Results from RotoBaller's Friday Fanduel Challenge

MLB daily lineups advice and expert picks, for Fanduel and other daily fantasy baseball leagues. Today two RotoBaller staff experts battle on Fanduel with their MLB daily lineup picks.

Results from RotoBaller's Friday Fanduel Challenge

We had a great challenge this past Friday between fellow Rotoballers Ryan McLaughlin (@rcmcglen84) and Jason Giusto (@rskybiznis) . They locked horns in a H2H battle and the the winner was: Ryan with a nice 43.25 total, beating Jason by over 10 points.

Ryan rode the back of a very solid Jered Weaver start, a monster game from Adrian Gonzalez, and very solid games from Alejando De Aza and Troy Tulowitzki (as predicted by yours truly).  Jason's team had an enormous game from Todd Helton - probably Helton's best single game performance in a few years - but it wasn't enough to make up the gap.

Nice job Ryan - you showed what RotoBalling is all about.  Better luck next Friday Jason.

Here were the MLB Daily Leagues Lineup Picks for August 30, 2013

This Friday we have a special treat for all you daily leaguers.  Two of our resident MLB daily league experts are facing off in RotoBaller's Fanduel Friday Challenge.

Resident RotoBallers Jason Giusto and Ryan Mclaughlin will test their skills by each picking an MLB daily league lineup and seeing who comes out ahead.   What does the winner get? Bragging rights, which is almost better than money when it comes to daily fantasy baseball. Good luck guys!

As always, remember to check your MLB daily lineups before they lock and make sure you are doing your own research, too, for optimal performance! The most successful daily leaguers are grinders who are constantly tweaking their lineups as the day goes on and fantasy news gets released. Good luck today, RotoBallers!
