MLB DFS Tournament Strategy: Wednesday, June 12th

MLB DFS tournament play is unlike that of any other sport. Predicting outcomes with precision is difficult, and player variance is near its peak. There are special considerations when constructing lineups in order for you to find success in the long term.

We are going to try something new with this article, so please leave some feedback in the comments section below.
