DraftKings EuroLeague DFS Lineup Picks for 2/26/21 - Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Round 26 finishes off with the smaller four game slate this week. Yesterday I fell victim to Milan rotations with Kevin Punter being a total dud. Mike James busted too, but he was almost 50% owned. I could have made it through that. So is the way it goes in EuroLeague. We're back like Pau […]

Miguel Sano Could See Time At Both Corner Infield Spots

Minnesota Twins first baseman Miguel Sano could also see some time at the hot corner this year.

Alex Kirilloff Getting Reps At First Base

Minnesota Twins outfielder Alex Kirilloff has been getting repetitions at first base during camp.

Luke Voit Looking To Walk More In 2021

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit said that he's focusing on increasing his walk rate for the 2021 season on Thursday. Voit's 7.3% walk rate from last season was one of the only (relative) holes in his game as he led the league in home runs and posted a .948 OPS, and his suppressed […]

Blue Jays Add Pitching Depth With Tommy Milone

Left-hander Tommy Milone signed a minor league contract with the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday that included an invitation to spring training.

Milone hasn't been fantasy relevant for some time although […]

Montana De La Rosa In Need Of A Win

Montana De La Rosa (11-6) has flip-flopped wins and losses in her last four bouts and needs a win on Saturday to avoid a two-fight losing streak. With nine of her 11 wins coming by submission, she faces a similar foe that has used submissions for the majority of her wins as well. It's going […]
