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.
We were so, so close to a full 15-game slate this evening, something it feels like we haven’t had all season. But alas, thanks to a 6:40 p.m. ET first pitch in Detroit, we’ll have to settle for just 14 games. Actually, with heavy rain expected in Chicago, let’s call it 13.5 games to be […]

Last night we had a perfect example of why you need to take advantage of the available promos on the DraftKings Sportsbook. That’s right! I’m a company man at heart. [awkwardly turns to the camera and gives a thumbs up while smiling] Anyway, thanks to the 2-Run Lead Early Win offer currently running, I was […]

Well, the heater is over. I tempted fate last Friday with three plus-money bets on the DraftKings Sportsbook, and I was quickly humbled with an 0-3 night. We remain 30-21 on article plays for the season as a whole, but I don’t want to make this a trend. Let’s get back on that horse and […]

Lots of big news around baseball the past 24 hours. Aaron Judge is back on the IL. Jacob deGrom will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the remainder of the season. Alek Manoah was sent all the way to Rookie Ball to try and cure what ails him. It’s been hectic in these 90-foot streets. […]

Right now, we’re on a heater. We’ve got “rizz” as the kids might say. I definitely used that right. Don’t look it up. After a 2-0 night on Thursday, we’re sitting at 13-4 on articles plays dating back to May 11. That brings our record to 30-18 (+13.9u) for the season as a whole. Exciting […]

A new month means some time for reflection — and we’ve been crushing it so far this season. Following a 12-8 record on article plays in May, we’re now sitting at 28-18 for 2023 as a whole. That comes out to a profit of 11.8 units. Pretty good, if I do say so myself. Tonight […]

We’ve got ourselves a four-game afternoon slate on Thursday to celebrate the first day of June. We’ve made it through the April showers and the May flowers, now we’ll hopefully get to see some June… horsepower? Now I see why that rhyme stopped after two. Forget poetry. Let’s talk baseball. Set your DraftKings fantasy baseball […]

Well, after tonight, it is no longer going to be May. My deepest apologies to Justin Timberlake. To celebrate the change of months and the general passage of days, let’s build some fantasy baseball lineups — as of forefathers did before us. DraftKings has a six-game featured slate kicking-off just past 7:00 p.m. ET. Let’s […]

I’m born and raised in the Great White North, so excuse my ignorance on this matter, but does the MLB season “officially” start after Memorial Day or Independence Day? Honestly, I’m dialed into every pitch from Opening Day, so it doesn’t really matter to me, but the question is particularly relevant this morning. Let’s just […]

I could sit here and wax poetic about the Tennessee Titans and the Green Bay Packers, but instead, I want to use this space to address a thought I’ve had since last Sunday: Scott Hanson looks like Ryan Tannehill ($9,600), right? I can’t unsee it. Maybe this has been covered before on NFL RedZone — […]

Let’s try this again, shall we? After MLB postponed Game 3 on Monday evening, the World Series should be back in action on Tuesday with the Houston Astros visiting the Philadelphia Phillies. However, the extra day of rest has brought changes to the expected pitching matchup, as Ranger Suarez ($10,600) will now take the mound […]
