Updates – 11:28 AM EST Trevor Story is in for Boston today, Xander is out.  Swap Story in over Xander. I was too passive when talking about Aaron Nola, definitely have him in the top tier and expect him to be sub 10% on FanDuel where I am using him instead of Webb because of good value with the hitting. Go Pie-Rats, Ian Happ just as much a strong play as Suzuki from the Cubbies. KC/STL PPD Good luck!

FanDuel actually has the bigger slate with 9 games but I cannot explain what they decided to do for the night slate later on tonight.  The two extra games on FanDuel are … Houston at Arizona San Diego at San Francisco These are both viable spots for pitching today and for FD arms consideration I would rank the four there ahead of just about everyone else on this slate. WEATHER Unfortunately our expectations for a fantastic early MLB DFS slate today are going to be hampered by weather. CLE/CIN – There’s some weird storm going into Ohio.  It’s not ideal for playing Baseball KC/St. Louis – This has storms too and lots of humidity with it, but it could play if they just wait it out as I don’t think Zack Greinke has anything else planned for today.  No desire for the game either way.

NATHAN EOVALDI Big Nate checks in as number one on our list today as I projected him to go up to 85+ pitches today after throwing 76 in his first start vs the Yankees.  The Tigers have four bats which project to have 25+ strikeout potential in Baddoo, Baez, Miggy and Victor Reyes, so that combined with Eovaldi overall consistency of 25+ K% and a big park on day with the winds blowing in has him #1.  I would project 6 , 1 ER and 7 K from Eovaldi. MAX SCHERZER There are two Max(es) to consider between Scherzer and Fried and one is facing…...
