MLB - Value Index - Friday, July 12

I kind of get used to being away from a computer during the All-Star Break. No fantasy, no writing committment, and can just chill. It's the same for my summer breaks away from my teaching job, you get used to not working. But at least…

MLB - Value Index - Thursday, June 20

Soooo, food poisoning/stomach bugs are no joke. Tuesday night, something hit me like a Mike Tyson right hook and I was out, thus no Index for Wednesday. But things are better, and like Little Mac, I am up before the 10 count. This is…

MLB - Value Index - Monday, June 17

Hope everyone had a great Father's Day weekend, enjoying food, family and some U.S. Open Golf! That's how I like to spend this weekend every year personally. Outside of golf's third major, there also was some big news in the land of baseball…

MLB - Value Index - April 15

How can we talk about baseball when we are coming off a masterful Tiger Woods' Masters victory and the airing of the first episode of the final season of Game of Thrones? Like, it's a little hard to focus coming off of these things on Sunday. While…

MLB Value Index - Opening Day (Main)

The crack of the bat. The pop of the glove. The crunch of the dirt. The sounds of baseball. And when we use the word baseball, that must mean one thing. Opening Day has arrived. And the grind begins. The daily fantasy grind. 180…

MLB Value Index - August 11

Back at it for a full-slate Friday, we are! Make picks, I will. Talk like Yoda, I'll stop. We have 15 games in the majors and pitching is lackluster. There's one clear top option and he makes today's Index. But before we get to the picks,…

MLB Value Index - July 28

I really hate slates where I feel I can't spend all of my salary. That was my approach last night. I didn't want Lester and Archer seemed too expensive for a road trip to Yankee Stadium. I rostered Godley and Flexen mostly and had some hedge…

MLB Value Index - June 18

To give you an idea of tonight's pitching options, here's what is available. A 44-year-old hefty Colon... A 38-year-old journeyman getting his second start of the season... A 38-year-old veteran, whose lost some zip on his pitches, coming…

MLB Value Index - May 22

Happy Monday everyone! This is an especially great Monday for myself because it's the last Monday of the school year, and by this time next week, I'll be listening to Alice Cooper on repeat. That is a humble brag, so if you have to work…

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 12

The Nationals can suck it. Calling that game last night after lock, after 30 minutes since its scheduled start, immediately announcing A.J. Cole's start would be skipped, and with no threat of rain the rest of the night and AFTER the bulk…

MLB Value Index - All Day

Daily Overlay decided we would cover all baseball slates during the week, so here we are with our first split slate of May and of this week. For Value Index purposes, we will do all picks I like today in one write-up. Because i am doing it…
