We have a normal Thursday with two slates that are both small. This early one sets up as a classic gamestack SP and hitting slate where you pick really two games to focus on for SP and hitting and then ignore the other two for most builds.
WEATHER
Rain could come into play mid or late game in Chicago, but not enough to PPD it.
BRADY SINGER (DK: $8500)
My Ex. We are back together again. I’m referring to Singer of course here and we get him in a day game with the Mariners in a getaway spot. Singer’s pitching better as he gets some better coaching in Cincinnati, using more pitches and balancing them effectively.
EDWARD CABRERA (DK: $7200)
South Beach Theory and a good spot to consider game stacking pitchers for certain. I know I said stack pitchers, but hey, we’re splitting them up.
ATHLETICS/WHITE SOX
Davis Martin is not good the Athletics should get him early & JP Sears is as automatic for a RH homer as they get once a game.
- Athletics- Butler, Rooker, Bleday, Soderstrom
- White Sox- Vargas, Robert, Vaughn
NATS/PIRATES
Some late fireworks wake up Oneil Cruz last night but I had already locked him in as the top pick on this slate. Pirates might get some life and should murder their former teammate Trevor Williams.
- Nats- Wood, Ruiz, Crews
- Pirates- Cruz, Reynolds, McCutchen
