Despite tonight being just an eight-game slate, the pitching is stacked at the top, with multiple arms who are in contention to take home their league’s Cy Young Award in 2023. There’s also Randy Vasquez ($6,200), who will be asked to go up against the juggernaut that is the Braves’ lineup. Sorry, Randy. Short straw. […]

This is one of those pitching slates that I wish I could show the March version of myself. Jordan Montgomery ($11,000), Lucas Giolito ($10,700) and Jack Flaherty ($8,400) are where? Yusei Kikuchi ($9,000) is deserving of being $9K? Who the heck is Bryce Elder ($8,700) and why is he so expensive? Fortunately, the August version […]

As is often the case on Thursdays, we’ve got an extremely light slate in baseball tonight. There are just four games taking place under the lights, and with some underwhelming pitchers set to take the mound, the moneyline odds on the DraftKings Sportsbook are all looking pretty lopsided.

I just want to take a moment off the top to congratulate Framber Valdez ($11,000) on his no-hitter last week. The fact it was also a Maddux is insane and truly speaks to how dominant the left-hander was that evening. Even more crazy? The fact that Valdez has registered 47.7 DKFP and -8.4 DKFP in […]

I technically went 0-2 on article plays yesterday, but I do want to take a quick moment to pat myself on the back. It takes a strong man to admit when he’s wrong, though when you’re wrong as often as I am, it does get easier with practice. Cardinals ML down to +120 with Arenado, […]

It’s here. The MLB Trade Deadline. The next 24 hours could be a blur of transactions, but with several big names having already been moved this past weekend, I wouldn’t worry too much about said deals affecting your lineups. Spencer Strider ($12,500) and Framber Valdez ($11,100) aren’t on the block, you know what I mean? […]
