Steven Wright gets no respect...(or was that Rodney Dangerfield)

May or May not be a picture of Boston Red Sox Right-hander
Steven Wright.

Draft Kings is at it again tonight, screwing with the lineups, randomly and without warning.  On every two pitcher site I played on tonight I wanted Steven Wright to be my SP2, but DK removed him on a whim.  Last time out he was better than both my pitchers that night: Madison Bumgarner & Matt Harvey.

I emailed them and they said they didn't get the information that he was starting in time.  I emailed them back that that can't be true, because they have his opponent Juan Nicolino in against him, and he was named the starter tonight, only after Jose Fernandez was assigned to the disabled list on Sunday.  And yet you can play Nicolino tonight if you want.  Plus, Steven Wright was in the database for his last start, someone over there had to make a conscious decision to remove him

That answer might assuage the casual observer, but us DFS baseball geeks,know this kind of thing.  Don't they understand their customers?.

So I sent them a second email explaining the errors of the first email's answer as nicely as I could.  I'll probably amend this note sometime later after I get their reply.

Then I see this banner warning on DK's website, concerning a player who was traded to the Dodgers 10 days ago, and started for them last night at Second Base.  They are breaking week old news tonight.

The reason I get so angry with Draft Kings is because outside of this weird lineup quirkiness, they have the best baseball product out there: Great format, outstanding website, myriad choices of contests, everything you want from a DFS site.  But this one thing stands out like a sore thumb, they screw with the lineups so often and so randomly, it's as if they want to give you the one-day fantasy baseball experience of having a renegade commissioner drunk on his or her own power.  Someone should tell them that's not something we like about Fantasy Baseball.
