You may recognize Derek Carty from his role on Baseball Tonight, his articles at ESPN.com, or his occasional SportsCenter appearances. He's also been published by FOX Sports, Sports Illustrated, NBC's Rotoworld, FanDuel, and Fantasy Insiders, among many others. He's a long-time DFS player and the creator of THE BAT and THE BLITZ, perhaps the most sophisticated DFS projection systems on the market. Prior to DFS, Derek honed his statistical chops as the Fantasy Manager of two of the biggest sabermetric outlets, Baseball Prospectus and The Hardball Times (now the nerdier branch of FanGraphs (yes, that's a thing!), and holds an elite track record in year-long expert leagues (six titles while finishing top-3 over 50% of the time). He'sÂs also the only active fantasy writer to have graduated from MLB's exclusive Scout School, which he blends with his statistical background to form a complete picture of a player.
Brit Devine is a former low/midstakes online poker pro/coach who quickly transitioned to DFS in 2011 after Black Friday. He was the Operations Manager at DFS site Fan Throwdown before parting ways, where he then turned to playing DFS full-time. Mainly a cash game player, Brit provides expert analysis frequently via written columns and GrindersLive appearances.
Charlie Wright is a writer and handicapper specializing in stat-driven betting picks. He has a strong knowledge of advanced metrics and leans on data to support his plays. Charlie is one of our top MLB cappers and also dabbles in NFL and NBA picks.
A failed high school pitcher, Nick discovered that he has a higher aptitude for analyzing and writing about sports than he does playing them. To his friends, he is better known as "The Commish." When he's not organizing a fantasy league, placing a bet, or writing an article, he's probably nose-deep in a book--further illustrating the point that his niche in this world is as a nerd rather than an athlete.
The ScoresAndOdds Prop Model, introduced in early 2022, uses a time-tested stat projection model to simulate the outcome of each game over and over again. Statistics are logged during each simulated trial, and the results are then compared to the odds presented by the sportsbook to determine the best bets.
