Milwaukee and St Louis are getting in two today with the first game featuring Miz vs Svanson. Game 2 Milwaukee starter is TBD as of the time I am writing this up, but I am going to just default to my usual “go opposite of G1” theory in a twin-bill, especially a divisional one.
WEATHER
All clear on the main slate
Zack Wheeler (DK: $10,000)
He was pulled ‘early’ last start and not too happy about it. Either he gets lit up like an Xmas tree or he goes 7 strong tonight. Given that it’s the Reds, I think we go with the former playing out here.
Jacob deGrom (DK: $9500)
Please, just do not die deGrom, this isn’t that hard of a spot.
Payton Tolle (DK: $8700)
Chicago’s legit at home with their splits as the young guys have been better at home – but Tolle’s been good as well, Should be a push and I think Schultz and him have a good SP duel tonight.
OTHER SP THOUGHTS
- Senga in PLR is just not worth it but I think he will do okay vs Royals
- Patrick Corbin also coming in relief … no, I get it, cheap vs Giants. No. Dont.
PHILLIES
Love Philly vs Abbott in the tiny Great American Ballpark. Sets up well for Bohm who is hitting well of late and Turner, but Edmundo Sosa says hello from a sweeper that goes down but doesn’t sweep enough to clear the bases.
- Trea Turner
- Edmundo Sosa
- Alec Bohm
DODGERS
Would be fantastic if the Rockies got into some fights with the Dodgers and became their pesky little brother. But, we don’t always get great things.
