  • Thursday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 5/11/17

    The DFSR guys break down a shorter Thursday slate of MLB for FanDuel and DraftKings. It’s an interesting night with some name pitchers in some less than exciting matchups. The guys discuss whether you can roster a guy like Michael Pineda in cash games facing a good Astros’ team in Yankee Stadium. They also break down Gerrit Cole, Zack Greinke, Marco Estrada and even talk a little JC Ramirez and Derek Holland. 

    On the offensive side of things the cash game stacking options actually look fairly clear cut. First they talk about the game in Coors and whether you can target both sides of the ball there. And then they look at a couple of cheaper teams in the Rangers and Blue Jays coming in good spots.

  • Friday DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 5/5/17

    On today's DFSR MLB Podcast, Doug and James break down a full Friday slate. There are a lot of great pitcher options tonight, from Strasburg, to Darvish, to Archer - but to what degree should we be concerned about each of them posting declines in their peripheral stats this season? And what about Kenta Maeda's inflated ERA? The guys break down which stats matter this early in the season, which stats we can ignore, and the degree to which we should trust a small sample size vs. a career-long body of work.

    And then there are the bats. We've got a game in Coors tonight with some curious pricing, a few terrible pitchers pitching against likewise terrible teams, and an American league stack that might be off some radars. Get ready to have your mind blown, because today's podcast is not one to miss.

  • Thursday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 5/4/17

    It’s a double slate of MLB game for Thursday with a bunch starting at 1PM EST and then a shorter five-game slate in the evening. The theme of the day is the chalk pitchers on each slate. For the afternoon it’s clearly Max Scherzer even up against a tougher Diamondbacks’ offense. Max is an overwhelming money line favorite going in and clearly the best talent going today. You can also pair him with John Lackey on DraftKings in the starting pitcher two slot. Lackey is in a solid matchup against the Phillies and coming cheaper than Scherzer. 

    For the evening slate it’s basically Adam Wainwright or bust in cash games as he represents the clear choice. The drop off in talent after him is pretty stark. 
    For stacks the guys discuss the Nationals coming a little more on the expensive end, the Astros against AJ Griffin, and both side of the A’s/ Twins game. All of that and more on a full MLB podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings.

  • Tuesday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 5/2/17

    DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the baseball podcast to discuss a full slate of evening games. There’s a lot to discuss, especially on the pitching side. Chris Sale headlines the talk as he’s been an ace’s ace this season. His numbers are in the Kershaw level with elite K’s and really limiting the walks. He’s almost certainly the chalk cash game pitcher. The guys also discuss Carlos Martinez, Jon Lester, Alex Wood, and James Paxton as considerations. 

    On the offensive side of things they discuss the Cubs against Jeremy Hellickson, the Yankees against a garbage Mat Latos arm, The Red Sox against Alec Asher and the Reds. 
    All of this and more on the Tuesday MLB podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings.

  • Friday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/28/17

    DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to a Friday MLB podcast to discuss a full slate of evening games. There’s a lot to like going in with Max Scherzer taking the mound against a struggling Mets’ team. He comes in as, likely, the cash game pitcher based on pedigree, matchup and upside. 

    But the guys also discuss Robbie Ray, Jeff Samardzija, and possibly even Jacob deGrom as tournament guys. 
    For the offenses they take a look at the Astros facing a weak Jharrel Cotton arm, the Angels against Nick Martinez and the Toronto coming cheap against Blake Snell. All of that an more on the Friday podcast.

  • Thursday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/27/17

    DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the MLB podcast to discuss a couple of short slates for Thursday baseball. There’s a lot to like about both the early and the late. First off, Noah Syndergaard was scratched after they posted the podcast and Matt Harvey will take his spot in the rotation. But the early slate also features Corey Kluber, Justin Verlander and Carlos Martinez. 

    The Cardinals are in a good spot all day in their double header against the Blue Jays, facing Mat Latos and Casey Lawrence respectively. And then we need to consider paying up for Coors’ bats. 
    In the evening it’s all Chris Sale against the Yankees. He’s been about the best pitcher in baseball this season and is the clear cut ace for the evening.

  • Wednesday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/26/17
    DFSR’’s Doug Norrie and Austyn Varney take to the Wednesday podcast to discuss the evening in baseball. The big question to start is whether Noah Sydergaard is the clearcut cash pitcher. He’s been dominant again this season and has the highest money line of the night at -196. He faces a weaker Atlanta team outside of Freddie Freeman. 
    They also discuss other arms like Carlos Martinez (if the weather holds), Dylan Bundy and James Paxton. 
    On the offensive side of things there’s obviously a Coors game to break down. They discuss whether ownership will be even higher than normal over there because of the outpouring of runs last night. After that game they discuss the Diamondbacks, Rangers and even the Phillies as a mini stack.

  • Friday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/21/17
    DFSR”s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the MLB pod to discuss a full Friday in baseball for FanDuel and DraftKings. It’s an interesting night for sure with some starting pitchers in solid spots. The guys discuss Jacob deGrom against the Nationals who could be without Daniel Murphy again tonight. There’s also Corey Kluber against the White Sox who tend to strike out above league average rates against righty pitching. 
    Then then talk about Alex Meyer coming very cheap on DraftKings against a mostly-righty Blue Jays team who are really struggling. 
    For offenses the guys discuss the San Francisco Giants heading into Coors tonight. They are getting the Coors’ pricing bump on both sites which could make them a fade tonight. Instead they focus on the Los Angeles Dodgers heading into Chase against the D’Backs. You can also target the Angels against Mat Latos or the Cubs heading into Great American Ballpark.

  • Thursday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/20/17
    DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the baseball podcast to discuss a smaller evening slate in the majors with only seven games on the docket. They start off talking pitching and comparing/ contrasting the four big arms going here. Noah Syndergaard and Stephen Strasburg both stand out in the upper tier and we can make a case for both in cash games. Then in the $9K range we have James Paxton and Carlos Martinez. Paxton’s been amazing to start the season and hasn’t allowed a run yet. Meanwhile, Martinez has had electric K stuff but struggled with the walks. 
    On the offensive/ stack side of things the guys discuss the Orioles going against Scott Feldman in Great American Ballpark and the Royals facing off against Andrew Cashner in Arlington. All of this and more.

  • Tuesday MLB DFS Talk for FanDuel and DraftKings - 4/18/17
    Doug and James are back to talk about Tuesday's slate of MLB DFS baseball. They're keying in on which pitchers to target for cash games, which we should think about for big tournaments, and who they're staying away from. Will Max Scherzer be the highest owned pitcher on the slate? Can you justify paying down for Luis Severino to fill out your lineups with big bats? Are they worried about Yu Darvish? Tune in to find out.
    The DFSR guys also go through which teams they're targeting for stacks in big tournaments, talking big picture strategy on what types of pitchers they like to stack against, and the importance of batting order in stacking. They'll also talk about why we should thinking about stacking the Blue Jays (yet again) in spite of their slow performance out of the gate.
