MLB Covering The Bases – Saturday, August 22nd

Happy Saturday, Grinders! We have a fun MLB slate today, and the main slates actually align among all the DFS sites today! Rejoice!

There are just three early games on the slate, and one of them is the first game of a double-header between the Marlins and Nationals. That will be a seven inning game, and Max Scherzer is currently scheduled to pitch for the Nationals. If you are playing that three game slate, just use Scherzer as your SP1 and build from there. The Brewers check in as my favorite offense against the ghost of Derek Holland.
