  • Daily NBA Plays: May 11, 2012 (2-Day Playoffs)

    alt

    Talk about some great games last night! I don’t know where the Sixers and Celtics found their lucky rabbits feet, but it sure seemed to be working last night. Both teams got lucky and won games that they basically choked away in the fourth quarter. Then we saw the Lakers just fall apart in the second half against the Nuggets. We only have a few more days of NBA picks until there are going to be too few of games to play, so make sure to take advantage of the last hoorah for fantasy basketball for the year. Here are our picks for the day: (Read More)

    alt

    The first round of the NBA playoffs is nearing to a close, but there are still 4 series that are going to game 6 which includes ATL/BOS, DEN/LAL, LAC/MEM, and CHI/PHI. This means that there is still time to play daily fantasy basketball. While the playoffs are tough in fantasy basketball due to all of the overlapping rosters, we are here to help you set yourself apart with these picks: (Read More)

    Only 6 games today featuring an awesome pitching match up in New York, Sabathia vs Price, we stayed away from that game as the pitchers could cancel each other out and if they are both on runs will be hard to come by. Get your ticket for the K festival featuring Stephen Strasburg and Mad Max Scherzer, the strikeouts will be flying between those two. We also continued the bashing of Derek Lowe after he really showed me up by shutting out the Angels the last time he was bashed, is redemption coming or will another battle be lost to the old man Derek Lowe?

    Happy Wednesday! Only a couple of more days until the weekend. Quick recap of our picks from yesterday: Our pitchers all performed very well. Burnett finished with 10 K’s, Kershaw had a nice game even though he did get stuck with the loss, and Gallardo really pitched well with 8 K’s in a win. The hitter’s weren’t as successful though with no home runs or big games from any of them. But that shouldn’t stop us from turning it around today. Here are our favorite picks for today based on Draftstreet salaries: (Read More)

    I was surprised to see three of the four teams on the brink of elimination find a way to win last night, but that just gives us more options for our 2 day Daily Fantasy basketball lineups. You can find 2 day action on both Drafstreet and FantasyFeud. Be sure to sign up through our links for terrific signup and incentive bonuses on each site. Here are our picks for the day. (Read More)

  • RotoTalk: Surviving Solo

    alt

    Daily Joust’s Solo Survivor Tournaments are unlike any other game you’ll encounter in the daily fantasy world. As such, there is a entirely different set of strategies that one needs to employ to take one down. Let’s start by understanding the beast and then craft an approach to slay it. We’ll also construct a lineup for tonight’s May 8th games. (Read More)

    We were in for a high-scoring fantasy baseball night last night and hopefully you were as well if you tuned in for yesterday’s Daily MLB Plays. In case you missed them, here are a few highlights: Carlos Zambrano with a complete game shutout, Nelson Cruz with a big game including two doubles and 3 runs, Jay Bruce and Hanley Ramirez both with homers, and Prince Fielder with a solid outing. This was one of our better nights and we will look to keep that going with tonight’s picks. These will be based from Draftstreet player salaries: (Read More)

    There are four games on Tuesday, the same number of games as there would be on a typical Tuesday during the NBA regular season. So we can look at these games much like we would in the regular season, except the level of play is much higher. No Bobcats players to supplement your sleeper picks, etc. So let’s break down the four Tuesday match ups and see if we can win you some money as the NBA season winds down. (Read More)

    With only two games tonight it is kind of difficult to play one day leagues without massive overlap, but luckily sites like Draftstreet & Fantasy Feud offer 2 day games which increases the player pool dramatically. We are going to focus on Draftstreet today and here is a rundown of a roster I like tonight. (Read More)

    Mondays are great as we get a whole new set of series to take a look at and besides a front end of the a double header, all the games are scheduled for the evening. I didn’t include Jared Weaver in my analysis today because I’m sure that everyone agrees that using him against the team he just pitched a no hitter against 5 days ago probably qualifies as a good play. Historically, starts after no hitters have not been particularly good (ask Phil Humber), but the Twins suck so bad Weaver should have very few issues putting together a good out. Here are today’s plays and good luck. (Read More)

Click the incentives to sign up. Looking at some young starters to get some big K numbers today Yu Davish and Matt Moore.

The stat is not infallible, but day in and day out it provides some decent results. Be sure to check our splits tab for all the top batter vs. pitcher numbers for the day. Here are the Saturday selections. (Read More)

With only 3 games most nights, this Saturday and Sunday are a prime opportunity with 4 games going on each day starting at 2:00 PM on Saturday! Don’t miss out! Today we’ll look at value picks for the newest site on the scene, Fantasy Feud’s, two-day contests. (Read More)

  • Beermakersfan is #1!

    alt

    Just a few short weeks after Condia and Rudzia55 switched spots atop the board, we have yet another new leader in Grinder Nation. The 2011 FFFC champion, Beermakersfan, has taken the top position as he impressively overtook Rudzia55 last week and now Condia. Beermakersfan was clearly prepared for the start of baseball season, and has used a huge number of wins on FanDuel to become the top DFS player in the Grinder system. A huge congratulations to Beermakersfan on this incredible achievement and best of luck holding that top spot moving ahead. (Read More)

    The NBA playoffs have hit their stride and there have been storylines abound. While there haven’t been any major upsets so far, there is still plenty of basketball to be played. We have 3 games on the schedule tonight as well as 4 games tomorrow so there is plenty of action available for fantasy basketball this weekend.

    Another week draws to a close with a couple of big qualifying events for the FanDuel and DraftStreet Baseball Championships. There are a lot of useful arms to choose from tonight, so the difference in these big contests will be efficient use of whatever portion of your cap you want to dedicate toward batters. That is, I’m expecting low scores around the majors on Friday night. Yeah, I’d be that guy at the book cheering for the under. I’m such a buzzkill. Let’s make picks. (Read More)

    The playoffs are normally filled with great games, crazy competition, and game winnings shots, however this year the playoffs have taken on a different role. It’s more of a circus than anything else with all that has gone on. Injuries, suspensions, and punching glass have turned this years playoffs into more talk about the off court stuff than the actual games. But for us die hard fantasy nuts, we have to keep focused on the action on the court. We have some great picks for you today. These picks are based on Draftstreet’s 2-Day leagues and salaries: (Read More)

    Light scheduling day with 5 day and 4 night games. No real aces going today except for Dan Haren but Haren has struggled in the past against Adam Lind, Kelly Johnson, Jose Bautista, and Edwin Encarnacion so I would label him a risky play to avoid. The Angels offense finally got rolling last night but still not much from Albert Pujols, for his price I would say he is almost a must play every day from here on out with the potential that he has. Unless you believe there is an injury in play. (Read More)

    While last night wasn’t the best night for our picks, I did manage to win the qualifier for Draftstreet’s DSBC! While I think it took a whole lot of luck (a complete game shutout from Jerome Williams), I also would like to credit Rotogrinders for their amazing research tools. If you haven’t checked them out, be sure to visit the splits/lineups page each day to help build your team, they certainly make my job easier. But enough about me let’s get to the picks! Since the early game has already started, all of these picks will be for games that start at 6:35 ET or later. Tonight’s games are packed with great pitching so it is going to be hard to find good hitters tonight. (Read More)
