All games play tonight, no weather issues.   SPENCER STRIDER Baltimore is a slight downgrade for strikeout upside for Strider.  Whoop te do, he goes from 50-60% down to 35-40%. KEN WALDOSUCK Hi!  Let’s go contrarian for SP2 tonight, shall we?  And no, I am not here to tout Brady Singer, but rather I am going with the SP that the Royals have never seen before, which is a tradition in them putting up goose eggs.  Waldosuck as I call him had a VERY rough schedule to start, but there are signs he can dominate tonight with just 2 walks over his last two starts and Baltimore is a slight downgrade for strikeout upside for Strider.  Whoop te do, he goes from 50-60% down to 35-40%.

PHILLIES Bryce Harper, Trea Turner, Brandon Marsh I know Boston is the hot lineup right now and they face Bailey Falter – but Corey Kluber almost certainly gives up a 1st inning homer to Harper and isn’t leaving tonight before he allows 5-6 ER. MARINERS / ASTROS Suarez/France || Yordan/Pena/Maldanado This is the face of the dude the Astros have promoted to pitch against the Mariners.
