I guess I did not pick up on the new schedule format that MLB secretly did this year where by we have very short Thursday slates.
Considering I have said in the past that I hate Thursday MLB DFS, this probably is a good thing for me.
Yet, here I am, going through the 4 game early slate window on this Thursday afternoon. I guess it will serve as a nice distraction from the PGA Championship where guys will be doing their best to screw up everyone’s lineups.
WEATHER
All four games play fine.
This is awesome. We have two Tyler’s facing each other and then a Tylor facing a Taj, as well as a Trevor a Logan and a Dylan. It’s suburban White Boy Thursday for sure.
You should ride or die today with your decision to trust Dylan Cease and I am on the bandwagon that feels Cease just relies on trying to set guys up deep in the count for a whiff and divisional opponents (like Cleveland) are catching on to this and not biting as much. Throw on top of that Cleveland not being the highest of K% team still and I’ll take the risk fading him.
This leaves us with some bleak options though
- Eury Perez … There is definitely some talent here, worth taking vs the Nationals and my favorite option of this bunch.
- Taj Bradley … Great K% upside, something the guys below (Williams/Wells) do not have.
- Trevor Williams … Opponent is the worst of the bunch
- Tyler Wells … Should not kill us, but should also not be someone you
Favorite SP Pairing: E.Perez / T.Bradley
FAVORITE STACK
- ORIOLES … Baltimore is a top 10 offense in general vs LHP, they really tee up on non breaking pitches from lefties as well. Mountcastle/Adley/Santander and if Hays is in the lineup (he should be) we go there too
