RIP DraftStreet...2010-2014

It has been nearly a week since we have produced a DFS Playbook. In that time we've seen the #3 DFS site (DraftStreet) gobbled up by the #2 DFS site (DraftKings) in a move that is shocking yet should be good in the long run for DFS players. There is a lot to say about this acquisition but this is not the time nor the place. We need LINEUPS!! 

I would be lying if I didn't say that I felt a little rusty this morning when I began going through my research. One of the things I love to use in daily fantasy baseball are hitters who are just heating up. After four days with no baseball, everybody is now at a zero balance which makes it more difficult. 

So today we are going to use a lot of historical numbers as well as some players who present great upside for the value they present. We're looking at guys who are hitting higher in the lineup and offer multiple HR or SB potential. Check back here throughout the evening right up until roster lock. 

Remember that for more information on how to use the DFS Playbook or how to form your own general DFS strategy, check out our DFS Strategies section of the Fantasy Alarm website.
