Nine games this evening [spacer height=”10px”] WEATHER Here we go, we finally have a weather issue in late September and it is Giants at Rockies in Coors Field with a cold and rainy game. Cross it off. [spacer height=”10px”] Couple guys who are trying to get ready for the playoff run tonight in Luis Severino and Dustin May look really good on paper, but we play on our mobile phones, so obviously we can not be that silly. ROBBIE RAY I’m not too concerned with the last two bad outings from Ray. The Mariners will win tonight and although Oakland is being pesky he should get 7+ strikeouts to offset that one rough inning. DUSTIN MAY Ok, I lied. May is gonna mow down the Diamondbacks today. Just a question of how many betters they truly let him face but on a weak pitching slate he can do just fine on DraftKings. [spacer height=”10px”] WHITE SOX McKenzie against a heavy RHH lineup in a series which clearly has some juice in it as per evidence last night. CARDINALS Snell is good at home but Pujols homers and Goldy/Nado start to wake up here as well.

Eleven (11) MLB games tonight. Heads up that after this Thursday the Dongers Club content will slow down quite a bit until the playoffs with no articles on the weekends. [spacer height=”10px”] WEATHER No expected weather issues tonight [spacer height=”10px”] LUIS CASTILLO Best SP vs Matchup on the board tonight and wont break the bank. Good park for him to work in too. CHARLIE MORTON Tough decision up top tonight between Cortes and Morton, both are fine and both are going to pitch well in an SP2 capacity after Castillo. I think Morton could have a higher strikeout game however. AUSTIN VOTH Orioles got hammered by the Tigers last night, so naturally turn to their “stopper” now in Austin 5 innings Voth. Not expensive but worth a flyer. ADAM WAINWRIGHT My sleeper pick today. [spacer height=”10px”] ANGELS Rengifo, Trout, Ward, Adell BRAVES d’Arnaud, Acuna, Swanson, Olson TWINS Correa, Miranda, Gordon, Sanchez [spacer height=”10px”] CATCHER Travis d’Arnaud Elias Diaz [spacer height=”10px”] FIRST BASE Matt Olson Jose Abreu [spacer height=”10px”] SECOND BASE Luis Rengifo Andres Gimenez [spacer height=”10px”] THIRD BASE Nolan Arenado Josh Jung Gio Urshela [spacer height=”10px”] SHORTSTOP Dansby Swanson Willy Adames Bobby Witt Jr [spacer height=”10px”] OUTFIELD – Mt.

There are SEVEN (7) games for both FanDuel and DraftKings Main MLB DFS slates today. [spacer height=”10px”] WEATHER No expected weather issues tonight [spacer height=”10px”] Max Scherzer (off IL) versus Corbin Burnes is the headline match-up tonight with the Mets still needing lots of wins and the Brewers finally at the point where the clock is starting to tick loudly. Milwaukee is within reach of the Wild Card but I think time is quickly running out on them if they can’t steal this series. All that said, it’s hard for me to want to force in Max with him coming off 16 days rest from an IL stint and I think the Mets will start to wake up offensively going on the road into a park that can be very friendly for their hitters. Lindor is a great contrarian pick tonight and for those reasons I will opt away from these studs. There are some alternative options which makes it easier to pass on them as well. EDWARD CABRERA The Cubs have not done a ton of damage against Change-Up’s and Franmil Reyes little hot streak once he came back to the NL has gone away. With Suzuki likely out again this is a game where Cabrera can give us a big strikeout total for a very reasonable price. KYLE WRIGHT I have gotten Kyle wrong more than I have gotten him Wright this season (hey-yo!) but he’s gotta be very happy to be at home vs Washington today.

After some big hits yesterday we have a 2 game MNF slate tonight. I am curious to see if the NFL moves forward with more MNF double headers in the future as it helps them avoid having a MNF where there is an island disaster game that nobody wants to watch. The other side of […]

Stacks That I Have My Eye On Below I’ll break down the particular stacks I’m interested and delve into it based on matchup, ability, predicted game script, and collective salary while picking an opposing player or two to run that stack back with if appropriate. *Note: All pricing is DraftKings focused Las Vegas Raiders (vs. […]
And we are off and running into Week 2 of the NFL season now. I have a couple take-aways from week 1, but the most relevant one I think was just how little I am trusting the RB position again this season after I thought that would change in week one. That was my biggest […]
