FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/2/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

There are eight games today, but there is a matinee in Toronto(!) that shortens the main slate to seven games on FanDuel.

We have a manageable nine-game slate on tap in MLB DFS on FanDuel tonight, and it feels like it'll be a very interesting one as we're just one day removed from one of the busiest trade deadlines ever. There are only two teams (CWS and LAD) with implied totals of at least five runs, so […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/31/21): MLB DFS Lineups

It's a fairly reasonable DraftKings Saturday in MLB. The Jays pissed off DraftKings by starting an hour earlier than the rest of the 4pm Eastern games, so they go into their own showdown. The five game early slate looks solid, but I'm here to take you through the nine-game main prime time slate on DraftKings. […]

Kyle Gibson, Ian Kennedy Traded To Phillies

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (7/30/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

The last MLB Friday slate of July features an interesting pitching pool, one that’s a bit short on reliable arms in my view. That makes plucking our anchor play and possible alternate selection a bit trickier than on other occasions, but I believe I’ve found two reliable candidates for those roles. Any time there’s questions […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/30/21): MLB DFS Lineups

Happy Friday, RotoBallers! This trade deadline is something else. Yesterday, we saw Max Scherzer, Trea Turner, and Anthony Rizzo change teams. While there are a dozen moves I could discuss, those two stand out because they will produce postseason tremors among the elite teams. Now, we get to follow the deadline with a massive dose of […]

Joey Gallo Traded To The Yankees

The Texas Rangers have traded first baseman/outfielder Joey Gallo to the New York Yankees in exchange for right-hander Glen Otto, second baseman Ezequiel Duran, shortstop Josh Smith, and outfielder Trevor Hauver. The 27-year-old will head to New York, where his elite power should play well with the short porch in right field at Yankees stadium. […]
