Daily Fantasy Baseball Streamers - MLB Hitter, Pitcher Lineup Picks for Tuesday 9/8

The MLB season is filled with ups and downs, but the key to success is to find some gems to stream! Today we're going to target a pair of Rays at Yankee Stadium!

Are You For Real? Surprising SP Starts from Week 7

Welcome back to "Are You For Real?" Each week, we look at lower-owned starting pitchers who have performed unexpectedly well in their last outing(s). It was another exciting week of surprising starts, and with playoff time already upon us now is when September heroes emerge and become legends, at least in the storied history of […]

Hot Prospects To Watch: Stretch-Run Rookies

Perhaps there's nothing more tantalizing in fantasy baseball than drafting an up-and-coming prospect or rushing to the waiver wire to bid on a Triple-A call-up. With no minor leagues this year, our favorite prospects are now playing on taxi squads, making it difficult for us to fantasize about since we can't get eyes on their […]

H2H Points League Pickups, Waiver Adds: Week 8

How is there only 3.5 weeks left in the major league season? I mean, how is that even possible? Oh yeah, a worldwide pandemic (plus labor strife and inept commisioning) delayed the season by three months. With less than a month to play, that means many of you are currently in your playoffs. And filling […]

2020 Team Defense (DST) Draft Sleepers

If last year proved anything, it's that a top-flight DST can be a league winner. According to ESPN, the Steelers were on 18.4% of league-winning teams, the Ravens on 18.1%, and the juggernaut Patriots DST was on 14.2% of teams. However, as we've seen in seasons past, drafters can oftentimes overreact to a great season […]

Ian Thomas (TE, CAR) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Greg Olsen ruled the tight end roost in Carolina for almost a decade, but now it is Thomas’ time to shine since Olsen took his talents to the Seattle Seahawks during the offseason. Fantasy general managers have avoided Thomas during their drafts this month […]

Randall Cobb (WR, HOU) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Will Fuller and Brandin Cooks will get all the shine in this receiving corps early on, I really, really like Randall Cobb. He'll be the primary slot option for the Texans, serving as the underneath safety valve for Deshaun Watson while the […]

Cole Beasley (WR, BUF) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cole Beasley can be reliable in fantasy depending on the matchup. His first year with Buffalo last season wasn't all that bad as he compiled 67 receptions on 106 targets for 778 yards and six touchdowns. Adding to that, his Week 1 matchup against […]

NBA DFS Cheat Sheet & Expert Lineups for September 8th (Premium Content)

I'll break down each game's top plays with only two contests on Tuesday's playoff slate, as well as my overall strategy for lineup construction on each site (which can vary on FanDuel and DraftKings due to pricing and position eligibility). Miami Heat (-2.5) vs Milwaukee Bucks (218.5 total) The Heat want to continue their surprising […]

Allen Lazard (WR, GB) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 44% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Opportunity is everything in fantasy, right? Lazard has the WR2 role in Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers at QB. I know we've said that to build up other Packer receivers before but this is the guy to watch in 2020. Marquez Valdes-Scantling ranked […]

Derek Carr (QB, LV) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Derek Carr finished his sixth year with the Raiders with arguably the best performance of his career. Carr had his second consecutive season with over 4,000 passing yards. The 29-year-old as had a 21/8 touchdown to interception ratio and set a career-high for […]

Jimmy Garoppolo (QB, SF) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 52% of Leagues ANALYSIS: 2019 marked Jimmy Garoppolo’s first full season as the San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback thanks to an ACL injury. The 28-year-old quarterback completed 69.1 percent of his passes for 3,978 yards and 27 touchdowns with 13 interceptions en route to a 49ers Super […]

Bryce Love (RB, WAS) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While Antonio Gibson became a popular topic following Adrian Peterson‘s release, he was already rostered in over 70% of all leagues when that news was announced. He had become an intriguing roster component due to his unique combination of size (6’2”, 220-pounds), speed […]

Chase Edmonds (RB, ARI) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 44% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Edmonds presents an enticing combination of talent and the opportunity to perform in an Arizona offense that places running backs in a position to thrive. He remains available in over 50%, of all leagues, due to the presence of Kenyan Drake, who begins the […]

Darrynton Evans (RB, TEN) - 2020 Fantasy Football Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It goes without saying Derrick Henry is the workhorse and undisputed RB1 of the Titans. Then, Evans is the clear backup and passing-down back. After that comes... *checks Titans depth chart* Khari Blasingame? Senorise Perry?? Maybe Jeremy McNichols will finally stick with a team??? […]

Mitchell Trubisky (QB, CHI) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I truly believe Trubisky can bounce back and be at least a top-20 fantasy QB, if not a serviceable streamer. First, the Foles factor is vastly overblown. The guy had a great postseason run in Philly but has never succeeded elsewhere and was […]
