CheeseIsGood's Million Dollar Musings: Thursday, July 29th
Happy Thursday! We’ve got games spread throughout the day, which means that we have a variety of different slates depending on what site you’re playing on. The main slate is a 5-gamer starting at the usual 7:05 pm ET. On DK, we’ve got a six-game day slate starting at 12:10 pm, while FD has split things into a 4-game early slate and then a 3-gamer in the afternoon. For content, this is always difficult, but for watching baseball, it’s fantastic to have games on all day long. Let’s start with a quick look at these early slates, and then I’ll be back in a bit with the evening slate breakdown.
