With LeBron James flanked by three shooters and punk viking Chris Andersen, the Miami Heat might be too hot for San Antonio to handle. That much was evident in Game 6, when a headband-be-damned LeBron willed himself against the Spurs and forced a Game 7. San Antonio has no easy answer for a lineup that […]

Justin Verlander has a ritual — he eats Taco Bell the night before every start. But no; this has nothing to do with it either.

For the third time in four games, the Chicago Blackhawks and Boston Bruins needed overtime to determine a winner, but Game 4 hardly resembled the prior three. The electric action featured eleven goals, just one fewer than the total racked up in the first three games. Star netminders Tuukka Rask and Corey Crawford finally cracked, leading to a deluge of goals capped off by Brent Seabrook’s OT winner.

Tonight the Boston Bruins have the opportunity to put themselves on the brink of their seventh title, by earning their fourth 3-1 series lead of the postseason. Of course, they were able to close out their three previous series from that position, although they needed seven games and a miracle to finish off the Maple […]
Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup for June 19
![daily fantasy baseball](https://b3384186.smushcdn.com/3384186/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/USATSI_7301759_160320754_lowres-1024x728.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1)
I’ve recently been spending a decent amount of my budget in my Star Fantasy Leagues daily lineup on high-end starting pitching. While it has worked at times, I’ve been cold this week with that strategy as my pitchers have underachieved and my low-cost hitters have racked up too many strikeouts to make my team a […]
Fantasy Baseball Sleeper: Lonnie Chisenhall
![Lonnie Chisenhall](https://b3384186.smushcdn.com/3384186/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/USATSI_7229803_160320754_lowres-1024x682.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1)
Lonnie Chisenhall, a former top-25 prospect, opened the season as the Indians’ starting third baseman. By May 12, the 24-year-old had put up just three home runs and 11 runs batted in while posting a lousy .213/.253/.351 line. The Indians cut bait and sent him down to Triple-A which has done him a world of good and the former first-rounder is back in the Majors at just the right time.
