CheeseIsGood's Million Dollar Musings: Friday, April 6th

Is your lineup Premium Approved? In this space, either CheeseIsGood or STLCardinals84 will break down the slate from top-to-bottom like no one else in the industry can – exploring the matchups from every angle, steering you toward the best plays on the day, and helping you become a better and more complete DFS player as you continually expose yourself to the “process” and the “why,” rather than just looking at the “what.” Have a boat? We’ll teach you how to fish.

Friday, April 6th

For the second straight week, we have a watered down Friday night schedule, with just seven games on the Main Slate. There is a little bit of everything, with a few quality pitchers, a few gas cans, a few hitter’s parks and a few pitchers parks. Most every position has something worth considering at every salary level, so you have some flexibility to get in the guys you want to build around.

Before digging into the slate, given how early in the morning it is, I need to start by mentioning that weather could end up playing a big role tonight, and throwing this whole slate into chaos. This article is written as if every game plays cleanly. So, just keep that in mind, and pay attention to Kevin Roth’s weather reports as we get closer to game time so you can adjust accordingly.

Dave Potts (CheeseIsGood)

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
