TURBO SLATE THOUGHTS There is a good four game TURBO slate today after the 2 game Double-Header/PPD make up slate in the early afternoon. On the Turbo Slate you have Cubs/Orioles with mid game storms possible and insanely high humidity and heat. This is a terrible spot for both Imanaga and Burnes — I really believe Ian Happ or Cody Bellinger could hit 2 out tonight for the Cubs. Guardians at Tigers could be delayed but should play, with Tanner Bibee being your SP1 on the short Turbo slate. Mariners at Padres is a mid afternoon PETCO game, expect the ball to carry a little better here and the Seattle lefties to have a good game. I expect over 7.5 to be a bet I take. Yankees at Rays .. who cares. Seriously, this is a low scoring game. MAIN SLATE NOTES G2 Royals at Cardinals is only on DraftKings Neither site has included the Twins/White Sox second game because it’s not a day/night DH. WEATHER Dodgers at Phillies – This game is at 7:05, which tells me that it must be on ESPN or MLB Network as a Showcase game, but thank you for including it on the main slate. Big wind out to left field here and it’s obviously hotter than tits on a monkey. There’s also wind OUT in many other spots, and when I say wind out, I mean over 10 mph. Here’s those spots — Fenway Park, Great American Ballpark & Citi Field. We have some BAAAD pitching out there tonight my friends. Combined with the still tired bullpens and everyone having played last night (good for hitters), we could see some 13 and 14 spots put up on the scoreboards tonight. The one counter argument is MLB hitters getting their brains into vacation mode before the all-star break but I wouldn’t expect that until Friday. LOGAN WEBB (DK: $9800, FD: $10,100) This is a good game to consider both pitchers in. While Bassitt vs a lineup that likely has 5-6 lefties in it looks like he could get blown up, I counter you with him being a good pitcher in big parks. The safer route though is gonna be Webb. He started the year with some inconsistency but has really found his groove and there’s nobody I have more confidence in going 6+ innings with 100 pitches, 5-6 strikeouts and limited damage. On…...
