WEATHER
- Brewers at Cardinals: Bad storms could roll through here, this is slight PPD risk
- Mets at Rockies: Snow. Yes. Snow. Maybe the Mets are sniffing coke again.
- Chase Field: Roof Open
Logan Webb (DK: $8700)
San Diego had their chance last night to get on the Giants early and just couldn’t do it. This should be a typical Logan Webb 6+ innings, couple runs, a few strikeouts and just enough to get you a good return on his $8700 price. He’s coming off just a 92 pitch 7 inning outing, his form is good & should get through the Padres lineup 3 times.
Freddy Peralta (DK: $8300)
Peralta has good history in Coors, but the weather risk is obviously a real and big thing here. If he looks clear, lock him in, don’t sweat it too much – though, there are other okay options as well.
Shohei Ohtani (DK: $10,700)
I was going to pass on Ohtani due to price, but as we go through the hitting I find plenty of good value options to mix in and there’s no auto pay up spot. His ownership should be really high, so if you wanted the pivot it’s going to be deGrom vs the Yankees, but I see Ohtani’s arm being just fine even though his bat is ice cold.
ALSO THINK WILL DO OK
- Bryce Elder & George Kirby: Cant use a SP vs Atlanta right now though & Elder 8500 vs Peralta/Webb is a no brainer other guys.
- Walker Buehler: Sneaky Walker Buehler trying to be good again every other start? Not a bad spot for him.
REDS
I hope (and think) that DFS players are going to see no wind in Wrigley Field & some will see Jameson Taillon and think — oh, he is pitching well — and move right on from this game. I didn’t push it heavy last night and that’s on me, but KeBryan Hayes loves Wrigley Field & so too does Spencer Steer & Tyler Stephenson. The value guys here for the Reds get this lineup turned over & I think we see the Taillon bad start rear its ugly head. Cincy’s seen him a ton, they’re going to go off.
- Tyler Stephenson
- Elly De La Cruz
- JJ Bleday
- Tyler Stephenson
PIRATES
Pittsburgh likes to shift up their lineup vs a lefty, but I hope they keep Oneil Cruz at the top — let the kid continue to develop. However the kid we have to be playing is Konnor Griffin, he’s hot and should hit E-Rod. The ‘Zona pen remains void of LHP options as well if you do go heavy stack here…
- Konnor Griffin
- Marcell Ozuna
- Bryan Reynolds
CATCHER
- Tyler Stephenson
- Will Smith
- Sean Murphy
FIRST BASE
- Sal Stewart
- Vinnie Pasquantino

SECOND BASE
- Travis Bazzana: Royals cannot hit pitchers they dont know and they cant get out hitters they dont know. advanced scouting sucks. always has. he’s going to have a gazillion hits this series…
- Ketel Marte: Zona getting a dead fastball arm = Marte has a big game
THIRD BASE
- Maikel Garcia
