A first place finish on FanDuel


It has been a while but I finally scored a first place finish on Fan Duel for a smooth $70 win. Still doesn't beat my one time $600 win, but it is a win.


My line up consisted of players who were not picked by many others.  For example my starting pitcher was Arizona’s Ryne Nelson who was only picked by two percent of those in the contest. He scored a win and 37 fantasy points.


The leader of my line up was Atlanta Brave Ozzie Albies, who was only selected by four percent. Those four percent including myself were happy as he homered, drove in five RBI’s and scored 44.7 fantasy points in a high scoring game between the Braves and Yankees.

Atlanta’s star rookie Drake Baldwin was also chosen by a slim two percent of contestants. He went 1-4 and scored 12.2 fantasy points.

The Yankee’s Giancarlo Stanton went 1-2 with three walks and scored 18.4 points.


The Phillies’ Kyle Schwarber was the second most productive player in my lineup with 41.4 

fantasy points. He was chosen by 11 percent of those competing and managed a homer.


Juan Soto of the Mets was chosen by seven percent and managed to go 0-4 with a walk and a stolen base, adding nine points to my score.


Another player chosen by a slim two percent was Colorado’s Ryan McMahon. McMahon homered and scored 22.2 fantasy points.

My shortstop, Minnesota’s Willi Castro was the most popular player on my lineup as he was selected by 32 percent of the contestants. Castro managed a run and a walk and scored 9.2 fantasy points. 


The Dodgers’ Michael Conforto was selected by one percent of the contestants, in other words probably just me. Conforto managed three points, the least amount of points scored by my lineup.


My lineup scored a total of 197.1 fantasy points, missing the 200 point mark by a base hit. 

The second place finisher scored 189.90 points. 

That player had Jose Altuve and Issac Paredes of the Astros and Randy Arozarena of the Mariners to make the finish interesting as that game went into extra innings. 


However, my collection of little chosen players held on and got the win, proving that sometimes you can win with out an Ohtani and Judge.
