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!
Checking in with Mother Nature, the weather looks good so far, but check before first pitch at 6:10. We have another 13 game Saturday night slate. Pitching beyond the top two is very weak. So either pay up, or take your chances
James Paxton ($6,800) is one that I am paying up for. The strikeout probability is just too high to pass him up. Paxton has struck out eight or more batters in five of the past six games.
Anthony Rendon ($4,600) / Ryan Zimmerman ($3,600) / Daniel Murphy ($4,600) all crush Matt Harvey. Combined the trio is 20-for-59 with five home runs against Harvey. Add in the fact that the Nationals have taken off since they did not blow their team up at the trade deadline and you have a recipe for success.
