MLB Best Bets for Monday (9/20)
While everyone was distracted by Week 2 of the NFL, Boston and Baltimore helped us turn things around in our MLB  Best Bets Sunday by exploding for eight runs in the first five innings to cash our over. If you recall from Sunday’s writeup, I had put out there “I’m expecting runs to be scored […]

n this article, I’ll use the Strikeout Model to sift through the pitching options on DraftKings. We’ll discuss the threshold probabilities and how they combine with projected ownership to allow us to consistently make +EV decisions at the starting pitcher position.
