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.
Hopefully you are listening to the Fantasy Alarm Show RIGHT NOW on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio. I am doing the show and thus will let the Playbook speak for itself.
