DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (6/10/21): MLB DFS Lineups
We have a 6-game main slate on tap tonight, and it should be a fun one. There is only one pitcher over $10K (Scherzer) and not too many lock-down pitching options in general. When it comes to the bats, the Yankees will be the mega-chalk after their performance Wednesday night and the fact they will […]

Hey there, RotoBallers! We have made it to Week 11, and when I look across the MLB Gambling Twitter landscape, I'm relieved to see that I'm not the only one who is waiting for the curtain to fall on whatever satirical act is going on for the first 2+ months of this MLB season. It […]

Adalberto Mondesi Spotted Taking Batting Practice
Kansas City Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi (hamstring) was observed taking batting practice on Tuesday. The speedster is currently on the 10-day injured list because of a left hamstring ailment, but it appears as if he is trending in the right direction. Mondesi has played well this season despite the small sample size, batting .360 to […]

How to Approach Hitters With Offseason Mechanical Adjustments
Fantasy baseball is inherently reactive. As proactive as fantasy managers try to be in terms of projecting player performance, there is always an information gap between what MLB players are doing (and plan to do in the future) and the publicly available information that fantasy managers leverage. In no aspect of the game is the […]
I Could've Been a Contender: Re-Evaluating Top Pitching Prospects
We get sucked in every year. Even if we try to talk ourselves out of it, we don't seem capable of following through. We see the GIFs of nasty strikeouts or read about dominance at the minor league level and we start fawning over the next big pitching prospect. We follow his progress as he […]

Kris Bubic Tagged For Four Home Runs Against Angels

Bubic pitched four innings and allowed six hits, two walks and six earned runs while striking out four. He gave up a total of four home runs in the game. Going into the game, he'd allowed […]
Champ or Chump: Cedric Mullins
Cedric Mullins is probably one of the biggest fantasy surprises of the year. The 26-year-old was virtually unheard of heading into 2021, though he logged MLB PAs in each season since 2018. Toiling in Baltimore can make it easy to get overlooked, especially if you're posting mediocre numbers with worse peripherals. Mullins gave up switch-hitting […]
Jorge Soler Hits His Fifth Home Run On Monday
Kansas City Royals designated hitter Jorge Soler went yard for the fifth time this year in Monday's loss to the Los Angeles Angels. The home run was a solo shot and it was Soler's only hit of the day as he went 1-for-3. He also reached base after being hit by a pitch in the […]
Jackson Kowar Can't Make It Through The First In His Debut
Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jackson Kowar had an MLB debut to forget against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. Kowar lasted just 2/3 of an inning, allowing three hits, two walks and four earned runs without recording any strikeouts. He was tagged with the loss as the Royals fell 8-3 in the game. The […]

Dynasty Baseball Risers and Fallers - Pitchers
Now that we are about one-third of the way into the 2021 MLB season, it would be prudent to revisit the dynasty rankings and identify the biggest risers and fallers.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (6/8/21): MLB DFS Lineups
We have a 15-game main slate on tap tonight, and it is quite the doozie. We have some ace arms in Bieber, Glasnow, and Buehler, with a few pitchers, priced way too cheap with Bassitt and Wood. As always on a 15-game slate, there are plenty of bats in play as well. No Coors in […]

Jakob Junis Optioned To Minors
Kansas City Royals pitcher Jakob Junis has been optioned to Triple-A to free up a roster spot for Jackson Kowar. This shouldn't surprise anyone with Junis posting a 5.19 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 35/11 K/BB ratio across 34 2/3 innings. He was already pulled out of the rotation, so Junis was the odd man out […]
Jackson Kowar To Make MLB Debut Monday
Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jackson Kowar is scheduled to make the start against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. The young starter will make his MLB debut after posting a 0.85 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 41/10 K/BB ratio over 31 2/3 innings of work in Triple-A this season. The fact he has been this […]
