10/25 DFS Winners – Win Daily’s Javier Prellezo – Again!

Is there any DFS player hotter than Javier Prellezo? Last Thursday, he qualified for the NHL Live Final from DraftKings. Sunday night, Javy won $20,000 on FanDuel by having three of the Top 15 spots in the Sunday Night Football tournament. On Monday night, he tied with fellow Win Daily DFS Expert David Jones for the top spot in the NFL Showdown tournament and won over $2,200. Then on Tuesday night, he netted another $2,200 in the NBA season opener. On Wednesday he took down multiple NBA tournaments with a $12,000 top prize on each. Now last night, he added another $15,000 by taking five of the top six spots in the Thursday NHL Breakaway tournament. Javy is incredibly talented with multi-sport DFS expertise and you can read his work in his DFS Diamonds columns. Become a Premium member and win like Javy today.

10/25 Win Daily DFS Winner – David Jones Wins Third Consecutive NFL Showdown

Win Daily Premium Subscribers get access to two of the hottest DFS Pros in the Slack Chat and with their regular articles. David Jones is the undisputed King of the NFL Showdown, as he won his third consecutive single game GPP on Thursday!

10/25 DFS Winner: Pekka Rinne

Here is a snippet from The Daily Hot Shot by Allan Fabrykant. Rinne had 23 saves during his shutout victory over the Minnesota Wild. He also is in the Top 5 in goals against with 1.98 so be on the lookout for some good performances out of Rinne.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Rinne is 6-0-1 as a starting goaltender for the Predators. He is tied for the second-most wins of any goaltender right now in the league and has been protecting the net with a .931 save percentage. He is seeing 29 shots per game, which isn’t too high and Nashville’s attack will score enough to win. Expect Rinne to remain one of the top goaltenders and be a great play in DFS for a large chunk of the season.

10/25 Betting Winner: John L.

Here is a little chunk of the N.Y. Prop Exchange article by John L. (@MLBMovingAvg) where he highlighted Kirk Cousins. Cousins went 23-of-26 for 285 yards against the Washington Redskins on Thursday Night Football. The 88.5 completion percentage was the highest in franchise history with a minimum of 20 pass attempts. Be sure to check out the article as it gives some Sunday prop bets as well. The Prop Exchange has been hitting regularly and is another way to make a nice profit as a Premium Gold member.

10/25 DFS Winner: Derrick Rose

Here is a snippet from the NBA DFS Positional Breakdown written by Joel Bartilotta. Derrick Rose came off the bench against the Atlanta Hawks in the Pistons home opener. Rose finished with a team-high 27 points on 11-of-16 shooting in 25 minutes. He also added a rebound and three assists with three turnovers.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Rose is averaging 22.5 points in the first two games for the Pistons off the bench. Also, his passing ability has been great. He is showing flashes of his MVP season so far with how he is shooting the mid-range shot. Rose eventually could take the starting point guard job and with Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin, have some crazy DFS stat lines.

10/25 Betting Winner: Capper Steve

Here is a snippet from our Sports Betting Picks article. If you followed Capper Steve’s NHL and NCAAF picks, you would be up 5.08 units. Capper Steve is one of the best in the business of picking games and ending up profitable.

10/24 DFS Winners – Win Daily’s Javier Prellezo – Again!

Another takedown of a tournament for our own Javier Prellezo. Javy has been one of the hottest DFS players on the planet as of late. Last Thursday, he qualified for the NHL Live Final from DraftKings. Sunday night, Javy won $20,000 on FanDuel by having three of the Top 15 spots in the Sunday Night Football tournament. On Monday night, he tied with fellow Win Daily DFS Expert David Jones for the top spot in the NFL Showdown tournament and won over $2,200. Then on Tuesday night, he netted another $2,200 in the NBA season opener. Last night, he took down multiple NBA tournaments with a $12,000 top prize on each. Javy is incredibly talented with multi-sport DFS expertise and you can read his work in his DFS Diamonds columns. You can also get 24/7 access to him and the rest of our DFS experts if you are a Premium member.

10/24 DFS Winner: Andrei Vasilevskiy

Here is a snippet of The Daily Hot Shot by Allan Fabrykant. Andrei Vasilevskiy had a good game against the Pittsburgh Penguins when he saved 37 of 39 shots, including one as time expired to clinch the victory. Vasilevskiy has a 2.99 goals against so far this season and five victories.

Outlook for the rest of the season: As stated above, Vasilevskiy has a 2.99 goals against. That ranks 30th in the NHL out of all goalies with at least four games played. He has yet to record a shutout this season as well, so he is going to need to play a lot better. Andrei also has a save percentage of .907, which needs to improve if the Lightning want to be successful for the remainder of the season and beyond.

10/24 Betting Winner: John L.

https://twitter.com/MLBMovingAvg/status/1187219000771710977?s=20

John L. (@MLBMovingAvg) had an incredible day betting on World Series Game 2. The Nationals and Astros were tied 2-2 after five innings and the Nats were able to dominate late and win 12-3. All four of these bets hit and you could check out John’s work here, where he focuses mainly on NFL prop bets with the N.Y. Prop Exchange.

10/24 DFS Winner: Kurt Suzuki

Here is a snippet from the World Series Showdown and Prop Picks article by Antonio D’Arcangelis. Kurt Suzuki had a solid game at the plate, going 2-for-5 with a home run against the Houston Astros in Game 2. Suzuki is a huge reason why the Nationals took a 2-0 series lead to Washington and have the Astros on the ropes. It’s one thing to have a solid game but another when you do it against Justin Verlander. He was 1-for-23 in the postseason entering this game and was definitely a value pick for anyone that jumped on Suzuki in their lineups.

10/24 Betting Winner: Capper Steve

Here is a snippet from the Sports Betting Picks that Capper Steve does every day. Four of the five picks hit as Portland lost by eight. If you took all these picks with the units provided, you would have had an additional 4.6 units. Reading his articles should be a part of your daily routine before placing any wagers.

10/23 DFS MLB: DK Showdown (8:07p.m. EST)

The game: World Series Game 2 – Washington Nationals atHouston Astros, 8:07 p.m. EST

10/23 DFS SP Strategy and Picks

Last night’s top Showdown entries had Max Scherzer, but noGerrit Cole, as the Houston ace struggled to put way batters, gave up five ERand notched just six Ks. It also had Sean Doolittle, so my lineups with Coleand Osuna yesterday were on the right track – I just had the wrong winning team.

Stephen Strasburg’s postseason numbers are almost asridiculous as Cole’s were heading into last night’s matchup, so I’ll considerhim the analog to Cole’s 1A yesterday. The Nationals hurler has less than one-quarterof the postseason experience that Justin Verlander does, and his metrics in thatmuch smaller sample are superior:

Strasburg: 1.10 ERA, 2.07 SIERA, 12.51 K/9,1.10 BB/9, 0.90 WHIP, 35.6 K% (41.0 IP)
Verlander: 3.26 ERS, 3.09 SIERA, 9.98 K/9, 2.75BB/9, 1.03 WHIP, 27.8 K% (176.2 IP)

We’ll have shares of both in our lineup builds, though I’llbe taking more Strasburg in cash games given Verlander’s propensity to serve upthe long ball:

Verlander has a career postseason 1.17 HR/9 and0.93 for his entire career
Strasburg has a career postseason 0.44 HR/9 and0.89 for his entire career

I still think playingboth in cash games is viable, and I’ll shift more GPP ownership to Verlander.

Morenotes:

Verlander has faced these Nats hitters 274times and yielded just 4 homers to them, posting a .248/.306/.365 slash, withAsdrubal Cabrera having the most experience and success (21-for-76 with 3 HR).
The Astros are again about one-run favoriteswith an implied total of about 4.0 to the Nats’ 3.0. Last night’s game finishedtwo runs over the projected total (one for each team, but reversed), so it’snot worth throwing these numbers out just yet.
Once again, stay tuned to the starting lineups– we could get some value from unlikely sources.

10/23 DFS Hitters

We’ll stick to the overall theme of the playoffs here, as that seemed to play out last night save for the solo shot by Ryan Zimmerman and the better plate approach from Yordan Alvarez, which we can get behind a bit more here. My player writeups for yesterday were a bit long because it was Game 1, so I’ll stick to one key thought for each player here and you can refer back to my previous writeup if you need more info.

10/23 DFS Washington Nationalsbats

AnthonyRendon (DK $14,400/$9,600)

Rendon has not faced Verlander before and is still a dangerous batin the heart of a solid lineup. We have to consider him, especially since he’sbeen quiet and has no trouble hitting RHPs. His price jumped $200 too (because theSPs don’t cost as much), so he’s definitely in play for GPPs.

TreaTurner (DK $13,500/$9000)

My writeup on Turner wasspot-on yesterday and it applies again today. If he’s on base, he’s in business.And he does have power (.200 ISO in 2019). I’ll have shares, though maybe notas much as last night.

JuanSoto (DK $13,200/$8,800)

Again – the analysis wassolid, but I didn’t trust him enough to warrant the top captain spot in my GPPbuilds. He’s a hitter who thrives on confidence, but his ownership will bethrough the roof for Game 2. You’ll need some shares, just don’t go overboard.

SpotlightValue: Kurt Suzuki (DK $9,300/$6,200)

Last night’s valuespotlight didn’t play, but his replacement did, and he hit a homer. Tonight, werun the same risk if they decide to roll out Yan Gomes instead of Suzuki – who’s14-for-42 career off Verlander with just 4 Ks – a stat which stuck out as muchas any considering Verlander’s 24.7% career K rate.

Other options: Howie Kendrick (DK $12,900/$8,600), Adam Eaton (DK $10,500/$7,000), Victor Robles (DK $10,200/$6,800)

10/23 DFS Houston Astros bats

JoseAltuve (DK $14,700/$9,800)

Altuve ended up 1-for-5last night and still reached double digit points on DK, so a multi-hit gamemakes him worthy of usage in our builds, and consideration as the main hitterfor our Astros-heavy lineups. He’s 2-for-5 off Strasburg in his career, whichain’t much – but it’s a start.

AlexBregman (DK $14,100/$9,400)

The guy is due. Bregman took a gift pitch from Sean Doolittle right over the heart of the plate yesterday because he was overthinking location and looking away – and he’ll likely not make that same mistake again. I trust his bat and his approach, so we’re going back to the well with him against Strasburg (2-for-3 career).

Yordan Alvarez (DK $12,300/$8,200)

I’m fully aboard the Alvarez redemption train, as theyoung slugger went 2-for-3 in Game 1 and could easily break through with adinger tonight. He did hit 27 in 357 ABs during the regular season, and he’s beenon a homerless slump for far too long.

CarlosCorrea (DK $12,000/$8,000)

Correa was one of the fewAstros that actually looked overmatched by Scherzer last night (1-for-5, 3 Ks),even though the Nats’ pitcher didn’t have his best stuff. It’s possibly hisback was bothering him a bit, so I’m going to reduce my shares, which weremassive for Game 1.

SpotlightValue: Robinson Chirinos (DK $7,500/$5,000)

It’s catcher day in Game 2 of the World Series. Thevalue is there, and the guy has plenty of power (18 HRs in 388 ABs in 2019).Catchers also have a knack for hitting mistake pitches very well, and Strasburgdoes make mistakes.

Other 10/23 DFS options: Yuri Gurriel (DK $11,700/$7,800), George Springer (DK $13,800/$9,200), Michael Brantley (DK $10,800/$7,200), Josh Reddick (DK $8,100/$5,400)

10/23 Betting Winner: Hoop21

Hoop21 took the leap and joined the family and saw a great return in his first day here.

10/23 DFS Winner: Juan Soto

Juan Soto has one of the biggest players in the MLB Postseason and has continued his dominance in Game 1 of the World Series. Soto went 3-for-4 with a double, home run and three RBI against probable A.L. Cy Young winner Gerrit Cole. His performance was a huge reason why the Washington Nationals took Game 1 of the series and he is just 20 years old. Expect Juan Soto to have a big series for the Nats and be a key factor if they end up winning their first World Series in franchise history.

10/23 DFS Winner: Capper Steve

Here is a snippet from Capper Steve’s Sports Betting Picks for yesterday’s slate of games from both NHL and NBA. If you followed each of the bets listed above, you would have added an extra 4.5 units to your bankroll. Depending on how much one unit is for you, you could be adding a hefty amount of money into your pocket.

10/23 Betting Winner: Win Daily’s Brandon C. Williams

For those of you unfamiliar with Monkey Knife Fight, here is a link to an article written by Joel Bartiolla about it. Essentially, it is a prop picking website and Brandon C. Williams hit on both of his picks. LeBron James ended up finishing with 18 points and Kawhi Leonard had 30 in the first night of NBA action. Both of Brandon’s picks were correct and would have landed you three times your original bet (+300 odds). With the NBA season officially underway, expect a lot more winners to be here on a daily basis.

10/22 DFS Winners – Win Daily’s Javier Prellezo & David Jones Tie for NFL Showdown Top Spot

https://twitter.com/windailydfs/status/1186488110932254720?s=20

For the second day in a row both guys ended up on this article for cashing out big on Showdown slates. They tied each other for the top prize in the NFL Monday Million. David ended up in the top spot in an NFL DFS Showdown for the second consecutive day and the third time this season! Winning is a lifestyle for Win Daily and it is time if you have not become a Premium member to join today and access Dan and Javier’s advice. Javy is a multi-sport DFS player that writes regularly, including his DFS Diamonds article. David is one of the hottest DFS players on the planet right now as well.

In addition, both are regularly on our Slack chennel, where you can talk to all our DFS experts and the rest of Win Daily’s family.

10/22 Betting Winner: New England Patriots Defense

Here is a little piece from our Cash with the Flash article where he highlighted the Monday Night Football action. New England dominated the game from the opening kickoff and their defense was one of the biggest reasons for that. The defense forced six turnovers last night, including four interceptions and showed why they are considered elite. The Patriots sit as the top defense in the NFL at the end of Week 7 and the second-best against both the run and passing attacks.

Outlook for the rest of the season: This Patriots defense is scary good this season. Bill Belichick knows how to take a team’s biggest threat out of the game and did so with Le’Veon Bell last night. Bell had just 76 scrimmage yards and the entire Jets offense were unwatchable at times. There is a reason this Patriots team sits at 7-0 and shows no signs of stopping. Consider them almost a lock to return to the Super Bowl if their defense can continue this dominance.

10/22 DFS Winner: Travis Konecny

Chosen as one of the stacks on The Daily Hot Shot article written by DFS Pro Javier Prellezo, Travis Konecny had a good game against the Vegas Golden Knights. Konecny scored in the first period on a power play and added an assist as well.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Konecny is not known for having big point totals by the end of the year, with his career-high being 49, but he is on the way to breaking that mark. He is a point machine, having one in four of his last five games. With 10 points in seven games played, he is tied with names like Alex Ovechkin. Expect a new career-high in points and assists for Konecny this season and to be a solid choice in NHL DFS.

10/22 DFS Winner: Sony Michel

Sony Michel had a heck of a night against the New York Jets on Monday Night Football. He finished with 19 carries for 42 yards and three touchdowns on the night. If the Patriots can get Michel going during the game, it opens up a lot for their offense. Now with reports that Mohamed Sanu will also be in Foxborough, the running game of New England has even less pressure on it.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Don’t look now but with this performance, he matched his season total of six touchdowns that he had last year. It would be nice to see his 3.3 yards per carry be a little higher, but he is doing his job in this Patriots offense. Their next matchup will be against the Cleveland Browns at home on Sunday. Cleveland allows the third-most rushing yards per game this season at 154.0 so expect a heavy dose of running.

10/21 DFS Winner – Win Daily’s David Jones wins second 2019 NFL Showdown tournament

If you thought your fantasy team had a good day, take a look at our very own David Jones, who has been winning regularly in DFS for the last two-plus months. For the second time this season, he finished first in a Sunday Night Showdown tournament, last pulling off the trick in Week 3. David, maybe the hottest DFS Pro in the industry right now, took down the NFL Primetime Showdown and netted himself a little under $3,800. David has won over $200,000 since mid-August and is frequently in our Slack channel, which is available to all Premium members. You can also check out his GPP picks every week and watch him on our Sunday Live Stream on Gamedays from 10 to 1130 a.m. ET.

10/21 DFS Winner – Win Daily’s Javier Prellezo

Our newest DFS Pro, Javier Prellezo, had a big day on FanDuel, placing Top 15 in three contests and winning $20,000. Javier has been winning regularly since coming aboard, as he also landed an NHL Live Final ticket last week and cashed out over $6,500 on an MLB Showdown slate in the NLCS. Javier had three different lineups place in the winning mix on FD as he readies for NBA this week. A multi-sport DFS star, you can chat with him regularly in our Premium Gold Slack Chat in addition to reading his regular articles and listening to his advice on our podcasts.

10/21 Betting Winner: N.Y, Prop Exchange from Win Daily

Our N.Y. Prop Exchange, aka MLB Moving Averages, was hitting big on Prop Plays on the site and in Slack. You can get access to John L.’s regularly winning Prop Plays as a Premium Gold subscriber via his articles or in Slack. John’s Latavius Murray call was particularly daring.

10/21 Betting Winner – Cash with the Flash

Our Cash with the Flash appeared on the SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio Win Daily show and made multiple winning predictions for NFL Sunday. Read more here.

10/21 DFS Winner: San Francisco Defense

Both guys chose the San Francisco 49ers as their top defensive team in the NFL on the Cheatsheet. The 49ers had a shutout and gave up just 154 total yards against the Washington Redskins. Defensive tackle Julian Taylor recovered an Adrian Peterson fumble.

Outlook for the rest of the season: The 49ers defense is on another level through six games as they have the best passing and total defense in the NFL. The unit is a huge reason why the 49ers are now 6-0 and don’t need their offense to do much in order to pick up wins. This was their first shutout of the year and probably won’t be their last. Expect the defense to continue dominating as they face lesser-tier offenses in the next few weeks.

10/21 DFS Winner: Chase Edmonds

Chase Edmonds had a huge day on the ground yesterday afternoon against the New York Giants. He finished with 27 carries for 126 yards and three touchdowns. In addition he had a pair of catches for 24 yards. With David Johnson injured, expect a lot of carries for Edmonds and some similar production.

Outlook for the rest of the season: With Johnson down, this was Edmonds’ first game with double-digit carries. He almost matched his season total in yards against a subpar Giants defense. Expect the Cardinals to give Edmonds a lot of touches going forward if David Johnson continues to battle an ankle problem. He should be a change of pace back otherwise.

10/21 DFS Winner: Marvin Jones Jr.

Here is a screenshot from NFL’s Next Gen Stats page of Marvin Jones Jr against the Minnesota Vikings yesterday. He finished with 10 receptions for 93 yards and four touchdowns. This was definitely a breakout performance for Jones, who hasn’t been getting many yards this season thus far.

Outlook for the rest of the season: The Lions need to target Jones more as the 10 receptions almost matched his last four games (11 catches). This also was his second-highest yardage game of the season. Expect Jones to get more action as the season progresses.

10/19 DFS MLB: DK Showdown(8:08 p.m. EST)

10/19 DFSSP Strategy and Picks

The only pitcher I’ll have more than 10 percent exposure to herewill be Jose Urquidy, who ha a shot at pitching 2-3 innings of high-strikeout actionagainst a Yankees team that can pile up Ks and just had to fly back to Houston.Urquidy has 4 Ks in 1.2 IP of postseason action and finished the regular seasonwith a 24% K rate. He’s an option, I don’t like the Yankees options facing anAstros team that’s going to have great ABs.

Let’s move on to the hitters. That’s what we’re doing on FanDuelanyway – where our first sample lineup from 10/18 performed quite well.

The top hitter picks for the 10/19 DFS Showdown are going to bepretty balanced, leaning toward the Astros, especially without much worry aboutforcing in pitchers. Unfortunately, all the pricing for hitters is up and verytight – since we have no aces on the mound.

10/19 DFS New York Yankeesbats

Gleyber Torres (DK $14,400/$9,600)

Just one hit (a double) last night, but he’s got an excellent plate approach with the requisite kind of discipline that leads to production in key spots. None of the Yankees have faced Urquidy before, so I trust approach as much as anything here. I’m going right back to the well even though the price is up a tad.

DJ LeMahieu (DK $15,600/$10,400)

The ownership will be higher, but so is the price (higher than JoseAltuve!) – so I’m going to build a few lineups with Torres, LeMahieu and avalue Yankees bat, with a balanced group of Astros I like. Yesterday’s leadoffbomb may have been a Yankee Stadium special, but LeMahieu is aggressive at theplate and has excellent protection in the lineup, which coming back around sometimesprovides him ample baserunners to knock in a few (107 RBI in 2019). I might belower owned than last night, but he’s still part of my core build.

Gary Sanchez (DK $10,800/$7,200)

The price shot upbecause of the lag from Game 4’s HR, but I’m not off Gary. Hitters like thisneed to bust through their bad stints, and this certainly is a park where hehas an advantage, as the HR Park Factor for away RHBs was 156 for Minute Maidin 2019. If he’s in the lineup, I’m using him.

Aaron Hicks (DK $9,900/$6,600) and Aaron Judge ($13,800/$9,200)

The Aarons will be popular, and while I like them both in this matchup, the prices are also much higher. I’ll be around 20-40 percent ownership for both of them but they’re not core builds because of ownership (Hicks) and the price jump (Judge).

Otheroptions: Didi Gregorius (DK $8,100/$5400), Brett Gardner (DK $11,100/$7,400)

10/19 DFS Houston Astrosbats

Alex Bregman (DK $16,200/$10,800)

You can only avoid Bregman’sbat for so long, and he hit some balls on the screws last night that were rightat guys. He’s going to avoid high ownership because of the price, and he’s probablygoing to get a couple ABs against J.A. Happ tonight. The entire Houston lineupbrutalizes Happ, and I want the ringleaders (Bregman, Altuve and Yordan Alvarez)in as many lineups as they’ll fit.

George Springer (DK $15,900/$10,600) andCarlos Correa ($12,600/$8,400)

My outlook on both of these guys is similar – I’m going to beusing them together in stacks with Bregman and Altuve when possible, but mostlygrabbing one or the other. Springer makes more sense as a cash game play thanCorrea, who I like better for GPPs, even with Correa’s price staying the same.

JoseAltuve (DK $15,300/$10,200)

Altuve is itching for another breakout like he in Game 3, and he’sa much better hitter at home (.306/.372/.608 slash this season at home). I’llhave more shares than last night in GPPs, especially since the salary didn’tjump much.

Other10/18 DFS options: Martin Maldonado ($5,400/$3,600) Michael Brantley (DK $11,400/$7,600),Yordan Alvarez ($14,100/$9,400)

10/19 DFS Hitters for FDSingle-game

The prices haven’t changed much so we can tackle this similarly tolast night, though I’ll be using more Astros. I was very Yankees-heavy lastnight and it worked out.

Monkey Knife Fight Picks of the Day – Play These Picks Today Here and Get 100 Percent Bonus!

Aaron Judge (+0.5), Jose Altuve (+0.5) and Gleyber Torres (+0.5)

I prefer Judge because he’s just as much of a threat to score as Springer and benfits from more RBI chances because of the Yankees 9 and 1 hitters.

Altuve is my pick because Yankee pitchers have been less careful with him than Bregman, who they’ve been staying away from. I really like the +0.5 here too,

I can’t rely at all on Stanton, and Torres is my guy. Let’s take it down!!!

10/18 DFS MLB: DK Showdown(7:08 p.m. EST)

10/18 DFS SP Strategy and Picks

Astros ace JustinVerlander has the edge in upside and in most scenarios will go deeper into thisgame than Yankees LHP James Paxton – though the Yankees have a slight edge in theimplied totals. You don’t need both pitchers in this one, and I’ll likely have someexposure to both starters, even with Paxton considerably cheaper.

Justin Verlander (DK $18,000 CPT, $12,000UTIL)

There’s always the possibility that Verlander throws one of his trademark gems against the Bronx Bombers on their home turf, but the righthander’s vulnerability to the long ball makes him a risky option at such a high price. The veteran hurler – a future Hall of Famer who’s posted the highest K/9 rates of his entire 15-year career in 2018 (12.20 K/9) and 2019 (12.11 K/9) – has struggled a bit this postseason but struck out 12 batters in six innings as recently as Sept. 28. If you’re building Verlander lineups with him at Captain, the implication is that you’ll be fading Yankee bats, so you’ll probably need to employ some creativity if you also want the big Houston bats.

James Paxton (DK $12,900 CPT, $8,900 UTIL)

The price is right, and the upside is there, but Paxton hasn’tgiven us his best so far this postseason. He has, however, struck out 11batters in 7 IP, and although the Astros don’t whiff all that often, they’lllikely come out aggressive at the plate with a 3-1 lead in the series. IfPaxton’s stuff is on point, he could easily post double-digit Ks over 5-6innings of work.

10/18 DFS Hitters

Who’s going to be the hero of Game 5, if not one of the startingpitchers? Here are my top hitter picks for the 10/18 DFS Showdown.

10/18 DFS New York Yankees bats

Gleyber Torres (DK $12,300/$8,200))

If he’d come up big with the bases loaded against Ryan Pressly in the fifth inning last night, he’d probably be the odds-on favorite for World Series MVP heading into Game 5, but the 22-year-old is still looking to bolster his batting resume with a standout performance in Yankee Stadium. He’s still slashing .345/.406/.793 this postseason, with the only knock being his relatively futility against Verlander thus far (1-for-12 with 5 Ks).

DJ LeMahieu (DK $13,500/$9,000)

Torres hasn’t had much success against Verlander, but LeMahieuis 5-for-15 career with a homer and just two Ks. He’s got Aaron Judge hitting rightbehind him and should get some pitches to hit as the Yankees leadoff hitter onFriday night.

Gary Sanchez (DK $7,800/$5,200)

He parked one into the left field stands last night and is massively underpriced – even in this difficult matchup against Verlander, who has owned him (2-for-19, 5 Ks). Gary is still pretty scary, though, and he’ll be a chalky value play in this Showdown. It’ll be interesting to see if Aaron Boone moves him up a little further in the lineup tonight.

Other options: Didi Gregorius (DK $8,100/$5400), Aaron Judge ($11,400/$7,600), Aaron Hicks ($8,400/$5,600)

10/18 DFS Houston Astros bats

George Springer (DK $14,100/$9,400)

Last night’s homer – Springer’s 13th career postseason HR in 166 at-bats – was a powerful statementby the leadoff man that he’s ready for another big night in Game 5, and hismatchup against Paxton and subsequent relievers should give him plenty of chancesto make his mark. The price is high, but he’ll be the main Astros hitter I havein my builds.

Carlos Correa ($12,600/$8,400)

Like Springer, Correa hit his second homer of the postseasonand the 10^th of his postseason career. Springer and Correa form quitethe power tandem, as that was sixth time those two have homered in the samegame in the postseason – an all-time MLB record, according to a tweet by STATS.Correa has good numbers vs. LHP (138 career wRC+, .371 wOBA) and Paxton in particular(9-for-22 career).

Jose Altuve (DK $15,000/$10,000)

It’ll be tough to fit in Altuve at the Captain spot, but he’scertainly viable in Astros-heavy lineups that fade Verlander. He’s slashing.351/.385/.730 this postseason with four homers and seven runs scored in just39 plate appearances.

Other 10/18 DFS options: Michael Brantley (DK $10,200/$6,800), Alex Bregman (DK $14,700/$9,800), Yordan Alvarez ($13,800/$9,200), Martin Maldonado ($6,000/$4,000)

Note: Robinson Chirinos may sit after he got banged up last night behind the plate, so stay tuned to who’s donning the “tools of ignorance” for Houston tonight.

10/18 DFS Hitters for FDSingle-game

Without pitchers in the player pool, there’s a need for evenmore variance in your lineup building. Try to leave a few bucks on the table inthe larger contests and don’t worry about having the most expensive player inthe MVP slot.

MVP (2x) – LeMahieu ($7,500)

Justin Verlander Under 7.5 Strikeouts & James Paxton Over 4.5 Strikeouts (3x WIN)

Verlander would normally be a pretty safe bet to reach eight Ks, but the more the Yankees see of the veteran, the more they’ll provide excellent ABs. I expect Verlander to challenge hitters in Game 5 and as a result, there will be more balls put in play early in counts.

We’re also counting on Paxton giving us his best stuff. As I mentioned before, he’s whiffed 11 batters in 7 IP this postseason, and I expect him to go a little deeper into this game than he did in Game 2.

10/18 DFS and Betting Winners: Win Daily Staffer Notches NHL Live Final Ticket

10/18 DFS Winner – Javier Prellezo

https://twitter.com/Javi_Prellezo/status/1185079239336316928?s=20

Congratulations are in order for our own Javier Prellezo as he won the second qualifier for the NHL Live Final on DraftKings. In addition to a trip to Nashville, he also added $12,500 in his bankroll. Javier is active on our NHL Slack Channel, available to all Premium members. Be sure to check out his DFS Diamonds articles as the NFL, NHL and PGA seasons progress.

10/18 DFS Winner: Carter Hutton

As Allan Fabrykant highlighted in the Daily Hot Shot, Carter Hutton has had an excellent start to the season. Going against the Los Angeles Kings, Hutton had 47 saves and picked up his second consecutive shutout. Now at 5-0-0 this season, Hutton is proving to be one of the top goalies so far this season.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Carter Hutton has been phenomenal this season, with 1.70 goals allowed per game. Four of his seven goals allowed came in one game so he has proven he can be an elite goaltender. Expect Hutton to be a big target in NHL DFS for the next few Buffalo Sabres games.

10/18 Betting Winner – Phil Naessens

Phil had a great night betting on the NHL as all three of these bets ended up cashing out. His daily article, Cash with the Flash, highlighted these as his top picks for the NHL slate. Phil covers all sports in his bets and is available to all Premium members of the Win Daily family. As a member, you get a myriad of benefits including 24/7 access to our DFS experts on our Slack channel. If you are tired of losing money, give us a try!

10/18 DFS Winner: Tyreek Hill

Even though there was no players with an incredible statistical game on Thursday Night Football, Tyreek Hill had a solid day. He had three catches for 74 yards and a touchdown, thrown by the backup quarterback, Matt Moore.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Even though Hill has not had that huge game we know he is capable of, he is putting decent numbers up. His production depends on the health of Pat Mahomes, which was injured in the second quarter last night. With the questionable secondary of the Green Bay Packers and an extended week of preparation, expect Hill to have a huge day or two in the upcoming weeks.

10/18 DFS Winner: Kansas City Defense

The Kansas City Chiefs had a solid game against the Denver Broncos last night in a divisional matchup. Their defense stepped up, as they allowed just six total points with a touchdown on the opening drive. They allowed 205 yards of total offense and held the Broncos to 1-of-13 on third downs. Kansas City also had nine sacks and two defensive touchdowns.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Kansas City is not an elite defense by any stretch of the imagination, ranking 25th in total defense. However, they allow only 21.4 points per game. They host the Green Bay Packers next Sunday and expect the Chiefs to hold the running game down and make them one dimensional.

10/17 DFS Winner: Evander Kane

https://twitter.com/NHL/status/1184672203993964545?s=20

Evander Kane had one of the best performances of the NHL season thus far last night against the Carolina Hurricanes. He had four points with a hat trick and an assist and made San Jose Sharks history. Kane became the first Shark player in franchise history to have a hat trick in the first period.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Evander Kane isn’t known for scoring throughout his career as his largest total was 30 goals in a season. Performances like these are rare for Kane so do not expect this to be an opening for him to become a scorer. Expect around 25-30 goals by the end of the year,

10/17 DFS Winner: Marvin Bagley III

https://twitter.com/AZFinestMixtap/status/1184703852299218944?s=20

Marvin Bagley III had a huge game against the Melbourne United in a preseason matchup. As you can see in the graphic above, Bagley finished with 30 points, 14 rebounds and three steals on the night. He needs to take this type of performance into the regular season if the Sacramento Kings want to make noise this season.

10/17 DFS Winner: Connor McDavid

Connor McDavid had his fingerprints all over the game against the Philadelphia Flyers last night. McDavid had five points on the night (a goal and four assists).

Outlook for the rest of the season: Conner McDavid has been one of the best players so far this season. He currently leads the NHL in assists (12) and points (17) while sitting in the Top 10 in goals (five). Expect another 100 point season by him.

10/17 DFS Winner: Tim Frazier

Tim Frazier had a solid night for the Detroit Pistons as they took on the Charlotte Hornets in a preseason matchup. Frazier went 15 points, 12 assists, a rebound, a steal and a block on the night. If he is able to play like this during the season and feed Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin, expect big things out of Detroit.
