Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller

5043 articles

You won't find a bigger Cubs fan than myself. Aside from my love of fantasy sports, which includes MLB, NFL and NBA, I own my own animal care business. I graduated from Columbia College in Chicago and currently reside in Chicago, IL. My love of fantasy sports started for me in the early 2000's and I have steadily been active with the same group of friends year in and year out for every league in baseball, basketball and football. I am hoping to help all RotoBaller members with any questions they may have. I consider myself an expert with minor league prospects, as it is a love of mine. I hope to give the best advice I can to the RotoBaller world!

Austin Ekeler Posts All Around Stats Versus Chiefs

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler put together a nice all-around performance in a Week 2 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs. Ekeler was a popular preseason selection and put up 84 yards in Week 1, but the pass-catcher only had one reception. Week 2 yielded better results with 93 yards and four catches […]


Justin Herbert Throws For 311 Yards In Debut

Los Angeles Chargers rookie quarterback Justin Herbert was called upon right before opening kick to start against the Chiefs in Week 2 with Tyrod Taylor (chest) hurting himself in warmups. The rookie performed as good as one could ask for and the stage didn’t seem to big for the youngster. The Oregon product completed 22 […]


Hunter Henry Remains A Strong Option At Tight End

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry will look to build off his Week 1 performance with a date against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. The injury prone tight end put together a team-high 73 yards with five catches and saw eight targets in Week 1 versus the Bengals. Henry was a favorite of […]


Mike Williams Could Benefit From Game Flow In Week 2

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams will look to build off of a solid Week 1 performance with a matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Williams was dealing with a shoulder injury last week, but was still able to grab four catches for 69 yards on nine targets. The most important part […]


Keenan Allen Will Look For Better Results In Week 2

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen had a rough opening week against the Bengals and will look to get back on track versus the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2. Allen was only able to muster four catches for 37 yards on eight targets in Week 1 with his new quarterback Tyrod Taylor. Allen […]


Joshua Kelley Looks To Build Off Week 1 Momentum

Los Angeles Chargers No. 2 running back Joshua Kelley is coming off of a nice Week 1 performance and will look to solidify himself as part of the backfield in Week 2 versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Although starting running back Austin Ekeler led the team with 67% of the snaps, Kelley chipped in with […]


Austin Ekeler Could Be A Strong Play In Week 2

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler had mixed results against the Kansas City Chiefs, who he'll face in Week 2, in 2019. Ekeler surprisingly only hauled in one reception in Week 1 but rushed for 84 yards on 19 carries. The Chargers will need to run the ball well in Week 2 to kill […]


Tyrod Taylor Has A Tough Week 2 Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Tyrod Taylor is set up for a tough battle in Week 2 against the Chiefs, who contained quarterback Deshaun Watson and the Texans in Week 1. Taylor wasn’t bad, but he also wasn’t great in Week 1. The dual-threat quarterback rushed six times for only seven yards and threw for 208 yards in […]


Sammy Watkins Has A Lot To Live Up To

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins continued his streak of having a dominant Week 1 against the Houston Texans in his opening game, but he's unlikely to match that production in Week 2. Watkins put together a strong line of seven catches, 82 yards and a touchdown in Week 1, but he will face […]


Travis Kelce Has Struggled Versus Chargers In His Career

Despite being arguably the best tight end option in the league, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has generally struggled versus the Chargers. Kelce will go up against the Chargers on Sunday, but he has never eclipsed the 100-yard mark and only owns one touchdown in his 12 career games against the division rivals. Kelce […]


Tyreek Hill Draws Tough Matchup Versus Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill will look for better results against the Chargers in Week, 2 as they are a team that has generally shut the star receiver down. Hill does own five touchdowns against the Chargers, but he has only had one game with over 100 yards in eight career matchups. With […]


Clyde Edwards-Helaire Seeks To Improve In Short Yardage

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire will look to build off a dominant debut in Week 1. Edwards-Helaire received 66.7% of the snaps given to the run game in Week 1. Darrel Williams is likely to operate as the third down back for now, but it appears to be the rookie’s job to lose. […]


Patrick Mahomes Looks To Continue Success Against Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is in for a tasty treat in a matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Mahomes is coming off of a three touchdown performance on Thursday versus the Texans and will look to keep the momentum going. Arguably the best fantasy quarterback, Mahomes faces a Chargers team that […]


Jon Lester Allows Two Runs

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jon Lester put together his second straight solid start. The veteran has really struggled this year, but threw five innings and gave up two runs on Wednesday. He also gave up four hits, one walk and recorded a strikeout. Lester edits the start with a no-decision and has now lowered his […]


Lucas Giolito Suffers Third Loss

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito suffered his third loss of the season on Wednesday against the Minnesota Twins. Giolito did record a quality start with six innings under his belt. The All-Star allowed three hits, three runs, three walks and four strikeouts in that span. Giolito now owns a 3.53 ERA heading into […]


Jeremy Jeffress Blows Save

Chicago Cubs closer Jeremy Jeffress entered Tuesday’s game with a 0.98 ERA, but he blew the save against the Indians. Jeffress allowed two walks and one hit, which was a two-run shot by Francisco Lindor to tie the game. Jeffress has been having a great season as the Cubs closer, and fantasy managers shouldn’t be […]


Javier Baez Swipes Two Bases

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two runs scored and a pair of stolen bases on Tuesday versus the Indians. Baez has been a big disappointment this season but has started to string together some good games. In his last three games, Baez has four hits with five runs scored. […]


Yu Darvish Gives Up Nine Hits

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher and Cy Young candidate Yu Darvish allowed nine hits, three runs, one walk and struck out seven. It wasn’t his best start of the season, but he pitched well enough for a chance to get the victory prior to Jeremy Jeffress blowing the save in the ninth. Darvish now owns a […]


Dane Dunning Continues To Impress

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dane Dunning put together another strong performance in a tough matchup versus the Twins on Tuesday. Dunning has been excellent since gaining the trust of the big league club and he looks like he is here to stay. Dunning went seven innings and allowed three hits, two runs (one earned), […]


Dylan Cease Shaky On Monday

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dylan Cease struggled to find the strike zone on Monday against the Twins. Cease allowed five walks on the evening and lasted just 4 2/3 innings. Cease also allowed five hits, one run and recorded four strikeouts. Although the command wasn’t there on Monday, Cease still holds a solid 3.20 […]


Alec Mills Throws No-Hitter

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Alec Mills threw a no-hitter on Sunday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Mills did allow three walks, but also struck out five. The right-hander has been a very nice surprise for the Cubs this season and has held his own since earning the fifth rotation spot out of camp. Mills is now […]


Nick Madrigal Sitting On Sunday

Chicago White Sox second baseman Nick Madrigal will be on the bench Sunday against the Tigers. The rookie has been a hitting machine since being returning from the injured list with a shoulder machine. He is hitting .362 with seven RBI on the season and will be replaced by Danny Mendick. Mendick will bat eighth […]


Luis Robert Resting On Sunday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert will get a rare day off on Sunday versus the Tigers. Robert has been in a bit of slump recently with just four hits in his last 25 at-bats. Jarrod Dyson will replace Robert and bat ninth. He can be avoided in all formats. Robert remains one of the […]


Mike Williams Not Expected To Suit Up For Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (shoulder) is not expected to suit up on Sunday against the Bengals in Week 1. Williams hurt his shoulder early in camp and was limited in practice throughout the week. Williams is coming off of a strong season with 89 catches and 1001 yards, but has downgraded at […]


Tim Anderson Picks Up Four Hits

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson continues his career year with a 4-for-5 outing against the Tigers on Saturday. Anderson also scored twice and drove in a run. The shortstop had an injured groin earlier in the season, but has been on fire when he’s been on the field. He is now hitting a ridiculous […]


Reynaldo Lopez Picks Up First Victory

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Reynaldo Lopez filled in for Dallas Keuchel (back) and put together his best start of the season on Saturday against the Detroit Tigers. Lopez was recently demoted after an awful start to 2020. Lopez responded on Saturday by going five innings and allowing three hits, zero runs, one walk and […]


Jose Abreu States Case For MVP With Seven RBI Night

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu continues to state his case for MVP with another strong performance on Saturday. The slugger went 4-for-4 with a walk, five runs scored, seven RBI and a pair of dingers versus the division rival Detroit Tigers. Abreu has been absolutely on fire this season and the strong outing […]


Jason Heyward Plays Hero On Saturday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward played hero for the Cubs on Saturday night versus the Milwaukee Brewers. With the Cubs down 2-0 in the top of the ninth inning, Heyward took Josh Hader deep with a three-run blast to put the Cubs on top. The Cubs offense as a whole has been a disappointment this […]


Kyle Hendricks Has Strong Outing

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher put together a strong outing on Saturday against the Brewers. The Professor went 7 2/3 innings and allowed six hits, two runs, zero walks and struck out seven. Hendricks fell victim to a two-run homer by Ryan Braun, but was on his game otherwise. Hendricks now owns a cool 3.29 ERA […]


Craig Kimbrel Snags Second Save

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Craig Kimbrel picked up his second save of the season on Saturday versus the Brewers. Kimbrel has really struggled this year and Jeremy Jeffress who has been acting as the teams closer was unavailable, because he’s pitched in three of the last four days. Kimbrel started the inning by allowing a […]
