Lineups & Entries Preview
The lineups panel after a build: Pool vs Entries Preview, selection methods, ranking, exposure, and editing the pool.
Articles
The lineups panel
Where your built lineups live: the LINEUPS rail, the build tab, the Entries Preview and Pool tabs, Selection, Rank by, card and table views, and the footer.
Lineup cards and table
Read a lineup card (rank, projection, salary, ownership sum, stack badge, players), expand it, use the table view, and act on a single lineup.
Selection methods
Every option in the Selection dropdown, what each one optimizes, when to use it, and how the count of your entries matches the pool.
Rank by options
Every Rank by metric before and after a simulation, what each one orders, and how Rank by works with the Selection method.
Player exposure after a build
The Player Exposure grid: Exposure, Pool, Lev, Min Exp, Max Exp, the filter, hide, and trash icons, Select mode, the position tabs, and the other views.
Edit the pool
Narrow the pool with FilterIQ, trash lineups by player or by filter, restore from the Trash accordion, and choose between Rebuild and a new build.
Lineup actions menu
Every item in the lineups panel menu: Save as playbook, Replay, entries upload and download, the three lineup downloads, Select mode with Copy and Move, the preferences, and Clear Sim Results.
Saved builds and tabs
Run several builds on one slate, read the build tabs, drag them into your own order, rename, pin, and note a build, see which build fills your entries, and delete builds one at a time or in bulk.
Export lineups without entries
Download the lineups in Entries Preview as a CSV for manual entry on DraftKings or FanDuel, and read the file shape for each site.
Combined builds
Put lineups from several builds into one tab. Import whole builds, or check the lineups you want and copy or move them. Duplicates are skipped, the tab holds up to your plan's limit, and each card names the build it came from.
Set a lineup as an entry
Put a named lineup in a named contest. Pick one lineup for a single-entry contest, pick a few seats of a 20-max and let Fill finish it, or set picks in bulk from Select mode. Every pick action has Undo.
