Injury reports are serious wrinkles. Often time players will be scratched within a few hours before the game. If you are optimizing, you need to account for this because it sends the backups value much higher than his salary. For example, last night Rajon Rondo was scratched. His backup Darren Collison, was in over 80% of the lineups in a FanDuel 50/50 tournament. I didn't have him, and I lost $2.
