Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9

Week 9 of the fantasy baseball season is here and man, does it feel good to have it happen in mid-May rather than September. This time last year, fantasy playoffs were starting. This season, we've got a long way to go and I for one could not be more excited we still have over four […]

We have completed another week of MLB action, and we have once again been littered with injuries. Both good and bad things arise from injuries.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/23/21): MLB DFS Lineups

Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates - Week 9
