WEATHER Well I definitely should have known that the Chicago White Sox turning into the Washington Nationals when it comes to weather would be on the bingo card this year.  Thanks for pretending the game would play for five seconds and then just saying, ah, lets agree to a “suspension”. ALL GAMES PLAY TONIGHT   On FanDuel there is no reason not to use either Peralta or Sale.  I think Sale has some risk tonight so I will fade him on DraftKings, but as a one SP site with him definitely having good strikeout upside I can see him being ok on FD, but behind Peralta IMO. Freddy Peralta (DK: $9800, FD: $9200) … I love everything Milwaukee tonight. Jack Leiter (DK: $7100) … Jack is expected to start G2 today.  He faces the White Sox.  I am done explaining this. Luis Severino (DK: $7300) … Very risky trusting Sevvy to pitch well again, but the slate dictates taking some risk.   RED SOX They were my immediate go to spot because Bassitt and lefties is a recipe for good DFS output – however do not buy into this being a 8 or 9 run spot.  Go with 2 max 3 Sox IMO. Abreu, Duran, Devers, Yoshida MARLINS Yeah.  Coors.  Yeah.  Rockies.  Marlins in Coors.  Fun times. Norby, Burger, Hill ORIOLES I expect Walker Buehler to at some point in his career have another good stretch but it won’t be starting tonight without him giving up 2 or 3 HR to Baltimore. O’Hearn, Santander, Holliday BREWERS The Harrison vs RHH splits are enough to back a heavy RH lineup today.  Milwaukee hits better at home too and Harrison has been worse away from AT&T most of the time. Chourio, Hoskins, Sanchez, Adames   CATCHER Francisco Alvarez Gary Sanchez Ryan Jeffers   FIRST BASE I wouldn’t be shocked if all four of these guys had over 1.5 total bases tonight.  Great spots. Ryan O’Hearn Michael Toglia Triston Casas Rhys Hoskins   SECOND BASE Connor Norby Whit Merrifield Jackson Holliday   THIRD BASE Rafael Devers Jake Burger Ryan McMahon   SHORTSTOP Gunnar Henderson Corey Seager Willy Adames   OUTFIELD – Mt. Rushmore Mookie Betts … Love the pay up on Mookie vs Burns.  Could see him sub 5% and Burns has not been right in the 2H. Jarren Duran Christian Pache Jackson Chourio   OUTFIELD – Tier II Derek Hill Manny Margot Wilyer…...
