There are a bunch of hitters banged up today so double check the lineups on who is in. WEATHER All games should be good to go with the roof being CLOSED in Arizona. The only possible delay is Texas at Chicago. This is one of those choose your fighter Mortal Kombat pitching slates in my mind. What I define that as is one where you can really pick from 6-8 guys but likely going off the chalky ones is where you will find a winning pick. TYLOR MEGILL (DK: $8700) … So of course the first guy I mention is likely the chalkiest of them all, but it has to be said. Anytime we get the Marlins on a Main slate with a pitcher that has a pulse we give it consideration. The Marlins managed to get some big hits yesterday but I don’t think it’s sustainable & Megill has been doing well in two brief starts against much better lineups. JACK FLAHERTY (DK: $8500) … The Yankees are not hitting good Fastballs very well. Shit, they didn’t hit anything yesterday & I would argue they always struggle in Detroit it seems. This is probably a spot where Flaherty should be 20%+ owned but may be less because of Max Fried on the other side & I don’t use him until after April 15th at the earliest. Rules are rules… OTHER PITCHING THOUGHTS My Sleeper? Brandon Pfaadt. He’s struggled vs LHH and the Orioles lefties are their better bats right now, but gut says he pitches 7 strong innings today. Shota is gonna Shota. Not many strikeouts. ATHLETICS Lawrence Butler, Shea Langeliers, Tyler Soderstrom We would be very stubourn if we just decided to not admit that this park is playing fantastic for offense. A good deal of this is the Oakland pitching staff not being as good as people wanted them to be, but today we can pick on both sides and maybe the Athletics can make it two in a row in their new temporary stadium. DODGERS / NATS James Wood — Michael Conforto, Max Muncy Can the Nationals take another from the Dodgers and sweep the series? Absolutely they can. Will they? Okay, maybe not, but we get the Nationals who are a REALLY good DFS lineup once again against a RHH and finally on a main slate. Ride the Wood heater who is criminally mis-priced. …...
