New: DraftKings has pulled sports, political and certain other prediction market offerings for customers physically located in Utah. Contracts on stocks, commodities and cryptocurrency remain available.

It comes after Utah and the CFTC filed competing lawsuits this week over prediction markets.

@ArmentaniBros @GarrettStubbs @Phillies Lit as usual 🔥🔥🔥

The AP told @LSPReport exactly what it takes to win Comeback Player of the Year. Aaron Donald doesn't fit the criteria, yet he has the NFL's third-best odds to win it.

A few months ago, Garrett Stubbs approached a DJ trio from NE Philly - the Armentani Brothers - about making a new post-win mix for the team.

Since then, they've been curating the sound of the Phillies' clubhouse.

The origin story of the new post-win mix
