The PGA TOUR heads to Mississippi this week for the Sanderson Farms Championship. For DFS gamers, that means a return to stroke-play format after last week’s team event. That puts the emphasis back on finding cut-makers with upside instead of trying to calculate how many matches a golfer will play. The longtime host course is the Country Club of Jackson. It’s a par 72 with lots of beefy par 5s and fast, bermuda greens. Let’s hover over that last angle and look at top performers on courses with… Source link

After a quiet Monday, baseball roars back with 15 games Tuesday. Two of the top games to watch are the Braves facing the Nationals and the Mets hosting the Marlins. Neither is part of an overly exciting series, but they carry playoff implications with the Braves and Mets battling it out for the lead in the NL East. There are some big-name pitchers expected to take the mound, including Shane Bieber, Zack Wheeler and Robbie Ray. With so many players to consider on Yahoo, let’s try to help… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series. We get the full slate of games to look at Sunday! The only concern is that with the autumn weather here, the looming threat of rain rises. It’s definitely even more important than usual to start paying attention to weather reports in the lead up to the day’s games. First pitch is at 1:05 p.m. ET. Here are my lineup recommendations. Pitching Max Scherzer, NYM at OAK ($61): Sweating out an NL East battle with Atlanta, the Mets can’t… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series. Fall is here. Amid the pumpkin spice and the colorful leaves, we’ve still got some regular-season baseball. This is the final Saturday of September, and there are eight MLB games starting at 7:05 p.m. EDT or later. Autumn brings you sweater weather, and I bring you these DFS recommendations. Pitching Joe Ryan, MIN vs. LAA ($44): Ryan is usually happy to take the mound in Minnesota with a 2.85 home ERA. “Los Angeles” (if you have… Source link

Thursday’s slate brings a heavy dose of day games. Among the pitchers to take the mound early will be George Kirby, who will be looking to improve the Mariners’ playoff positioning in a favorable matchup against the Athletics. For the night slate, Aaron Judge will try to continue his assault on the record books when the Yankees host the Red Sox. We also have the potential for a stellar pitching matchup out West with Julio Urias and the Dodgers facing Zac Gallen and the Diamondbacks. Let’s… Source link

Whether you’ve played Daily Fantasy on Yahoo before or are giving it a try for the first time, this weekly column will take an early look at the DFS landscape, revealing whom I like building lineups around, stars to fade, undervalued plays and bargain bin options to help you construct a better team. Lineup building blocks Stefon Diggs ($31) @ Miami Dolphins Diggs’ DFS salary this week was locked in before he blew up Monday night, which makes him look like a bargain having recorded the most… Source link

Last week gave us a ton of excellent performances from multiple players (Lamar Jackson, Tua Tagovailoa, Jalen Hurts, Amon-Ra St. Brown) that you hopefully had in your NFL DFS lineups. Week 3’s daily fantasy football main slate is loaded with a ton of interesting matchups, which means there will be plenty of potential value sleepers and star players putting up points. Our Yahoo DFS tournament lineup targets what we hope is a good mix of both, saving salary at our QB, RBs, and TE spots while… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series. Football has already subsumed Sundays, but DFS opportunities abound for MLB fans. You can always set your lineup and watch NFL games all day if you want. All 15 games have been included by Yahoo, which means you need to get your lineups in by 12:10 p.m. ET. Here are the players I like for Sunday. Pitching Framber Valdez, HOU vs. OAK ($56): Season by season, Valdez has gotten better. This year, he has a 2.55 ERA through 27 starts…. Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series. Saturday is packed to the brim with MLB action as there are 17 games on the slate. That’s more than there are teams for, which means doubleheaders and those matchups are removed from DFS contention. The main slate of contests start at 7:10 p.m. EDT. Here are my lineup recommendations. Pitching Zac Gallen, ARI vs. SD ($53): Gallen’s scoreless streak ended, but he only allowed three runs in six innings with 11 strikeouts at Coors… Source link

After a fairly muted Thursday schedule, all 30 teams are set to be in action Friday. There will only be one day game, leaving us with a loaded night slate. As far as top pitchers go, there will be plenty for us to enjoy. The most notable name is Justin Verlander (calf), who is expected to come off of the injured list to start against the Athletics. We are also set to see Robbie Ray, who will try to improve on his 12-9 record in a matchup with the Angels. With so many options to wade through… Source link
