Those on FanDuel will have the Diamondbacks-Rockies game to navigate.  It features a match-up between young arms Tommy Henry and Ryan Feltner. WEATHER All games play. [spacer height=”10px”] Two games today feature top level pitchers for us in DFS with Wheeler vs Bassitt and Bieber vs Gausman being the headline games.  Except one of them is more about the teams than the pitchers and I am treating it as such. CRISTIAN JAVIER All the obvious reasons here.  Oakland’s lineup isn’t good, Javier pitches well at home and he’s priced exactly where he should be.  Enjoy the ~2x from Javier.  He should not pull one of those massive games out of his hat today but he should be fine. SHANE BIEBER This is the game that looks good on paper for pitching and not the Bassitt vs Wheeler one to me.  I would like to take Gausman as the home guy against a lineup that many think is worse, but they’re not.  Toronto offers lots of K upside that Cleveland doesn’t and Beebs should do that vs them today. BRADY SINGER Sunday Sleeper Go ahead Dodgers, bring out all your lefties.  Do it.  I dare you.  Lets roll Singer.  We ride today.  I know what you are thinking, after all these Singer starts now I finally hype him up?  Well, he is great in day games for one, but really great vs LHB which the Dodgers likely drop 6+ out there today.  His strikeout upside can offset a bad inning, plus most of his strikes are called strikes, something the Dodgers are very patient about taking and don’t mind swinging in 2 strike counts.  Advantage Singer, our Sunday Sleeper.

Logan Gilbert should bounce back for about 4 innings then fall apart. Braxton Garrett and South Beach Theory is in play today. [spacer height=”10px”] REDS Solano, Votto, Senzel, India There’s a path for Keegan Thompson getting hit here by a weak Reds lineup.  He’s struggled on the road allowing opponents to SLG .525 off him and has given up a good amount of power to RHH as well.  Small park, good enough weather and a…...
