WEATHER Wind blowing out to RF in Wrigley over 10 MPH and temps above 70 degrees. Not extreme, but favorable. Roof Closed in Arizona Roof Closed in Houston Roof Closed in Texas All games play. MacKenzie Gore (DK: $7800) Gore at home and a LH heavy lineup. The Twins are 24th in AVG/SLG vs LHP on the season and not really a big breaking ball hitting team. Should be a Gore 8+ strikeout game. Ryne Nelson (DK: $6500) Roof closed season in Arizona now. Angels offer lots of strikeout upside still. They’ve got the second highest projected K% tonight & not enough lefties to really offset that with power surge. A Trout double is fine, the rest of the team will be quiet. MY SLEEPER PICK After those two there’s really not much else. I can see Walbert Urena and Shota Imanaga being popular plays, and obviously Chase Burns is the ace going today that everyone will use. I have no desire for that group. Shota’s gonna be okay but is seeing Colorado in back to back starts. Jared Jones (DK: $7000) Jones should still be a little restricted on his PC and yes it is scary to use pitchers in Sacramento, but the weather isn’t insane and don’t confuse this with the Vegas series. Jones has been pitching fine since coming back, he should be good here. TIGERS A very underrated park shift and one that Spencer Torkelson loves. Kai-Wei Teng also really struggles with lefties, walking them almost 14%, so throw in that the RHH should be able to power to LF and the lefties are on base and we have a fantastic 8 or 9 spot opportunity. Spencer Torkelson Riley Greene Kerry Carpenter CUBS Chicago kinda woke up out in San Francisco, which being in San Francisco can definitely help with the ‘woke’ if you know what I mean. Okay, bad jokes, but hey, I tried. Back at home they’ll be a chalky spot versus Mikey Lorenzen & we should just be chasing a couple guys for solo homers. Ian Happ Moises Ballesteros METS On the opposite end of the chalk spectrum is the Mets. Oh, they’re on the spectrum all right, or at least being a Mets fan probably is. However, the Mets into Cincinati historically no matter who is on their team tends to boost their stats. It’s…...
