We do have Thursday afternoon Baseball, which believe it or not is better today on FanDuel as they saw the Yankee game and said oh boy we gotta have that one on our Early slate guys, lets not fuck this up because clearly only New York matters for DFS purposes.
Of course, this is hilarious because there is also a big issue with Sports Betting in New York right now where the state is collecting on tax revenue big time based on the gambling laws that went into place and its going to ass rape the books for the first year they are live, so of course FanDuel should be collecting more people to play DFS and Bet on their book in New York so that they can fund more parades for stupid shit in NY that nobody cares about.
But I digress…
We have Shohei Ohtani in Yankee Stadium on a short slate. Should end well.

WEATHER
All four games play just fine unless there’s some weird bomb threat or someone takes a dump on the field and let’s hope that neither happens.

ALEK MANOAH
As I write this I am listening to some music today and the lyrics “Please allow me to introduce myself, I’m a man of wealth and taste…”.
A great song with great lyrics and I certainly don’t think that Alek Manoah is the Devil or anything but in many ways when he is on the mound he turns into a demon against batters and is going to tame the piss out of the White Sox bats after they saw softy Ryu last night.
TAYLOR HEARN
For those on DK today you’ll need to find a second pitcher and honestly most of the other guys are more appropriate for the Lucifer reference (Cueto, Archer, Faedo!), so take Hearn in a game where he should have a closed roof to remove any weather elements and the Rays who are not great vs LHP is a good spot.

TWINNING
Buxton – Arraez – Polanco – Kepler – Larnach
Alex Faedo is not great with hitting his spots and probably won’t last long in this league before he transitions into his future career as hitman for angry spouses who want to off their husband (or wife?).
Honestly. Look at this before picture
And then look at his now picture
If you see that guy at a bar seat near you, then shit’s about to go down.
As for MLB DFS analysis, Twins gonna go bonkers today.
STAYIN HOT
Springer, Bichette, Chapman
The Blue Jays are quietly the hottest team in Baseball from a winning stand point and now the offense is starting to get on the same page. The Bichette vs Cueto match-up today is must watch TV because it will be Cueto doing his delayed delivery mechanics while Bo is up in the box looking like a 6 year old kid who has to pee really bad but has to wait to see his favorite power ranger and he just can’t stop moving and BANG there goes a SOLO HR.
