DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/30/16): MLB DFS Advice
This is the last slate before our long Fourth of July weekend. Not that you can't keep playing over the weekend, but an excess adult beverages usually results in less DFS success. At least that's what I've found. But it's still just as fun! Thursday gives us an eight-game main slate with just three games... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/23/16): MLB DFS Advice
I'll tell you what, most days I wake up wishing I was an MLB player. This morning, I'm just glad that I'm no Michael Taylor. Five strikeouts and the game-ending error on a ground ball under his glove in center field. Ouch. With a fairly split day today, we have two slates to potentially worry... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/16/16): MLB DFS Advice
Congratulations to Ichiro! Truly one of the best hitters of all time, and seemingly one of the most respectful and grateful players off all time as well. I can't wait to see him hit 3,000 hits in his MLB career. With just a small, spread out three games making up the early slate, I'll be focusing on... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 6/13/16
Well, it was a great day for MLB hitters on Monday. Nine of the 20 teams in action scored seven or more runs. So, that also means that we saw some struggling pitchers too. But don't worry, there were still a few impressive pitching performances to mention. Here are some of the MLB players who... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 6/12/16
Every MLB got their game in on Sunday, and the results were awesome as always. We had some excellent pitching displays countered with some powerful hitting performances. ESPN even broadcasted two games from the right field bleachers, which would be awesome if they had some talented commentators. Let's recap. Here's some players who played like a... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/9/16): MLB DFS Advice
There are nine games total on Thursday, but just two of them occur before 7:05 pm eastern time. So, we'll work with the main, seven-game slate. The pitching on this slate is absolutely horrendous. I think your best bet is to play a few tournaments and hope for the best. Trying to build a cash... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 6/6/16
With the Mets and Pirates game postponed, we were left with a nine game slate for Monday night. Still, there was plenty of excitement to go around. Let's jump right in. Here are some of the MLB players who succeeded Monday... and some who didn't. Editor’s Note: to read about even more waiver wire options,... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 6/5/16
What a pleasant day of Sunday baseball. It's tough to be made about a day filled with 15 MLB contests. While there were a lot of average to good performances, there were certainly some good and bad standouts. Here's who came to play and who took a proverbial day off on Sunday. Editor’s Note: to read... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/2/16): MLB DFS Advice
We have plenty of games to choose from on Thursday, and we even have a semi-serviceable early slate with three games between noon and 3 p.m. eastern time. The best DFS pitchers of the day all come in the early slate, so the late slate will require some reliance on a non-ace at the pitcher... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/30/16
What an awesome Memorial Day it was. Like Sunday all over again, we had day games and night games spread out accordingly. With the Penguins in the Stanley Cup and the Warriors and Thunder battling in Game 7, I didn't have nearly enough TVs last night. Here are some of the MLB players who succeeded... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/29/16
It was a rainy Sunday across many parts of the U.S.A., but that didn't stop teams from getting their games in. It's tough to beat a day filled with 15 MLB games, especially when they're spread out like they were on Sunday. There was plenty of excitement and depression for MLB players on Sunday, so...

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/26/16): MLB DFS Advice
We have a mere eight games on Thursday, and three of them are part of an "early" slate. I have acted as if you might play an all-day slate as far as my picks go, so use them to your own advantage with whatever slate you decide to play. The pitchers are interesting tonight, as... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/23/16
Monday night was an interesting collection of games, but the Pirates started at noon and we had a consistent flow of action until past midnight on the east coast. Can't argue about that. Oh, and Miguel Cabrera is still really, really good. Here's a quick rundown of those who impressed on Monday, and those who... Read More

Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/22/16
There were some rainy games on Sunday, but all but one game in Pittsburgh finished without issue. There were some dominant pitching performances alongside some impressive hitting numbers. All in all, it was a great Sunday of baseball, and we're left wondering if David Ortiz is playing the best baseball of his life. Here's a... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/19/16): MLB DFS Advice
With just two early games and nine late, we'll spend our time looking at the main slate for Thursday's action. We have a few top notch pitchers to deal with, and some pretty mediocre options behind them. As the weather heats up, we'll begin to see more runs on a regular basis. The key, however,... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/16/16
Just eight games were played on Monday after the Royals and Red Sox were postponed in KC, but there were plenty of runs scored across the board. When plenty of runs are scored, that means we have some pitchers who didn't quite do their job. Here's a quick look at those who impressed on Monday,... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/15/16
Well, a WWE fight broke out in the Blue Jays and Rangers game. Except, this fight was very real. If you haven't seen Rougned Odor clock Jose Bautista yet, stop reading for just one second and check this out. Here's a quick look at those who impressed on Sunday, and those who... well, did not....

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/12/16): MLB DFS Advice
What a day for pitching! Thursday presents us with multiple aces along with pitchers who have big upside while presenting plenty of risk. Pinpointing the top pitchers of the night will be vital on this eight-game slate, so let's see what we can do. With so many good pitching options, the stacks will be more... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/9/16
Every day, we will be taking a quick look at the best and worst fantasy baseball performers from yesterday's games. In today's news, two games were postponed on Monday, but that didn't stop us from having a high-scoring night. Oh, and by the way, Justin Upton still stinks. Here's a quick look at those who impressed... Read More
Yesterday's Studs and Duds: Fantasy Baseball Recap from 5/8/16
Every day, we will be taking a quick look at the best and worst fantasy baseball performers from yesterday's games. In today's news, if Bryce Harper gets on base seven times in one game but doesn't record an at bat, did he actually play baseball on Sunday? Here's a quick look at those who impressed... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/5/16): MLB DFS Advice
I'm going to assume that no one is going to play the all day slate. Let's be honest, it's not worth risking locking some lineup spots early just so you can get in one early game and one of those weird 6:00 (ET) matchups. Besides, all the money is on the main slates anyway. There... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (4/28/16): MLB DFS Advice
Hey guys! Happy Thursday. I'm assuming no one will be playing an all-day slate, so I'll try to give you an option or two from both the early and the late slates for each position. In the early slate I like two pitchers and a whole lot of hitters. There are three obvious stacks, and... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (4/21/16): MLB DFS Advice
We have a boat load of pitchers to deal with on Thursday. I'm assuming no one is playing the all-day slate, so you get to pick two of the following in the early slate: Clayton Kershaw, Max Scherzer, and David Price. And two of these in the late slate: Gerrit Cole, Jake Arrieta, and Dallas... Read More
MLB DFS Lineup Picks & Sleepers - DraftKings Advice for 4/14/16
Choosing pitchers will be tough on this slate. The good ones are pinned up against one another, and the bad ones are, well, bad. Still, that makes DFS all the more fun, right? We have a Coors game and plenty of different slates with games going on all day. Let's win some money! In this... Read More

Tom Bellucco's 10 Bold Predictions for 2016
Fellow writer Kyle Bishop had a great idea for us "experts" to come up with a plethora of bold predictions. So far we've see the 10 bold predictions from Kyle and Max. Now it's my turn. I like to think I did fairly well on my more conservative predictions last year (believing in the Gerrit Cole,... Read More

NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel Basketball Advice for 3/8/16
Six games is nothing to scoff at for a Tuesday. We should have some high totals as well, likely coming from Toronto, Portland, and Los Angeles. Two of the teams we try to avoid (San Antonio and Utah) are on this slate, but that doesn't mean you have to disregard the game entirely. With that... Read More

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice (3/1/16): NBA DFS Lineup Picks
Happy March! We open up one of the greatest sports months of the year with a fine six-game slate. Injury news came in flurries last night, and it didn't stop until about 10:15. Nights like that make FanDuel very difficult to play. In fact, I even had trouble on DraftKings, as I ran out of... Read More
