SLATE INTRO Good Morning. Normally I would have some thoughts regarding the prior days slate when there are items which I want to point out or comment on and I certainly have a point to make in reference to nuggets I had laid out there on Friday and yesterday that would have shifted the eyes onto San Diego. But overall it was just one of those days and I’ll just reference the phrase we are onto Cincinnati to move onto more important things. Like Sunday Baseball … And then I logged into FanDuel dot com. Their level of incompetence never ceases to amaze me. FanDuel’s slate locks at 12:35. DraftKing’s locks at 1:05 FanDuel’s slate has 13 games on it. Yes. 13. This is their Main slate. The All Day slate has 14 games on it as it includes the SNB game between the Phils and Braves. DraftKings has 7 games on it.

Carlos Carrasco Really hard not to like Carrasco against the Tigers today — even at home where he’s never been as good as he is on the road. Corbin Burnes The Brewers will win today after dropping the first two to the Pie-Rats! With Burnes we get someone who can be extremely nasty to opposing righty bats but given that the Pirates aren’t heavy on RHB he will need to be better than his 33% K rate against them to have an elite day. This is mostly due to my belief that the Brewers win the game and he pitches a relatively clean 6 innings. Tyler Mahle Mahle needs three things. He needs a big ballpark (check). He needs a team that doesn’t have LH power (check). He needs an umpire who can be favorable to him (Check). If you are venturing into the insanity house of FanDuel he isn’t your play there, but on the 7 game slate at DK I would roll with him. Having not pitched since August 12th, he’s probably good for 5 IP tops. FanDuel Only Mike Minor Chicago Cubs & Chicago White Sox Ian Happ, Anthony Rizzo, Yoan Moncada, Luis Robert Warm and…...
