expanded playoff spots, call-ups seem to […]

Welcome to RotoBaller's weekly article of two-start pitcher streamers for 2020! Successfully streaming pitchers can literally be a game-changer when it comes to fantasy baseball.

The Baller Ranks: Top 200 Hitters Weekly Rankings (Week 6)

The Baller Ranks have a new player at number two, and his name is not Tatis, Yellich, or Acuna.

With that hint, can you guess which superstar has more remaining games than any other player […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/27/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

We head into Thursday night with a 6 game slate on tap.  The slate starts slightly earlier at 6:37 pmEST and will now not include the SF/LAD game, so be careful.

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/27/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

One man stands above the rest entering play Thursday: Nationals ace Max Scherzer. His performance will likely largely determine how the slate plays out, for better or worse. As the only true high-priced elite arm, Scherzer’s exposure is likely to be sky high, so owners will need to decide if they want to stay chalk […]

J.D. Martinez Still Lacking In Power Numbers

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez has yet to produce the type of power numbers we've grown accustomed to in recent years. Through 29 games this year, Martinez is slashing .219/.308/.390 with three home runs and 15 RBI. He posted an OPS north of 1.000 in three of the past four years, but this year his […]

MLB Betting Picks (8/26/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

We had the expected fireworks in the Boston/Toronto game. Meanwhile Cincinnati got out to an early lead, but they blew it just as quickly and couldn't score again. Luis Castillo pitched pretty well, but he couldn't get the run support needed, so he drops to 0-4. One of those days where it was essentially one-pitch-away […]

Chris Mazza To Start Thursday Against Blue Jays

Boston Red Sox pitcher Chris Mazza is scheduled to start Thursday's game against the Blue Jays in the series finale. Starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (calf) had his scheduled start in the series against the Blue Jays pushed back to Saturday against the Nationals. Mazza has posted a 6.35 ERA, 2.11 WHIP, nine hits allowed, four […]

Matt Barnes Records Second Save

The 30-year-old has shifted into the late-inning/closer […]

We left last week off on a great note hitting two overs for the best day that I had in over a week. Things have been pretty rocky thus far but I'm starting to get more comfortable, and hopefully my records begin to reflect that. We're entering the halfway point of the season for some […]

H2H Points League Pickups, Waiver Adds: Week 6

Another week, another two teams sniped off of the schedule. By now, no one needs to be told how imperative is grab value off of the waiver wire. We're nearly halfway through the short season and while it's still a very small sample, we can at least start to separate the wheat from the chaff. […]
