Building MLB DFS lineups this Monday? See what SportsLine's DFS Guru Jacob Gibbs has to say first. Gibbs is a data-driven Daily Fantasy Sports specialist who's never had a losing season.

Previously an analyst at numberFire, Jacob got his start in DFS seven years ago, turning a $25 deposit into nearly $3,000 his first season. Gibbs crushed MLB season last year, cashing around 52 percent of the time in cash games and nearly 42 percent of the time in tournaments. He also develops proprietary rankings and projections, which help him find the best DFS values and create profitable lineups.
