Daily fantasy baseball can sometimes feel like a crapshoot. But there are always spots where dedicated fantasy players find advantages. Here are five pitchers I feel will more than likely outscore their projection.

1. Dallas Keuchel ($9,900) at Mariners

Fifteen MLB games scattered throughout Saturday create separate slates for daily players to tackle on DraftKings.

One of Bud Selig’s primary goals in adding a second wild-card playoff spot to both leagues was to put more teams in postseason contention, creating more excitement and fan interest throughout the summer.

A consequence of achieving that goal has been tamping down the trade buzz heading into the All-Star break, one of the game’s most exciting and heavily debated portions of the regular season.

This Major League Baseball season goes to 11.

Sorry, had to do it. There was just no other way to mark the passing of the 11th week of the 2015 season. Regardless, it's time for us to do our thing: Find the week's top stories and round them up for immediate discussion.

Any day you join a club that counts Randy Johnson and Pedro Martinez as its only other members is a good day.

On Friday, Chris Sale had a good day, even if his Chicago White Sox decidedly did not.

NEW YORK — Four years ago, it was easy to know what to think.

It was easy to know how to feel.

Derek Jeter got to 3,000 hits in the most Derek Jeter of ways, and it wasn't just Yankees fans who celebrated. Even now, four years later, the pitcher who gave up Jeter's 3,000th hit can talk about how "special" that day was.

It's possible that Chris Sale isn't human. 

The Chicago White Sox pitcher once again absolutely dominated, pitching eight innings and giving up just two hits and no walks, while striking out 14 against the Texas Rangers. Tragically, he was awarded a no-decision after David Robertson blew the save opportunity in the top of the ninth and the Rangers won the game, 2-1. 

New York Yankees designated hitter Alex Rodriguez recorded the 3,000th hit of his career on a solo home run off of Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander in the first inning of Friday's 7-2 win, joining Derek Jeter as the only players to reach the 3,000-hit mark in a Yankees uniform, per ESPN Stats & Info.

While hitting a home run always benefits a team, New York Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez is probably wishing that his 3,000th hit would've stayed in the field of play—because it doesn't look like he is going to be getting the ball.

As the St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Phillies attempted to play a baseball game at Citizens Bank Park on Friday night, a squirrel on the loose made it hard for some—especially the Phillies—to focus on the action on the field.
