MLB Betting Picks (8/15/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines
Welcome back, RotoBallers! My sincerest apologies if you missed me last weekend. I was enjoying a relaxing bachelor weekend with some of my best friends, and betting MLB just wasn't on my mind. However, the good news for you is that I've remained HOT since my return on Tuesday. I've now profited up over 12 […]
FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/15/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice
Get ready for another Saturday of MLB action, with seven games on the main slate.

In this article, we'll identify […]

Logan Morrison Elects Free Agency After Being DFA’d
The Logan Morrison Era in Milwaukee comes to an end after just 28 plate appearances. When the Brewers designated Morrison for assignment, he was not claimed off waivers, and he chose not to accept an outright assignment. His departure paves the way for Justin Smoak and Ryan Braun to see the vast majority of playing […]
Ryan Braun Sits Friday, Will Return To Field Saturday, Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder/designated hitter Ryan Braun is not among the starting nine for Friday’s contest against the Cubs and right-handed pitcher Alec Mills. Manager Craig Counsell said that the move was by design to give Braun time to recover as he is just making his return from a finger infection. His next step is to […]

MLB Betting Picks (8/13/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines
Things definitely started off on the wrong foot when Miami scored eight runs in the first three innings, completely destroying the F5 under. I don't regret that play, Nate Pearson just got pounded. However, Minnesota made things better, beating the over themselves and early. The Twins are certainly a dangerous offense but this was just […]
Josh Lindblom Strikes Out Eight In No Decision
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Josh Lindblom didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Twins, giving up four runs on seven hits and two walks over four innings. He struck out eight batters. The eight strikeouts were a season-high for the right-hander, but Lindblom was on the hook for his first loss […]
Josh Hader Strikes Out Three In Save
Milwaukee Brewers closer Josh Hader walked one and struck out three in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his third save of the season in a 6-4 win over the Twins. The southpaw had been merely good through his first three appearances of 2020 but Hader looked more like his overpowering self in this […]
Manny Pina Powers Comeback Win
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Manny Pina went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Twins. The homers were the first two of the season for Pina, but the 33-year-old backstop has been productive when called upon -- he has a five-game hitting streak going, and Tuesday's big performance pushed […]
Avisail Garcia Connects On First Home Run
Milwaukee Brewers center fielder Avisail Garcia went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Twins. He drove the second pitch he saw from Tyler Clippard into the second deck in left field for a leadoff homer. Garcia's blast was his first of the year, and he's now slashing .255/.352/.383 through […]
Jedd Gyorko Crushes Clutch Home Run Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jedd Gyorko went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Twins.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/12/20) - MLB DFS Lineups
Welcome to Wednesday where we have a modest eight-game slate featuring limited pitching options and tons of teams to consider stacking.

MLB Betting Picks (8/12/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines
Woof, maybe I need to go back to the KBO (/s). The Bal/Phi under was safe until the bottom of the eighth, after which 11 runs were scored into extra innings. What a debacle. Later on, the Rangers were able to tag Marco Gonzales for four runs early, but they didn't score after he left […]
