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!

Cleveland Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase continued doing what he does, picking up his 37th save of the season versus the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday.

Zebby Matthews Collects Victory In MLB Debut

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Zebby Matthews picked up his first victory in his big-league debut on Tuesday versus the Kansas City Royals.

[…]


Jake Burger Continues Power Surge

Miami Marlins corner infielder Jake Burger continued his hot hitting on Tuesday versus the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies. Burger went 1-for-4 on the night with a walk and a solo home run.

Between both clubs in High-A, Chace […]


Camilo Doval Blows Fifth Save

San Francisco Giant closer Camilo Doval fell victim to his fifth blown save against the Washington Nationals on Thursday.

Charlie Morton Struggles Versus Brewers

Luis Matos Demoted To Double-A

Sebastian Walcott Flying Under The Radar In High-A

Texas Rangers infield prospect Sebastian Walcott continued his hot hitting on Wednesday for High-A Hickory.

Donovan Solano Knocks In Four Runs In Victory

Making a rare start, San Diego Padres infielder Donovan Solano went 4-for-5 with four singles and four RBI in Tuesday's victory versus the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Bryce Elder Gets Rocked In Loss

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Bryce Elder was hit hard in Tuesday's loss versus the Milwaukee Brewers. The former All-Star only last 3 2/3 innings, in which he allowed eight hits, seven runs, two walks and struck out six.
