Weekly Rankings Update

rankings trophy

What’s up Grinders? Welcome to the June 19th edition of the RotoGrinders TPOY Weekly Rankings Update!

A lot of the RG crew are travelling as we speak on their way home from the Experts Fantasy Football Draft at the FSTA in San Francisco but as much as we love football, we’re right in the heart of DFS baseball season, and there is a TOPY title to be won.

Another week in the books, a few more qualifier seats have been one, and some definite movers and shakers in the standings. So let’s get to it!

Rankings #26-100: New Players and Players Moving Up

New Players to the Leaderboard


Movers in the Top-100

Notes

rotogrinders_user_15307

The standout news here is that our very own sbk5065 has cracked the Top 100! SBK is easily one of the more underrated DFS players out there. He is primarily a cash game player, so his name doesn’t pop up on top of the huge GPP leaderboards too often, but that only makes his ranking that much more impressive. It’s not easy to make this exclusive list, and it’s only made harder without huge influxes of points from a big GPP score. Well done, SBK – even though you’re a Philly guy we still love you!

Notes

Fresh off of a few qualifier victories, McJester still holds the top spot in the coveted TPOY rankings, and it’s hard to argue otherwise. Stlcardinals84 has a firm hold on second place and the best chance at taking the top spot, but with his recent decision to take a break and focus on his family (which is something we all need to do from time to time), the window is open for someone else to make a surge for the top spot. Who in the top 10 will make the jump? We’ll have to wait and find out.

Notes

rotogrinders_user_12945

The king of MLB DFS, BirdWings still holds strong atop the June leaderboard, which surprises exactly no one. Newer players likely recognize most of the players on this list, as may of them are RG regulars (Draftcheat, ehafner, Notorious, and csuram round out the top 6) but another guy who goes unheralded much of the time is Keith3101. If I had to venture a guess, I would say that he likely prefers it that way, as he rarely makes himself known on the forums (he’s posted a total of 7 times in the past 2 years), but you have to hand it to him, his results speak for themselves.
