Meet Erik, 35 years old. After meeting a fantasy baseball expert on the internet, he took his last three dollars, entered it in the Early Moonshot on Monday, April 11, 2016, and won $5,000. His conscience never came into play.
All of the above is true, except the part about Erik's last three dollars, of course. See, Erik has now done what the vast majority of DFS players have not--he's taken down a large GPP. This sucker had 28,750 entries. Impressive to say the least. Instead of going all-in with David Price, he pivoted to Michael Wacha. Combine that with nine Aaron Nola strikeouts, a rare offensive outburst from Yadi Molina, home runs from Chris Davis, Mookie Betts, and J.D. Martinez, respectively, and a 19-point punt play in Aledmys Diaz, Erik nailed every single player on Monday's early slate. Good on you, Erik. You are truly a DFS inspiration and I'm proud to call you one of my good friends. Rags to riches, homie, you ain't done. You got 99 Problems, but winnin' a GPP ain't one. Enjoy that Four Roses Bourbon. Just remember you're picking up the bar tab when you come to Pittsburgh in June. It's the least you can do! (Also, bring me a bottle of that bourbon. On the house, of course.)
