Pitchers Walker Buehler FD - P 10500 DK - SP 9700 Opponent - CIN (Reiver Sanmartin) Park - LAD FD - 35.36 DK - 18.81 As expected, pitching has been a roller coaster ride early in the season but I am starting to get more confident as teams are now entering the second time through the rotation. Despite being limited to 78 pitches, Buehler looked good on opening day going five innings, allowing two earned runs on just four hits while striking out five. He is now the biggest favorite(-250) on this slate, and by a wide margin, and facing a Reds team that sits second to last in team wOBA(.257) and wRC+(59) early in the season. Buehler is our top projected pitcher on this slate and a core play in all formats. Charlie Morton FD - P 9000 DK - SP 9300 Opponent - SD (Joe Musgrove) Park - SD FD - 33.5 DK - 18.04 Morton's first start of the season was eerily similar to Buehler's as he went 5.1 innings, gave up two earned runs, and struck out five on 78 pitchers. He is a power pitcher who has recorded a 29% K rate since the start of 2019 and backed it up with a 12.5% swinging-strike rate. It aligns well with the matchup as he faces a Padres team that is still without their superstar, Fernando Tatis Jr, and are scoring just 3.7 runs per game while striking out 24% of the time. There is most definitely a path to 90 pitches for both these pitchers so paying up for both on DraftKings is not out of the question but my favorite spot to use Morton is on fanDuel where he the 8th most expensive pitcher on the main slate. Catcher/First Base C.J. Cron FD - 1B 4100 DK - 1B 4500 Opponent - CHC (Justin Steele) Park - COL FD - 15.83 DK - 11.9 The Rockies are off to a hot start winning four of their first five games and they are back home tonight where it comes as no surprise they lead all teams in implied runs. They face a young lefty in Justin Steele who has struggled against power-hitting righties so that is where we will start things tonight. Cron is coming off a very productive first season with the Rockies and has carried it over into 2022 as he comes in...

The Course Harbour Town Golf Links Par 71 - 7,099 Yards Greens - Bermuda **Click the image above to see a hole by hole breakdown from PGATour.com** Previous Five Winners 2021 - Stewart Cink(-19) 2020 - Webb Simpson(-22) 2019 - C.T. Pan(-12) 2018 - Satoshi Kodaira(-12) 2017 - Wesley Bryan(-13) From the Green Jacket to the Plaid Jacket as the PGA Tour heads to Hilton Head, South Carolina for the 2022 RBC Heritage. You would almost think it's another major with arguably the best field we have seen here as five of the world's Top 10 and 24 of the world's Top 50 golfers will tee it up at Harbour Town GL this week. It's not only the jacket color that changes this week as the course is a near-polar opposite of Augusta. Harbour Town is a Pete Dye special that mitigates distance off the tee and forces players to find certain areas of the fairway(or rough in the right places) if you are to have a shot at these very small Bermuda greens. With players finding fairways at an above-average rate compared to Tour average, it puts a ton of emphasis on approach shots and those players who are dialed in with their irons are the ones who find their way to the top of the leaderboard comes Sunday. With the course being a par 71, there is also one less Par 5 hole which pushes Par 4 scoring way up my weights in the model. Let's look at those top stats below and then get into the picks.

DraftKings and FanDuel MLB Picks for Wednesday, 4/13/22 - All Day Every team usually plays on Wednesday, with games spread all throughout the day. That has us with plenty to discuss, so, let's kick things off with the pitchers!

START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Pitchers Corbin Burnes FD - P 10400 DK - RP 9600 Opponent - BAL (John Means) Park - BAL FD - 42.92 DK - 24.11 Burnes won NL Cy Young last season and it's easy to understand why. The hard-throwing righty finished 2021 with a 2.43 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and 12.6 K/9 rate. That's pretty much the guy we saw in 2020, and it's clear that he's taken the leap into ace territory. That's horrible news for Baltimore, with the Orioles ranked 26th in both runs scored and OBP while sitting 25th in xwOBA. The oddsmakers love this spot, too, making Burnes a -190 favorite in a game with a 7.5-run total. That means Baltimore is projected for just 3.5 runs, making Burnes the best play on the board. Zack Greinke FD - P 7300 DK - SP 5900 Opponent - STL (Jordan Hicks) Park - STL FD - 27.39 DK - 13.43 This might be an unpopular play, but Greinke is just too cheap. This guy has churned out quality starts for over a decade now and kicked off the season with 5.1 one-run innings in his Royals debut. That's the guy we've become accustomed to throughout Greinke's career, generating a 3.18 ERA and 1.11 WHIP dating back to 2009. He's fallen off a bit, but a 3.39 ERA and 1.08 WHIP since 2017 is nothing to scoff at. Facing the Cardinals sounds like a tough matchup on the surface, but St. Louis sat 20th in runs scored and 19th in xwOBACON last season. If he can just battle through the tough top half of this order, Greinke should cruise through the bottom half and provide the minimum quality start we need from a player this cheap. Kyle Hendricks (FD $8100, DK $6600) is a quality start machine and should pick another one up against Pittsburgh's 29th-ranked offense. Catcher/First Base Matt Olson FD - 1B 3900 DK - 1B 5300 Opponent - WSH (Josiah Gray) Park - ATL FD - 14.67 DK - 10.92 Olson opened some eyes when he signed that massive deal with the Braves, but he's earned every bit of it with his pristine power. The southpaw slugger generated a .371 OBP, .540 SLG, and .911...

Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Pitchers Yu Darvish FD - P 9700 DK - SP 10100 Opponent - SF (Alex Cobb) Park - SFFD - 34.55 DK - 18.65 Darvish was anything but sharp in the first game of the season, walking four and only striking out three in his four innings. That’s not the kind of efficiency (or lack thereof) we want to see out of a SP in this price range. But I think we can go back to the well for Tuesday with some factors working in his favor. The run line in this game is low (8) thanks to a fantastic pitcher’s park in San Fran and the Giants have one of the lowest implied run lines on the day. Darvish has gotten the walks in check over the last couple of seasons so I’m not as worried about any control issues and I think the FanDuel price is especially a bargain. Patrick Sandoval FD 8400 DK 7900 Opponent - MIA (Jesús Luzardo) Park - MIAFD - 32.3 DK - 16.84 Sandoval draws a good matchup against the Marlins as a -167 home favorite, some of the better win odds on this main slate of games. Miami has scored all off 11 runs through their first four games, highlighting just how bad of an offensive attack this team is working with this season. Sandoval, for his part, is coming off a solid 2021 campaign that saw him strike out more than 9.5 batters per nine with a 3.79 xFIP that played better than average. I like the price on both sites and think he makes a strong SP2 candidate on DK. If you think the 9.45 K/9 rate from last year is real then Alex Cobb (FD $7600 DK $7000) is a total bargain here even in a bad matchup against the Padres. Catcher/First Base Max Muncy FD - 1B 3100 DK - 1B/2B 4600 Opponent - MIN (Chris Archer) Park - MINFD - 13.95 DK - 10.31 Muncy is still coming too cheap to start the season, especially considering the kind of potent lineup he’s able to hit in combined with his own skills at the plate. He’s coming off a .900 OPS season, walking at a borderline elite level, and carrying a ton of power (36 home runs last season). Archer is still able to strike batters out, but has struggled with consistency over the last couple...

Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! After a wild opening weekend to the 2022 season, we now enter the first full week of the season and it starts with a full day of baseball. For this article, we will be looking solely at the seven-game main slate that locks at 6:40 pm ET on both sites. Let's get started. Pitchers Huascar Ynoa FD 8600 DK 8600 Opponent - WSH (Undecided) Park - WSH FD - 28.36 DK - 14.73 We are now five days into the season and that means teams are reaching the bottom of their rotations. On the main slate, it will be tough to pay up for Manoah against a stacked Yankees lineup so I will be taking a more balanced approach that starts with Ynoa. It feels like we have been waiting for a breakout for a while but he has plus stuff and had an xFIP(3.40) that was over a half a run better than his ERA94.05) over 17 starts last season. He also produced an above-average 27% K rate and faces a Nats team that is striking out over 30% of the time to start the season. Fire up Ynoa in all formats. Nick Martinez FD 5700 DK 5900 Opponent - SF (Alex Wood) Park - SF FD - 13.28 DK - 6.97 This slate is probably going to lead me to a similar strategy I have used almost every slate to start the season and that is to save at pitching and load up on bats. So far so good so let's keep it rolling on Monday. Martinez is sub $6K on both sites but I am really only interested on DraftKings as a cheap Sp2 to give me 4-5 innings and 12-15 DK points. Martinez hasn't pitched in the majors since 2017 and has been in Japan but has apparently picked up some velocity over the last couple of seasons and is a brand new pitcher. I am willing to find out at these prices against a Giants team that is Top 10 in K %(29%) early in the season while scoring just 10 runs through three games. Catcher/First Base Jared Walsh FD 3400 DK 4700 Opponent - MIA (Elieser Hernandez) Park - MIA FD - 12.36 DK - 9.32 Overall, it has been a rough start for the Angels' offense who have scored just 10 runs in their first four games but there have been some bright...

DraftKings and FanDuel MLB Picks for Sunday, 4/10/22 The opening weekend featured some fascinating results, and it's interesting to see how these lineups are playing out. I'll be covering Sunday slates from here on out, and these are some of the most exciting cards out there. It always features all 30 teams, with most of the games being played during the day. It also features some bizarre lineups, because this is the day coaches love to rest players. We likely won't see much of that here in the opening week, but it's something you need to watch as the season progresses!

START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Pitchers Hyun Jin Ryu FD - P 8000 DK - SP 9200 Opponent - TEX (Martin Perez) Park - TOR FD - 36.49 DK - 19.06 Toronto is actually my World Series pick, and this article will emphasize why. Ryu will have to be a focal piece of that run, being the veteran pitcher for this volatile rotation. The crafty lefty has a 3.00 ERA and 1.10 WHIP since 2018. He's coming off the worst season of his career, but a 3.22 ERA and 1.13 WHIP through July of last season shows that he still has the stuff to get it done. The main reason we love him here is this matchup, with Texas ranked 28th in both runs scored and xwOBA while sitting 30th in OBP and OPS. That has Ryu entering this matchup as a -250 favorite, the largest favorite on the slate. Steven Matz FD - P 7900 DK - SP 7100 Opponent - PIT (Bryse Wilson) Park - STL FD - 35.37 DK - 18.45 Matz isn't exactly the most exciting pitcher to use, but he's flashed moments of brilliance throughout his career. The southpaw had a 3.82 ERA in what was a bounceback 2021 season, posting a 3.42 ERA over his final 20 starts. That alone earned him a contract with the Cardinals, and this is a good ballpark for him to get going. The main reason we like him here is this matchup, with Pittsburgh ranked 28th in runs scored, 27th in xwOBA, and dead-last in runs scored last season. That has Matz and the Cards entering this game as a -210 favorite as well, making him one of the values of the day below $8K! Corey Kluber (FD $8300 DK $7400) enters his matchup as a -200 favorite against Baltimore and has shown Cy Young upside in the past. It's far...
