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!

Ryan Tepera Suspended Three Games

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Ryan Tepera has been suspended three games for throwing behind Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff on Tuesday. Tepera is appealing the suspension and will be able to remain active at the moment. The middle reliever has a 3.86 ERA in 4 2/3 innings this season and doesn't pitch in a […]


Lance Lynn Suffers Tough Loss

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn put together another strong performance on Thursday versus the Cleveland Indians. Lynn suffered a tough loss, but went six innings and allowed five hits, two runs, zero walks and struck out 10 on the afternoon. Lynn was cruising through the first five innings, but gave up a two-run […]


Nick Williams Designated For Assignment

Chicago White Sox outfielder Nick Williams has been designated for assignment. Williams started three games in left field this season and didn't record a hit in 10 at-bats. Williams exit from the White Sox should open up more playing time top hitting prospect Andrew Vaughn. Vaughn has struggled early on, but has shown patience at […]


Tim Anderson Activated From Injured List For Thursday’s Game

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (hamstring) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Thursday versus the Cleveland Indians. The shortstop should be expected to return to the leadoff spot. Anderson has been absent since going down with a left hamstring strain on April 4. When healthy, Anderson is one of the more […]


Nick Madrigal Picks Up Three Hits

Chicago White Sox second baseman Nick Madrigal went 3-for-4 with singles and one RBI in a victory versus the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday night. Madrigal hit .340 in 29 games as a rookie in 2020, but Wednesday was his first multi-hit game of the season. The second baseman is a pure contact hitter, but doesn't […]


Yoan Moncada Drives In Two Runs In Wednesday's Victory

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada went 1-for-4 with a single and two RBI versus the Cleveland Indians in Wednesday's victory. Moncada has been ice cold to start the 2021 campaign and is hitting a weak .186 batting average to go along with a .579 OPS, one home run and four RBI. The bigger […]


Luis Robert Picks Up Two Hits In Victory

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert went 2-for-5 with a double and one RBI on Wednesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Robert has been off to a cold start in his sophomore season and was 3-for-20 entering the contest. Robert is one of the most exciting players in the game, but he will need to break […]


Yermin Mercedes Hits Another Home Run

Chicago White Sox designated hitter Yermin Mercedes continued his strong season by going 3-for-5 with a three-run homer on Wednesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Mercedes has been one of the early feel-good stories this season and he continues to hit on a nightly basis. Mercedes is now hitting an absurd .500 with a 1.383 OPS […]


Carlos Rodon Throws No-Hitter

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon threw a no-hitter on Wednesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Rodon retired the first 25 batters he faced, but Roberto Perez reached base from a hit by pitch. The lefty would then retire Yu Chang and Jordan Luplow to complete the no-hitter. He also recorded seven strikeouts on the […]


Andrew Vaughn Inserted Into White Sox Lineup On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox rookie first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn will start and bat seventh on Wednesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Vaughn is the White Sox top hitting prospect and made the team out of camp, but manager Tony La Russa has limited the rookies play early on with Nick Williams getting three of the last four […]


Yasmani Grandal Will Rest On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal will be on the bench for Wednesday's contest against the Cleveland Indians. Grandal is hitless in his last 11 at-bats and is hitting a weak .154 with one home run and six RBI to open the season. Grandal is sporting a .167 BABIP early on, which isn't encouraging, but […]


Adam Engel Suffers Minor Setback

Chicago White Sox outfielder Adam Engel (hamstring) had a minor setback and said he has had "four or five really good days in a row, making good progress." Engel is hopeful to return from a right hamstring strain for the teams next homestead starting on April 23. The White Sox have struggled in a major […]


Tim Anderson Set To Return On Thursday

Chicago White Sox manager Tony La Russa said on Wednesday that shortstop Tim Anderson (hamstring) is expected to return to the starting lineup on Thursday versus the Cleveland Indians. Anderson has been on the 10-day injured list since April 4 when he strained his left hamstring while running to first base. Anderson started the season […]


Jason Heyward Picks Up Two Hits In Loss

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward went 2-for-3 with a double on Wednesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. It was the veterans first multi-hit game since the second game of the season. The outfielder is now hitting .200 with one home run and two RBI. Heyward hasn't been a useful option for managers for a few seasons […]


Jake Arrieta Suffers First Loss Of 2021

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jake Arrieta picked up his first loss of the season on Wednesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Arrieta went five innings and allowed four hits, three runs, one walk and five strikeouts. Arrieta has looked good in his return to the Cubs and is now 2-1 with a 3.18 ERA. He also […]


Adbert Alzolay Demoted To Alternate Training Site

The Chicago Cubs have demoted starting pitcher Adbert Alzolay to the team's alternative training site. Alzolay won the fifth spot in the rotation during the spring and has made two starts. Alzolay's stuff looked really good against the Brewers on Monday, but with the Cubs dealing with a flurry of relievers on the COVID-19 injured […]


Cubs Designate Tony Wolters For Assignment

The Chicago Cubs have designated catcher Tony Wolters for assignment. Wolters lost his backup job with Austin Romine being activated from the 10-day injured list on Wednesday after returning from a right knee sprain. Wolters made one start went 0-for-4 on the season. Wolters figures to catch on with another club as organizational depth.


Willson Contreras Sitting Out On Wednesday

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras will be on the bench versus the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. Contreras is having a solid season and is hitting .226 with two home runs, five RBI and six runs scored on the season. Contreras will be replaced by Austin Romine. Romine was activated on Wednesday and will see his […]


Kris Bryant Resting On Wednesday

Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant is out of Wednesday's lineup versus the Milwaukee Brewers. It's a routine day off for Bryant, who is having a nice start to the season with a .243 batting average, three home runs and six RBI. Second baseman David Bote will shift to third base and Eric Sogard will […]


Kyle Hendricks Tests Negative For COVID-19

Chicago Cubs manager David Ross spoke after Tuesday's victory and said starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks (illness) tested negative for COVID-19 before getting scratched 30 minutes before his scheduled start on Tuesday night against the Milwaukee Brewers after not feeling well. The Cubs have had four players placed on the COVID-19 injured list and two coaches […]


Liam Hendriks Throws Scoreless Inning

Chicago White Sox closer Liam Hendriks recorded two strikeouts in a scoreless inning on Tuesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Hendriks entered the game with a 0-0 score and looked lights out. The White Sox big free agent acquisition had given up three runs in three outings prior to Tuesday, so tonight's performance was encouraging. Hendriks […]


Lucas Giolito Shines In No-Decision

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito earned a no-decision in a phenomenal start versus Shane Bieber and the Cleveland Indians. Giolito was pulled after walking Roberto Perez to start the top of the eighth inning, but went seven innings and allowed just three hits, zero runs, two walks and struck out eight on the […]


Craig Kimbrel Records Third Save Of 2021

Chicago Cubs closer Craig Kimbrel recorded a four-out save on Tuesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Kimbrel entered the game with two runners out and got Avisail Garcia to ground into a fielders choice. Kimbrel would then start the bottom of the ninth and record the first two outs of the inning, before allowing his first […]


Willson Contreras Crushes Two-Run Blast

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras went 1-for-3 with two runs scored, a hit by pitch and a two-run home run on Tuesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Contreras sent a rocket to left field off of Brent Suter in the top of the eighth to give the Cubs a 3-2 lead at the time and that […]


Alec Mills Allows Two Runs In Spot Start

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Alec Mills filled in on late notice for Kyle Hendricks (illness) and went four innings versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Mills allowed two hits, two runs, zero walks and didn't record a strikeout in the contest. Mills filled in admirably in this contest, but Hendricks will likely be back for his next […]


Kyle Hendricks Scratched From Tuesday's Start

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks (illness) has been scratched from Tuesday's start versus the Milwaukee Brewers due to not feeling well. Swingman Alec Mills will replace Hendricks as the last-minute starter. Mills has pitched well out of the bullpen and performed solid as a starter last year, but should be avoided in DFS on […]


Matt Duffy Placed On COVID-19 Injured List

Chicago Cubs infielder Matt Duffy (COVID-19) has been placed on the COVID-19-related injured list. Duffy will join relievers Brandon Workman, Jason Adam and Dan Winkler who were all placed on the COVID-19 injured list on Monday. Duffy has had limited playing time and is just 1-for-8 on the season. Infielder Ildemaro Vargas will replace Duffy […]


Yermin Mercedes Gets A Day Off

Chicago White Sox designated hitter Yermin Mercedes will get Tuesday off versus the Cleveland Indians. Mercedes has been one of the better stories on this young season, after he started the season 8-for-8. Mercedes is hitting an insane .500 with two home runs and seven RBI on the season. Mercedes will eventually regress with a […]


Adam Eaton Homers In Consecutive Days

Chicago White Sox outfielder Adam Eaton continued his strong season with his second home run in as many days versus the Cleveland Indians on Monday. Eaton's three-run blast was his only hit in four at-bats. Eaton has been a staple at the top of the order thus far for the White Sox and should offer […]


Dallas Keuchel Issues Two More Walks

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dallas Keuchel picked up a no-decision on Monday versus the Cleveland Indians. Keuchel was announced the started about a hour before the game, because scheduled starter Carlos Rodon (illness) was scratched with a stomach bug. The veteran lefty would go five innings on the evening and allowed three hits, three […]
