The Dongers Club – May 13th

Now this is what I call a nice Monday slate.  There are 12 games on the Main DFS slate tonight, and that doesn’t include two early Turbo slate games as 28 teams are in action all total today. In case you are itching to get an early start tonight, those two 6PM EST early window games are Blue Jays at Orioles and Marlins at Tigers.  I mention this, because it’s trending that we will miss Ryan Mountcastle week, specifically Ryan Mountcastle vs Yusei Kikuchi on Wednesday this week.  I for one, cannot fucking wait. WEATHER Nats at White Sox:  PPD risk.  Rain. Cubs at Braves:  Similar, but less PPD risk   ZACH EFLIN (DK: $8200, FD: $8900) … There is just one hitter which is a slight concern and that is Tyler O’Neill, who if you are into doing a SGP with some props on this game probably gets a 2 out double at some point tonight.  The 5-9 portion of the Boston lineup should not be able to have much luck against Eflin and is likely going to be in a bunch of 0-1, 1-2 type counts tonight, allowing him to control the game. BRADY SINGER(DK: $8800, FD: $9300) & GEORGE KIRBY (DK: $9000, FD: $9400) … This is a very tough call between Kirby and Singer.  The upside for Singer is that the Royals will let him go up to 100+ pitches, while Kirby still seems to have some training wheels on him when he gets into trouble.  So you certainly have greater reward with Kirby here but I trust Singer to continue with a very good form that he has right now.  The Royals pitching staff is taking notes with the proper coaching they’re getting and the starters should thrive here in what has been a very pitcher friendly park in recent years (for whatever reason). Other Pitching Thoughts … Both the Eflin/Crawford and Singer/Kirby games could be ones you can legit consider SP game stacks on. Im hesitant to trust Mitch Keller in B2B good starts and the Brewers have plenty of experience facing him.  Expect him to not make it through 6 IP. Sean Manaea will pitch decent vs the Phillies, but no K and no need for that tonight.  Similar scene for Christopher Sanchez.   ATHLETICS Rooker, Toro, Brown I think I like Oakland WAY too much for a Monday, but they should smash Arrighetti and are dirt cheap, a perfect full…...
