Down to just two Sunday’s remaining for MLB DFS content as the prize pools go away once NFL officially returns on Sunday’s and next weekend is of course over a Holiday weekend. Meanwhile, over at FanDuel, they have already given up on Sunday’s with today’s MAIN slate featuring everything through the 4PM games. This is an 11 game Main Slate on DraftKings. For the FanDuel crowd, the Mariners/Royals game is going to be 2-1 and the Reds probably are worth consideration but there’s plenty of other hitting options so I would just ignore the 4PM window games all together. WEATHER All clear I’m just going to go completely off the gut here today, and there are four pitchers total who I would go with. Justin Verlander Yusei Kikuchi Mike Clevinger Carlos Rodon Yes, you are reading that correctly. Obviously Verlander going back into Detroit is going to be the #1 spot for us today. Even with the Astros being smart and keeping him under 100 pitches each outing he has shown that he can produce enough swings and misses & now see’s a Detroit team that should produce another high K% spot. Kikuchi is always a gamble, if his command is off then its nighty night against a patient Cleveland lineup, however, the Oscar Gonzalez, Ramon Laureano and bottom part of the order AB’s should result in him getting strikeouts up in the zone with his fastball. Nobody will trust him at that price against Cleveland, nobody except me. Clevinger and Rodon fall into the real ‘sleeper’ category, although Clevinger vs Oakland likely draws some relative ownership. Rodon wont, but Rodon is your real K% upside sleeper today. I don’t trust Tampa at all. I would spread out hitting exposure today with the heavier slate of games and I doubt we see a ton of explosive offensive outbursts today. The Orioles and Blue Jays are top end CORE teams to load up with. Toronto seeing Thor should be able to get on base, run and also touch him in up in their hitter friendly park. The Orioles against Ty Blach are also in one of the better humid/heat games today & always hit well at home on Sunday’s. Orioles (Hays/Mountcastle/Rutschman) Blue Jays (Merrifield/Bichette) Going with the GUT feel today, the Astros will hit 2 HR off Faedo and one of them is Yordan Alvarez. He is the…...
