Darren Waller Dominates In Win

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller was dominant against the Saints, catching 12 balls for 103 yards and a touchdown on a whopping 16 targets. The Saints had absolutely no answer for Waller. He is too big and strong for safeties and cornerbacks and too fast for linebackers, so he is a matchup nightmare […]

Josh Jacobs Rushes For 88 Yards

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs picked up 88 yards on 27 carries in a win against the Saints. The Saints have one of the best defenses in the league, so yards did not come easy for Jacobs. It was not the best fantasy day, considering he was not heavily utilized in the passing […]

Adam Ottavino Tosses Scoreless Inning

New York Yankees relief pitcher Adam Ottavino threw a scoreless inning with no baserunners allowed and two strikeouts against the Blue Jays on Monday. Two poor outings from earlier this season have pushed Ottavino’s ERA up to 6.06 for the season even with Monday’s strong performance, but his swinging-strike rate is down at 8.5%, in […]

Derek Carr Throws Three Touchdowns In Win

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr had an impressive performance against the Saints, throwing for 282 yards and three touchdowns in a Monday night victory. Carr showed his efficiency once again, completing 73 percent of his passes and not throwing an interception. The Saints have a solid defense, so this was an encouraging performance from […]

Michael King Struggles On Monday

New York Yankees pitcher Michael King allowed five runs over only 2 2/3 innings against the Blue Jays on Monday. A third inning that saw the Blue Jays string together four hits did King in, leading to reliever Jonathan Loaisiga coming in and allowing two of King’s runners to score. Despite his poor results, King […]

Jeff McNeil Drives In Lone Run For The Mets In Loss

New York Mets third baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil went 2-for-4 with an RBI in the Mets' 2-1 loss to the Rays on Monday. McNeil was a bright spot in an otherwise lethargic Mets' offense on Monday.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/22/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

We head into Saturday night with an 11 game slate on tap. Quite the slate without clear aces on the mound, you know it is interesting when Zach Davies is the most expensive pitcher. There are bats for days and a lot of the top options cost quite a bit of money. There will have […]

Jacob deGrom Remains In National League Cy Young Race

New York Mets starting pitcher Jacob deGrom was solid on Monday against the Tampa Bay Rays, striking out 14 hitters over seven innings of work in the Mets 2-1 loss. deGrom, pitching for the first time since having to leave a start last Wednesday after only two innings pitched with a right hamstring spasm, was […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Nobody was expecting a lot from Tre'Quan Smith came Week 1 and that is precisely what he did, a bunch of nothing.

Devonta Freeman (RB, FA) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 16% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This might be the only time I have written a waiver wire post about a still-available free agent. That's correct. Freeman is still out there without a signed contract and could end anywhere... or nowhere. That being said, the latest news related to […]

Luis Castillo Strikes Out Nine Brewers

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Luis Castillo pitched well in a 6-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday.

San Francisco Giants starting Johnny Cueto turned in a poor outing in Monday's 7-2 loss to the Rockies. Cueto pitched 4 1/3 innings, allowing seven runs on eight hits (including a solo home run) and three walks with four strikeouts. The veteran just hasn't been able to return to his former self and now owns […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/22/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

It may officially be playoff push time around MLB, but that hasn’t stopped clubs from starting a wide array of talent Tuesday. Back in July, if you could have predicted a slate where the trio of Zach Davies, Framber Valdez, and Brady Singer were the top three starting pitchers in terms of salary, you’re likely […]

Wil Lutz Makes Lone Field Goal

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz connected on his only field-goal attempt and made three extra points in the Week 2 loss to the Raiders. Lutz didn't get to try for many field goals considering the Saints offense capitalized with touchdowns when they were in the red zone. As part of a high-octane offense, Lutz […]

Jared Cook Only Manages 13 Yards

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook only managed two receptions for 13 yards on five targets in the Week 2 loss to the Raiders. After coming off an 80-yard performance in Week 1, the tight end was certainly disappointing. Nevertheless, with Michael Thomas sidelined, he should still see a decent number of targets and […]

Marco Gonzales Stellar On Monday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Marco Gonzales threw eight shutout innings, allowing seven hits and one walk while striking out six hitters in Monday's win over the Astros. Gonzales has been a steal this season and has quietly been one of the most consistent pitchers in baseball. He will end this season with a 7-2 record, […]

Emmanuel Sanders Musters Only One Catch

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders only managed one reception for 18 yards on three targets in the Week 2 loss to the Raiders. It was certainly a disappointing performance for the temporary WR1 of the Saints as Drew Brees even eclipsed 300 passing yards. Sanders will look to get back on track in […]

Tre'Quan Smith Gets 86 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith came through in the Week 2 loss to Las Vegas, getting five receptions for 86 yards on seven targets. With Michael Thomas sidelined, it was only natural to see Smith see some more targets and he delivered with a great performance. He should see some targets as long […]

Alvin Kamara Stuffs The Stat Sheet

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara had a tremendous performance in the Week 2 loss to the Raiders, getting 13 carries for 79 yards and two touchdowns along with leading the team with nine receptions for 95 yards on nine targets. The absence of Michael Thomas thrust Kamara into a huge role and he […]

Drew Brees Goes For 312 Yards

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees went 26-for-38 and put up 312 yards, one touchdown, and one pick in the loss to the Raiders on Monday. After a hot start, the Saints cooled down and the offense couldn't get going deeper into the game. It was obvious the absence of Michael Thomas was felt, but […]

Kyle Schwarber Drives In Two On Monday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles on Monday against the Pirates. Schwarber was benched on Sunday and he responded in a big way. The outfielder also scored a run and drove in two on the evening. The slugger hasn’t been much of an asset this season to managers and […]

Jon Lester Strings Together Another Good Start

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jon Lester put together his third straight strong start on Monday against the Pirates. The veteran is now 3-2 after allowing four hits, zero runs, one walk and recording a strikeout over six innings. The veteran has struggled most of the year, but is starting to pitch well down the stretch. […]
