DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/28/22): MLB DFS Lineups
Jeffrey Springs did his thing! The Rays couldn't get him a win, but he pitched six strong innings and gave up just two runs (both on solo home runs). I was heavily invested in his success in DFS and the prop market, so I was happy to see that, and I featured him in yesterday's […]
