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.
Don’t look now, but the Rockies are red-hot coming into today’s matchup with the Cardinals. Well, red-hot in context of its season, as Colorado has won three of its five games coming out of the All-Star break. Heck, it has a chance to win two straight series with a victory this afternoon. That’s a big […]

With the MLB Trade Deadline just over a week away, we’re starting to be on high alert for #HugWatch. You know, when a player gets traded mid-game, so they just start hugging all their teammates in the dugout? I doubt that happens in today’s tilt between the Royals and the Cubs, yet there is a […]

What’s the old saying? Father Time is undefeated? That might not be more applicable in the current season of MLB than with Justin Verlander’s tenure with the Giants. Verlander is just 38 wins away from 300. There’s a chance he’ll be the last pitcher to ever accomplish the feat, yet with each passing game, that […]

We are just over a week away from the 2025 MLB Trade Deadline and, with apologies to Bryan Baker, we have yet to see a big name get dealt. I’d expect that starts to change very soon. The difficult aspect of this year’s trade deadline is that so many teams find themselves in a bit […]

I’ll admit it. I’m a major baseball nerd and the following stat makes me giddy. Tonight’s contest between the Yankees and the Blue Jays will feature a pitching matchup between Cam Schlittler and Max Scherzer. It will be Schittler’s second-career start at the MLB level. For Scherzer? It’ll be his 463rd. You can’t get two […]

Home runs. Long balls. Bleacher reachers. Whatever you want to call them, people love watching and betting on home runs during baseball games. So much so, we’ve got a whole article dedicated to just that. With all 30 teams in action on Tuesday, here are my top three picks on the DraftKings Sportsbook to go […]

Four years ago, you wouldn’t want to touch a Zack Wheeler vs. Walker Buehler matchup from a home run prop betting perspective. However, this evening is a different story — as least as it pertains to Buehler. The 30-year-old has struggled in his time with the Red Sox and now he’ll be asked to shut […]

In general, this probably isn’t the game you want to be looking at for home run potential on Monday’s slate. Putting aside the fact that the Pirates have hit the fewest number of long balls in MLB (66) or that Paul Skenes will be taking the mound this evening, PNC Park has been the worst […]

Games in July don’t get much bigger than this. With a 42-21 record in their last 63 contests, the Blue Jays have shot up the standings in the American League East and now sit with a three-game lead over the Yankees entering play on Monday. Funnily enough, that’s exactly who the team will welcome into […]

We’re nearing the 100-game mark of the regular season for many teams, which means the baseball will only continue to get spicier and more important. Tonight is a perfect example, as the Yankees travel north of the border to square-off with the Blue Jays in a battle for AL East supremacy. How much will that […]

We’re so back. To celebrate the unofficial second-half of the MLB regular season kicking off on Friday night, DraftKings is rolling out an 11-game DFS slate with a $50,000 grand prize. Not too shabby. Which players should you be building your lineups around? Let’s dive into all the action on the diamond. Set your DraftKings […]
