Brandon Marsh literally had no clue how he caught a fly ball on the warning track in right-center field during the Phillies 6-0 win over the Seattle Mariners yesterday. With the Phillies leading 1-0 and Zack Wheeler in the midst of pitching an absolute masterclass on the mound, Mariners’ second baseman Jorge Polanco crushed a baseball deep into the sunny sky at T-Mobile Park.

A common mistake novice MLB DFS players make is treating it like fantasy baseball — simply trying to predict who will do the best on a given slate. This is fine for cash games, but GPPs are more complex. GPPs require more thought. We need to stack certain offenses, we need high-probability plays, and we need contrarian upside to help us separate from the rest of the field. This is how we make the big bucks! Simply put, we are playing the game of DFS, not fantasy baseball.

The weather is downright ugly this week to start the Wyndham Championship, but not in a way that we can use to our advantage. Tropical Storm Debby is set to dump over three inches of rain in the area Thursday, which would mean a Friday start at best this week. When you consider that amount of rain plus overnight rain, this event might not start until Friday or Saturday depending on how well the course drains.
