Solid 12 game Friday night with a weekend giving us a nice balance of divisional games, hitter friendly parks and nice time zone distribution.   WEATHER All clear   FREDDY PERALTA (DK:  $9,000) A re-match in Flushing as Peralta & Meyer just met in South Beach.  Meyer has been GREAT but there is a little BABIP luck going on and he has to get the whiffs.  Seeing the team a second time in a week lowers that IMO & while you could say — yeah, well, then why am I using Peralta — my answer is simple.  While  Meyer and Peralta both take a dip, Meyer has a much wrose split going away from South Beach this year. SLADE CECCONI (DK: $7200) I’m not really going to blow smoke up here.  Pitching is kinda ass today.  For someone who never gets into the 90’s on his pitch count though Slade does a fairly decent job of producing viable scores.  The hard hit rates are a concern – but he offsets that with a 30% whiff rate on his breaking pitches.  With some early strikeouts tonight, Slade will be good if he gets a quick hook.     GUYS WHO WILL BE POSITIVE … ? Zack Wheeler:  I just don’t see why.  Sure, low owned I guess with the potential to drop 25 FPTS.  Slim margin for error though. MacKenzie Gore:  You’ll see why I am not using him below, in case you haven’t seen the cover boy today either Carlos Rodon:  I just cannot use him, but it kinda feels tempting.  The Athletics are actually top 10 against LHP on the season   BREWERS Congrats to Pei-Wei Teng on two good starts.  It was Texas & the ice cold Cubs.  Welcome in some lefties who fucking can be a thorn in anyones side & Chourio/Contreras are gonna be staring at the Crawford Boxes with hearts in their eyes like Donald Duck staring at Daffney all weekend long.   This is one of those every other year interleague series that you look at and just say “that’s an odd one, I’ll take an order of 12 runs every night please”. Christian Yelich Brice Turang Jackson Chourio Sal Frelick   OTHER SPOTS IM INVESTING IN Giants:  They started hitting better of late.  Prices aren’t reflected where they should be as the visitors in Coors vs Lorenzen.  While Colorado started off better this year…...
