MLB Value Index - August 14

I am so very glad I have a distraction to come to each night - researching stats, writing this article, weighing options. It's a nice getaway from this cruel world we live in. And like Forrest Gump, that's all I am going to say about that... But…

MLB Value Index - August 8

Today we are back to a full-slate of action in the majors. We have fifteen games, one pitcher I want to use and tons of gas cans. I think pitching is a mess outside of Chris Sale, so we all probably need a little luck on our side with who…

MLB Value Index - July 14

Oh thank god.... Baseball is back. It was only 4 days, but damn was it a long four days. I played WNBA and CFL in its stead, along with a watered down PGA field, and it still didn't fill the void. Maybe I have a problem, eh? Anyhow, who…

MLB Value Index - June 22 (All Day)

After a two-day absence, I am happy to be back to talk fantasy baseball. Having a guys retreat definitely was fun and nice way to recharge the ol' DFS battery. Today we have 12 games, but split into two slates with 6 early and 6 late games. Both…

MLB Value Index - May 16

So we have a new way to play baseball DFS debuting today. If you haven't heard, DraftKings is offering "Arcade Mode" starting with tonight's slate. The short explanation for this style of play is like playing home-run derby, but if you look…

MLB Value Index - May 10 (All Day)

Today we have a split slate of games in the majors. For your afternoon enjoyment, you get to decide whether or not you want to play Coors and which dart throw of a pitcher you want to add to your lineups. While in the evening, we get a ton…

MLB Value Index - May 3

Welcome back to another edition of the Value Index! Today we get another 15-game slate to tackle, our second one in as many days. While this slate doesn't have the stud pitchers to choose from, there are plenty of bats in great spots we can…

MLB Value Index - May 2

The Blue Jays continue to troll me. Pump in money thinking you will catch the Blue Jays on heater early in the season;...lose. Basically go all in on Severino Monday against one of the worst offenses in baseball (the Blue Jays)...lose. It's…

MLB Value Index - April 26

So it turns out, Clayton Kershaw at $14,400 was not exactly the right play. Three games postpone. Then when you thought Coors might not play because of weather, you fade the players you liked *cough* Carlos Gonzalez *cough*. It goes off. Chris…

MLB Value Index - April 24

Welcome back to another week of the Value Index. It's the last week of April and May is upon us.   April showers bring May flowers? That's the saying right?   Perhaps April has been tough on you for baseball DFS, but perhaps the…

MLB Value Index - April 19

With a sample size large enough to reflect back on this season, we are going to change things up a bit with the Value Index. The Index worked very well during basketball season - 5 positions, 1 at each position, plus it's basketball. But for…

MLB Value Index - April 4

It's great to have baseball back, isn't it? I took off from my full-time gig as a teacher to stay home, play some DFS and watch baseball all day. These are the kinds of sacrifices you have to make for a day that should be a national holiday. Move…
