WEATHER
Tampa @ Boston only PPD risk in my mind.
PITCHING
Dominant slate for pitching tonight as we have a TON of affordable mid range guys which makes these high priced studs a little less tempting. That said, there’s also some strong bats that are cheap on FD tonight so that brings these guys back into play there. I’m looking more in the mid-range on DK
- Corey Kluber … FD only where he is only 11.2. No thanks on DK, I can beat that value with other arms tonight and against a Mariners team who hits well in Progressive is a spot I can deal with fading Klubot tonight on DK. FanDuel has all-stars listed at 2k, so he’s in play there.
- Jake deGrom … Fine, he doesn’t need the hair to ball out anymore. I think it might be time to go pick on these Padres again even though Hosmer might be back int he lineup tonight.
- Zack Godley .. He belongs in this tier, he is that good despite a rough game last time out. He’ll do better tonight against the Nationals who are ice cold and coming back from a west coast trip. Suck it Carty.
MID TIER
- Marcus Stroman …Now everybody… Have you heard…. If youre setting a lineup. Then Stro’s the word……………..His price on both sites is just criminal, but we don’t need to go that cheap — that’s not the reason. The reason is simply getting to face a Rangers team who seems to lose a key piece every other day and has a lineup that does pack some pop but is complete trash so far this year.
- Tyler Anderson … I don’t trust the Marlins to keep up what they did against Kershaw tonight and I doubt ANYONE will go to this obvious spot on a large slate after what the Marlins did to Kershaw. There will be plenty of run support here for Anderson and he makes a fantastic SP2.
LONGSHOT OF THE NIGHT
- Mike Fiers ………Wound up, can’t stack, can’t do anything but win lotsa money, Oh, since I played the longshot…. I tell you the truth… Ca-ca-a-Cashin with the arms all week, baby…. You’re driving me crazy…. Come on, little pitcher, come on now…….
FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIERS, SMOKIN THESE ORIOLES
FIERS, STRIKES IN THE CAMDEN….. FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIERS, STRIKES ARE A RISIN……..
FIEEEERS, OH SMOKE STACK OF CASH LIGHTING!!!!!!!!!!!
POSITIONAL FAVORITES
CATCHERS
- Victor Martinez
- Yadier Molina
- Salvy Perez
This feels like it’s a night for the old veterans. OK, so Salvy isnt THAT old yet, but he’s in the veteran status club. Not a deep position today.
FIRST BASE
- Miguel Cabrera
- Freddie Freeman
- Joey Votto
- Lucas Duda
First base is really deep and I didn’t even cover the options from the Cards/Pirates game which is one I really like tonight as well. Look at Duda for some value and Votto/Freeman for spending up on. Miggy loves Camden. He’s my #1 today here.
SECOND BASE
- Whit Merrifield
- DJ LeMahieu
- Jason Kipnis
THIRD BASE
- Eugenio Suarez
- Nolan Arenado
- Moose Tacos
Geno is back and only 2k on FD. What a joke.
SHORTSTOP
- Carlos Correa
- Paul DeJong
- Jose Peraza
OUTFIELD – Tier 1
- Nick Castellanos
- Sir Thomas Pham
- Starling Marte
- Yoenis Cespedes
OUTFIELD – Tier 2
- Aaron Judge
- Jesse Winker
- Charlie Blackmon
OUTFIELD – Tier 3
- Steve Pearce
- Nick Williams
- Adam Duvall
STACKS
CARDINALS … Annual Cards and Pirates series where I stack it for no reason other than these teams play high scoring series. Added bonus is the Cardinals have a ton of sneaky power that can actually translate into PNC park and the Pirates are rolling out Steven Brault. Never trust a Steven. They’re fucktards who you cant trust like Scott Stevens. Stephen’s are better.
TIGERS … Miggy want homer. Miggy due for multi-HR series. Oh, guess who else is due for a law of avg’s homer? Victor Martinez. Yeah. Him. Lock and load. Miggy-VMart-Castellanos. I refuse to not play against the Orioles at home all year.
REDS … They’re awake and Eugenio Suarez is back and criminally under priced on FanDuel. Hey guys, maybe we shouldn’t fucking have a potential all-star player listed at 2k MIN PRICE. WHAT THE *)@#($*)@(#$ ARE YOU GUYS DOING OVER THERE? SERIOUSLY. Congrats on releasing the nascar product, that’s awesome, we now have something to donkey away our Sunday afternoons with while we kick back some 6 packs and stuff our hands down our pants but can we not do this stupid pointless stuff with the guys who go on the DL? Who the hell is writing your algo’s over there? Derek Carty’s private pet robot who comb’s his fucking hair every 3 hours so that he can stare in the mirror and tell himself that people actually like him when in fact all the RT’s he gets are from fake accounts that he had a robot generate to make it look like people actually thank him for helping him in DFS by stacking against his pitcher? What the fuck are you doing? WHY IS EUGENIO SUAREZ 2K? WHY? WHY IS XANDER BOGAERTS 2K??? WHY??? WHY ARE THE CAROLINA PANTHERS DRAFTING MORE WIDE RECEIVERS WHEN THEY HAVE NO QUARTERBACK WHO CAN THROW THE BALL? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE??!?!?!??! ……………… oh yeah, I like Votto-Friday Night Lights-Geno and Duvall…. RH power bats in Target.
SNEAKY STACKS
Because who doesn’t like a tout that lists 150 stacks?? It’s all the rage….
ROCKIES … I only play Jose Urena when there’s a Big Swing $1500 entry tournament. Otherwise, we stack against him. Logic folks. OK, no seriously. Nobody will be on the Rockies going into Miami but I love playing them on the road despite people looking at their overall #’s and thinking they cant hit on the road. Newsflash, Blackmon is crushing away from Coors and Nolan will hit about 50 doubles tonight in a 87-3 rout by the Rockies (**** DISCLAIMER: THESE NUMBERS ARE SLIGHTLY EXAGGERATED ******). Nolan & Blackmon stud contrarian stack here with a little …. wait for it …. wait for it …. DAVID DAHL … Yes, the most overrated Rockie ever will have a good game tonight off Urinary Tract Infection…..
ROYALS … This game honestly should be higher on my list. Hopefully you’re actually reading this and will bump it up. 70+ degree temps here and a hot Moose Taco’s along with Salvy back in the lineup. Whit got a day off and I love guys after they had a day off. Wait, did I just day I love Duda(s)? No. That’s not what I meant at all. But, if you are into that, then you’ll definitely wanna play Lucas Duda. Because he would definitely be your type.
