Mother Nature had other plans for us on Saturday morning, with three of five games getting postponed. Luckily Kiwoom was still able to get their game in and gave us a nice 5-3 win to cash at least one bet. Also luckily for us, the KT/Doosan game that was postponed on Saturday should feature the […]

We got the weekend started off on the right foot, thanks to Samsung pitching a shutout, while SK and Lotte put their bats to good use. The NC and LG pick was looking good for about half the game before the teams exploded for 11 combined runs in the fifth and sixth. Nonetheless, there was […]

When I woke up on Thursday morning, I got a little nervous about the two totals I took. Both games had five runs or less scored around the sixth inning, and Samsung hadn't even gotten on the board yet. The NC Dinos and Hanwha Eagles eventually saved the day putting up eight runs apiece and […]

Steve Janik 5 years agoTop NFL Betting Expert Picks For Conference Championship Week
San Francisco and Minnesota made me a little nervous early, scoring 24 combined points in the first half, but things slowed down in the second and the under hit comfortably. Baltimore just totally fell apart, and were stunned by the Titans, after being the top seed in the AFC. Green Bay teetered on blowing their […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoTop NFL Betting Expert Picks For The Divisional Round
It was a good Wild Card Round from betting purposes, that is of course if you didn't bet it all on the Patriots. It's hard to picture a time when you've seen New England struggle so much on offense, but Tennessee did what they needed to do. Buffalo completely fell apart in the second half […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoJared Cook Draws Tough Matchup Against Vikings
New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook has been red-hot of late, scoring five touchdowns over the last four games. His matchup against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday is a tough draw as well, as the Vikes have allowed just one touchdown to tight ends all season. However, quarterback Drew Brees has started trusting his […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoTre'Quan Smith A Risky Bet In Wild-Card Round
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith is coming off his best game of the season, catching five passes for 56 yards and a score. However, that was in a 42-10 blowout win over Carolina. Smith has scored four times since Week 12, but aside from last week, he hasn't caught more than three passes […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoTed Ginn Not A Good Option Against Vikings
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn should be considered nothing more than a GPP dart throw for the wild-card matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The 34-year-old hasn't scored in six weeks and has just six receptions on 11 targets in the last five games. The Vikings have a solid secondary, but quarterback Drew Brees just […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoMichael Thomas A Top Option For Wild-Card Round
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas has a wonderful matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in the wild-card on Sunday. Thomas recently broke the NFL's single-season receptions record, but he's also accrued 1,725 yards and nine touchdowns this year. He's arguably been the most steady source of fantasy points in the league. He'll draw Xavier […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoLatavius Murray Has Some Flex Appeal Against Vikings
New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray has performed well in a backup role to Alvin Kamara this season, but a wild-card matchup with the Minnesota Vikings proves to be a tough spot. Murray is very much a touchdown-dependent fantasy option, but he does have 34 receptions on the season, adding some PPR value to […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoAlvin Kamara Peaking At Right Time
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara scored four times in the last two games to end the regular season, and he heads into a middling matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in the wild-card round. Before Week 16, Kamara hadn't had a very impressive season, but he seems to be coming into his own when […]

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees is looking to continue his red-hot play in the wild-card matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Over his last five games, he's thrown 16 touchdowns and no interceptions and has led the Saints to a 4-1 record. Against the Vikings, Brees should be able to exploit a secondary that has […]

We ended the regular season at the same pace we've been on all year. Jameis Winston did what he needed to do help the total go over in overtime, meanwhile the Rams took care of business in a meaningless game. Week 17 Picks: 2-2 (50%) 2019-20 Picks: 33-33 (50%) As we begin the NFL playoffs, finding […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoSteelers Defense Gets Prime Spot Against Ravens Backups
The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense will face off with the AFC-leading Baltimore Ravens in Week 17, albeit without Lamar Jackson and Mark Ingram. The Steelers house arguably the best defense in football, so not having to face the most electric player in football definitely gives them a fantasy boost. TJ Watt is a candidate for AFC […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoVance McDonald Not An Option Against Ravens
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald can safely be left off your fantasy lineups in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens. McDonald has had a down year, catching just 36 passes for 254 yards and three touchdowns, and has just 34 yards on eight catches over the last four games. On a fantasy point per […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoDiontae Johnson Looking To Finish Rookie Season Strong
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson is fresh off the best game of his rookie season, where he caught eight balls for 81 yards and a score against the Jets. Now in Week 17, Johnson will rely on the Ravens secondary worrying about JuJu Smith-Schuster and James Washington to produce. Since Baltimore is expected to […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoJames Washington A Flex Option Against Ravens
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington has really come into his own over the second half of this season. Often serving as the team's WR1 in JuJu Smith-Schuster's absence, Washington has 44 receptions for 735 yards and three scores in his second full campaign. Against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Washington could slip behind the […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoJuJu Smith-Schuster Doesn't Offer Much Upside In Week 17
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster draws a tough card in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens. The USC product returned to action last Sunday after missing four games with a concussion and lingering knee issue. However, he proceeded to catch just two passes for 22 yards in a bad loss to the Jets. While […]

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (quadriceps) will not play in the 2019 regular season finale against the Baltimore Ravens, the team announced on Friday. Conner went down with the leg injury against the Jets last Sunday and will cede the starting role to Benny Snell Jr., who rushed for just 14 yards on seven […]
Steve Janik 5 years agoBenny Snell Jr. Could See Increased Workload
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. may wind up serving as the full-time back if James Conner (quad) is unable to go. Conner has missed practice all week after toting just six carries a week ago, before going down with the injury. However, in Snell's seven carries against the Jets, he rushed for just […]

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges gets to face off with the Baltimore Ravens in a win-or-go-home matchup on Sunday. Hodges has started each of the last four games, and despite being benched in Week 16 for Mason Rudolph (shoulder), the rookie will get his fifth straight start since Rudolph got placed on injured reserve.
