The Dongers Club – June 1st

Below are the final standings for the May Contest.  It’s clear now that half of you just do not read the rules or do not care about rules… Cmon people!!!

Ya’ll just think that I sit here and yada, yada, yada all the way through every day and you can ignore the rule which CLEARLY stated – no more than one player per team?  Sheesh.

WEATHER

Storms in the north east which is cooling off the conditions on Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park tonight.  Both games have risk of PPD but expectation is that they’ll play to get the games in before rain/storms come through and drastically cools off the balls.

The Brewers are starting someone named Jason Alexander today.  I guess Art Vandelay was not available to start.

GARRETT WHITLOCK

动态图GIF: seinfeld, nut, george costanza, jason alexander, lets get nuts, wanna get nuts

This really isn’t that wild of a recommendation tonight.  The Reds offense isn’t exactly stellar and Whitlock unlike Wacha last night has a much better chance of missing their bats with his 28.7% whiff rate and 31.3% CSW% rate all together.  Look for Whitlock to mow down the Reds today.

ROBBIE RAY

Strike outs my friends.  Strike outs.  That’s all we are hunting here even though it is warm and those tight pants might get a little soupy for Robbie Ray he should still see a 7+ strikeout performance today.

JON GRAY

Well here we are again.  Going down the path of looking at Jon Gray and with the Rays best hitter (Wander Franco) banged up and their offense just not turning the corner I think we’ll go down this rabbit hole of Jon Gray at home tonight for a very modest $6,400 on DK.

BACK … TO THE CAMDEN

Mariners Again

Winker, Frazier, Julio Rodriguez

Go back into the garbage pale that is the left field wall at Camden Yards and pray the Mariners to hit it the right way tonight onto Eutaw Street.

SWEET HOME … TORONTO

Sox and Jays Stacks

The return of Luis Robert at the top of the lineup for the White Sox is one thing, but facing Hyu-Jin Ryu a LHP that has not been great this year is another.  Chicago is one of the bottom offenses statistically and has plenty of holes still without Moncada, Eloy and Tim Anderson.  But another high scoring game is likely tonight and these offenses are worthy of stacking.
