For today’s early slate we have both FD and DK ignoring the Royals/Diamondbacks game and DraftKings has the Rangers/Reds game as a Showdown only contest at 12:35. This type of stuff like last night is very annoying when we have start times of games about 30 minutes apart and they are on different slates just for money grabs. Are we gonna convert NFL to be 4PM as the Main slate and 1PM as the Turbo slate going forward? Last night was a perfect example of why larger MLB slates are better because once again all those Turbo games were filled with good options and this moron decided to stack up the White Sox. On to Wednesday, five game early slate (DK) and six game (FD) now and then another short main slate article tonight. WEATHER All early games are fine and chilly with two dome games (Milwaukee, Toronto) We have two Germans, two Asians a Tanner and a Tyler, which is about as nice of a way as I can say this group of pitchers sucks. FREDDY PERALTA Chalky Freddy Peralta, winds up with him giving up 3 HR or striking out 12. It’s the Tigers, who have won two in a row vs the Brewers in Milwaukee, so I am going to lean that the striking out 12 is bound to happen here. DOMINGO GERMAN Another cold game in Minnesota and German was great vs the Twins on April 15th getting 41% CSW in that start at Yankee Stadium. Let’s not expect him to repeat that exactly today but out of the 9.5 pitching options we have, he’s servicable. TANNER HOUCK Houck is the one arm who I could see matching Peralta’s upside. Would use him as a direct pivot off Peralta with some Tigers bats to further your leverage. FanDuel Only: Jon Gray vs Graham Ashcraft. Back Gray as an SP1. Pitching notes on other guys … Cleveland has called up Tanner Bibee, a 6’2 RHP prospect as we’re likely to see Cleveland shift in the new era of pitching to jumpstart their slow season. It’s a rookie SP but he is pitching in the cold, I don’t think he’ll be terrible outside of early inning walks and a Ryan McMahon homer. He is $8,100 on FD and not in the DK playerpool. Kenta Maeda is back on the mound, let’s see what injury he…...
