MLB DFS Plays for 6/6/16
A new week begins with bats dominating the day, as runs appear to be plentiful on Monday night. The small slate mixed with the lack of top pitching options adds pressure to selecting the right hitters, but there are a handful of teams ready to explode. Currently, we are using xFIP and wOBA simply to […]
MLB DFS Plays for 6/5/16
Sunday closes the week of baseball with a rare two-game night schedule. Of course, the entire league will be in action, with a few top pitchers highlighting the day. Currently, we are using xFIP and wOBA simply to compare one pitcher’s performance against another – especially against opposite-handed hitters. We aren’t using these numbers for […]
MLB DFS Plays for 6/4/16
Saturday’s full schedule of baseball begins relatively late, with only one early afternoon game – and it brings a threat of rain, at that. The headliner of the night is, as always, Clayton Kershaw, as he puts his league-leading 1.56 ERA on the line against the Braves. Currently, we are using xFIP and wOBA simply […]
MLB DFS Plays for 6/3/16
After Thursday night’s run barrage by nearly every team, Friday appears to yield more of the same. More importantly, of the few top pitchers throwing – arguably, there may only be one – the head-to-head matchups are rather poor, yielding more one-sided affairs than usual.

Currently, we are using xFIP and wOBA simply to compare one pitcher’s […]
MLB DFS: Matt Dulcan’s All the $$$ Stack of the Day
This is a stack that will carry the multi home run upside needed to give you a shot to take down a GPP, and will typically not be the chalk offensive team of the day. The Victims: Lefty Adam Morgan and the Philadelphia Bullpen Adam Morgan is the exact type of pitcher that we like […]
MLB DFS Plays for 6/1/16
Three afternoon and one early evening game precede an otherwise full night slate, highlighted by two top ‘aces’ pitching to strikeout-happy offenses. With a game in Colorado and the Cubs coming off a home shutout, runs should be plentiful on Wednesday night. Currently, we are using xFIP and wOBA simply to compare one pitcher’s performance […]
MLB DFS Plays for 5/31/16
A trio of oddly-scheduled afternoon games prevents a full slate at night, but all thirty teams will be in action again on Tuesday. Unfortunately for the sake of matchups, some of the best pitchers of the day are not necessarily in ideal situations, but there are, at least, enough options to find a path to success. […]
