Garion is a Toronto-based writer who has been playing fantasy sports since elementary school. With a particular affinity for advanced statistics and sabermetrics, he’s been covering DFS Baseball, Football and Basketball for DraftKings dating back to 2018. Prior to that, Garion’s work could be found at FNTSY, SportsGrid, HoopsHype, The New York Daily News and Sportsnet.ca. Still, he is a Dolphins fan, so his decision-making can be questioned from time-to-time.
Are you ready for some All-Star baseball? Well, you better be, because there isn’t much else going on in the sports world until the British Open tees off on Thursday.

Welcome to the slowest week in the American Sports calendar. A week so slow, that we’re all going to bet on the Home Run Derby — an event that is famously chaotic and weird. Will you be screaming at an elderly man by the end of the night because he was throwing horrible batting practice […]

Allow me to take a moment to highlight the start time of tonight’s MLB slate. Lock is 6:05 p.m. ET. It’s a weird one, so make sure to write it down or use a fun mnemonic device to remember it. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Let’s find some studs and values on the diamond. […]

Technically, we have an 11-game featured MLB slate tonight on DraftKings, but I wouldn’t get too attached to that number. There’s a lot of rain expected in the Midwest on Tuesday. As such, you’ll have to keep a close eye on the games taking place in Cincinnati, St. Louis and Chicago. Have fun on the […]

Who says there isn’t high level basketball happening in early July? No. I’m not talking about the start of Summer League. I’m talking about the run of Olympic qualifiers that finished up this past weekend, cementing the Men’s Basketball field for Paris 2024.

Do you know what heartbreak is? It’s not losing that high school love that you thought was the one. No. Not even close. It’s having the under in a Pirates-Cardinals game and knowing it’s about to go to extra innings with the stupid ghost runner at second base. That’s heartbreak. I guess that’s my long […]

There’s so many aces on the pricing list this evening, starting with Tyler Glasnow ($10,800) right at the very top. Should you pay up for the […]

Eagles. Apple pie. Baseball. These are all things that people associated with the USA back in the 1950s, but for the purposes of this article, we’re going to pretend that they all still matter. It’s July 4. Independence Day. As such, the good people at MLB are supplying you with action on the diamond all […]

Right off the top, I have to apologize. I didn’t get a chance to write this article on Monday, as it was Canada Day here in, well, Canada. Still, trust me when I say I would’ve had you bet against the Blue Jays. I promise. We’re 31-20 (+10.0u) for the season. Let’s find some winners […]

It’s Tuesday and there’s a massive 11-game featured slate taking place on the diamond this evening. Are you a fan of elite starting pitching? Because there’s no shortage of aces taking the mound tonight, including AL Cy Young Award favorite Tarik Skubal ($10,500) and Reynaldo Lopez ($9,600), the only man in baseball with 75-plus innings […]
