The stretch drive of fantasy baseball drafts is here, and it's time to place bets on the top-tier talent. In a week, I'm heading to Las Vegas to play in the National Fantasy Baseball Championship, and I'm using this information to make my high-stakes draft decisions.

ADPs give a perspective of public opinion, which helps gauge when to fight or finesse players. To become a better decision-maker in fantasy sports, one must understand draft flow, along with these other draft components.

I've contributed as a writer/analyst for Sports Draft Daily, ScoutPro, Scout Fantasy, Fulltime Fantasy, FFToolbox, and Sports Illustrated Fantasy. I'm honored to be in the National Fantasy Baseball Championship Hall of Fame. My drafting philosophy is risk-averse yet open to betting on potential game-changers. I approach player selection with a neutral perspective, acknowledging that fantasy sports are inherently unpredictable due to injuries, performance dips, and managerial decisions. My work focuses on these main areas: - Season-long fantasy baseball and football - BestBall Baseball and Football Events - Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS): DraftKings, FanDuel, and Underdog - Long Shot Player Prop Parlays for NFL I participate in various leagues and contests, including NFBC, NFFC, RTSports, FFPC, DraftKings, Underdog Fantasy, FanDuel, and FFWC, with the goal of leveraging my extensive experience and research for success in each game format.
