Starlin Castro On Pace For Best Offensive Season
Washington Nationals second baseman Starlin Castro has been a staple in the No. 3 spot of his club’s lineup thus far in 2020, having had something of an offensive revival. Through his first 16 games, Castro is on pace to set a new career high with a .797 OPS. The sample size is small, but […]

Sean Doolittle Placed On IL, Seth Romero Set For Debut
Washington Nationals left-handed pitcher Sean Doolittle will hit the injured list due to fatigue in his right knee with lefty prospect Seth Romero taking his roster spot ahead of Thursday’s contest against the Mets.

Deeper Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 4
The 2020 season continues to move along and with it, more challenges to find deep league sleepers. Playing time situations are still a little shaky for some teams, and lineups are anything but stable as the season crosses the quarter mark. There are still some intriguing names who are being a little underlooked that can […]
Will Harris On Track To Be Activated Thursday
Washington Nationals right-handed pitcher Will Harris (groin) is progressing toward being activated from the injured list for the club’s contest Thursday against the Mets.

Hot Prospects To Watch: Next In Line and Hot Starters
Perhaps there's nothing more tantalizing in fantasy baseball than drafting an up-and-coming prospect or rushing to the waiver wire to bid on a Triple-A call-up. With no minor leagues this year, our favorite prospects are now playing on taxi squads, making it difficult for us to fantasize about since we can't get eyes on their […]
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.

Last week's full launch of The Baller Ranks was one of the most gratifying things I've done with fantasy baseball, and I want to thank everyone who reached out with support, suggestions, and questions.

2B and SS Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 4
With a 60-game slate, deft work on the waiver wire is even more crucial than it is in a full season. Injuries and ineffectiveness will be that much more challenging to overcome, so every decision takes on added importance. As in prior seasons, our focus will be on those players who are rostered in under […]
The Cut List (Week 4) - Time to Let Go?
The season is about one-quarter over for the luckiest teams, who have played up to 14 games out of 60. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have played all of five.

MLB DFS Prop Picks for Monday, August 10th - Monkey Knife Fight
It's hard to believe, but some teams are already a quarter of the way through the MLB season. Unfortunately, with the quarter-season mark sitting at just 15 games, early-season trends are difficult to rely on. Although that can make decisions difficult for fantasy players, it can also lead to opportunities for DFS players. Our friends […]
FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/10/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice
We kick start a new week with nine games on the main slate for FanDuel. That leaves us with a very high-salary pitcher (Patrick Corbin $10,800) and some middle-tier arms. It's always nice to have more high-upside options, but we can still grab Dustin May or Kyle Gibson to anchor our teams. I could go […]
Patrick Corbin Set To Face Mets Again Monday
Washington Nationals left-handed pitcher Patrick Corbin struck out eight batters last Tuesday when he faced the Mets. Now, he gets set to make his next start, which also comes against the Mets, albeit this time at Citi Field. Corbin’s ERA last season away from Nationals Park jumped up to 4.18, as opposed to 2.40 at […]
Sean Doolittle Not A Fantasy Option At This Stage
Washington Nationals left-handed pitcher Sean Doolittle has been open about not yet having answers to correct what has gone wrong for him on the hill in 2020. With Daniel Hudson now entrenched as the team’s closer moving forward, Doolittle -- who yielded two home runs Saturday to bring his ERA to 18.00 -- is no […]
Adam Eaton Slumping Since Opening Day Blast
Washington Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton got off to a hot start in 2020, homering in his first plate appearance against Yankees ace Gerrit Cole. Since then, essentially nothing has gone right at the dish, as he has hit .222 through his first 12 games with a .626 OPS. Eaton is striking out at a higher […]
