Happy Friday! Well, you had your fun, we can get back to baseball now! We’ve got a 12-game slate tonight, that might turn into an 11-game slate with some unusually bad weather in San Diego. Arizona will be visiting Coors Field for some weekend series chalk, but otherwise, this is a very spread-out slate with muddled tiers on both the pitching and hitting sides.

I want to point out that the deeper we get into September, the more we are starting to see unexpected lineups with rookies finding their ways into lineups, and usually at minimum salary. I’m not going to attempt to guess which teams and players on which days are going to go with funky lineups, but please be sure to stay attentive up until lock, and be prepared to fully shift your lineup builds if we get too many bizarre lineups.

One of the preeminent baseball minds in all of fantasy, Dave Potts (aka CheeseIsGood) has won contests at the highest levels of both season-long and DFS. He is a 2x winner of a $1,000,000 1st-place prize in DFS, having won the 2014 FanDuel baseball Live Final and following that up by taking down a DraftKings Milly Maker Tournament in 2015. In addition, he’s won the Main Event championship in the National Fantasy Baseball Championship and the NFBC Platinum League, which is the highest buy-in entry league. His consistent success in the NFBC tournaments earned him a prestigious spot in their Hall of Fame. Dave can also strum a mean guitar while carrying a tune, and if you’re lucky, you’ll see him do so on one of his MLB Crunch Time appearances. Follow Dave on X – @DavePotts2
