Even before Mike Trout (calf) suffered a calf strain that will keep him out of action until the season's second half, the debate was raging amongst fantasy managers: How many injured list slots should there be? It often feels like the players are landing on the trainer's table more than ever before, but that's actually true […]
Full Story »The Bigger Picture - The Miseducation of Park Factors
Another no-hitter in the books. Something's in the water or, more accurately, in the baseballs. We already covered that topic last time so let's figure out how to extract more offense from our daily or weekly lineups. Home/road splits seem like a good place to start and we know certain stadiums play friendlier to offense […]
Full Story »Barrel-Aged: Hitters With Biggest Barrel Gains
Lately, I've been focusing a lot on barrels when trying to evaluate which hitters are off to the most note-worthy starts. I recently covered Blast Rate, which is a sub-section of barrels that aims to tell us who is making the "best" good contact. Today, we'll focus on who has shown the best growth in […]
Full Story »NASCAR Truck Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Circuit of the Americas Toyota Tundra 225 (5/22/21)
The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series will make its inaugural visit to COTA on Saturday.

The NFL has just put together and released the 2021 season schedule. The league did its homework and created the path to the Super Bowl for the 32 teams that are part of this footballing circus, which now includes an extra week of play in what would amount to be the first 17-game season in […]
Full Story »EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 38: English Premier League
We've done it. We've reached the last matchweek of the season. Quite frankly, it can't come soon enough as the last couple of weeks have been a complete blowout. This season has bought some nice big winners but also plenty of heartbreak. At least 10 times we've missed out on a winner due to questionable […]
Full Story »Running Back Stat Sleepers - Missed Tackles Forced
Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question a great way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season. Especially in the case of running backs, considering overall elusiveness is arguably the best way to determine how good (or bad) a player's performance was. And that's what this is all about. I will […]
Full Story »UDFA Running Backs To Watch In Dynasty
One of the biggest names in the fantasy game last year was Jaguars running back James Robinson, who went from UDFA to fantasy stud out of nowhere. Or at least it was out of nowhere if you didn't read last year's version of my UDFA to watch piece, where I mentioned Robinson. (Note: I also […]
