WEATHER Wind blowing OUT to LCF in Wrigley. Not 20+ mph winds but enough to have an impact. Rays at Royals – This is a big time PPD risk and of course Singer is pitching, the man who hates the rain with a passion — odd considering the dude is from Florida. Four guys make my list tonight and I would say the gap between #1 and #4 is very minimal which is why I am going with a 4th leg here instead of the usual top 3 recommendations. JOSE SORIANO (DK: $7500, FD: $8200) Just picking on Oakland with a sub 8k guy who has been good at managing his pitch count by pounding the zone & is capable of a 30% CSW% on any given day. GRAYSON RODRIGUEZ (DK: $9400, FD: $10,200) Seattle has a bad offense and likely is without a hot Mitch Garver. I love Baltimore tonight, win, offense, and Grayson to give them 6 innings, < 2 ER and 7+ strikeouts. DYLAN CEASE (DK: $10,300, FD: $10,200) Seager avoided major injury and possibly could be alright but even if he is in the lineup I think Cease will handle him and the Rangers offense. There are signs of life from Wyatt Langford and even Adolis Garcia — but one more sleepy night in Texas is not out of the question for a lineup that’s struggled at home all season. UPDATE: Corey Seager officially out as I suspected. Also, the projected rating on Cease went up from < 70 to above 90 with the final Rangers lineup posted. BRADY SINGER (DK: $8200, FD: $9100) PPD risk here but if somehow the weather changes and it looks clear to go then I really think he is a great top play at this price. Given how Tampa swings and misses and the lefties will chase too. YANKEES Alex Verdugo, Gleyber Torres It’s the heart of the order and I do not mean Soto/Judge, I mean the 4-5-6-7 spot of the order that will clean up for the Yankees. PHILLIES / CUBS Trea Turner, Alec Bohm, Brandon Marsh Michael Busch, Cody Bellinger ROCKIES Brenton Doyle, Ezequiel Tovar, Brendan Rodgers, Elias DIaz … Hey look, it’s not Patrick Corbin, nor is it Madison Bumgarner but it’s Dallas Keuchel ladies and gentlemen. You know, all three of those guys at one point were good and two of them…...
