With two games being rained out yesterday I was worried we would have a jumbled DFS slate today between FanDuel and DraftKings. Much to our satisfaction we have site synchronicity with 6 game early slates, including the Pirates-Tigers first game of their doubleheader today from Detroit. Except, we don’t have site synchonricity. Yes, you will see Seattle vs Houston listed on FanDuel and 6 games listed. In fact, they sent an API feed out to some with pricing for players in that game but it’s not listed on the Early Slate contests, so you really cant pick them. Unless of course they randomly decide to add them just an hour or two before lock. What a bunch of idiots.

The Cardinals and Royals are playing for the final meeting this year and I really think they will manage to work to get this game in as they moved it up to 1:10 PM EST already so I expect they get it done and over with quickly. Unfortunately Kris Bubic is pitching so that might not go so fast. The other light rain spot is the Braves and Mets and obviously those teams will meet again later in the year in New York and are coming off a double-header yesterday. I don’t think the rain will be strong enough to push this one out but I also dont think anyone will give two craps about playing in it. All in all, I expect that all 6 games play. PROBABLE PITCHERS Here are the expected starters in the double header games on the early slate. These sometimes change last minute with the double header games so I wanted you to know who I anticipate is pitching in those games as I did my article. Game 1 Starters (On this slate): Clevinger (SD) vs Plesac (CLE) Peters (PIT) vs Pineda (DET) Game 2 Starters (Not on this slate): Gore (SD) vs Quantrill (CLE) Quintana (PIT) vs Faedo (DET) Sorry…. You won’t be able to add Alex Faedo to the list of pitchers who you stacked against and got 4 zero’s, at least not today….

He dominated them earlier this…...
