TURBO SLATE SERIES NOTES
- Padres at Phillies: Machado in Philly will homer much like Machado in DC homered.
- Tigers at Rays: Is it weird that when I first started to type this I almost went Lions at Bucs? I guess it’s another high scoring spot today. Flaherty gets hit and both pens are struggling again. Let me know when the Caminero homer lands.
- Orioles at Red Sox: Shane Baz, if you are ever going to be anything half way decent, now is the time.
- Marlins at Nationals: Logically this one has good DFS value in it after the Tigers/Rays game. Been a while since Caissie/Marsee did anything. Ride them.
WEATHER
All clear again
Roof should be open in Milwaukee & closed in Arizona again.
Davis Martin (DK: $9700)
If you get anything close to what he has done all season and what he just did vs the Twins you’ll take it and be happy. Only concern is facing lineup twice in a row in a week and that sometimes goes opposite – but he’s been so consistent it’s hard to go against him now.
Logan Gilbert (DK: $9000)
He is fixed. Is that only because I stopped touting him up? Maybe. The Mets offense is perfect for Gilbert though. They don’t walk and they’re not a heavy enough power team to do damage in Seattle.
Grayson Rodriguez (DK: $6500)
One of my bigger contrarian takes tonight is that the Rockies (Sugano) and Angels (Gray-Rod) game is a very quiet, sneaky pitchers duel.
I feel EXTREMELY confident in the three pitchers above and also EXTREMELY confident that tonight is not a heavy 10+ run night for multiple teams, but one you should focus a build around 2-2-2-2 setup or 3-2-2-1…
PIRATES
Best game tonight, former Pirate Mike Burrows gets to once again struggle with lefties in a good lefty lineup. If (when) Horwitz gets on base he will DEFINITELY score because Burrows has almost no shot at getting anything past Lowe/Reynolds.
- Spencer Horwitz
- Bryan Reynolds
- Brandon Lowe
- Oneil Cruz
WHITE SOX
Unlike Martin, he is not good and so the twice in one week gets compounded. Key word here being pounded….
- Miguel Vargas
- Chase Meidroth
- Andrew Benintendi
DODGERS
The hit it hard last night, they should be able to finally hit with men on base tonight. This is less about chasing homers and more about someone is clearing the bases with a triple.

- Mookie Betts
