So here is the good news for me. We have Saturday Sycnrhonicity between the two sites. Bad news, they let FanDuel take the wheel and we have two early slates today.
I will not be touching the “Early” three game slate, but we’ll look at this Afternoon 5 gamer and then the 6 game night slate. Might be a nice quiet weekend overall.
WEATHER
Looks clear for all five games to play.
SANDY ALCANTARA (DK: $9100, FD: $9100)
First start after birth of child. Well rested and no CJ Abrams. Clearly the best option on this slate in my mind even with the not heavy strikeout vs RHP Nationals on the card.
After Sandy nobody is free and clear of either not being a giant waste of space or having a tough draw. So really it’s a matter of checking for who can get us enough strikeouts
TREVOR WILLIAMS (DK: $6800, FD: $7100)
Lee Corso put it best once ….
Next Best Option
- Building a lineup for the 7PM slate instead….
ONE OFFS
Love this Mt. Rushmore of one offs today
- Santander – TOR
- Story – BOS
- Robert – CWS
- Riley – ATL
BRAVES & RAYS
This park is going to play GREAT in day games. Unfortunately you have decent pitchers going today, however AJ Smith-Shawver is the weaker of the two and should allow some yard contact to the Rays bats.
BOSTON RED SOX
Boston is ice cold — buy low here if people are silly and getting shy that Martin Perez is pitching a third straight gem. He isn’t.
CATCHER
Adley is the top play here, but after him the next best play is just not paying for anyone, as the rest are just likely get you a 2.
- Adley Rutschman
- Liam Hicks
FIRST BASE
- Pete Alonso
- Vlad Guerrero Jr.
- Yandy Diaz
SECOND BASE
- Otto Lopez
- Andres Gimenez
- Kristian Campbell
THIRD BASE
- Austin Riley … The heat is on with Riley
- Miguel Vargas
- Alex Bregman
SHORTSTOP
- Trevor Story
OUTFIELD – Mt. Rushmore
- Anthony San-tan-der she goes….
- Michael Harris II
- Brent Rooker
- Luis Robert Jr.
- Anthony Santander – OF – Toronto Blue Jays – Chairman of The Dongers Club
- Trevor Story – SS – Red Sox
- Austin Riley – 3B – Braves
- Luis Robert Jr – OF – White Sox
- Brent Rooker – OF – Athletics
2PM WINDOW GAME THOUGHTS
- Jordan Hicks shoves vs NYY but the Judge Homer is happening
- Mikolas is better, but Phils win 6-1.
- Jobe and Paddack in a pitchers duel in MIN for about 5 seconds before this game blows up in the 3rd inning. Twins win
TOP BETS
- Twins ML + Phillies ML Parlay (Early)
- Nationals/Marlins UNDER 7.5
- Red Sox/White Sox OVER 7.5
