We only have 8 games on the MAIN slate tonight because the MLB continues to schedule a ton of 6pm window games and they’re not included on the MAIN DFS slate, which is a big bummer because we miss out on Marlins vs Phillies and … Astros vs Pirates! WEATHER Wind out to RF (13 mph) in Atlanta Wind out to CF (10 mph) in Wrigleyville Mid 70’s with a 58% dewpoint in Coors Roof should be open in Chase Field So there’s two ways to approach this slate overall and it all centers around the pitching you are comfortable with. I don’t think you’ll wind up witih a comfortable build where you have a balanced lineup tonight, meaning that you either should have two mid/cheaper pitchers and higher $ bats or the flip side. So I present two options today. THE CHEAPER ‘Underpriced’ ARMS LOGAN WEBB This is a criminal price, I don’t care if it’s the Dodgers. Did you see how the mighty Giants offense went from hot in warm windy Chicago to ass in San Francisco? Same thing should happen with the hot Dodgers bats going from Chase Field to San Francisco. A game stack with Urias is just fine as well, but I like the leverage side of having Webb on DraftKings at $7400 BRYCE EDLER Edler got up to 79 pitches in his debut and went 6 innings as he allowed just 2 hits with 3 walks vs a good St. Louis Lineup. The Reds aren’t one to miss many bats and given that they have never seen Edler before the advantage is on his side here too. A season ago his Slider generated a 36% whiff rate & five of the top 6 for Cincinnati had 27%+ K rate in that same split. I see another 6 innings with 6+ strikeouts from Edler. Just missed the cut: Zac Gallen. He’ll put it together soon, but I am not tempting the heater that is on in Arizona right now THE BETTER ‘Pay Up’ ARMS MAX SCHERZER I believe that when you are a hall of fame pitcher you can figure things out and that’s what is on the plate now for Scherzer as he and other veteran pitchers continue to adapt to the pitch clock. Max was always a guy who worked fast, but clearly last start things were too fast for him…...
