[spacer height=”10px”] WEATHER No issues, roof likely closed in Houston though due to slight rain chances. [spacer height=”10px”] NOBODY There is no pitcher tonight who is my #1, gotta have guy today. Here’s why … Shane McClanahan – 11,000 for a pitcher who is over his innings limit and has started to slow down while also being the chalky go to guy tonight is not where I want to begin. I stand by what I wrote last night about the trend we are going into despite Verlander uh, well, going 6 innings and not allowing anything Framber Valdez – Should navigate a bad Twins lineup tonight just fine, but does not have the K% upside that JV did have in his back pocket and is also over 10k for a guy who will get 17-18 DK fpts.

Berrios definitely has his problems at times but usually likes warmer weather and should be comfortable with that tonight in Boston. Although I think this game in general is a lower scoring dud for the DFS plays. [spacer height=”10px”] DODGERS Freeman, Muncy, Turner, Bellinger Might look like I am riding off their 10 run out burst last night but with Adrian Houser coming off the IL and warm temps out in LA I would start here for some offense from both sides tonight.
