Nine game MAIN slate for this fine Sunday with Five (5) afternoon games and then the showdown featuring the Cubs and Red Sox, which to me feels like the easiest under bet in the universe after two touchdown scoring type games. WEATHER It’s about to get hot everywhere. All games play without weather issues. If you took a picture of all the starting pitchers that I just do not get very excited about, this would be the collection. We’ll call this Spencer Rattler day if you know what I mean. Are they horrible? No. Do you want to use any of them? Absolutely not. Your expected chalk today will be Tarik Skubal ($10,000 on DK, $10,900 on FanDuel), as he draws the Royals who are NOT striking out at all right now but again talent drawfs trends in this scenario. Put Skubal down for a nice even 6 strikeouts over 6 innings. Solid, not awesome. The other likely popular picks are going to come from ZACK LITTELL (DK: $8700, FD: $8900) and ERICK FEDDE (DK: $7500, FD: $8300) … These two knuckleheads will face off against their respective lineups of knuckleheads. It is worth noting that Fedde’s best starts have come with Martin Maldonado catching him and I expect Martin to sit today, but if he is in then sure, roll Fedde. I have nothing to justify excitement for using either guy here but both will be just alright. My Sunday Sleeper MICHAEL WACHA (DK: $8700, FD: $8800) … Congrats to the Tigers for luring in the most fans they will have all season due to the NFL Draft folks realizing that they should do something more productive with their Saturday and go watch a fun Baseball game. Today they’ll get shut down by Mr. Day game Michael Wacha as he brings his mighty fine reverse splits into Comerica Park to induce a bunch of fly ball outs that just die in the large outfield there. I just hope the Mark Canha first AB fly ball to right center field stays in the park. Overall Pitching Rankings Sometimes in DFS we just look at it and realize that there is no point in over thinking or over stressing the situation. It’s a boring slate, so such is life. These are my recommended arms to use today. Michael Wacha (DK: $8700) Zack Littell (DK: $8700, FD: $8900) Marcus Stroman (DK: $9600, FD: $9500)…...
