MLB DFS Strategies: How To Stack 3, 5 + 7 Teams + 3 Pitchers To Win Money
We are using a formula that is not being implemented by anyone else. Granted this theory works way better on FanDuel than on DraftKings, but is also a great GPP maneuver for the bigger totals on DraftKings. We also like the choice between the two sites. Being able to switch off players on DraftKings, and have 15 games per day is conducive to more other player rosters spread out over the field. This system does not mesh well with head to head to double up formulas. It is best used with Quintuple up winnings, or great big jackpots. Your 9, 30 or 63 rosters will all be different – and you’re hoping that one of the variations will be that one to hit it big.
We posted a little while ago on our new MLB Reports MLB DFS strategy. First off I will say that it works far better on FanDuel, and FanPicks than it does on DraftKings, however we will not exclude DK from the discussion – as the payout big if you do hit, but it can be a grind.
The sites where they give you more points for offense is the big deal there.
So what we do is isolate three pitchers (one ace, one mid level and one bargain) who we like for the slate of games. Then based on the team stacks that are good, we decide whether or not to implore 3, 5 or 7 team stacks. Depending on this number determines whether you use 9, 30 or 63 rosters for the night.
Based on what contest you like to use, you must check on the max entries for your selections. We must commonly use 5 stacks with the three pitchers. This gives you the chance to both use DraftKings and FanDuel on equal footing.
Since you must use two pitchers on DraftKings, the three pitchers will be on 66.67% of your lineups, while on FanDuel each chucker is used once for 33.33%. It still stands to reason you need to have 2 of the 3 chuckers to throw well on any given night to turn a profit. If all 3 are good, your chances increase even more. Read the rest of this entry

We are ramping up our coverage on DFS play at MLB Reports, and will include some strategy articles in the forthcoming days and weeks. We come from a high level of handicapping backgrounds, and have been given the go ahead from the braintrust at MLB Reports to start sharing some of these with you.
Of course Chuck Booth (MLB Reports Majority Owner) and I spearheaded this movement back a few years ago with just regular baseball futures. We were not sure if we wanted to go ahead with the MLB DFS Fantasy at all, but were finally convinced for demand by a couple of our BBBA writers (Josh Robbins and Trey Rose). The need is there and we are looking to deliver.
I have played DFS long enough to be the guy who writes the posts here. The gambling philosophy championed by Booth in the 90’s is brilliant for any sources of tournaments or gambling period!
It weaves the Martingale Betting System (progressive betting with the double up theory) and it fosters it with several other techniques so you don’t bet against yourself.

2nd Lineup (Look to hit on the Astros again tonight @ Minute Maid Park)
Last night was burned by Dallas Keuchel not pulling his weight on the mound. I am laying off Collin McHugh tonight, as I feel there is to be lots of runs scored against the Twins – with Alex Meyer on the bump, and McHugh toting an over 6 ERA.
I also am feeling the Nationals breaking out the lumber versus Chris Young, and in particular Bryce Harper, who has had a slower 7 day stretch after a torrid pace the 1st 3 weeks.
I am still going to use the Buster Posey, Hunter Pence tandem versus Jon Moscot.
In order to field a huge amount of firepower, that comes with a Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, George Springer stack versus Meyer, I used bargain bids of the night in Matt Carpenter ($3900) and Brandon Moss ($2700) against 2nd year man Aaron Nola. Read the rest of this entry
Daily Fantasy MLB Picks (DFS) For Draft Kings 5/2/16
Houston starts a huge homestand on Monday versus the Twins and rookie RHP Jose Berrios. I am going with a 4 man offensive stack, and coupling that with Dallas Keuchel throwing at home, where he was 17 – 0 last year in his own park. It is time for the “Stros to play with desperation. They begin play tomorrow at 6 Games already behind the Rangers.

Last week we were keying on the Tigers to have a better luck with their lot of hitters, and while I am still on that bandwagon for week 5 of play, I am going hard on the Astros this next stretch of play.
It is imperative that Houston begins the long journey back to respectability. How better than to start than with the AL worst team in the Minnesota Twins?
I am also high on the San Francisco Giants on Monday night. Buster Posey hit a HR on Sunday, and maybe he will show some power again at the Great American Ball Park.
The Braves play in New York to start off their week, and I am continuing the theme of playing against them every night with the opposing pitcher.
Good thing that Bartolo Colon is only listed at $6700.
I will be aiming heavy opposing the Phillies – with the St. Louis Cardinals in the next couple of days too. Read the rest of this entry
Daily Fantasy MLB Picks (DFS) For Draft Kings 4/29/16: Lineup 2

Chase Field does not get the recognition it deserves right now as an absolute scoring machine. There have been a ton of 10 run game efforts put forth by the D’Backs and their opponents so far this year.
Outside of Coors Field, it is a must play for at least one lineup every night.
So if there is no game in Colorado to do a roster, I am switching it to Arizona if possible. Read the rest of this entry

Welcome to an awesome strategy putting forth for a DraftKings lineup Friday. I have compiled a list of 2 hitters back to back in the heart of the lineup for 4 separate clubs, that are opposing opposite hand pitchers. All four teams I am using guys for are on the road.
I am showcasing the Blue Jays vs Drew Smyly (Joey Bats and EE), the Giants vs Steven Matz (Hunter Pence and Buster Posey, although they may be 4/5 in the lineup), the Nats versus Mike Leake (Bryce Harper and Daniel Murphy) and finally Trevor Story and Nolan Arenado will hit against Robbie Ray.
By picking the road participants solely in the lineup, I am ensuring each batter will hit for the 9 Innings.
Since we are playing DraftKings, the pitchers we are to select aren’t going to receive 12 pts for a win, but I am still taking superior clubs – with the Cubs over the Braves, and the Pirates host the free falling Reds. Read the rest of this entry
MLB DFS Fantasy Draft Picks For DraftKings – 4/28/16: 2nd Lineup (Coors Field Factor)
Coors Field is a beautiful ballpark and often ranked in the top 10 among extreme ballpark chasers. The park even has $4 Rockpile tickets. It is also a haven for DFS wagering.

We are going to run a daily feature of a 2nd lineup every time there is a game played at Coors Field. Lets face it, whatever you did yesterday would not have mattered much unless you had Andrew McCutchen in your roster.
This park continues to serve up fantasy points galore.
So with loading all of the players for stacks between the Rockies and Pirates Thursday (Juan Nicasio @ Tyler Chatwood) I left off the Catchers as who knows who will play on a matinee game on getaway day.
I found a couple of gems in order to save some cash to Start Jake Arrieta as well.
The 1st player is A.J. Pierzynski – who holds a 400 BA lifetime versus Clay Buchholz, and will most likely start.
Has anyone been following this Brandon Drury kid out of Arizona? He can play 2B/3B and OF – and has a 3 Slash so far of .298/.317/.526 – and is perfectly priced at $2200.
Then I used Tyler Wilson at home for the Orioles ($4800) against the White Sox. Chicago just swept the Jays and should be due for a letdown . Baltimore is 7 – 1 at home thus far on the season. Wilson actually won his last start versus the Royals in KC.
Since I only spent a total of $10.200 on those guys. it left me $39800 for the remaining 7 players. Bang, Now I can afford Arrieta, and roster 4 Rockies and 2 Pirates in my Coors Field mandatory lineup
