Good news, we have both FanDuel and DraftKings included two 6:40 PM games on the MAIN slate tonight to bring the total up to seven games. Bad news, we have both FanDuel and DraftKings including the Royals and Marlins on the MAIN slate tonight. WEATHER No issues TOP ARM(s) Aaron Nola (DK: $10.2k) Outside of Nola deciding he wants to pitch with his left hand or his head in the cloud tonight, there’s a low probability that he winds up struggling against the Tigers. They’re back to whiffing a good amount vs RHP, they don’t hit stuff which breaks very well and Nick Maton doesn’t exactly get me excited in the “revenge” narrative department. SP2 CANDIDATES Secondary choices tonight begin with Braxton Garrett (vs KC), Blake Snell (vs CHC) and the battle of JP Sears versus Johan Oviedo. None of which are solid plays here. Blake Snell is the one you roster when you want to feel like you have a shot because he is the last pitcher going, pitches well at home and the Cubs are ready to get the heck out of San Diego after a wrap-around road trip (they go to Anaheim tomorrow). But Chicago has some power vs a LHP, so he’s not free and clear of damage for $9700. Garrett to me is the risky chalk fade. I suspect he is popular vs Kansas City, but lots of profile concerns against their lineup and someone who has had to rely on strikeouts to hit value due to low PC’s is not going to run away with the slate. JP Sears is someone I really like tonight. Pittsburgh isn’t hitting for much power, especially at home, and Sears has not struggled with command. He’s cheaper than Garrett, will strikeout fewer, but is for sure your contrarian pivot. And then we have Jim Abbott’s son, yes, that Jim Abbott, the one handed lefty who threw a no hitter once. Seriously, ya’ll claim that Shohei Ohtani is some awesome pitcher, has he every thrown a no-hitter? I didn’t think so, this guy did it with one hand. Anyways… His son’s name is Andrew or Andy, not to be confused with the kid from Toy Story, who probably is old enough to pitch now too but he spent all his time playing with little boy dolls and was too scared to beat the crap out of…...
