We have a three game “Early” Turbo slate today and then this MAIN 8 game article followed up with a smaller 5 game night slate. WEATHER There aren’t any games at big risk of PPD today If you are playing DFS by just staring your bald head at a spreadsheet on your computer screen, or solely believe in the power of projections and analytics, then sure, go ahead and use Luis Gil against a cold Orioles lineup or even ride Grayson Rodriguez on the other side in that game.  If you do not live under a rock and have touched grass in the last 24 hours then you know those are two of the most dangerous plays on the board today after how yesterday’s game ended. Unfortunately things turn very sideways on the rest of the slate, but it’s not that there aren’t diamonds in the rough to pluck out.  We have rookie Tyler Phillips getting a start for the Phillies after he pitched 4 solid innings in relief on Sunday.  He’s a south Jersey native and looked kinda nice against Atlanta but you aren’t getting much of a DK discount here and no chance I trust him to go more than 4 again, nor will it be as clean.  Long term though, they might have something here. GAVIN WILLIAMS (DK: $7800, FD: $6700) Last night was a Rays Friday & Under.  Today is a Guardians Saturday & Under.  Tomorrow is probably the over in this series.  That’s just how it works in the universe sometimes (okay, I cheated and looked and saw Ben Lively going tomorrow).  Everyone loved Gavin Williams coming into 2024, and for good reason.  He’s now making his third start of the year after an injury and looked like himself in the last outing against a similarly mediocre/bad/free swinging Tigers team.  If it was his first start, we would run away, but in the third outing he has to trust his secondary stuff more today and that’s where he should be able to roll through the Rays. NATE EOVALDI (DK: $9600, FD: $9800) DFS rules on DraftKings require that we use two pitchers, so I had to go with someone that I can honestly trust.  Outside of Yordan Alvarez I don’t think Eovaldi will be too scared today and maybe, just maybe, they’ll let him pitch over 90 pitches? ZACK LITTELL (DK: $8000, FD: $8600) Going through…...
