Pitchers Freddy Peralta FD - P 9900 DK - SP 9700 Opponent - PIT (Tyler Anderson) Park - PITFD - 42.71 DK - 24.31 Peralta has an elite 2.17 ERA on the season though the 3.49 xFIP is about a run and a half behind on the season. He’s still a well-above-average arm and is striking out more than 12.5 batters per nine. The walks are a bit of a problem but he still has a lot of upside in this matchup. He’s a -173 road favorite against the Pirates who rank dead last in the league on offense this season. Their .287 team wOBA is a full seven points lower than the next-worst team. This is the worst group of bats by a pretty wide margin. Charlie Morton FD - P 9000 DK - SP 7800 Opponent - MIA (Zach Thompson) Park - ATLFD - 33.02 DK - 17.62 Morton continues to keep the ball out of the air with a 48% groundball rate on the season. He’s also striking out more than 10 batters per nine and sports a 3.48 xFIP. He’s a -180 home favorite against the Marlins who are the second-to-last offense in the league right before the lowly Pirates. Being able to stack arms against the two worst-hitting teams in the league is just the spot you want to be in here on Sunday. Catcher/First Base Yuli Gurriel FD - 1B 3300 DK - 1B 4800 Opponent - CLE (Cal Quantrill) Park - CLEFD - 14.01 DK - 10.75 Gurriel draws a great matchup against Quantrill who strikes out fewer than seven batters per nine and is rocking a mid-4’s xFIP. Gurriel has an OPS pushing up near .900 and is walking (11%) more than he’s striking out (9%). He is on pace for the second-best power numbers of his career with 10 home runs on the season. He’s been slightly better against lefties for his career with the 122 wRC+ seven points higher than the righty split. José Abreu FD - 1B 3600 DK - 1B 5200 Opponent - DET (Matt Manning) Park - DETFD - 12.2 DK - 9.23 Abreu is having a down season for sure, but to start lets look at Matt Manning. The latter has struggled through his first 14 big league innings striking out only 9% of opposing batters and sporting an 8.16 ERA. Meanwhile, Abreu has the OPS sitting...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Wednesday, 4/28/21

Posted by on Apr 28, 2021 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 4/28/21 Tuesday's article went pretty well, but it's a good indicator of how crazy things are in the NBA right now. While we got a few gems, a few of the picks didn't work out for unforeseen reasons. Those variables are becoming more common by the day with the season winding down to an end, and it's becoming tougher to predict who will even play at this point with so many teams tanking. Injuries have also caused mayhem on the league, and it's crazy to click on the player pool and see half the guys with injury designations. Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our MLB Optimizer, and NHL Projections as well. Plus, our new player lab!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Ja Morant FD - $8100 DK - $8200 Opponent - POR Proj Pts FD - 38.92 DK - 40.43 This 21-year-old is truly one of the most talented players in the NBA, and he's in the best stretch of his career right now. The former Murray State standout has scored at least 37 DraftKings points in five straight games, providing nearly 55 fantasy points per game in that span. That's easily one of the best stretches in the league, and it makes it hard to believe that Morant remains around $8K on both sites. The best part of this play is the matchup, though, with Portland ranked 29th in defensive efficiency while surrendering the most fantasy points in the league to opposing PGs. Ja is averaging an absurd 54.4 DK points per game in their two meetings this season if you needed any more incentive. Goran Dragic FD - $5000 DK - $5400 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 29.52 DK - 31.19 Dragic has been all over the map this season, but with Kendrick Nunn, Tyler Herro, and Victor Oladipo all nicked up, he could be looking at another monster night. All three of those guys sat out on Monday, and Dragic tallied eight points, six rebounds, seven assists, and three steals en route to 32 DraftKings points. That's a stellar total from a dude sitting around $5K, and he's proven to be that sort of player when given the opportunity in the past. He actually had at least 39 fantasy points in two of his previous three games before that,...

DraftKings and FanDuel MLB Picks for Sunday 4/19/21

DraftKings and FanDuel MLB Picks for Sunday 4/19/21 Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our MLB, NBA, PGA, NHL, and NFL optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Pitchers Shane Bieber FD - P 11500 DK - SP 10000 Opponent - CIN (Wade Miley) Park - CINFD - 46.81 DK - 26.73 Bieber is *only* a -155 road favorite against the Reds on Sunday, but rings in with the highest projection of the early games. That’s what happens when you put up video game stats for your last 100 innings pitched. In that span, Bieber is averaging 14.5 strikeouts per nine with an xFIP in the low 2’s. He’s one of, if not the, best pitchers in baseball. The Reds have been a very good offense to start the season so this isn’t a total layup for Bieber, but the strikeout upside is nearly in a class of its own. Aaron Nola FD - P 8500 DK - SP 8800 Opponent - STL (John Gant) Park - PHIFD - 40.95 DK - 22.28 Nola comes at a price point a bit cheaper than some of the other stud arms on this slate, but he’s also one of the better pitchers in the league. The righty has a 6:1 K:BB ratio to start the season and has been in command of the strike zone for the better part of two seasons now. He’s a -170 home favorite against the Cardinals who’ve been a bottom-third offense to start the season and are striking out 25% of the time as a team. Freddy Peralta (FD $8500 DK $9500) could be a great cash option against the Pirates. He’s a big, -195 home favorite. Catcher/First Base Rhys Hoskins FD - 1B 3400 DK - 1B 4600 Opponent - STL (John Gant) Park - PHIFD - 12.38 DK - 9.1 Gant has been a reliever for most of his career but shifted to a starter this season. The ERA is fine but the 4.85 xFIP and six walks through nine innings show a guy struggling some with control. Hoskins meanwhile has been very patient for his career but has barely drawn any walks to start the season. Something has to give here and I’m leaning Hoskins in this matchup. He could round out to a .900 OPS guy again if the peripherals tick up some and this is a matchup to get going with. Keston Hiura FD - 1B 2500 DK - 1B/2B 4400 Opponent - PIT (Chad Kuhl) Park - MILFD - 10.74 DK - 8.13 Chad Kuhl has been pretty terrible this...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA picks for 3/17/18

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA picks for 2/13/18 Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA optimizer and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! First time with NBA? Be sure to read our free NBA Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy and more. We've got you completely covered. Point guard Tyus Jones FD - $4900 DK - $4700Opponent - HOUProj Pts FD - 25.86 DK - 25.01 With Teague already ruled out for the Wolves, we should be in line for another Tyus show. Jones has only played 26 and 28 minutes in the last two games, but those low totals were largely a result of some crazy game scripts. With Harden and Paul both questionable, I like the Timberwolves' odds to keep this one relatively close, and if they do I have Tyus penciled in for an easy 32+ minutes. He's far too cheap for what he can produce as a starter, and we're only getting these cheap prices because of the game scripts of the last two contests. D.J. Augustin FD - $4900 DK - $5100Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 27.05 DK - 28.34 Augustin found himself as some unlikely chalk against the Cavs, and promptly popped off for 40+ fantasy points on FanDuel. DJ is on lock for 30-32 minutes in close contests right now, and seems to have gained the confidence of his coaches and teammates. He's shooting 12+ times per game over his last three contests as compared to his season average of 8, and he's dealt 7 assists per game in that stretch as compared to his season average of 5. His time of possession has sneakily crept up, and in one of the league's best match-ups against the hapless Hawks we're happy to play Augustin in any format. Early slate thoughts: It all comes down to Dennis Smith Jr.'s status, really. If he sits again you could plan both Mudiay and Allen against the Lakers. You've also got the potential for another Jeremy Lin start if Lowry sits again. You've also got regular solid options like Kemba Walker. It'll be a recurring theme, but the early slate is just rife with good punts. Shooting Guard Eric Gordon FD - $5700 DK - $5300Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 29.05 DK - 30.81 Gordon will be starting over Danuel House on Sunday, and while that doesn't always guarantee him fantasy success (since he'll be playing alongside at least Chris Paul), there is more you can like here. Harden is currently listed as questionable, and if he winds up sitting then Gordon should...

FanDuel and DraftKings NBA Picks for Wednesday, 3/13

Posted by on Mar 13, 2019 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured, News | 2 comments

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA picks for 3/13/19 We now have less than a month to go in the regular season and that tends to lead to a lot of variance around certain teams, and by proxy, DFS lineups. Some teams are in the tank, some are really going for it and some seem annoyingly in between. But we've got you covered and have a six-game slate to dive into. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA optimizer and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! First time with NBA? Be sure to read our free NBA Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy and more. We've got you completely covered. Point guard Stephen Curry FD - $9200 DK - $9300 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 49.36 DK - 52.47 With Kevin Durant (ankle) expected to miss this game, stacking Warriors is one of the best options out there. Curry is the start of our stack, as he'll run the show with Durant sidelined. That's evident by the fact that he's leading the team with a 39.5 percent usage rate with Durant sidelined while averaging 1.5 DK points per minute. That's absurd per-minute production from the most talented shooter in the league, as Curry is also averaging 50 DK points in two matchups with the Rockets this season. That's no surprise when you consider the fact that Houston allows the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing point guards. Mike Conley FD - $9200 DK - $7800 Opponent - ATL Proj Pts FD - 43.28 DK - 43.54 Conley just took home Player of the Week honors last week, as he carried Memphis to a perfect 3-0 week. His numbers were ridiculous in that span, as Conley averaged 31.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 1.3 steals per game. That actually extends a streak in which Conley has at least 43 fantasy points in five of his last six games, as he's obviously taken over for this diminished roster. That's evident by the fact that he's posting a usage rate north of 30 percent in that span while playing 34 minutes a game. Those are actually higher than his season-long numbers and he should continue that success in this brilliant matchup. Not only does Atlanta rank dead-last in total defense, but they also allow the most fantasy points in the league to opposing point guards. Also consider: Reggie Jackson is worth a shot in the $5,000-range, as he's been averaging 29 DK points per game since the end of January. Shooting Guard Donovan Mitchell FD - $9400 DK - $8500 Opponent -...
