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!

Camilo Doval Tosses Another Scoreless Inning

San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval tossed another scoreless inning in Tuesday's loss versus the Los Angeles Dodgers. Doval allowed two hits in the contest, with no walks or strikeouts.

Shohei Ohtani Adds To Strong Spring With Three More Hits

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani picked up three more hits on Tuesday and continues to swing a scorching hot bat.

Performance has […]

Randy Arozarena Hits First Homer Of Spring

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and walk in Tuesday's Grapefruit League matchup versus the Baltimore Orioles.

Josh Bell Off To Slow Start

Miami Marlins first baseman Josh Bell has been off to a slow start this spring with just three hits and two walks over his first 13 at-bats. To be fair, most of the Marlins hitters have been ice-cold thus far in the Grapefruit League. Bell, 31, was acquired by the Marlins last season at the […]


Jose Siri Knocks In A Pair

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri went 1-for-2 with two RBI versus the Philadelphia Phillies in Thursdays Grapefruit League contest.

The 28-year-old was once one the better starting pitchers in the league, but injuries have […]


J.P. Crawford Draws A Pair Of Walks

He is now hitless with three walks over his first nine at-bats this spring. Crawford is coming off his best season by far in his seven-year career […]


Jordan Walker Blasts First Homer Of Spring

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursdays Grapefruit League matchup versus the Houston Astros. The 21-year-old has been off to a slow start in his first 21 at-bats with that being his only homer to accompany three RBI, but there should be little concern from managers. At […]


Kyle Harrison Having An Impressive Spring

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Kyle Harrison was dominant in Thursdays Cactus League outing against the Los Angeles Dodgers. His outing was cut short due to rain, but the left-hander went 2 2/3 innings and allowed two hits, zero runs, two walks and struck out six. The highly touted 22-year-old made his big-league debut this […]


Michael Busch Blasts First Homer As Cub

Chicago Cubs infielder Michael Busch went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer off of Hunter Greene against the Cincinnati Reds in Thursdays Cactus League matchup. The round-tripper would be the first of the spring for the Top-100 prospect. He is now hitting .250 with one homer, two RBI and two stolen bases over his first 16 […]


Spencer Steer Blasts First Homer Of Spring

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Spencer Steer went 1-for-3 with his first homer of the Cactus League on Thursday against the Chicago Cubs.

Francisco Alvarez Blasts Second Homer Of Spring

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Alvarez when 1-for-2 with a two-run blast in Thursdays Grapefruit League contest versus the Washington Nationals.

No Guarantee Gavin Lux Is Dodgers Shortstop

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Gavin Lux has experienced issues throwing in his recovery from a torn ACL and that has led to the club being noncommittal to him as their starting shortstop. Heading into the spring, the Dodgers were convinced that the Wisconsin native would be their everyday shortstop, but now it is no sure […]


Ryan McMahon Enjoying A Strong Start To Spring

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon has been off to a nice start in the Cactus League with a .429 batting average to go along with four runs, one homer and two RBI. McMahon has been one of the few staples for the Rockies over the past few seasons and has hit a minimum of […]


Mitch Haniger Continues Hot Spring

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger has been off to a hot start in his second go around with the club. On Tuesday, Haniger went 1-for-2 with a walk and solo home run. In his return to the Mariners, the 33-year-old has already hit two homers with three RBI over just eight at-bats. The veteran is […]


Esteury Ruiz Yet To Swipe Bag In Spring

Oakland Athletics outfielder Esteury Ruiz swiped 67 bags in 2023, but has yet to attempt a steal over his first eight Cactus League contests. Despite that, he's hitting a healthy .294 with one homer, one RBI and three runs. Ruiz is one of the few attractive A's players from a fantasy perspective and managers shouldn't […]


Jackson Holliday Heats Up With Three Hits

Baltimore Orioles infield prospect Jackson Holliday went 3-for-4 with a single, double and a triple in Tuesday's 3-2 Grapefruit League victory against the Philadelphia Phillies. It was a breakout game for the 20-year-old and reminder of why he is arguably the top prospect in the game. Holliday is just two years removed from being selected […]


Bailey Ober Enjoying Nice Spring

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober has made two starts in the Grapefruit League this spring and been very impressive. In two starts thus far, Ober has allowed five runs (one earned), three hits, two walks and struck out 10. Seven of those 10 K's were in his most recent outing. Ober, 28, has had […]


Quinn Priester Trying To Break Camp

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Quinn Priester allowed one run on two hits with one walk and one strikeout against the Toronto Blue Jays in Tuesday's Grapefruit League contest. The 23-year-old came on in relief in this contest but will remain in a starting role, either for the Pirates or in Triple-A. Priester entered last season […]


Willy Adames Triples In Loss

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames went 1-for-3 in Tuesday's Cactus League loss versus the San Francisco Giants. His lone hit was a triple and he also knocked in one run. Adames was a name that was and is rumored to be available as he has an expiring contract after this season. The 28 year-old had […]


Devin Williams Hit Hard

Milwaukee Brewers closer Devin Williams got rocked in a relief appearance against the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday. The All-Star closer entered in the bottom of the fourth inning and only lasted 1/3 of an inning. In his outing, he gave up two hits, four runs, two walks and one strikeout. It was just his […]


Ryan Pepiot Hit Hard In Second Spring Outing

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Ryan Pepiot got hit hard during Tuesday's Cactus League matchup versus the Boston Red Sox.
