2014 Fantasy Baseball, Daily Double Switch for April 11th
Tonight’s MLB has got me excited. We have a full slate of games and they all start at 7PM or later. This should make for some nice variance after a few days in a row of smaller slates causing many obvious picks. Draftstreet has done a very good with pricing

It spanned 20-plus years and saw him rack up 21 victories. Granted, we are talking about orchestrated
2014 Fantasy Baseball: Week Two Roundup

2014 Fantasy Baseball: The Fielding Factor NL
After looking at all three tiers of the NL only starters, we have discovered that pitchers themselves have very little control over what happens once the hitter makes contact with the ball. Strikeout rates were far and away the best predictor of pitcher success between the three tiers. Of course,
2014 Fantasy Baseball Daily Fix Podcast: April 10, 2014
I’m supposed to write a post each Thursday about starting pitching, but I’ve been spending almost all my time each night prepping for daily fantasy the next day. Tonight was no different, so instead of a pitching article, I’ve got a DFS podcast for Front Office Members behind the pay
