WEATHER
TOR at BAL: Lingering Rain
CHC at PIT: Lingering Rain
All in all, I expect all five games to play.
Only two pitchers I feel very comfortable with tonight:
Justin Steele (DK: $9800, FD: $10,400)
Ken Waldichuck (DK: $5300, FD: $6700)
We can make a good argument for Pablo Lopez, but I just don’t see why you would venture down that path against Texas, who is a ticking time bomb every slate. Merrill Kelly is someone I am attacking tonight, but I would expect him to be a little popular.
Kyle Gibson and Andrew Heaney honestly scare me more than Waldichuk. Heaney between the two has a higher probability to come out and shove though.
REDS
TJ Friedl, Stephenson, De La Cruz, Votto
Could be a little crazy here and pluck some bottom lineup value like Benson or Marte to go with Stephenson and Elly as a one off. Elly in this park should have a field day.
ATHLETICS
Butler, Gelof, Noda, Rooker, Brown
Who else totally see’s Oakland jacking 5 HR’s tonight on the South Side in 90+ degree temps? I sure as hell do.
CUBS
Happ, Tauchman, Bellinger
