I’ve had a busy week and especially since Tuesday/Wednesday — in fact I didn’t sleep Wednesday night and didn’t get to bed until 1am last night.  Everything’s fine, just busy with work stuff.  You’re like, so what, who cares. Well.  I am just saying that this weekend is always one of my favorites of the year for MLB.  I am just now at 1PM looking at the slate, the games and we’re just ahead of what is a TestiFriday where the Cubs play a game at Wrigley at 2:20 vs Houston.  A mini Turbo slate and then a really good 13 game slate.  Sometimes when you go to take your morning shit it just don’t go right, ya know?

JACOB DEGROM (DK: $9500) Wasn’t immediately jumping on deGrom but then logic sets in and its like, yeah, hey, just uh, play deGrom tonight.  Thanks. LOGAN GILBERT (DK: $8700) It always feels like when the Mariners are in Kauffman the games are 10-8 or 4-0.  In both scenarios the Royals are on the end of that score & should be against Gilbert today.  Without…...
