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.
Well we couldn't really have asked for more on opening day could we? The DFS MLB Playbook returned and immediately caught fire as players like Edwin Encarnacion, Dustin Pedroia, Evan Longoria, Howie Kendrick, Joc Pederson, Bryce Harper and Sonny Gray carried us to a huge windfall to welcome in the 2015 season. I did not miss a cash in any one of my 37 contests played across three DFS sites. Now that is probably never going to happen again, but this hand has started out hot so let's ride it for as long as we can.
Here is the DFS MLB Playbook for Tuesday April 7th. There are eight games across MLB tonight so pitching is a little thin but there are plenty of bats to help us make up ground.
