Wake up boys and girls we have an 8 game DraftKings Sunday slate today with a 9 game (including Coors Field) slate on FanDuel. The Sunday Brunch game today is between the Angels and Blue Jays north of the border, while the Sunday night game is Yankees/Orioles. Imagine that, ESPN has the Yankees on Sunday Night Baseball again, but rest assured we will be told that they are including more markets by having the Orioles host it. Man up ESPN and why don’t you go to Kansas City to see the hottest hitter in the world, Bobby Witt Jr. WEATHER Could see mid game brief showers between Phillies/Pirates…. Otherwise we should be all clear TOP TWO OPTIONS JESUS LUZARDO — $11,000 (Both Sites) Pretty straight forward, Jesus on a Sunday at home vs the Tigers. He’s had a little extra time off since a 115 pitch outing against the Rockies, and had he not had the extra day we would fade, but 25 DK points is the floor today folks. JUSTIN VERLANDER — DK: $9400 Not feeling the usual Sunday Citi Field overs narrative today. Yeah, Max is gone, the Mets are dead, the Nats are pesky, but JV should showcase that he should be the next to get sent out of town. Only fear is they pull him early to avoid any injury reducing his trade value… SUNDAY SLEEPER MICHAEL KOPECH — DK: $7400 | FD: $8400 No, there isn’t an easy data story to tell here with Kopech. He walks too many guys, the Guardians are very well disciplined at the plate and should hit him. But the rule of thumb with the Sunday Sleeper is to go opposite of what should happen. Both these teams should have competed for the AL Central crown and now they’re just trying to get to the end of the season as quickly as they can. Kopech will go -10 or replicate what he did two starts ago vs the Mets since he has been able to have K success vs lefties — which he will see a ton of today Alternative Sleeper: Aaron Civale OTHER PITCHING NOTES Highly Rated SP Fades: Kenta Maeda, Cristopher Sanchez, Tarik Skubal I am out on Tarik Skubal, he jumped up to $8700 on DK and $9300 on FD based off a 5 inning, 2 hit, 9 strikeout start vs the Giants last week, but should still be held…...
