It’s a full slate tonight with 13 games at 7:05, 4 games at 8:05 and 3 games at 9:38. Here are my plays of the day in DFS Great Plays Robbie Ray, P, Mariners ($9,800) Alek Manoah, P, Blue Jays ($9,000) Will Smith, C, Dodgers ($5,200) Jose RamÃrez, 3B, Guardians ($5,400) Juan Soto, OF, Nationals ($6,500) Robbie Ray has been one of the best pitchers in baseball the past month…
Line Up Thoughts: I like Luis Severino ($9,200) against the free swinging Reds. He has the potential to go 6 plus innings and punch out 6-8 batters. Zack Wheeler ($9,700) is 8-4 on the season with a 2.46 ERA. He has 104 strikeouts on the season and he faces a Toronto line up that has a lot of swing and miss hitters in its line up. It is also a…
Line Up Rational: I like Carrasco and Cortes today against the free swinging line ups of the Mariners and White Sox. Sure, it’s a warm but both pitchers have good off speed stuff and that deception should keep both line ups in check. Rizzo against a fastball pitcher like Kopech is too good a match up to pass up. Especially at a park like Guaranteed Rate Field. Schoop has struggled…
I love the Yankees, Phillies match up for Yankee hitters that’s why i am playing LeMahieu, Judge and Urshela. A sinker ball pitcher like Jake Arrieta coming off a week off is too good a match up to pass up. Alex Mills and Mike Soroka aren’t power pitchers so the strikeouts won’t be there but the innings and provided they get run support, are positioned to win. Chadwick Tromp has…
Image courtesy of DraftKings I went with the 4:05 games today. I felt I had more options in terms of my line up and getting positive plays. I like Clayton Kershaw making jus first start of the season in Arizona. Sure, the D-Backs line up is potent and ChaseField is a home run park but Kershaw has the kind of stuff that could dominate Arizona’s undisciplined like up. Chris Bassitt…
Image courtesy of DraftKings Line-Up Thoughts: I like Buehler a lot in this match up against the Astros. Houston beat up on Seattle’s pitching this past weekend but none of those starters are even in Buehler’s league. Zach Davies in San Francisco against a below average line up like the Giants is a no brainer. San Diego has hit the ball well out of the gate thus far so you…
Martin Perez makes his Red Sox debut against a soft hitting Orioles line up. A wacky day in terms of starting pitchers but there are several match ups that I like especially from a value standpoint. Here’s my line up for today. P: Lance McCullors, Astros vs. Mariners ($8,500): After almost two years off, McCullors is back and he has a great match up against a limited Mariners line up….
Justin Verlander has a great match up against a strike out happy Seattle line up. The first full night of baseball is upon us. There are some intriguing match ups tonight. Here is my DraftKings DFS line up of the night. SP: Justin Verlander, Astros vs. Mariners $11,400: Verlander struggled with some injuries during spring training but he is fully healthy and a great play tonight against a swing and…
With the 2020 season underway, we examine 10 rookies who could contribute this season and might be worth drafting. Keep in mind. Many of these players saw time last season but did not play a full season. The prospects are not ranked on ability but rather which are most likely to play in the bigs right away and contribute. 1. Luis Robert, OF, White Sox: Robert is a five tool…
Image courtesy of Kirby Lee/USA Today Mookie Betts is widely considered to be one of the top five players in baseball but his numbers will take a slight hit now that he has been traded to the Dodgers. Betts pre season ADP and ranking is reflective of the notion that the move to the Dodgers will effect his production. ESPN and Yahoo both have Betts ranked outside of their top…
