Tout Daily: Link fences in competition

Week 1 of Tout Daily is in the books with Rotowire’s Clay Link lapping the field, posting an impressive 197.3 points, nearly 22 more than second place finisher Michael Beller from Sports Illustrated and almost 21 ahead of Brian Walton from CreativeSports2.

This is our fourth year playing Tout Daily. Rotogrinder’s Derek Carty is the defending champion. CDM’s Charlie Wiegert won the inaugural contest in 2015 with BaseballHQ’s Patrick Davitt earning the title in 2016.

Tout Daily consists of five four-week periods, with the top-three in each period earning a Golden Ticket into the three-day Survivor Tournament, crowning a new champion. The overall points leader heading into the Survivor Tournament also is awarded a Golden Ticket.

Links’ lineup (posted below) was spearheaded by pitching, featuring Stephen Strasburg and Hyun-Jin Ryu. Link was the only Tout to click on Ryu and his oustanding 32.3 performance. Several of Link’s hitters enjoyed big games, led by Trevor Story’s homer and steal, scoring a run while knocking in a pair.

Starting next Tuesday, the Touts will be sharing a pitcher and hitter to consider for your DFS lineups. Look for that late afternoon. Follow us on Twitter at @ToutWars for alerts when all our great content is posted, including Sunday’s Tout Wars FAAB report and Monday’s ToutTable.

  1. Same here Gene. My mid-pack squad doubled and cashed in a GPP– really hoping some of these folks also entered in other contests!
