He hasn't been here for years, but Jorge Soler is back in our collective consciousness upon returning from an extended DL stint. He decided to let everyone know with a homer in his first at-bat.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (8/10/16): MLB DFS Advice
Afternoon baseball is on the ticket for Wednesday, with three games starting before the traditional evening slate.

Week 19 Waiver Wire Pickups: Outfield
With just two months left in the season, the time for action has come. If you are a fringe competitor in your league, there's no time left for stashing, for investments in potential or hoping for things to get better. It's time to drop that slumping star and pick up some real performers on the […]
FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (8/9/16): MLB DFS Advice
Fifteen games scheduled, per usual, but we've got a matinee of sorts at Coors Field.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (8/9/16): MLB DFS Advice
The Indians made a lot of noise at the trade deadline, and a few people have said that they are the favorites to win the World Series now. Detroit seems to think otherwise, though, as they are 8-2 in their last 10 games and only 2.0 games behind Cleveland right now. In this article, I […]
Mid-Season Dynasty Prospect Rankings: All Outfielders
Since I split up the two leagues, I thought that it would work out well to merge the two and briefly discuss the top-20 overall so dynasty owners know where everyone fits in. The descriptions for each player are not going to be particularly long and if you want a full scouting report, you can […]
MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 19)
Talk about some serious promotions lately. Andrew Benintendi! Orlando Arcia! And that is just naming two of them. Unfortunately, it is unlikely we shall see another week like that again. At least, not until September. There aren't any real clear promotions on the horizon except for a few names. With that said, it is still important […]
The Cut List (Week 19): Players To Consider Cutting Bait On
There has been a lot of upheaval going on lately in terms of players losing playing time and entering slumps. Every point and win matters, and there's no point in hanging on to dead weight anymore. If you have someone who is really becoming a waste of roster space, it's time to get rid of […]

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 18)
Wow what a bunch of big time promotions. Alex Bregman, David Dahl, Tyler Glasnow (and then to the DL). Talk about some star power! But the big headlines obviously are going to circle around the Indians who acquired ace reliever Andrew Miller, but failed to complete a deal for Jonathan Lucroy after he used his no-trade […]

Poetry in Motion: The Maturity of Jon Gray
Jon Gray isn't a rookie. OK, that's a lie because technically he is, but you know what I mean. The man (he's almost 25 years old for crying out loud) is pitching like a seasoned veteran and yet I keep seeing him mentioned as a streaming option or waiver option. It's a travesty that we […]

Deeper Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 17 (National League)
The trade deadline is nearly upon us and many names are bound to switch leagues. Taking that into consideration, here are some names that are not expected to become irrelevant in NL-only formats the following week. Of course, I say that and half of them will probably wind up on the Red Sox by Sunday afternoon. […]
FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/27/16): MLB DFS Advice
The pricing on FanDuel seems to be a bit questionable. Guys are extremely cheap, and it's fairly easy to construct a great lineup. With that being said, that also means it's easier for other fantasy players to construct dominant lineups, as well, so you'll have to be on top of your game to win. This […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/26/16): MLB DFS Advice
A 15 game slate in which every game takes place under the lights is a thing of DFS beauty. There are actually 16 games today, thanks to the Mets-Nationals doubleheader, but the early game isn't relevant to daily fantasy. (A bit of a shame, seeing as the pitching matchup - Carlos Martinez versus Noah Syndegaard […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/26/16): MLB DFS Advice
There is a slate tonight that has some of the most surprising pitchers in the MLB this season.

MLB Ready Prospects: Top 30 Fantasy Rankings for Impact Rookies (Week 17)
Talk about some serious prospects reaching the majors. In one week, Tyler Glasnow, Lucas Giolito and Alex Bregman (finally) were all promoted to the big leagues. Of course, Glasnow made one start and promptly found himself on the 15-day DL, but still it is incredible to see so many top guys promoted. Everyone knew Bregman […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/24/16): MLB DFS Advice
FanDuel has contests that avoid the Colorado Rockies and Atlanta Braves game at 4:00 PM EST, but that is so pointless. There is a ton of great value in that game, and it would be unwise to avoid it. Strategy changes a bit, but play the "all day" contests. In this article, I will be […]
