I personally do not think you should be playing MLB DFS right now, but then if you are like me you’ll be sitting there at 6PM tonight and just thinking to yourself, man, what if Maikel Franco hits 2 home runs again tonight and I missed out on that? Alright, maybe you won’t be obsessing over Maikel Franco tonight, but none the less I know you’re looking to play if you are here. So how can we find a way to keep playing when half the league is already mailed it in for the playoffs and the other half can’t wait to get this short season over with and they can go back to not having to wear a mask in the dugouts and go out to eat without fear of getting in trouble for spreading COVID around their clubhouse?

Just remember that if you are out here looking for a team to roll up 10 or more runs right now you are doing it wrong. A five run game is a solid outing for an offense these days.
