The second contest of MLB DFS Wars went down last night, with Frank Ammirante taking home top honors.
Thanks to David Peterson, Aaron Judge, and Jarred Kelenic!

Great competition in the @realdfswars https://t.co/OmFnQrATMW
I nearly went with Peterson as my SP2, but worked my way down to Tarik Skubal—for no reason other than my recurring weakness in fantasy baseball is paying down (oftentimes too far) for pitching. Anyway, luckily I had a Glasnow/Scherzer pairing that also featured Mr. $2,000 himself, Jarred Kelenic...so all was not lost on the night.
Related, Jarred Kelenic is STILL only $2,000 on DraftKings. He’s a must play in “cash” games, but you’ll need to weigh out his ownership in tournaments and make a call either way.
Here’s the leaderboard through two weeks! We’ll play for 10 weeks total, then drop the lowest score at the end. It’s still early and it’s anyone’s game! Shouts to Seth Klein, who took down Week 1 and came in second place from his hospital room in Week 2. That’s some dedication!
