Betting trends are likely very similar at both sites. In those big payoff contests, you need to pick guys that most others don't have, and get a big game out of them. If only 1% of people were starting player A and 30% were starting player B (both of whom might have the same chance of results) you want to start player B and hope he has a big game. This obviously differentiates you from the pack.
Knowing which players were being picked would be a big advantage.
