After a few lean days there with MLB bets, we are back with a whopper of a 15-game slate today.

I am doing my best to keep covering at least all the biggest slates as I also start ramping up for NFL season. I am getting pretty pumped for football, I am not going to lie as I have been doing some drafts and even dabbling in some best ball lately.

Week 1 NFL DFS salaries are out and all the betting lines, too. I think I’ll try to get a first look at NFL Week One out EARLY here as in maybe next week since there’s a chance to perhaps grab some good odds early.

But back to baseball. This is a really fun slate and full of different angles that we could take on games or player props. I like going with a fairly balanced approach so I will try to recommend a little of everything today - and toss in a SGP for those DK players who get that daily boost to use as well.

Remember - sign up for premium access soon and get all my NFL picks for this coming season!

Get 10% off for 1 year

It’s as cheap as $6 a month or 60 for a full year (a great value for those who love to bet on baseball and basketball). I also just might be adding some NHL content this winter, too!


Pitcher Props

I had to axe my pitching chart today as I was having a hard time with Fangraphs’ new layout and I might not be able to include it going forward unless I can fix it. But here is where I am at for pitching props today.
