I am proud to share my first victory in this young Steemit Fanduel Fantasy Baseball League !!!

This win earned me $5 SBD thanks to @nathanjones and @fantasy.sports, the creators who fund this league. This was truly a brilliant idea to bring together Steemit members who truly appreciate the friendly competition of DFS sports, (specifically baseball in this case) to compete for some SBD.

Here is the proof of earnings and how I pulled off my first W !

It is pretty amazing to imagine that I pulled off this victory even though I had two players score me zero points. One of which was John Jaso, who was not even in the starting lineup this day, and the other... J.D. Martinez in his first game with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Although J.D. did not produce in this game, he will be a huge chip for the D-Backs heading into the playoff hunt, supplying power to an already dangerous Arizona lineup. Gerrit Cole was probably the main reason why I won, putting up 52 points. He got the no decision against the Milwaukee Brewers in a game in which the Pirates won 3-2. Cole's stat line reads; 7.0 IP, 1 ER, 6 H, 0 BB, 10 K. Although he did not get the points for the win, he also did not get negative points for the loss, notching a quality start in a good team win. Second most notable towards my victory was the offense provided by Jonathan Schoop for the Baltimore Orioles, going 3 for 4 with 1 R and 3 RBI, netting him 25.7 points for team @ndre1224 . Lastly, the win could not have been completed without the role players! Thanks to Mookie Betts, Manny Machado, Jose Reyes, Andrew McCutchen, and Yadier Molina.

I hope to see this league grow as it is already a lot of fun and were only in the 12th match-up. The more competition the better!

Thanks!
