Happy Masters Sunday to all! MLB is a game of streaks and trends.  By nature of how the sport is played it is the most “trendy” sport from one week to the next.  Remember Torpedo Bats?  Yeah, things come and go very quickly in this sport but when they are present they feel like they are never going to leave.  For DFS and betting purposes we have to ride these trends and these streaks as some of them do hang around for what feels like an entire month or sometimes an entire year.  A player owning a team for a season (Adley vs Jays, take notes) – or certain teams or players doing well on weekends or a specific day.  It happens, the history and the data proves that riding trends and streaks is important in Baseball. One of the ways to ride trends is from series to series.  The Mon-Thu stretch plays one way and then the Fri-Sun plays another.  In the case of DFS the early week process had a ton of stacks with one offs being the build while this weekend has been all about the one off hitters spread around as guys who are “due” get theirs.  Keep that in mind when building your lineups today. WEATHER All clear   It really feels like all my favorite pitchers going today, can we somehow get these guys spread out please? CHRIS SALE (DK: $9000, FD: $9500) This is a big test for if Sale can have another great season this year.  He has historically always dominated the Rays, although many of that comes in the Tropicana COSTCO lanes and now he has to deal with the warm outdoors instead.  That aside, this is the time he has to get it figured out — the CSW% rate was good last start, he just got hit too much — which I don’t trust happening today.  His bigger concern is getting enough run support early from the Braves cold hitters who finally woke up late yesterday.  Well, all but one guy in particular who I’m expecting to do so today.  5-2 Braves win. MACKENZIE GORE (DK: $8100, FD: $9200) Easy button?  Do you want me just to fill this space with random stats about the Marlins or do you want some random weird theory about Sundays in Miami, or do you want a random trivia question for the day?  You…...
