DFS: By George I Think I See A Blue Jay

Did you know that LHPs on average hold hitters to a below average wRC+ while RHPs allow above average offense. Without factoring in price or ownership, rostering left handed starters would be a better statistical play over time. Most of the lefties today are priced up, but Matthew Liberatore is less than 8k and faces […]

One method for breaking down a slate is to look at each game in the DK app and pinpoint the SPs and offense you want to target. Here are some “first glance” thoughts. TB at BOS: Giolito is generally worse vs. RHBs who get a big park upgrade at Fenway, but TB will roster 6 […]

If anyone gets the D2: The Mighty Ducks reference in the title, brilliant! I went backwards today and wrote about the players I am focusing on below before this initial breakdown. I don’t want to write too much here, because my basic message is that I like the Cardinals and the Blue Jays tonight. I […]

DFS is never easy. I am mired in a slump of sorts where it seems like I am a day or two off of my recommendations. It basically seems like every time I roster a player or a pitcher, they have their ceiling game a day or two after I roster them. Still, I must […]

Games that are played in Colorado are more likely to produce a higher score because Coors has 12% more scoring than the average game. DFS players know this and love to roster opposing offenses in Colorado, but the players’ prices increase as well. Aaron Judge had his price raised nearly 10% because of this matchup […]

When you look at pitcher heat maps, you will see a red circular shape where the pitcher most often hits the catcher’s mitt. Some pitchers have two spots they like to target in the zone, but most have one particular spot they like to focus inside the zone. For Tarik Skubal, that dot is very […]

11 of the top 25 starting pitchers (by SIERA) are starting today. Cole Ragans, Jack Flaherty, and Max Meyer are in this grouping, but due to some small sample issues, they still have an ERA over 4. This means that with 24 offenses to choose from, I am cancelling out 11 right away. Here is […]

Whenever I review a slate and find the makings of a straightforward slate, my mind instantly starts looking for the holes. Can the advanced stats, the matchup charts, and Vegas all be wrong somewhere, and if so, is it worth it to take the risk? I am usually very grateful for this way of thinking, […]

I start my process every day by recognizing that making money in DFS requires 1st place finishes every so often and that I must have a fearless mentality (willing to lose) in order to win. I love the way this slate sets me up to play fearless tonight. I think the high priced “safe” pitching […]

If you haven’t done this already, grab your phone (or laptop) and open up the DK app to check out the slate tonight. Start by going through the list of pitchers, and if your bias works anything like mine, you will start identifying pitchers who you want to play tonight. Up at the top, Tarik […]

We have a fun 10 game slate tonight on DraftKings. There are 3 exciting SPs that come with expensive price tags and 3 cheaper SPs I will be looking to roster. Personally, I use K/BB ratios and projected K/BB to hone in on the most viable SPs for the day. I also look at the […]

How is it going so far for you this DFS season? Think about how your season-long teams are doing and how your DFS results have gone. What attitude are you approaching today’s slate with? If you have not been successful, there can be a slight bias developing towards more conservative game play in DFS while […]
