MLB Value Index - August 15

Today is a very pretty slate. We have nearly a full slate of games with the Astros and Indians playing early for the second day in a row. But 14 games is basically a full slate and there are some solid pitching options at the top and in the…

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 - August 1

The trade deadline has come and gone. My boy Yu Darvish is no longer a Ranger, shipped to the Dodgers for a handful of prospects. A few other mid-tier to minor transactions took place, but nothing more noteworthy than the departure of Yu from…

MLB Value Index - July 25

Boy I hate to see the big boys go down. Clayton Kershaw, especially. He was placed on the 10-day DL on Monday and will be out 4-6 weeks. He's the best pitcher in baseball and we don't get to watch him pitch or use him in daily fantasy…

MLB Value Index - July 7

Well it's good to be back! Back home. Back to baseball DFS. And back to writing the Value Index. It's been a 3-day hiatus for myself as the wife and daughter went and visited family. The trip went well and culminated to a mountain of puke…

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 - June 12

Hope everyone had a great weekend, spent some time with family, had some time to chill and relax and hopefully won some money in DFS. We get back to the grind today as Monday provides a 9-game slate in the majors. But before we get to today's…

MLB Value Index - June 7

Today we have a split slate of games for hump day, but there are only 3 afternoon games to target for DFS, so we are going to focus solely on the night slate. For tonight's slate, we don't have Kershaw or Coors to choose from but we do have…

MLB Value Index - June 6

It's Tuesday and tonight we have a full 15-game slate of action in the majors. Roster construction is going to be very interesting today because we have a lot of stud pitchers, a game in Coors, a game at Chase, a game at Globe Life, a game…

MLB Value Index - May 19

Thanks to today's day game in Chicago, we don't have to factor in the wind at Wrigley in our lineups tonight. And we only have 14 games to worry about. Only 14. It appears there may be a few games with some weather concerns, but as of this…

MLB Value Index - May 15

Hope everyone had a great weekend, but it is back to the weekly MLB grind here at Daily Overlay. I must say this is a really great time of the year. School is winding down for me (two weeks left!), so that means summertime is upon us and so…

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…
