CheeseIsGood's Million Dollar Musings - MLB DFS Strategy: Thursday, May 12th

Happy Thursday everyone! We’ve got a weird little day with a couple small slates to look at. The already sketchy early slate has been made even weaker on DK with the Astros-Twins game being removed from the slate. We’re now dealing with a 3-game ‘main’ early slate on DK followed by a 3-game late slate. As of now, FD has kept the Astros-Twins game on the early slate, giving us a 4-gamer followed by their main slate being a 4-gamer starting at 6:35pm ET.

Early Slate Pitching

I had written this before I went to bed last night, and upon waking, the DK pitching slate has gone from bad to nonsensical nonsense. I’ll leave what I originally had, but add some notes to move some more options into the DK pool.
