Ibson (DK: $4,700): Our first must-have is the Brazilian midfielder who has been on a solid run of fantasy production over the last 7 games. He has averaged over 11 points per game over that time span and his price is still at a very manageable level. He has taken over corner duty for The Loons and the 79 points he has amassed from the 7 games include just 2…
MLB | Must-Haves | 6/24/17
Jose Pirela (FDraft: $7,200 DK: $3,600 FDuel: $3,100): Our first Must-Have of the slate will come from San Diego where Jose Pirela and the Padres play host to Anibal Sanchez and the struggling Detroit Tigers. To the naked eye it has been obvious that the once-elite Anibal Sanchez has simply lost the effective stuff he once had that made him one of the top arms in the American League after…
MLB | Must-Haves | 6/23/17
Mallex Smith (FDraft: $7,200 DK: $3,600 FDuel: $2,900): Smith will be stepping up to the plate today with a huge advantage against Orioles’ right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez in Tampa. Smith brings upside in many ways into tonight’s matchup and is affordable across all sites, making him our first Must-Have of the day. Ubaldo Jimenez has labored through much of the 2017 season and will receive his second consecutive start against the…
MLB | Must-Haves | 6/22/17
Starlin Castro (FDraft: $8,700 DK: $4,500 FDuel: $3,200): Our first Must-Have of the slate will come from Yankee Stadium where Starlin Castro and his Yankees will take on right-hander Jesse Chavez and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Looking at this matchup, we see that we have a double-reverse-splits scenario on our hands. The right-hander Jesse Chavez has endured significant struggles this season against right-handed hitting as evidenced by his…
CFL | Must-Haves | 6/22/17
Emmanuel Arceneaux (DK: $9,600): The first Must-Have for this opening weekend in the CFL is the BC Lions’ top option in their lethal passing game, Manny Arceneaux. Arceneaux and quarterback Jonathon Jennings built up a strong relationship last season in route to Manny posting an absurd line of 115 receptions for 1690 yards and 14 TDs. Though Manny may find it difficult to post similar numbers this year with the…
