Shohei Ohtani Goes Yard Monday Night

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter/starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani smoked a first-inning home run off of New York Yankees starting pitcher Michael King in a 5-3 win Monday. In Ohtani's debut at Yankee Stadium, he smashed his 26th homer of the season with an exit velocity of 117.2 mph – the hardest-hit homer by an Angels […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (6/29/21): MLB DFS Lineups

We have a 15-game main slate on tap tonight, and there should be hitting for days. There is also pitching for days tonight. Some aces headline the way with Woodruff, Ray, Walker Buehler, and others. Finding the right combo of pitchers will obviously be key, but there will also be some great pivots based on […]

Mookie Betts Beginning To Warm Up

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts went 2-for-3 with a walk and solo home run in Monday's victory versus the San Francisco Giants. Betts took Anthony DeSclafani deep in the top of the first inning for his 10th home run. Betts hasn't been putting up the numbers that managers expected coming into the season, but […]

Spencer Howard Yanked In Third Inning Again

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Spencer Howard allowed four hits and two runs in 2 1/3 innings pitched in a no-decision versus the Reds. Howard has completed the third inning just once in his last three starts and is yet to record an out in the fifth inning this season. The 24-year-old has been excellent the […]

Dominic Smith With Two Hits On Monday

New York Mets first baseman/outfielder Dominic Smith went 2-for-4 with a run scored in the Mets 8-4 loss to the Nationals on Monday. Smith's two hits were a welcome sight to the Mets and fantasy managers where he had been just 3-for-19 over his last six games. It has been a tough season so far […]

Pete Alonso Belts 12th Home Run On Monday

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in the Mets 8-4 loss to the Nationals on Monday. It was Alonso's twelfth homer of the season, though his first since June 20. With a batting average of .458 over his last seven games, and solid power metrics including an […]

Freddy Peralta Tosses Another Quality Start Against Cubs

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta allowed two earned runs on two hits and four walks while striking out eight across six innings in the win over the Cubs on Monday. He did not factor into the decision. Peralta allowed a two-run home run to Ian Happ in the first inning. After settling in, he […]

Bobby Bradley Has Two Hits Monday Night

Cleveland Indians first baseman Bobby Bradley went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Monday night's 13-5 win over the Detroit Tigers. It was nice to see Bradley get back into a rhythm last night as he had been struggling a bit by collecting just three hits in his previous 10 games before […]

Eddie Rosario Knocks In Two Monday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Eddie Rosario went 1-for-3 with a double and two RBI in Monday night's 13-5 win over the Detroit Tigers. Rosario hit a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the first to drive in one and followed that up with an RBI double in the bottom of the sixth. Rosario has warmed up […]

Cesar Hernandez Collects Three Hits Monday

Cleveland Indians second baseman Cesar Hernandez went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored, and an RBI in Monday night's 13-5 win over the Detroit Tigers. Hernandez had been in a bit of a funk as he had just three hits since June 19th before this game, but perhaps he will start to come out […]

Jose Ramirez Has Huge Night Monday

Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez went 3-for-5 with a double, two-run home run, and five RBI in Monday night's 13-5 win over the Detroit Tigers. Ramirez had been hampered a bit by a foot injury over the past week and that could have played a role in him having just two hits in his […]

Eli Morgan Struggles Monday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Eli Morgan allowed four earned runs on six hits while striking out four across his five innings of work in a 13-5 win over the Detroit Tigers. It was the second consecutive start in which Morgan allowed four earned runs across five innings pitched and he will end the month with […]

Kramer Hickok Could Contend Again at Detroit

In two of the last three tournaments, Kramer Hickok has held it together and the results speak for themselves. He finished second at the Travelers with all four rounds in the 60's. That included a Sunday 67 where Hickok made no major mistakes. Since the American Express Championship in January, it has been an awful […]

Adam Hadwin Still Expected to be All Over the Place at Detroit

Adam Hadwin's game literally can change from hole to hole at times. Where he maintained a level head at the Charles Schwab and U.S. Open, he lost it at the Travelers as Hadwin missed the cut on an easier course. He can putt great but approaching the green has been a mighty struggle the last […]

Emiliano Grillo Wildcard Pick at Detroit

Emiliano Grillo is an intriguing golfer to look at for the Detroit course. Can he build off that 65 at the Travelers from last Friday? That is the question. His biggest problem, like most golfers this year, has been consistency. That 65 was preceded by a 74 last Thursday which felt more like a 77 […]

Lanto Griffin Not Expected to be in Detroit Mix

Lanto Griffin made the cut at the Travelers Championship then proceeded to just hover around 70th place all weekend. He did not perform well at all after a Friday 67 helped him see Saturday. Even at the US Open, Griffin missed too many shots which caused some crooked rounds. That did not happen as much […]

Lucas Glover May Bounce Back at Detroit

Lucas Glover's putter failed him last week at the Palmetto Championship. He could not recover after an opening-round 76. Ultimately, he missed the cut. The frustrating part for Glover is this. He puts some rounds together and then there are a few holes where shots go wayward and then instantly a good round goes bad. […]

Rickie Fowler Roller Coaster Could Continue at Detroit

It seems like Rickie Fowler has a couple of up tournaments followed by some down ones. Then, this becomes rinse and repeat. He finished in a tie for 8th and 11th at two of the more challenging events on tour (PGA and The Memorial). Then, he misses the cut with a Friday 75 at The […]

Bryson DeChambeau Still Trying to Find Top Form at Detroit

Bryson DeChambeau is still looking for that form like he had when he won the Arnold Palmer in March. His long game is still there and he drives the ball best on tour at 322.4 yards. However, that driver has let him down more often than not lately as he ranks 186th in driving accuracy […]

Jason Day Could Contend at Detroit This Week

When Jason Day is healthy, he is one of the ten best golfers in the world. The problem is that has not happened often. Day took a month off between tournaments and finished in the top ten at the Travelers Championship. He put together four solid rounds including a spectacular 62 on Friday where Day […]

Cameron Champ Not Expected to be Factor at Detroit

If it feels like Cameron Champ has skipped the last month or so on tour, it is because he more or less has. The golfer has missed cuts or withdrawn from the last four tournaments. This followed a span where he made four straight cuts. Champ cannot string rounds together often. Even at the Masters […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (6/29/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Tonight all we have is Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals. Trae Young has a bone bruise in his foot, so his status wont be known until closer to tipoff. That alone doesn't mean much since I wasn't going to use Trae anyway, but if he's out it will make Lou Williams a lock. […]

Rafa Cabrera Bello Could Have Short Stay at Detroit

The Rocket Mortgage Writer Tournament could be unkind to Rafa Cabrera Bello this week. Fortunately, this is a shorter course at just over 7300 yards. Cabrera Bello barely drives the ball over 287 yards but is 52nd in driving accuracy (64.4%). The problem is he cannot hit a green in regulation. The golfer ranks just […]

Keegan Bradley Not Putting Well, Could Be Trouble at Detroit

Keegan Bradley can be almost an all-or-nothing golfer. Consider that he finished in the top-20 at the PGA Championship then followed that up by missing two straight cuts. When one misses the Travelers' Championship cut, that raises some red flags. He ranks 186th in putting (-.486 strokes gained). Again, everything else about his game is […]
