Happy Thursday and Happy September! We’ve got some games sprinkled throughout the day at various start times. The 4-game early slate that starts at 1:10pm ET has a three-hour gap between games, and it possible we won’t have lineups for the two later games when the slate locks. With these being day games after night games, there are likely to be a few unexpected lineups, so if you’re playing this slate, you’ll need to be prepared to be on your toes through the afternoon. The main evening slate is just three games on FD, with an earlier 6:10 start on DK to add a fourth game to that slate. We’ll do the best we can to sort through these short slates.
