Danny’s Picks for the RealTime 50/50 Challenge, Aug. 25, 2018

Want to take on the Creativesports 2.0 staff, braino-y-braino, at  DFS?

Well, you can indeed at RealTime Sports, matching up against my Creativesports 2.0 mates and me, and get some bragging rights in the process.

Tune in here daily, as we pick up the Creativesports 2.0 gauntlet where you can play our daily 50/50 game ($5) or come right after us — for we will rotate experts — on Fridays in the free Beat the Experts contest. Beat us and you can win $2, and that might be easier than you think!

The weather looks good across the MLB slate aside from Detroit, where we will avoid Tigers and White Sox with relative ease. Let’s also shy away from Royals, Angels and Padres hitters, who are up against Corey Kluber, Justin Verlander and Clayton Kershaw, respectively.

Stephen Piscotty ($2800): The A’s outfielder has slowed down in August after a blistering June and July, but the price is right and he went yard last night against Twins reliever Addison Reed.

Mike Fiers ($4900): Sticking with Oakland, Fiers has continued his breakout season since being swapped from the Tigers. As an Athletic, the righty is 2-0 over three starts with a 1.47 ERA and 0.65 WHIP with 21 strikeouts against one walk.
