Happy Wednesday! We’ve got a split slate kind of day with a 6-game early slate at 3:05pm ET followed by a 6-game main slate at the usual 7:05pm. Because of the strange timing of things and two doubleheaders in New York, we end up missing both Jacob deGrom and Gerrit Cole from today’s DFS slates. We still have plenty of pitching, but not as much as we almost had.

Early Slate Pitching

For a small slate, we have a lot of good pitching options. I’ll break them into these three buckets:

Aces Or Something Close

Clayton Kershaw vs Giants
Spencer Strider at A’s
Luis Castillo vs White Sox
Patrick Sandoval vs Tigers

Mid-Tier Savings

Domingo German vs Twins
Michael Kopech at Mariners
Alex Cobb at Dodgers
Eric Lauer at Rockies

Cheap Nonsense Children

Louie Varland at Yankees
Ken Waldichuk vs Braves

Three Aces And A Sandoval

Clayton Kershaw vs Giants
Spencer Strider at A’s
Luis Castillo vs White Sox
Patrick Sandoval vs Tigers
