DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/31/21): MLB DFS Lineups
It's a fairly reasonable DraftKings Saturday in MLB. The Jays pissed off DraftKings by starting an hour earlier than the rest of the 4pm Eastern games, so they go into their own showdown. The five game early slate looks solid, but I'm here to take you through the nine-game main prime time slate on DraftKings. […]
