As of writing this, the Chicago Cubs are -163 Vegas favorites to beat the St. Louis Cardinals tonight. I wanted to start there because once the first pitch is thrown, everything is out the window and subject to change. Such a storied rivalry between the Cubs and Cardinals. This season it has been a tale of two fields. The home team has won every meeting so far this season. The Cubs are 5-0 at Wrigley and the Cardinals are 3-0 at Busch Stadium.
This article is for the classic slate beginning at 1 PM EST.
Last night I went 1-1, which brings my two-day total to a shockingly mediocre 2-2. With that said, tonight’s the
So last night I began my undefeated streak in baseball and if you had bet Cleveland ML over New York,
Today’s article is for the main slate of six games starting at 7:15 PM.
Stacks:
Oakland Athletics at TEX (Adrian Sampson)
Matt Chapman (3B), Matt Olson (1B), Khris Davis (OF)
DK: $13600
This game is the second game of a day/night doubleheader. Make sure that all three of these guys are playing in game two. Adrian Sampson is coming off of a fantastic outing but that won’t continue today. You can get these three guys for decent value. This team can put up a lot of runs, so you don’t want to miss out if that is the case today.
Any mother who has ever had a son who played sports has had a debate with them about having to wear an athletic supporter and protective cup. Most boys and men say they aren’t comfortable, they impede their ability to play or they cause a rash to develop because of how hot they are and how much sweat accumulates. Despite the complaints about this protective piece of equipment, it serves a very important purpose. This fact can be attested to first hand by Seattle Mariners Outfielder Mitch Haniger.
These are some games you could look into placing some money on tonight. CLE +102 vs NYY Cleveland just took
Chasing saves is one of the most aggressive pursuits in fantasy baseball. With more teams opting to use their closers in high-leverage situations as opposed to traditional, ninth-inning usage, a common strategy has been to avoid paying for saves. This has made it important to attack the waiver wire or overbid opponents for newly-appointed closers. But what about closers thriving for rebuilding teams, at risk to be moved at the trade deadline for a package of prospects? Fantasy owners must decide whether their closers might become setup relievers when traded to a new team with a deeper bullpen, or if they will receive more save opportunities closing for a contender. Let’s examine the closers that are likely to be moved and assess the benefits for their fantasy value, categorizing each of them as “upgrade” or “downgrade.”
Just like last week below are the best pitching streamers for next week. I actually went with three young guns who have all showed some promise. Not only can these three help you this week but you might want to hold onto them for the future.
A full schedule to dissect for tonight awaits us. The Milwaukee Brewers and Houston Astros are in fine spots and will likely be very popular when targeting offense. The pitching landscape has plenty of good to great options, no clear cut favorite but we can feel fairly confident with a couple aces that are in good spots. You know the drill, we’re going Around the Horn! Giddy up!
Every week we will take a look at the history of one team. You will get some background, iconic players and moments, and postseason results. For this week, let’s take a look at the Miami “Formally Known as Florida” Marlins who have a short but fairly historic history.
