WEATHER
All clear
Cristopher Sanchez (DK: $10,700)
Cease vs Sanchez tonight & while the eventual Red Sox disappointment game came last night and might lead to a cold slump I am not ready to pick on them just yet. So, we go to Sanchez in St. Louis where his ability to keep the ball on the ground offsets really high temps and good homer weather there tonight.
Hunter Brown (DK: $9300)
Brown is back in more ways than one and is a big reason why the Astros are suddenly a real AL threat again. Oh, wait, that’s right, their offense is a one man show. He needs no real write-up here though as he’s been dominating AL teams who are much better than San Francisco of late.
Patrick Sandoval (DK: $6900)
Sandoval’s K% numbers were really good his last two starts. He’s pitching with aggression and emptying the tank since making his season debut. Good price here at low ownership as well.
ROCKIES at DIAMONDBACKS
Roof closed but all in on Chase Field tonight. Don’t trust either SP or bullpen right now.
- Carroll / Perdomo / Marte / Moreno
- Carrigg / McCarthy
MARINERS at YANKEES
Love some offense here today. The weather helps with good August temps & wind out to RF. Woo on the road is where most will focus, but I see Weathers due for an early HR and he is not going to try and sneak a change-up by Taylor Ward first AB. Ward leads the slate off with a homer and then Heliot Ramos says hey, I am new here too and I can do that as well. This is the new kids on the block stack. Not that anyone should ever reference the new kids on the block, but, well, I just did…
- Seattle: Taylor Ward, Cole Young
- New York: Heliot Ramos, Luis Garcia Jr, Ben Rice
RAYS
Good luck going to bed with this game looming out there tonight.
- Junior Caminero
- Liam Hicks
- Victor Mesa Jr.
CATCHER
- Gabriel Moreno
- Liam Hicks
- Francisco Alvarez
FIRST BASE
Deep and loaded today.
- Joc Pederson
- Ben Rice
- Pete Alonso
- Freddie Freeman
SECOND BASE
- Kody Clemens
- Ketel Marte
- Cole Young
- Luis Arraez
THIRD BASE
- Eugenio Suarez: Geno is one of the more interesting players tonight. He has been down and seemingly done all season long but a late power surge in Washington might be worth buying into tonight. Cincy’s gonna give Burke the floor he needs for strikeouts – but I like this as a sneaky HR/over spot
- Junior Caminero
