WEATHER Seven games on the main slate, no issues with any of them playing tonight. Expect roof to be closed in Toronto, it is chilly up there. Expect roof to be close din Milwaukee, it’s also chilly there. Expect roof to be OPEN in Arizona SPENCER STRIDER Easily the top pitcher on the slate. He will get Jorge Soler to go down swinging on a pitch up around his face in Soler’s first AB as he is feeling good off some good hacks yesterday and wants to hit homers back in Atlanta — he won’t off Strider.

Go heavy on the Diamondbacks to beat up on Brad Keller. Arizona is a decent contact team who should be patient as well and I see getting some walks, steals and long crooked innings. Corbin Carroll projects to have the highest whiff rates here but he also is most likely to come up with the bases loaded. His upside is tremendous. For the Royals, welcome to the Salvy Perez week, he should get hot and with that comes MJ Melendez and Vinnie Pasquantino as the benefactors around him in the lineup. WHITE SOX Benintendi, Vaughn, Jimenez, Grandal I’m on the White Sox all series long. They get Bassitt today, Berrios tomorrow and Kikuchi on Wed. If they can’t start lifting the ball vs these three then just pack it up, send them home and let the Southside mens Softball team…...
