Eight (8) games early today, five of which will start before 4pm and then of the three games at 4PM, one of them may start later. We do NOT have site synchronicity today though, the games which are in that 4PM window are not on FanDuel and neither is the 3PM window game, this means these spots are FD only in their mid-day slate. Braves at Blue Jays Cardinals at Red Sox Mets at Nationals Rangers at Athletics WEATHER Mets at Nationals:  This is the only real delay/PPD risk game out there today, but they have a window where they will get the games in after they wait out any rain.  I expect a possible short delay and then they play. Of note, there is a stadium which I think plays way above the publics expectation today and that is Oakland-Alameda Coliseum.  We have historically profited with day games in Oakland, and it’s upper 70’s with decent humidity in Oakland today. Everything else is seasonable.  Roof probably open in Toronto, and TBD in Miami.   Holy Toledo, Batman!  We have some serious decision making here with regards to some top end pitching going. Nick Lodolo is not going today for the Reds – he is out and thus they are going with a modified opener/bullpen game. Sandy (Alcantara) Because of his early struggles all the Sandy algo’s are broken here which have his price down at $9,000 on DraftKings.  The only thing that prevents him from throwing 9 IP today is that recent usage over his last two starts and maybe around 95 he hits that wall, but 95 could actually get him through 8 IP against Cincinnati. Hayden Wesneski Hayden better than Bryce Miller.  He is $2400 cheaper.  I love him long time today.  Did I just write a Haiku?   Haiku Wesneski!  Getting off topic here.  Just to go on a quick rant, if you want to be a guy who can start for a while in this league you need one of two things.  You need a quality third pitch or you need ridiculous tree trunk sized legs like Spencer Strider and the most dominant heater in the land.  Well, Bryce Miller, everyone’s darling for the Mariners right now has just one pitch but someone like Wesneski is actually going to be here for a while.  Today vs the Twins he gets a lineup which is hitting just .152…...
