SLATE INTRO Twelve game slate tonight with two games going early and yet another series PPD due to a team getting COVID in South Beach. The Mets and Yankees will be off all weekend, which means the Yankees get yet another break in their schedule as they get time off for guys to heal up. New Series beginning today and we have …. Inter… League… Games… That’s right. This is the trend to keep riding and with the Yankees-Mets getting PPD all weekend there are only two inter-league series as MLB’s obvious schedule this year is to have one inter-league series going on at a time per region.

So many people as writers or subscribers or DFS players in general will look for data reasons to tell them why they should be playing someone. The data could be an optimizer spitting the player out, a rankings on a dashboard, where the player ate his dinner last night, doesn’t matter. Data comes in many forms. But the data you cannot argue with is that Walker Buehler is an ELITE pitcher. I can recite you his statistics from a season ago when he was the best pitcher for the top team in the National League. I can recite you his college statistics when he led Vanderbilt to the College World Series or we can even go back to when he was a young lad…...
