WEATHER Two spots to monitor tonight for delays or even PPD risk. I would think both wait things out and get their games in though. Rockies at Mets Yankees at Orioles JOE RYAN (DK: $9800, FD: $9800) Ryan is only $400 off Sonny Gray as the high end pitcher tonight but he’s got the Giants in San Francisco – that is a little easier to stomach than a pitcher in the Cubs/Cardinals rivalry in hot St. Louis. COLE RAGANS (DK: $8500, FD: $10,200) While Boston has been hitting well of late and hits well at home, they are still prone to whiff a good amount and are still a LH heavy lineup that needs another RH bat to balance things out more. The park isn’t always favorable to lefties pitchers, but the strength of Ragans against Devers, Durran, Yoshida, Abreu if they’re all in should benefit him to deliver for Kansas City tonight. GARRETT CROCHET (DK: $10,300, FD: $11,000) I really put a little too much emphasis on when a team has or has not seen a specific hand split of late and in the case of the Pirates they have only had 13 PA in the last week against LHP. Combining that with the nasty ability of Crochet is probably not to their advantage tonight so we could be looking at a real easy 30 point game from him. OTHER PITCHING THOUGHTS Best Under 8K Crowd includes: Tyler Anderson, Yonny Chirinos, and the guy below I kinda want to say Marco Gonzales is gonna be a nice cheap SP2 today, but how much we get out of him coming off IL assuming he is the Pirates starter. TOP TEAMS ROYALS: Bobby Witt, Salvador Perez, Maikel Garcia There is no specific reason why the Royals got so cold on the road in May and June because they should hit well when going into smaller parks like Fenway where they can just hit line drive after line drive off the monster for hits. The signs are pointing to them turning it around on the road as they go to wrap up a long road trip this weekend and I’m gonna be a homer expecting some big offensive games. MARLINS: Jazz Chisholm Jr, Jesus Sanchez, Josh Bell, Jake Burger, BDLC Big time break for the Marlins avoiding Hunter Greene here, they’ll feast on Carson Spiers and with some good high…...
