Happy Monday! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AB9zPfXqQQ They just couldn’t give us a full 15 game slate to kick off the new week and the Twins Lefties in Cleveland is the spot we are missing out on tonight…. WEATHER I declare that all games will play on this fine Monday. Storms in Chicago and a few other spots, but ultimately mother nature shall let us be. Jacob deGrom (DK: $10,000) Chicago’s more fragile offensively away from Comiskey. We should see a strong outing from deGrom and push 9+ strikeouts from the veteran. There’s always risk with him and the price honestly is inflated based off name, but I trust him more than anyone else on the field today. Ryan Weathers (DK: $7600) & Braxton Ashcraft (DK: $9200) Ashcraft is having the type of season that I can see him getting lit up after his all-star appearance because it throws off the rythym and he got a ton of praise while there. But the Yankees are bad on offense so I don’t think he gets torched too bad. Weathers is easily the better point per $ play George Kirby (DK: $9400) Seattle at home hasn’t fully applied to Kirby – but let the Reds come in and fix that. While I’m still on them for the second half and being better, they’re fine to pick on here coming out of Coors Field and going into the pitcher friendly Seattle. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS Hell no on Jose Soriano. That ship is done and sailed. Michael Wacha can be good for 3-4 innings, that’s the max, then implosion happens. Not using Cease, I dont fuck with the Rays when they’re in need of a win and also when in Toronto. They love it up there. Sanchez shows up and actually pitches well here, but not well enough. Sorry, but I love a bunch of spots today. However, no, I am not going to the 100 degree Giants/Royals 2014 World Series re-match series. You can go ahead and do that on your own. TIGERS Oh, hi there Jameson Taillon. So nice to see you on this fine Monday. The field might jump here as well given the Wrigley Weather trendies jumping on wind blowing out, and I always like when its an interleague spot as well. Kerry Carpenter Riley Greene Colt Keith ATHLETICS vs DIAMONDBACKS Bad lefties, bad pens. Wish the roof was open…....
