FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (6/4/18): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

We've got an exceptionally small Monday slate, and there are really no "safe" pitching options. That means there is plenty of cash to go around to use on batters. The Yankees figure to be the stack of the day, but Atlanta and Arizona are also intriguing options to consider, even if the ballpark isn't the […]

Trading Up - Paul Goldschmidt

Since 2013, Paul Goldschmidt has helped fantasy baseball owners win leagues in every format. This season I’ve been seeing posts for a month declaring Goldschmidt as “old-s**t.” It’s a steep fall. At the start of the season, Goldschmidt was a no-doubt first-round pick. Owners could take him number 3, and someone might grumble about Nolan […]

Clint Frazier Being Recalled For Doubleheader

The New York Yankees will bring back a familiar face as they play a doubleheader in Detroit against the Tigers on Monday. Outfielder Clint Frazier, who was with the club last month before being sent back down to Triple-A, was scratched from Sunday’s Scranton/Wilkes-Barre game in anticipation of a call-up. In 26 games for the […]

The Cut List (Week 10) Time to Let Go?

Welcome to Week 10 of the Cut List. My suggestions from last week were looking good until Eduardo Escobar hit three home runs between Thursday and Friday. That’ll happen occasionally, but I think my suggestions have been sound throughout the year. This week, I take a look at Kevin Pillar, Adam Duvall, Gregory Polanco, and […]

Miguel Andujar Drives In Three In Victory

Resuming their series against the lowly Baltimore Orioles, the New York Yankees once again emerged victorious at Camden Yards on Saturday afternoon. Following a lengthy rain delay, the club scored eight runs to walk away with another victory, putting them 20 games over .500. The offensive start was third baseman Miguel Andujar, who hit a […]

Giancarlo Stanton Smashes Home Run In Baltimore

After Miguel Andujar’s two-run home run put the New York Yankees up in the second inning of Saturday afternoon’s matchup against the Baltimore Orioles, another home run increased the lead. It came an inning later off the bat of Giancarlo Stanton, who’s still trying to find his way with the Yankees. The 28-year-old stepped up […]

Sonny Gray Bounces Back In Baltimore

Still wildly inconsistent, New York Yankees starter Sonny Gray put forth one of his best starts of the season on Friday night in Baltimore, picking up his fourth victory to match his total losses. The 28-year-old, who was taking on the Orioles, went six strong, surrendering only one run on four hits, with a first-inning […]

Austin Romine Stays Red-Hot In Victory

While rarely getting full games considering he’s the backup catcher, Austin Romine is currently on a tear for the New York Yankees. The 29-year-old rode a nine-game hitting streak into Friday’s game against the Baltimore Orioles, making his regular start with Sonny Gray on the mound. He would record two hits from the eight spot […]

Greg Bird Hits First Triple Of Season

Playing in his fifth game of the season after debuting following time missed with an ankle injury and surgery, New York Yankees first baseman Greg Bird recorded another offensive milestone. Taking on the Baltimore Orioles Friday night, the 25-year-old recorded only one hit in five plate appearances, but it came at an important moment. With […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (6/1/18): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

As we welcome the month of June, hopefully much of the Spring showers are behind us. The rain - and rainouts - have gotten a bit out of hand. Does it sound like I got burned by the Yankees - Orioles rainout? Because I most certainly did. Anywho, beautiful 15 game slate on deck for […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire: H2H Category Streamers

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster […]
