Today’s slate of games is a mixture of matinees and evening games, for this write the focus will be on the evening slate of games. We have five games to build a lineup from with games beginning at 7:10 eastern. Toronto at Boston, N.Y. Mets at Atlanta, Pittsburgh at Chicago Cubs, San Diego at Arizona, and Colorado at San Francisco. Let’s get to it and go Around the Horn!
The baseball season is a grind. It’s every single day. We will approach DFS the same way and be winners at the end of the season even if we have our hot streaks and slumps. Let’s dive in on the plays for today.
No, it doesn’t. I’m totally kidding. Listen, dude. It’s Week 1. I know it’s easy to tell you not to panic when you lost by 100 or dropped 5 spots in your roto rankings, but Week 1 losses hurt and they cut you deep. And no matter how long the season is or how deep you think your team may be, you don’t feel whole for a while. So there is really not much I can tell that you already don’t know. But please remember that everything you are about to read should be prefaced with “I know it’s a small sample size, but” and is simply an observation or highlight of something that is outside the norm compared to a player’s career profile
We’ve been very lucky weather wise so far (knock on wood) and it looks like we will be again on Tuesday night. That paves the way for the nice 10-game slate of games. Let’s take a look at some players in good spots tonight.
Players from Coors Field will be available to plug into your lineups today. Does that mean they are the best options on the board? Mondays can be the worst days ever. That doesn’t mean they have to be bad fantasy days. Let’s start the week off right as we look at some players to target for tonight’s 8-game slate.
With a total of 35 two-start pitchers scheduled for the upcoming slate, Major League Baseball is in full bloom and is putting it’s aces on full display for Week 2. If week 1 has shown us anything, it is that pitching is shaky and never a guarantee. With so many #1 starters struggling in their first outings (with the exception of Max Scherzer and Jacob deGrom) and leaving fantasy owners scratching their heads, most were able to settle down in their second starts and handle their business like we have known them to do (see Blake Snell and Carlos Carrasco). Pitching matchups are subject to change, so make sure to check back before gametime on Monday and before lineups lock:
An all-day slate of 12 games is on the docket for DraftKings today with a few afternoon games sprinkled in so make sure to get your lineups in before lock. My targeted games today are as follows: Dodgers/Rockies at Coors, the Cards hosting the Padres, and the Astros at home to the Athletics. Let’s go Around the Horn!
Selecting starting pitching may be easier to pinpoint for today’s’ slate, for at least your number one anyway. Only a handful of options to choose from so we can open up the wallet for some bats. Without further adieu, let’s go Around the Horn!*note*this write up is for the all-day slate of games which begins at 1:05 eastern.
The baseball season is a grind. It’s every single day. We will approach DFS the same way and be winners at the end of the season even if we have our hot streaks and slumps. Let’s dive in on the plays for today.
The big boys are on the bump. To name a few, Scherzer, Verlander, Sale, and Snell will all be on the hill today. Honestly, this is the kind of day you want to get exposure to a ton of pitching in tournaments. There are so many good ones on the board and it stresses me out way less than yesterday. Running the same exact lineup and switching the pitcher might be a good strategy today. Let’s take a look at some options for tonight’s 10-game main slate.
As always, I will have more money invested into cash game lineups than GPP’s or tournaments. However, the pitching options are scary tonight. Mixing it up in tournaments is always a wise decision. Let’s take a look at some core options for tonight and see if we can win some money.
The season is just getting started and it is my favorite one out of all the major sports. Especially, when it comes to daily fantasy sports. The picks below will be directed mainly towards DraftKings, but feel free to use them wherever you see fit. I may have a good idea about what I’m doing, but I’m not psychic. Play these picks at your own risk or reward.
