Monday, August 5th

Happy Monday! We’ve got a slightly different main slate between sites tonight with the second game of the Marlins-Mets doubleheader being included on FD and Yahoo, but left off the DK/FDRFT slate. That second game doesn’t have much appeal from any angle, so it does little to affect how I look at this slate. At first glance, this looks like one of those slates where ownership with the bats will get consolidated around a couple obvious spots, leaving us with ample opportunity to be different without being bad. Hey, it’s not bad to be different, that’s what my mom always told me anyway!

One of the preeminent baseball minds in all of fantasy, Dave Potts (aka CheeseIsGood) has won contests at the highest levels of both season-long and DFS. He is a 2x winner of a $1,000,000 1st-place prize in DFS, having won the 2014 FanDuel baseball Live Final and following that up by taking down a DraftKings Milly Maker Tournament in 2015. In addition, he’s won the Main Event championship in the National Fantasy Baseball Championship and the NFBC Platinum League, which is the highest buy-in entry league. His consistent success in the NFBC tournaments earned him a prestigious spot in their Hall of Fame. Dave can also strum a mean guitar while carrying a tune, and if you’re lucky, you’ll see him do so on one of his MLB Crunch Time appearances. Follow Dave on X – @DavePotts2
