We’ll teach you how to fish.

Monday, July 9th

Happy Monday! We’ve got one week left before the All-Star Break, and things tend to get a little funny heading into the break with players getting extra, unexpected days off and pitchers being scratched later in the week. Be sure to stay on your toes with checking lineups and not getting too married to your initial builds, as things are likely to change.

This Monday schedule is a little funky with two double-headers, and both of those series being left out of the main slates on all sites. That leaves us with a nine-game main slate with some tricky pitching questions. We are not lacking for options, but there are a lot of question marks surrounding them.

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
