The Dongers Culb – Sat 9/15

PITCHING

1. Andrew Heaney … 10.4k on DK is a bit steep for Heaney, but with weak pitching options today I will bite the bullet on him on both sites.  He’s my SP1 on DK and FD today in all formats.
2. Charlie Morton … Your best safe bet to pay up for tonight, but Arizona has their backs against the wall and I could see him getting out of this game without the win tonight.  Good strikeout upside and the roof is closed which helps pitchers in Houston.
3. German Marquez … JAG…. Just a guy tonight.
4. Yerfy Ramierz … SP2 and Longshot call with Heaney

 

FADES

1. Vincent Velasquez … No excuses here if he pitches poorly.  Lets put up or shut up tonight VV.   I am tired of hearing about this guys upside — he is destined for the bullpen one day and he just isn’t turning into a big league starting pitcher.  His price tonight is tempting though against the Marlins and I suspect he is heavy chalk.  I am fading.

 

STACKS

1. ORIOLES … Camden Humidity.  I would rather pick on ReyLo on the road than Yefry who has been decent at times this year.  Loads of Villar and Beckham here.
2. ROYALS … What can I say about my boys?  They’re absolutely having fun and on fire right now.  Chase The Dong is in town tonight and the Irish Coffee will take him out for a drink tonight.  That’s Ryan O’Hearn.
3. PHILS … I wil lhave a couple Phils tonight.  Mainly 1-3 because I think they gotta get to Jarlin early or else they are dead.

SNEAKY

1. PADRES … It’s another opener game but the Rangers will roll out a bunch of bad arms.  The Padres are my sneaky late night hammer.

CONTRARIAN

1. ARIZONA … If you wanna go against Morton for leverage look at Arizona who like I mentioned really has to win again tonight and has the talent in that lineup to put up some offense with ease…..  Pollock would be a lock for me.
