NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 - Monkey Knife Fight

On Sunday, the NASCAR Cup Series heads to Texas Motor Speedway. or as I like to call it "that racetrack that's like 20 minutes from my apartment."

Universal DH Beneficiaries - RBI

With the advent of the designated hitter in the National League for 2020, NL lineup production will go up; it's inevitable. Pitchers will have a harder time of things in the NL, and hitters will produce more. It's what happens when a near-zero at the plate is replaced by a Major League hitter. Where that […]

Relief Pitchers to Target in 2020 Drafts

The pitching landscape in 2020 is going to be an odd one, as most teams' starting pitchers are not going to be fully built up in time for the season to start. Some teams have even already announced that their starters may not go more than four innings to start the year, and openers could […]

Closers and Saves Report: Summer Camp Edition 2 - Handcuffs

It's a whole new ball game. Literally. Baseball is going to be weird this season, folks. Only 60 games. (Almost?) all in the same time zone. Tons of games against the same teams. The DH everywhere. Empty stadiums. Cardboard cutouts. Artificial crowd noise. 30-man rosters for a while. Then 28-man rosters for another while. It's […]

Divisional Adjustments: Pitchers On the Rise

After some painfully-long negotiations, the MLB season will begin in late July with a 60-game season. For the general fan and for us in the fantasy community, the length of the schedule is less than ideal, but I think we can all agree that some baseball is better than no baseball. The abbreviated season will […]

LCK & LPL DFS Picks for 7/19/20: DraftKings, FanDuel League of Legends Daily Fantasy

Despite seeing reasons to back nearly every team on the slate sticking to the TLDR picks of Gen/KT/IG/BLG led to a profitable night, didn't have enough IG as they trolled their way to victory again. I’m going to keep riding and sticking with the numbers and picks I've got and wait for the variance to […]

Players With Misleading Numbers Worth Reconsidering in 2020

When it comes down to facing a fantasy draft, two numbers are often the most sought after by fantasy GMs: current ADP and overall rank from the prior season. No matter how experienced fantasy players are, those two numbers are thought of as the ultimate all-encompassing representations of every football player's value. Knowing what he […]

Updated Pitcher Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Mixed Leagues (July)

As if preseason rankings and projections weren't fickle enough already... Now, we are presented with a delayed, shortened season that has already seen several players opt out while others are uncertain to return after testing positive for COVID-19.

The COVID Conundrum - To Drop or Not to Drop?

So….real, actual baseball games are almost upon us. Opening Day is July 23rd. And yet, we are still in the midst of a pandemic. At the time of my writing this, by my calculations, at least 90 players have had COVID-19 or have gone through the COVID Protocol due to players being traced back to […]

Engel's Angles: Players To Avoid in 2020 by Round

Recently I shared my favorite fantasy football draft targets by round.  You cannot plan ahead to land every ideal player you like best in any draft. Yet you can make sure there are players you can steer clear of. So now I supply my 2020 listing of fantasy football players I would rather not have […]

Damien Harris is the Answer at RB for New England

As it currently stands, the New England Patriots' backfield is a mess. For the most part, this is more-so by design rather than personnel. The Patriots run one of the heaviest split backfields in the NFL from year-to-year. We would be in the right to call Bill Belichick a "Running Backs Don't Matter" truther, save […]

To any reader who thinks they don't have a voice here at RotoBaller, let it be known that this article came from a simple Reddit comment about how those seeking Saves+Holds reliever ranks were often overlooked.

NASCAR Truck Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Texas Vankor 250 (7/18/20)

Like the Xfinity Series race earlier in the day, Saturday's NASCAR Truck Series race at Texas Motor Speedway will feature the return of Kyle Busch to the series.

DraftKings MMA, UFC DFS Lineup Picks - Figueiredo vs. Benavidez 2 (UFC Fight Night)

If you know something about UFC's head honcho, Dana White, it is that he's a stubborn man. Back when COVID-19 hit for the first time, he was determined to keep the promotion going, even claiming that he had secured an island to hold some cards. It didn't end up happening, but at least White and […]

EPL Betting Picks (7/18/20 & 7/19/20) - English Premier League Soccer Wagers

Following a good weekend, the weekday slate has been a slight struggle. Wednesday saw us one goal away in three games from all correct scores and all picks.
