Try to follow along with today’s schedule updates if you can as we have two MLB DFS slates on this fine Thursday with a double header included. The White Sox and Yankees are playing two today after yesterday’s PPD, although it’s still up in the air if they actually play either game today. The first one is at 4PM and is not on any DFS slate, while the second one has been included on DraftKings Main 7pm slate tonight. Detroit and Philly decided ah fuck it, lets not play two, do we really wanna play anyways? So they have one game and it’s tonight on the FanDuel main slate, but that game is NOT on the DraftKings main slate because FD locks at 6pm (the DET-PHI game) and DK locks at 7pm tonight. None of this matters for THIS article though, because this is the Early slate article and all I just did was make it so that I have to repeat myself tonight on the main slate article, sorry for wasting your time. WEATHER Arizona at Washington – We have smoke here, it smells like ass in the air and so we’ll see if they pull some crap and PPD this one, I doubt it. Coors Field should see (yes, Coors is on this slate, sorry) rain at some point in the game, not enough to PPD it though. Again, sorry…. Wait until you hear who is pitching. TOP ARM(s) CLAYTON KERSHAW (DK: $10.4k) The Reds are your cheap bats on the slate, so thats kinda a counter argument but they’re also unlikely to tear up Kershaw like they have the other Dodger pitchers. Elly is going to be just fine from the right side of the plate too but the rest of the team is what I would pick on as Clayton probably has a 7+ strikeout game himself. SP2 CANDIDATES ALEX COBB (DK: $7500) The only other arm I truly like today when factoring in price and opponents. OTHER PITCHING NOTES Yonny Chirinos (TB) — It was announced this morning that Chirinos will start for Tampa today — his first appearance since May 16th vs the Mets. He hasn’t faced more than 23 batters in a game, but the Twins are also ICE cold right now. He’s a viable SP2 instead of Cobb given his price, but that would be if you are…...
