Rougned Odor Having Another Slow Start

Texas Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor has done nothing in 2020 to prove his doubters wrong. The left-handed hitter is slashing .128/.209/. 231 to begin the year while his competition is at least performing adequately. There were mumblings that Odor's time at second base me be coming to an end during spring training, but he […]

Kyle Gibson Gives Up Four Runs At Home

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kyle Gibson was not at his best on Monday night, and the Seattle Mariners made him pay. In a 10-2 loss to open the series, Gibson allowed nine hits, four earned runs, one walk, and one home run while striking out two. It was the first bad start of the 2020 […]

Whether owners will get a true “complete” slate at any stage in 2020 as the league adjusts to the COVID-19 pandemic on the fly remains to be seen, but Tuesday is a close microcosm of what a packed house main slate will look like. In addition to having to combat Coors Field, Max Scherzer and […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (8/11/20): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

Monday didn't go so great for us here at RotoBaller when it comes to the WNBA. We invested too heavily in the Atlanta Dream, who got blown out by Connecticut after star rookie Chennedy Carter went down with an ankle injury. Speaking of which, THERE ARE TOO MANY ANKLES INJURIES IN THE WNBA THIS YEAR. […]

Drew Pomeranz Tapped For Save Monday

San Diego Padres reliever Drew Pomeranz breezed to his third save Monday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, retiring the side in order. Although incumbent closer Kirby Yates has struggled with a 10.38 ERA, it’s possible Pomeranz was tapped to face Dodgers lefty Max Muncy to start the frame and stayed to finish the contest. While […]

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager went 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in Monday's win over the Rangers.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis went 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI, two runs and a walk in Monday's win over the Rangers. Lewis has been hot since the season started and has been showing no signs of cooling off lately as he has reached base in all but one game this season. Lewis […]

Justin Dunn Goes Six In Win Monday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Justin Dunn gave up two runs on seven hits and three walks over six innings in Monday's win over the Rangers. This was definitely the best start of the season for Dunn, but it still left a lot to be desired. It's great that Dunn was able to secure a win […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (8/11/20): NBA DFS Lineups

The final week of regular season in the bubble is underway and we have already seen a few teams mathematically eliminated from playoffs. We still have a few days before the eliminated teams will be leaving the bubble for good and this could be a good opportunity to find some hidden gems.  Even the bubble […]

Didi Gregorius Launches Grand Slam

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Didi Gregorius went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in a rout of the Braves on Monday. The Phillies launched five home runs on the night and Gregorius had the biggest, clearing the bases to put the Phillies up 9-1 in the second inning. Gregorius is off to a good start this season […]

Bryce Harper Has Big Night Vs Braves

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper had a huge night Monday, leading the charge in a rout of the Braves. Harper took Braves starter Sean Newcomb deep in the first inning for a three run homer and the Phillies never looked back en route to 13 runs. On the night, Harper went 2-for-3 with three runs […]

Alex Smith Could Compete For Starting Job

At one point, it looked like Washington quarterback Alex Smith would never step onto a football field again after a devastating leg injury in 2018, but head coach Ron Rivera says that if Smith is healthy, he'll have a chance to compete for the starting job. That's bad news for second-year passer Dwayne Haskins, who […]

Danny Mendick Picks Up Three Hits

Chicago White Sox infielder Danny Mendick went 3-for-4 with a triple on Monday versus the Detroit Tigers. Mendick has hit a respectable .303 in limited action this year and is now the everyday second baseman with Nick Madrigal (shoulder) sidelined. Mendick isn’t likely to have long term value and is best suited in DFS.

Packers Claim Travis Fulgham

The Green Bay Packers have claimed wide receiver Travis Fulgham off waivers from the Detroit Lions. A sixth-round pick out of Old Dominion last season, Fulgham appeared in three games for Detroit, playing 42 offensive snaps against Green Bay in December but not recording a target. With Devin Funchess opting out and a top-heavy receiving […]

Dallas Keuchel Suffers Loss In Quality Start

Chicago White Sox pitcher Dallas Keuchel recorded a quality start on Monday, but suffered his second loss in the process. Over six inning against the Tigers, Keuchel allowed six hits, three runs, two walks and had four strikeouts. The veteran lefty is now 2-2 with his new squad and will look for his third victory […]

Aaron Nola Twirls Gem Vs Braves

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola allowed one run in eight stellar innings as he picked up his first in of the season Monday vs the Braves. Nola allowed just two hits and a walk while striking out 10 in the dominant effort. The right-hander has double digit strikeouts in back-to-back outings while lowering his […]

Sony Michel's Status Still Uncertain

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (foot) isn't a lock to be recovered by Week 1, putting a major question mark beside the back who most expected to lead this New England backfield in rushing attempts. The team signed veteran Lamar Miller as insurance on Monday, further complicating things and suggesting that Michel's injury […]

Patriots Sign Lamar Miller

The New England Patriots have signed former Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller to a one-year deal. Miller missed all of 2019 after tearing his ACL and MCL in preseason, but the veteran back has shown some explosiveness in the past and adds important insurance to this backfield, especially with Sony Michel (foot) not a […]

Steven Matz Torched By Nationals On Monday

New York Mets starting pitcher Steven Matz was absolutely lit up by the Nationals on Monday over 4 1/3 innings pitched. On the same day teammate Marcus Stroman opted-out of the 2020 season, Matz allowed eight hits including three home runs, eight earned runs, and walked one, while striking out five. Matz has now given […]

Jordan Clarkson Drills Five Threes In 14 Minutes

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson scored 18 points with five treys in just 14 minutes of a 122-114 loss to the Mavericks. It's a shame that Utah was resting their best players in this one, including Clarkson, because he was red-hot. He doesn't provide much more other than points and threes, but he's very solid […]

J.J. Barea Scores 18 With Eight Dimes

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea scored 18 points with eight assists and two triples in 26 minutes on Monday. Barea filled in at point guard for Luka Doncic (ankle) and ran the offense masterfully, helping to lead his team to a victory. The 36-year-old may not be the most attractive fantasy option, but take a […]

FanDuel, DraftKings NHL DFS Lineup Picks (8/11/20): Daily Fantasy Hockey Advice

The bracket of 16 is set as the Stanley Cup playoffs begin! Tuesday features four first-round matchups featuring  Carolina-Boston along with Chicago squaring off against Vegas. Remember, when looking around for plays, an over/under of 6 dictates offense, but an over/under of 5 or sometimes 5.5 tilts towards the goalies. There are several games at […]

Boban Marjanovic Scores 20 In 25 Minutes

Dallas Mavericks center Boban Marjanovic scored 20 points with nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal in 25 minutes. Marjanovic filled in for Kristaps Porzingis (knee) and looked the part as he also drained all six of his free-throw attempts. The 31-year-old rarely plays, but his gigantic size makes him an impossible matchup […]

Seth Curry Bounces Back With 22 Points

Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry was extremely efficient in a bounceback performance on Monday, knocking down 8 of 11 field-goal attempts and 4 of 6 three-point attempts for 22 points. This comes after Curry had just two points against Milwaukee on Saturday. Of course, it helps that the team was without the services of Luka […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Leads The Way With 27 Points

Dallas Mavericks forward Tim Hardaway Jr. picked up the slack without Luka Doncic (ankle) and Kristaps Porzingis (knee) in a 122-114 victory over the Jazz. Hardaway Jr. scored a game-high 27 points with four assists, three rebounds and three triples in 34 minutes. It was a much-needed performance for the 28-year-old, who scored just 16 […]

Cameron Johnson Sinks Four Triples In Win

Phoenix Suns forward Cameron Johnson poured in 18 points on 6 of 11 shooting from the field. Johnson has played the small-ball four role for Phoenix in the bubble and it has largely worked. The 24-year-old has maintained his level of shooting from beyond the arc while getting more rebound and block opportunities in the […]
