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.
Well, we’ve reached that point of the season. The night where every baseball game could be the last baseball game of the year. After a commanding 11-7 victory in Game 4, the Texas Rangers now hold a 3-1 series advantage against the upstart Arizona Diamondbacks, with the veteran Nathan Eovaldi ($11,400) taking the ball in […]

There’s a ton of star-level players questionable on tonight’s 13-game NBA slate, so keeping up to date with the news is going to be key. Or don’t. I don’t know your life. You do whatever makes you feel right. However, I would strongly suggest reading the rest of this article. If only for the retention […]

Well, it’s Halloween. Usually, that would have very little to do with the fact that it’s also Game 4 of the World Series, yet for some baseball fans, nothing is scarier than the thought of dueling bullpen games in a contest of this magnitude. Way to freak out the septuagenarians, MLB. Good job. It’s the […]

Are we tired of the Las Vegas Raiders in primetime yet? I hope not. Because we’ve got the silver and black taking the field on ESPN this evening to finish off Week 8. Thankfully, Jimmy Garoppolo ($9,400) will be back under center for the Raiders, which should make the team infinitely more watchable. A matchup […]

There’s an 11-game slate in the NBA tonight, with most teams taking the court for the second time this season. So, while that means fewer injuries to exploit for value than usual, it also means some gaps in the ol’ DraftKings algorithm as coach’s figure out their new rotations. We’re here to take advantage of […]

It’ll be nice for the World Series to actually get going on Friday. It’s not just that I miss watching baseball, but the discourse surrounding this particular matchup has not been all that fun — the forced retirement of Chris Russo notwithstanding. Yet here we are. The 90-win Rangers squaring off with the 84-win Diamondbacks. […]

Another Thursday night slate. Another question mark at the quarterback position. This time it’s Baker Mayfield ($9,200; knee), who the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ruled questionable for their Week 8 tilt with the Buffalo Bills. However, as I don’t want to write two articles, I’m making the claim right off the top that Mayfield will play. […]

The NBA is back and so are wild Wednesday night slates. After a pair of entertaining games to open up the regular season on Tuesday, a whopping 24 teams are in action this evening to open up their schedules. However, with most teams fresh and healthy, where will you be able to turn for some […]

Sometimes good things happen in life. Sometimes you wake up a minute before your alarm clock was supposed to go off. Sometimes you get an 11th chicken nugget in that box of 10 from McDonalds. Sometimes you get a Game 7 on back-to-back days in the MLB playoffs. The Arizona Diamondbacks will take the field […]

This season has been a bit of a nightmare for the Minnesota Vikings and things don’t get much easier to end Week 7, as the team will line up against the San Francisco 49ers. Can Minnesota pull off the upset? Will both team be at full-strength? Let’s break it all down from a Showdown perspective. […]

Let’s be completely honest. We haven’t gotten the absolute best baseball this year in October. There’s been lopsided games, horrible pitching performances and, of course, lineups that couldn’t get a clutch hit to save their own lives — I’m looking at you Dodgers and Blue Jays. However, that’s what makes a contest like Game 3 […]
