The Dongers Club – August 22nd

WEATHER

Should be all clear, maybe a storm in Atlanta.

 

BRYAN WOO (DK: $10,500, FD: $10,600)

Great form and back at home in the pitcher friendly Seattle environment.

CASEY MIZE (DK: $8300, FD: $9500)

Very interesting series starting up in Detroit tonight as the Tigers are white hot again and the Royals are playing good enough to win.  The price on Mize is what tempts me here, because he should be able to get through 6 innings, but the Royals have seen him enough to be able to limit his strikeouts.

BLAKE SNELL (DK: $9300, FD: $10,200)

Yes, this is the ‘hype’ it up series & they both know each other very well of course.  A little contrarian late night spot here on a slate with limited “safe” pitching options IMO.

OTHER PITCHING THOUGHTS

  • Ohter guys I can buy into tonight include Zebby Matthews, Ryan Bergert and Ryan Gusto …

 

  1. RAYS … Good park for the Cardinals lefties on the road too – but Miles Mikolas!  That’s the story folks.
  2. BREWERS … #AlwaysMilwaukee?
  3. CUBS … The west coast should wake up Kyle Tucker — even if he is hurt.
