DFS MLB Playbook PRO: April 6th

Published: Apr 06, 2015

Do you want to learn how to swim away from the sharks? Play daily fantasy baseball over on Fantasy Aces and you’ll be able to start out, learn and win big money in a much more laid back atmosphere where each contest isn’t full of people who play DFS for a living. The folks over at Fantasy Aces work around the clock at helping their players learn, play and win and that is why we have made them our featured DFS destination. Sign up with Fantasy Aces now and you can play against me, Ted Schuster, Ray Flowers, Rick Wolf, Howard Bender and the entire Fantasy Alarm gang just about everyday during the season.

Last year you guys made the DFS MLB Playbook a hit. Although I suppose me and Ted should take a little of the credit as we did post the actual lineups that won us qualifiers to the DFBC & PFBC live final championships in 2014. We also had confirmed winnings of OVER $1.045 million from our users last season. Now whether you use the entire Playbook or just parts of it the thing that was abundantly clear is that this little Playbook or ours helped you win money. That makes us incredibly happy and thankful. For there is nothing more important to us than our users winning and thus we decided not to rest on our 2014 accomplishments.

What you have before you is the very first ever edition of the DFS MLB Playbook PRO. The PRO edition is basically removing the veil of our basic edition of the Playbook and showing you how we came up with the names you see everyday. This tool will also show you which players just missed the cut and why. It also is the only place that breaks down stats, projections and salaries from all three major DFS websites. Remember, this is only the BETA version and there will be significant additional features in the full DFS Playbook PRO. We thought about not posting this because we knew that once we start getting the 2015 data in, this tool will be simply amazing to use on a daily basis.

You can still view the DFS MLB Playbook in its base version everyday throughout the MLB regular season.

So hang in there with us while we work out the kinks and get this thing started. We estimate that we should have our vision complete by the end of the first full weekend of the MLB regular season. PLEASE NOTE: The DFS MLB Playbook PRO will be a monthly subscription service. We will have ways to get free months of the DFS MLB Playbook PRO however so stay tuned.

As always we look forward to your feedback either in the comments section or on Twitter (@Jeff_Mans or @FantasyAlarm).

Here is the PREMIER EDITION of the DFS MLB Playbook PRO: (SALARY & FANTASY POINTS PER GAME FPPG ARE FOR FANTASY ACES IN BETA VERSION)
