No site synchronicity today. FanDuel has two early slates in typical FanDuel fashion and they included the Astros/Pirates game on their ‘Very Early’ slate but do not have the Marlins/Phillies and Nationals/Angels games on that slate, while DraftKings does. All in all there are a lot of mid week afternoon games for early in April. Eight of the 15 series in fact are playing on the afternoon slate today, which kinda makes it the ‘Main’ slate if you consider the biggest slate Main. WEATHER Very similar to last night, in which we saw good offense continue and there’s some additional good spots today as well. SD at NYM – Windy out to RF, and remember they did bring in the fences in RF this year slightly. NYY at CLE – 16 mph wind out to RF CHW at MIN – 14 mph out to left SEA at CHC – 21 mph out to CF … Day game. 73 degrees. Fun. STL at COL – 79 degrees, 11 mph out to center. MIA at PHI – 80 degrees, 16 mph out to right. ROOF CLOSED in ARIZONA That’s a ton of positive impact for hitting, and I didn’t need to go get a Meteorology degree and you didn’t need to pay $15.99 for that extra advice. Normally I would say lets take the roof closed game in Arizona and game stack those arms. But unfortunately we have Dr(e)y Jameson making his debut for the Diamondbacks, which really is just a bad name. Who wants to be known as Dry Jameson? Does that mean he is a recovering alcoholic or he is just some Gen Z version of getting drunk? And on the other side in that same game is Janson Junk. So a Junk pitcher vs a Dry Drunk? What an absolute mess… In short, we want no part of young pitchers there, lets take our chances with someone in a good hitting weather game. Zack Wheeler DK: $9,700 (Game not on FD) When first examining the list of pitchers Wheeler was the one I had the first gut instinct on. Obviously the weather is not ideal for mid April pitching options but then again on the entire slate it’s bad no matter where you go. So why Wheeler? I think we gotta value anyone who can get 8+ strikeouts on this slate and Wheeler can do that. Soler, COoper,…...
