DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/11/19): MLB DFS Lineups

It is finally Saturday! With the weather warming up what better way to celebrate than with two baseball slates? Once again both slates are deemed "featured" by DraftKings, but with slightly more emphasis on the 8 game main slate at 7:10. Therefore, in this article I will be focusing on that late slate and trying […]

White Sox Acquire Paulo Orlando

The Chicago White Sox acquired outfielder Paulo Orlando from the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday, and he has been assigned to Triple-A Charlotte. It's likely the Dodgers received cash considerations in return. The 33-year-old is a .263/.289/.384 hitter in 918 plate appearances in the big leagues and is strictly outfield depth for the Pale Hose. […]

Rays Acquire Travis d'Arnaud From Dodgers

The Tampa Bay Rays traded for catcher Travis D'Arnaud from the Dodgers on Friday. The Rays had a hole at catcher after Mike Zunino was placed on the injured list and they filled it with the oft-injured d’Arnaud. In 11 games played this season between the Mets and Dodgers, d’Arnaud is hitting just .083 with […]

Stop Sleeping On Domingo German

When Luis Severino hit the injured list prior to the 2019 season, the Yankees pitching rotation appeared to lose their most threatening starter. When you lose a staff ace and a 19-game winner from the previous year, it undoubtedly shakes up the locker room as well as the mindset of upper-management for the upcoming season. […]

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Rich Hill allowed three earned runs, five hits and two walks with five strikeouts over five innings in a loss against the Washington Nationals on Thursday.

Keep Calm and Play On

David Freese is At First Base on Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder David Freese normally plays off the bench for the Dodgers and doesn't have much fantasy value. However, he's batting cleanup and playing first base against lefty Patrick Corbin on Thursday. Freese does have a good history against left-handed starters, and he's in a favorable part of the batting order. He's a […]
