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.
We have finally returned to our daily fantasy baseball daily rankings!! We really appreciate your patience in the early part of this season while we work on what we believe will be the best DFS MLB product out there in the DFS MLB Playboo PRO. We are almost ready to launch so please be on the look out for the Playbook PRO this weekend.
Today we have 14 games that we are ranking as the Indians/White Sox day game is not included in these rankings. Remember, that when a player who is listed in the DFS MLB Playbook is out of the lineup or is scratched, check right here to find who the next best replacement is.
Here are the Daily Fantasy Baseball Rankings for Wednesday April 22nd:
