They were were zero day games today is beyond me but I’ll just stick to double dongs from the Chairman since that’s what I am best at I guess. WEATHER Warm and windy in a few spots most notably it is warm in Minnesota and a little wind and warmth out in Wrigley. Joe Musgrove After a long east coast weekend the Padres return home to the friendly PETCO park for their pitchers. Joe Musgrove has excelled this season at home and will be facing a banged up Nationals team down Schwarber and likely Trea Turner as well. Brandon Woodruff Woodruff would likely be 2nd in the Cy Young voting for the NL right now and that is not anything to be ashamed of. He’s had just one rough start and that was in Coors Field and there’s literally nothing in any splits or in this match-up which one could point too as a reason to not expect another 20+ game tonight. I also like that the Mets are coming off a double header which was a long day yesterday but because of $ I think Musgrove slightly is the edge, but we’re really splitting hairs. Max Fried The Pirates have gone ice cold which is saying alot even by their standards. They did nothing in Coors and as expected did very little vs the Brewers over the weekend, while Fried has now had enough games off the IL to be back into a rythym and should keep the Pirates limited tonight. Good value candidates Wily Peralta, Vladimir Gutierrez Fade Tylor Megill … Milwaukee is gonna be pesky tonight. White Sox Abreu, Anderson, Grandal, Moncada, Sheets It’s hot as heck in Minnesota and the Twins pitching staff gets to start things off with Barely Over the run total tonight. This is heavily contingent upon Moncada/Grandal being in the lineup as I really don’t want to have to ride too many of the Sox average/value guys but if they do sit then Gavin Sheets likely moves back into the #2 hole and is 100% owned. Abreu is the lock in this stack. Phils/Cubs Bryzzo … Segura/Harper Over 80 and over 10 mph wind in Wrigley, a positive combination which is even more positive with Matt Moore and Zach Davies on the hill. The Cubs side is much better on paper here and is powered by Bryzzo…...
