After a limited two-game slate during the NBA return Thursday, we have six games on the schedule Friday. Five of them will make up the main slate on Yahoo, which tips off at 4 PM EST. Let’s dive into the matchups and discuss some players to target and avoid. GUARDS Luka Doncic, DAL vs. HOU ($53): This is an important game. The Mavericks currently occupy the seventh seed in the Western Conference and are three games behind the Rockets in the loss column for the sixth seed. They are also three… Source link

Thursday brings 10 more games in MLB, eight of which will make up the main evening slate on Yahoo. There are some exciting matchups among them, including the Twins hosting the Indians and the Rays taking on the Braves. Let’s dig into the options and discuss some players who are worth considering for your lineup. Pitchers The second-most expensive starting pitching option is Dinelson Lamet ($48), who looked sharp in his season debut by allowing one run and recording eight strikeouts across five… Source link

Welcome back! It’s been over four months since we’ve been able to partake in some NBA DFS action. While we only have a limited two-game slate Thursday, there is still money to be won. Let’s discuss some players to target and avoid as you craft your entry. GUARDS Donovan Mitchell, UTA at NO ($31): The Pelicans are by far the worst defensive team on this slate, allowing an average of 117 points per game. That should make the Jazz a popular team to stack with Mitchell among the best options. He’s… Source link

Despite COVID-19 concerns, the MLB season continues to press on. There are 15 games on the schedule Tuesday, nine of which will make up the main evening slate on Yahoo. Let’s dive right in and discuss some players to target for your lineup. Pitchers We are once again looking at an ugly group of starting pitchers to choose from. The one big name on the list is Walker Buehler ($50), but he’s facing the Astros and will likely be on a pitch count, making it hard to have any confidence in deploying… Source link

Monday’s main evening slate on Yahoo has already been dealt a significant blow with two games being canceled because of an outbreak of COVID-19 within the Marlins. Not only will the Marlins not play the Orioles, but the matchup between the Phillies (who just played the Marlins) and the Yankees has also been canceled. Let’s dig into the remaining options and discuss who might be worth considering for your entry. Pitchers The starting pitching options for this slate are pretty thin. With teams… Source link

It’s the first Sunday of the MLB season, and it only took us to the end of July to get it. Better late than never, as they say. As per usual, if you want to play daily fantasy baseball on a Sunday, you are going to want to get your lineups in early. After all, only four games start at 4:00 PM ET or later of the 15 games on the slate. If you don’t have a full slate of games to make your picks from, you’re really missing out. Everything is still up in the air, especially for pitching staffs,… Source link

MATCHES (EDT) FORWARDS Willian, CHE v. WOL (£20): The matchup against Wolves isn’t ideal, but Chelsea need a result to guarantee they finish in the top four and Willian continues to be their dominant free-kick taker, a role that helped him score at least 8.05 fantasy points in all but two games since the restart. He is also Chelsea’s penalty-taker, and in a match that could be close, there’s always the possibility that that comes into play. And speaking of goals, Olivier Giroud (£19) is… Source link

It’s good to be back. I will admit, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to write DFS articles for MLB this season. But we’re here now with the first Saturday of the MLB season. This is the first day all 30 teams will be in action. The first game starts at 1:05 PM ET, so if you want to play a full slate you will have to have your lineup in early. Since this is the first Saturday of the season, I am going to look at the full slate. However, I intend to focus on the games starting at 4:05 PM ET or… Source link

After a limited slate Thursday, Major League Baseball sets up for a busy Friday with 14 games on the schedule. Yahoo will include 11 of those in their main evening contest, leaving plenty of options to wade through. Let’s try to narrow things down and highlight some players to consider. Pitchers There is no shortage of aces set to take the mound. While there are a lot of great options, one that stands out in the top-tier price range is Shane Bieber ($50) against the Royals. He is coming off of… Source link
