Here’s that five game MAIN slate that I wrote about in the early article and you know what, I have definitely found two pitchers who are gonna smash tonight.
WEATHER
Roof in Texas – Likely Closed
Roof in Milwaukee – Likely Closed
Roof in Seattle – Likely Open
Game in San Diego – It’s San Diego.
Game in Anaheim – It’s Anaheim.
Please make sure you tip your DFS weatherman for that dynamite analysis, thank you.
About those pitchers.
YU DARVISH
Simply put the Kershaw-Darvish game is the obvious pay up pitcher spot and Darvish dominates the strikeout matchup here. He’s the one to pay for and either game stack the SP’s or pivot down for a cheaper 2nd pitcher tonight.
DANE DUNNING
The cheaper SP’s today are between Dunning – who hasn’t shown that he can remove training wheels to give us 6 IP yet. Kremer in the same game who for my money lives up in the zone too much to trust. Greinke who we are gonna touch on below and a whole bag of just oh my god no I don’t want that. So it’s Dunning in a good pitchers park and a relatively calm lineup to attack
TREVOR CAHILL
No Yelich again today. Cahill should get 5 strikeouts and limit the damage on him tonight.
ANGELS
Ohtani, Trout, Walsh
Matt Shoemaker has been living dangerously lucky so far in 2021. He’s getting his gum handed to him in a not so pleasant way this evening. Stack this game up as we have the two legends of Saturday night Mike Trout and Nelson Cruz front and center in more than ideal match-ups for the stars
MARINERS
Haniger, France, Seager
I am of the belief that Zach Greinke is entirely done and he is essentially what Bartolo Colon was late in his career. He’ll use enough junk to avoid getting entirely hammered, but he’s not going to give you a nice long game and he won’t consistently miss enough bats to warrant using at all. Instead, I want to attack him even with a mediocre offense like Seattle.
PIRATES
Kevin Newman, Bryan Reynolds, Colin Moran
We are just getting it out of our system at this point because I promise you after this weekend the Pirates stacking is going to end. But not yet…. Not yet.
