Real Talk Raph talks about winning on Fanduel, and discusses RotoBaller's MLB daily league lineup picks and advice on 4/8 for DFS fantasy baseball leagues.

If you subscribed to our daily league lineup picks newsletter this week, and received last night's exclusive list of winners in your inbox, then hopefully you won some of your daily leagues yesterday. Below is a recap of how I used RotoBaller's daily league picks and advice yesterday, an exclusive newsletter subscription that can help you win daily league fantasy baseball (DFS) this season.

 

RotoBaller's Daily Fantasy Baseball (DFS) Lineup Picks: 4/8

For yesterday (4/8), we took our own RotoBaller recommendations and came up with the following lineup:

Real Talk Raph's Fanduel Lineup For 4/8/14

 

Recap & Lineup Analysis for 4/8 (Fanduel)

By Keith Allison on Flickr [CC-BY-SA-2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0)], via Wikimedia CommonsAs you can see, through a little bit of crafty maneuvering and some skillful decision making, we were able to build up a winning lineup (in multiple daily league contests). This Fanduel lineup racked up 54.5 FP using our very own lineup picks to fill up 7 of the 9 total slots.

We looked at the players, the prices and the factors - and set our optimal lineup. You may not be able to squeeze every single pick that we give you into your lineup (nor do we guarantee that every one will be a success on every night), the objective here is to maximize our potential and swing the odds back in our direction.

SP (Strong Value Play) - Gio Gonzalez $8,300
SP (Sneaky Value Play) - James Paxton $5,300
