A couple of things before we get down on it on this Wednesday afternoon. First of all, I appreciate all of your support for the DFS Playbook and especially your feedback. You guys wanted the Playbook up sooner and so it it done. But in order to not sacrifice the magic recipe that has all of us winning day after day, we are going to be posting an early edition Monday-Saturday and then follow it up about 1.5 hours before the slate of games with a supplement that will focus on value plays only. This way you guys can build your lineups early and make a quick adjustment if need be later on. Again, we appreciate your feedback on the Playbook and ask you to keep it coming. Post your thoughts underneath in the "comments" section or tweet to me directly (@Jeff_Mans).
Also, remember that if you create a new account RIGHT now over at DraftKings ($10 minimum) using our link here, you will receive a FREE 2014 Fantasy Alarm Fantasy Football Draft Guide, NFL Assistant GM In-Season Package and our COMPLETE DFS tools for this coming fantasy football season.
Moving on, yesterday was a bad day. Ted did a good job with the Playbook and all of his research but things just didn't work out the way they normally do. For you new readers this is an important lesson in sticking with the program and believing in what you are doing. No system will ever work out if you punt it after one or even a few bad days. The fact of the matter is that yesterday was the first official losing day the DFS Playbook has had since June 9th. Tonight we get after it again and ride like stallions back into glory!!
What ruined us yesterday was pitching. Julio Teheran, Madison Bumgarner and Wily Peralta each made a mess in their respective underpants. Tonight we pay for two of the best pitchers in the in Chris Sale and Yu Darvish. I am in "building backroll" mode and can promise you that the players below will help you crush your 50/50's (double ups) tonight.
