Welcome to a great Sunday of MLB Baseball action where the big question today is will the White Sox team bus make it to the field on time? In a wild twist of events, FanDuel has 11 games on it today, including the Mariners and Rockies, while DraftKings went with the nice even ten (10) game slate. WEATHER All clear, not warm anywhere though. If ever there was a collection of Sunday School names for pitchers it would be today. You’ve got yourselves a Sonny vs Colin, Casey, Kyle, Ros, Cole and Seth. Tanner, Nick, Aaron and Josh. Mitchell “Dont call me Peter” Parker, and of course, Luis, Louie, and up until about 10:45 we had a Cristian. But he’s now scratched, so cross him off… AARON NOLA (DK: $10,800, FD: $10,300) So the other day FanDuel had a pitcher over 11k and he wasn’t facing the White Sox. Nola, a good pitcher, is facing the White Sox at home. Uh. He should be 20k. Hell, I would consider myself a 10k pitcher against the White Sox. The only reason I am rolling Nola second here is because I wanted to just put the Cristian first out of respect for Sunday. The White Sox are just horrific and don’t seem to give a shit about it either. LOUIE VARLAND (DK: $6400, FD: $6600) Varland has enough talent to put it all together but thus far in 2024, like most of the Twins, he has not lived up to that area. That’s starting to change for them and the BABIP should turn in his favor here today. A tough road facing the Dodgers and Orioles now eases up with Spencer Torkelson, Javy Baez and the Tigers coming in. 6 innings, 8 strikeouts on the docket for Louie V folks. HUNTER BROWN (DK: $6800, FD: $6300) Brown is being bumped up since Cristian Javier would not pitch on the Lord’s Day. Brown is settling back into form and I love the ole switch out here for him. He should be a chalky play now that he gets the Nationals, who really have about 7 easy outs in this lineup right now. Other Pitching Thoughts … It’s a decent slate for mid-tier guys. Aaron Civale, Kyle Hendricks, Casey Mize are all likely to pitch well but not clean. Specifically Mize vs Buxton, Civale vs Soto and Hendricks vs De La Cruz…...
